Jahan Ko Fitne Se Khali Kabu Nahin Paya — Mir Taqi Mir
जहाँ को फ़ित्ने से ख़ाली कभू नहीं पाया
हमारे वक़्त में तो आफ़त ज़माना हुआ
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Since any place could never be free from tribulation, in our time, the era itself has become a calamity.
Explanation
This profound couplet speaks to the universal nature of human suffering and societal turmoil. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that peace and tranquility have never existed anywhere on earth. Our current era, therefore, is not just one of trouble, but an epoch defined by continuous disaster. It is a powerful reflection on the cyclical nature of human strife, reminding us that hardship seems to be the only constant.
