In every person's heart, there is a wound because of you; what heart could withstand the arrow of your gaze?

This profound couplet speaks to the overwhelming and almost destructive power of the beloved's gaze. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that every soul carries a wound in their chest, inflicted by the mere presence or glance of the beloved. It poses a rhetorical question: which heart is strong enough to withstand the arrow of such a gaze? It is a masterful depiction of love that is simultaneously agonizing and irresistible.
