MiT Ga.e Dil Se Naqsh-e-batil Sab — Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
All false impressions have vanished from my heart, and you have firmly established your own image in their place.
Explanation
Think of the heart as an old slate cluttered with illusions, doubts, and fleeting desires—what the poet calls 'naqsh-e-baatil'. When the true beloved arrives, whether in divine faith or earthly devotion, those false sketches vanish entirely. In their place, the beloved leaves an indelible imprint, capturing how profound love cleanses the soul of all distractions and claims total, permanent residence.
