What is the archive's and what is not. The Urdu text is quoted verbatim from Mukhtār Ashʿār — Intikhāb-e Dīwān-e Mīr Taqī Mīr Akbarābādī, jild 1, ed. ʿAlī Ḥaidar Ṭabāṭabāʾī (1909), p. 3. Each word's meaning is cited to the dictionary page it was read at. The Roman transliteration is the archive's own and has not yet had a native reader's pass — tap any word to see exactly what is cited and what is not.
