Karta Hum Mai Jo Nale Sar-anjam Bagh Mein — Mir Taqi Mir
करता हूँ मैं जो नाले सर-अंजाम बाग़ में
मुँह देखो फिर करेंगे हम आवाज़ मेरे बा'द
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
The deeds I do in the garden, from start to finish, look, after I've gone, we will call out my name again.
Explanation
This couplet is a profound statement of self-worth and resilience. Mir Taqi Mir tells us that no matter how winding or unknown the path of life (the 'baagh') may seem, he will navigate it with determination. The second line is a challenge to the observer: just watch me, because my presence is so impactful that even after I leave, my voice, my legacy, will continue to resonate!
