Di Badshahi Haq Ne Tujhe Husn-nagar Ki — Wali Dakhani
Meaning
God has granted you sovereignty over the realm of beauty, and I shall declare this to Solomon himself in the land of Iran.
Explanation
The poet showers his beloved with radiant praise, declaring that the Divine has crowned them as the supreme ruler of the kingdom of beauty. He is so utterly enchanted and confident in their splendor that he dares to announce this even to King Solomon, who is legendary for his unmatched majesty and power. It is a delightfully bold, affectionate exaggeration that places the beloved's grace far above all worldly wealth and imperial glory.
