I remained at the threshold of the garden wall for a long time, but my voice only reached the ears of the flowers.

This couplet paints a beautiful picture of longing and devotion. Mir Taqi Mir describes himself waiting for a long time at the gate, hidden behind the garden wall. He was so engrossed in his feelings that he whispered his secrets and whispers to the flowers. It speaks to a deep, almost desperate, yearning for connection, suggesting that the poet's emotions were so vibrant that even the inanimate nature around him—the flowers—could hear his heart's whispers.
