The pangs of sorrow melt from the heart, and lamps shine bright like stains.

This profound couplet speaks to the inescapable nature of the heart's secrets. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the schemes and pains hidden within the heart cannot remain concealed; they are revealed freely. Furthermore, the stains (or scars) of pain burn perpetually, much like a burning lamp. It is a beautiful, melancholic depiction of how emotions, once felt, leave an indelible and painful mark that constantly glows.
