दिखाई दिए यूँ कि बे-ख़ुद किया हमें आप से भी जुदा कर चले
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

You appeared in such a manner that you made me completely lose consciousness of myself, and in departing, you severed me even from my own being.

Explanation

Mir captures the overwhelming, almost mystical impact of catching a single glimpse of the beloved. The sight is so intensely intoxicating that it completely dissolves the lover's sense of self and awareness. In parting, the beloved doesn't just leave behind absence, but leaves the lover fundamentally alienated from their own being.
