सुब्ह चमन में उस को कहीं तकलीफ़-ए-हवा ले आई थी रुख़ से गुल को मोल लिया क़ामत से सर्व ग़ुलाम किया
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

Enthusiastically, the morning garden, how did the breeze bring her such sorrow? She bought the rose with her face and enslaved everyone with her figure.

Explanation

This beautiful couplet describes the irresistible charm of the beloved. The poet says that the morning breeze brought some kind of affliction to her. With just her face, she managed to ensnare the flower (the beloved's beauty), and with her mere presence, she made everyone completely captive. It speaks of a captivating beauty that is both delicate and overwhelmingly powerful.
