This path is the torrent of events, baseless in time; in this ruin, do not intend to build up (or restore).

This profound couplet speaks to the acceptance of life's inevitable chaos. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the path we walk is merely a flow of unpredictable calamities, lacking any foundation in this age. Therefore, when everything is in a state of ruin, one should not try to force a reconstruction or impose order. It is a plea to accept the natural, messy rhythm of existence.
