Yaarb, Reh-e-talab Mein Koi Kab Talak Phire — Mir Taqi Mir

यारब रह-ए-तलब में कोई कब तलक फिरे तस्कीन दे कि बैठ रहूँ पाँव गाड़ कर
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

Friend, how long must I wander in this quest for your pleasure? Grant some solace, so that I may sit down and rest.

Explanation

This profound couplet captures the exhaustion of the seeker. Mir Taqi Mir is asking, 'Until when must one wander this path of desire and yearning?' It’s not just about physical travel; it’s about the emotional fatigue of continuous pursuit. He begs for a moment of peace, a place to sit down and finally rest his weary soul. It is a universal cry for respite from the endless chase of life.
