आँखों ने दिखा दी जो तिरे ग़म की हक़ीक़त आलम मुझे सारा तह-ओ-बाला नज़र आया
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning

When my eyes revealed the reality of your sorrow, the entire world appeared upside down to me.

Explanation

When profound sorrow touches the soul, it doesn't just cause pain—it fundamentally transforms how we perceive reality. The poet feels the true weight of the beloved's grief so intensely that the entire universe suddenly seems turned upside down, shaken to its very core. It is a tender reflection on how deep love and devastating sadness can dismantle our familiar world and make everything appear topsy-turvy.
