Go Tavajjoh Se Zamaane Ki Jahaan Mein Mujh Ko / Jaah-o-sarvat Ka — Mir Taqi Mir
गो तवज्जोह से ज़माने की जहाँ में मुझ को
जाह-ओ-सर्वत का मयस्सर सर-ओ-सामाँ न हुआ
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
O, grant me the grace to live in the world, but I have not attained any means of worldly glory or wealth.
Explanation
This couplet speaks to the universal pain of unfulfilled potential. Mir Taqi Mir feels that despite his efforts, he never received the recognition or favor needed to achieve lasting fame and wealth in the world. It's a profound lament—a realization that true value often goes unseen, and that the struggle for worldly success is heartbreakingly difficult.
