Us Se Aankhon Ko Mila Jee Mein Rahe Kyunkar Taab / — Mir Taqi Mir

उस से आँखों को मिला जी में रहे क्यूँकर ताब चश्म-ए-ए'जाज़-ए-मिज़ा सहर-ए-निगह-ए-अफ़्सूँ है
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

From him, whose eyes captivate mine, what remaining desire or excitement is there? His gaze of wondrous grace is like the morning of enchantment.

Explanation

Mir Taqi Mir beautifully captures the intoxicating power of a beloved's gaze. The poet questions the courage required just to meet those eyes, implying that the gaze itself is not merely a look, but a magical mirror ('A'jaz-e-miza') that reflects the dawn of enchantment ('Sahar-e-nigahe-afsoon'). It speaks to a surrender to beauty, where the lover is lost in the magic of the glance.
