जो घर में पूछे कोई ख़ौफ़ क्या है कह देना चले गए थे टहलते हुए किसी की तरफ़
— Akbar Allahabadi
Meaning

If someone at home asks about it, there is no need to fear; just tell them that we had simply wandered off for a stroll towards someone.

Explanation

This couplet captures the tender courage and gentle conspiracy of love, where secrecy blends with sweet nonchalance. The speaker reassures their beloved not to panic if people back home question their absence—love is nothing to be terrified of. Masking a deliberate, magnetic pull toward each other as just an aimless, casual evening stroll beautifully shows how affection makes the most daring steps feel effortless and calm.
