Mujhe To Us Pe Nihayat Hi Rashk Aata Ho — Nazeer Akbarabadi
Meaning
I feel intense envy towards the one whose hands have sewn the garment fitted to your body.
Explanation
In this couplet, the poet confesses a deep pang of envy. He says he would feel intense jealousy toward the one whose hands got to touch and stitch a garment meant for the beloved's body. Just imagine, even the tailor who sewed the dress is lucky, because that clothing will embrace the beloved. The poet longs for that closeness himself, and so he envies anyone, or anything, that comes near the beloved. It's a tender, slightly playful way of expressing just how much he treasures every small thing connected to the one he loves.
