इस पे तकिया किया तो था लेकिन
रात-दिन हम थे और बिस्तर था
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
If I had placed a pillow on this, it would have been, but we were there day and night, and the bed was there.
Explanation
This couplet beautifully captures the overwhelming nature of deep attachment. It suggests that while the poet initially made a small effort—placing a pillow on something—the reality was that the relationship, the memories, and the beloved's presence were constantly surrounding him, day and night. It speaks to an inescapable devotion, where the habit of love becomes as constant as breathing.
