Masti Se Darhami Hai Miri Guftugu Ke Biich — Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
There is disorder and confusion in my speech due to intoxication; you too may say whatever you like to me, for I am drunk.
Explanation
The poet playfully admits that his speech has lost its order, unraveling in a state of sheer ecstasy—be it from wine or the overpowering intoxication of love. He lets go of all pride and gives the beloved free rein to scold or tease him however they wish. There is a tender, liberating honesty here; when you are completely drenched in feeling, the careful etiquette of the sober world no longer matters.
