उम्र भर हम रहे शराबी से
दिल-ए-पुर-ख़ूँ की इक गुलाबी से
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
All my life, I remained with the drunkard, from the heart of the brave, a blush of pink.
Explanation
This couplet speaks to a lifetime spent in emotional intoxication. The speaker says that his entire life has been with the 'sharabi'—the intoxicated one. But this intoxication isn't just alcohol; it represents a passionate, reckless state of being. He compares this state to a 'rosy heart full of blood,' suggesting that his love has always been deeply felt, intensely passionate, and perhaps dangerously consuming. It's a profound reflection on the enduring nature of passion.
