गर कुछ हो दर्द आईना यूँ चर्ख़-ए-ज़िश्त में
इन सूरतों को सिर्फ़ करे ख़ाक-ओ-ख़िश्त में
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
If any pain occurs, in the mirror of the wheel of life, these faces will only be reduced to dust and ashes.
Explanation
Mir Taqi Mir here presents a profound meditation on suffering. He suggests that emotional pain is not a static wound, but a mirror reflecting the chaos of life's wheel. And the beauty of our faces, our very existence, is so fragile that only the ultimate elements—dust and ashes—can truly reduce them to nothing. It’s a powerful reminder that even our greatest joys and sorrows are transient.
