Us Ka Khiram Dekh Ke Jaaya Na Jaaega — Mir Taqi Mir

उस का ख़िराम देख के जाया न जाएगा ऐ कब्क फिर बहाल भी आया न जाएगा
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

Seeing his beauty, he will not leave; O friend, even the return will not come.

Explanation

This couplet speaks to the irreversible power of enchantment and love. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that once one beholds the profound charm (khiraam) of the beloved, leaving is impossible. The magic is too strong. Furthermore, even if the initial passion subsides, one cannot simply return to their previous, ordinary state. It captures the eternal state of being lost in love, a beautiful and inescapable fate.
