मोहब्बत का जब रोज़-बाज़ार होगा
बिकेंगे सर और कम ख़रीदार होगा
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
If love becomes a daily marketplace, heads will be sold, and there will be fewer buyers.
Explanation
Mir Taqi Mir speaks here about the commodification of love. He suggests that if love were reduced to a mere daily market, where emotions and hearts were traded like goods, then perhaps men would sell their pride and dignity. But the deeper sorrow is that even if they did, the buyers—the people willing to truly appreciate and pay for genuine love—would be few. It's a poignant commentary on the devaluation of true affection in modern life.
