ये मंसूर का ख़ून-ए-नाहक़ कि हक़ था
क़यामत को किस किस से ख़ूँदार होगा
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
The blood of Mansur, which was unjust, held rights; From whom will the Day of Judgment draw its blood?
Explanation
This powerful couplet, by Mir Taqi Mir, speaks to the overwhelming nature of injustice. The poet suggests that the blood of Mansoor—blood spilled unjustly—was so significant that even the Day of Judgment (Qayamat) will struggle to cleanse it. It's a profound commentary on the stain of wrongful death and the enduring stain of injustice that time cannot wash away.
