Aaya Tha Kabhu Yaar So Maamool Hum Us Ke / Bistar Pe Gire Rehte Hain — Mir Taqi Mir
आया था कभू यार सो मामूल हम उस के
बिस्तर पे गिरे रहते हैं बीमार से अब तक
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
When the beloved once came, we were merely like that, / Lying sick on his bed, ever since.
Explanation
This profound couplet speaks to the enduring nature of emotional dependency. Mir Taqi Mir is saying that once, the visits of his beloved were a predictable, routine part of his life. But since that time, he has remained confined to the bed, perpetually unwell. It's not just physical sickness; it's the emotional illness—the deep, lingering ache of love that never leaves you.
