जिस दिन कि उस के मुँह से बुर्क़ा उठेगा सुनियो
उस रोज़ से जहाँ में ख़ुर्शीद फिर न झाँका
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
On the day the veil lifts from her lips, listen well, from that day, the sun will never shine upon the world.
Explanation
This couplet is a powerful declaration of emotional dependency. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the beloved's words—the moment the veil (burqa) lifts from her mouth—will be so devastatingly impactful that the entire world loses its light. The sun, symbolizing life, joy, and existence itself, will never shine again. It speaks to a love that is absolute, where the mere utterance of a few words can change the cosmic order.
