बे-ज़री का न कर गिला ग़ाफ़िल रह तसल्ली कि यूँ मुक़द्दर था
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

Do not lament the lack of embellishment, unaware one; be content that such was your fate.

Explanation

This couplet is a profound meditation on acceptance and fate. Mir Taqi Mir advises the listener not to complain about the simplicity or lack of adornment in life's circumstances. Instead, he urges one to find solace and contentment—to be satisfied—that whatever happened was merely the decree of destiny. It is a beautiful reminder that true peace comes not from what we desire, but from accepting what is given.
