मूए तो हम पे दिल पर को ख़ूब ख़ाली कर हज़ार शुक्र कसो से हमें गिला न रहा
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

Though you emptied our heart with your love, do not complain to us with a thousand grievances.

Explanation

This powerful couplet speaks to the ultimate depth of unshared sorrow. The poet tells the beloved that they can take everything from the speaker's heart—emptying it completely. Yet, despite this immense pain, the speaker cannot complain to a thousand people. It suggests a suffering so profound that the burden must be carried in silence, making the pain intensely personal and isolating.
