Sab Ne Jaana Kahin Ye Aashiq Hai — Mir Taqi Mir
सब ने जाना कहीं ये आशिक़ है
बह गए अश्क दीदा-ए-नम से
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Everyone knows this is the passion of a lover; tears flowed from eyes moistened by sweet relief.
Explanation
This poignant couplet is a beautiful declaration of the lover's identity. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the sheer act of crying—the tears flowing from moist eyes—is enough proof. To the world, the overflowing tears are a visible sign that the wearer of the heart is, indeed, an Aashiq (lover). It's a profound statement that emotion, when visible, speaks louder than any word.
