Bin Gul Mua Hi Main To Pa Tu Ja Ke Lautiyo Sehn-e-chaman Mein Ai — Mir Taqi Mir
बिन गुल मुआ ही मैं तो प तू जा के लौटियो
सेहन-ए-चमन में ऐ पर-ए-पर्वाज़ मेरे बा'द
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Without the blossom, I am merely a moth; please return to the garden of my heart, O wing of flight.
Explanation
This couplet is a profound lament on the pain of separation. Mir Taqi Mir says that while he was content even without the beauty of flowers, the moment the beloved departed, the entire garden courtyard felt desolate. The lines address the 'wings of flight'—a metaphorical appeal to the departing lover. It captures that deep, sudden void, where the mere presence of the beloved was the true sustenance of life.
