Afsos Mere Murde Par Itna Na Kar Ki Ab — Mir Taqi Mir
अफ़्सोस मेरे मुर्दे पर इतना न कर कि अब
पछताना यूँ ही सा है जो होना था हो चुका
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Don't grieve for me so much that I now have to regret what was meant to happen, has already happened.
Explanation
This profound couplet speaks to the inescapable truth of fate and the futility of regret. Mir Taqi Mir tells us that dwelling on 'what ifs' or mourning losses is pointless, because the things that were meant to happen, have already transpired. It’s a powerful reminder to accept the path of life, realizing that sorrow is simply the echo of moments that are already gone.
