सौ गाली एक चश्मक इतना सुलूक तो है औबाश ख़ाना जंग उस ख़ुश-चश्म बद-ज़बाँ का
Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

For such sweet demeanor, a single abusive glance is enough; this disgrace belongs to that charming, foul-mouthed one.

Explanation

This profound couplet offers a cynical yet witty observation on the nature of human behavior. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the charming, yet foul-mouthed, person's behavior ('suluq') is incredibly cheap and easily bought. The poet implies that a mere handful of abuses and a small drink (a 'chashmak') are enough to manipulate or change the temperament of even the most unpredictable soul. It’s a commentary on how easily affection and devotion can be bought or sold in the world.
