In the tales of the world, 'Mir' has heard many stories; do not take your goat on those fables.

This profound couplet is a warning about the nature of fame and reputation. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that while his life and stories have become common knowledge—they are 'heard a lot'—they should not be taken at face value. He asks the listener not to pay heed to these 'legends' (fasanon). It is a masterful piece of humility and wisdom, cautioning the audience against judging a person's reality solely based on the grandeur of their public myth.
