चलिए आशिक़ का जनाज़ा उट्ठा आप बैठे हुए क्या करते हैं
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning

Come along, the lover's funeral procession has begun; what are you still doing sitting there?

Explanation

This couplet carries a poignant, gentle reproach aimed squarely at an indifferent beloved. The devoted lover has finally died of longing, and as the funeral procession begins to move, the beloved is urged to rise and witness the final outcome of their neglect. It turns a heartbreaking farewell into a quiet confrontation, asking whether cold apathy can still survive in the face of ultimate sacrifice.
