इस मंज़िल-ए-जहाँ के बाशिंदे रफ़तनी हैं
हर इक के हाँ सफ़र का सामान हो रहा है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
The inhabitants of this world are restless, and every single one is preparing for a journey.
Explanation
This profound couplet speaks to the universal truth of impermanence. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the inhabitants of this world are inherently restless, constantly in a state of transition. The 'journey' he refers to is not a physical trip, but the ultimate journey of life—the preparation for death. It’s a poignant reminder that every single soul is always packing for their final departure.
