Butam Ke Ishq Ne Be-ikhtiyar Kar Dala / Wo Dil Ki Jis Ka Khudai Me — Mir Taqi Mir
बुताँ के 'इश्क़ ने बे-इख़्तियार कर डाला
वो दिल कि जिस का ख़ुदाई में इख़्तियार रहा
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
The love of Bhutan has rendered me helpless, the heart that once possessed the choice in devotion.
Explanation
This profound couplet speaks to the overwhelming power of divine love. The poet suggests that true love (ishq) has rendered the heart incapable of making choices, even in matters of faith or devotion to God. It's the ultimate surrender—a beautiful paradox where the highest form of love leads to the loss of personal will. It captures the depth of a soul that has given itself entirely to passion.
