Ji Daha Jae Hai Sahar Se Ah — Mir Taqi Mir

जी ढहा जाए है सहर से आह रात गुज़रेगी किस ख़राबी से
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

The Shayar asks how the morning will emerge from the night's pain, and how this night will pass through such deep despair.

Explanation

This couplet beautifully captures the agony of waiting. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the dawn itself seems to collapse with a sigh of sorrow. The poet asks a profound question: how will the remaining hours of the night pass? It’s not just about time passing; it's about the unbearable emotional weight and the struggle to endure the transition from darkness to a painful, yet inevitable, light.
