छा गया आंखो में नशा भर गया दिल में दुख ग़म नहीं गर्मी से ख़ाली जाम-ओ-मीना हो गया
— Shah Turab Ali Qalandar
Meaning

Intoxication has clouded the eyes and sorrow has filled the heart, so there is no sorrow if the cup and wine-flask have emptied due to the heat.

Explanation

In this couplet, the poet captures a bittersweet state where dazed intoxication and deep heartache coexist. The burning heat of emotional fervor and grief has completely drained the cup and the flask dry. Yet, there is a quiet, beautiful acceptance here—no regret remains, because the soul surrendered completely to the intensity of the experience.
