बज़्म-ए-याराँ से फिरी बाद-ए-बहारी मायूस एक सर भी उसे आमादा-ए-सौदा न मिला
— Akbar Allahabadi
Meaning

The spring breeze returned disappointed from the gathering of friends, as it did not find a single head ready for the madness of passion.

Explanation

In Urdu poetry, the spring breeze is more than just pleasant weather—it is a mischievous spark meant to awaken wild passion and the beautiful madness of love. Here, the poet paints a touching picture of disappointment: the breeze visits a gathering of friends hoping to stir their hearts, but leaves crestfallen. Everyone has grown so cautious and worldly that no one is willing to surrender their reason and dare to be truly in love.
