बे-सुतूँ खोदे से किया आख़िर हुए सब कार-ए-इश्क़ ब'अद-अज़ाँ ऐ कोहकन सर है तिरा और संग है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

From the depths of my unawakened state, all these deeds of love were accomplished; After the call to prayer, your head is mine, and I am with you.

Explanation

This profound couplet by Mir Taqi Mir speaks of the unexpected completion of the journey of love.
