{11,6}

apnii to jahaa;N aa;Nkh la;Rii phir vahii;N dekho
aa))iine ko lapkaa hai pareshaa;N-na:zarii kaa

1) where your eye made contact-- look then/again right there
2) the mirror has an addiction to 'scattered/dispersed gazing'

 

Notes:

lapkaa : 'A bound forward (in order to snatch); a snatch; --nimbleness, &c. (= lapak ); --a bad habit; a vitiated taste'. (Platts p.950)

*Platts Dictionary Online*

S. R. Faruqi:

Another aspect of this theme, Bedil has expressed very finely [in Persian]:

The wonder of the garden is not a fellow-traveler with the flower
The mirror departs from itself [with the sight of the glory], and the glory remains established [within it].
[in the same way, even if the flower would depart, the wonder of the garden remains]

In contrast to Bedil, Mir has often described the mirror as having a 'scattered gaze'. For example, in {807,2}:

aa))ine kii mashhuur pareshaa;N-na:zarii hai
tuu saadah hai aiso;N ko nah diidaar diyaa kar

[the 'scattered gazing' of the mirror is famous
you're naive-- don't keep giving such ones a sight of you!]

See also the lapkaa verses by Atish and Hali in {43,1}. Shah Nasir has taken over Mir's whole second line. The only difference is that he has changed the word order to make it fit his meter. From the point of view of wordplay, Shah Nasir's verse too is very fine:

aa))iine ko hai pareshaa;N-na:zarii kaa lapkaa
aur hotii hai myaa;N chashm-e muravvat dekho

[the mirror has an addiction to 'scattered gazing'
look, friend-- the 'glance of kindness' is different]

The mirror's 'scattered' or 'dispersed' gazing is a sign of fickleness or lack of discretion, or even of the kind of disturbance or agitation that would more properly characterize a human lover. On this pretext, the speaker urges the beloved to look away from the mirror, to look back again to where she had previously made eye contact-- that is, of course, to look at the speaker himself.
