Dil Men Rakhne Ki Baat Hai Gham-e-ishq — Dagh Dehlvi

दिल में रखने की बात है ग़म-ए-इश्क़ इस को हरगिज़ न बरमला कहिए
— Dagh Dehlvi

Meaning

The sorrow of love is meant to be kept hidden within the heart; it should never be spoken of openly.

Explanation

This couplet speaks to the sacred privacy and dignity of heartache. In the tradition of Urdu poetry, the sorrow of love isn't meant for public display or pity; it is an intimate treasure to be quietly cherished inside the heart. Revealing it openly cheapens its purity, suggesting that bearing love's pain in graceful silence is the truest mark of devotion.
