Kaun Sa Dil Hai Jis Men Dagh Nahin — Dagh Dehlvi
कौन सा दिल है जिस में 'दाग़' नहीं
इश्क़ में यादगार हम भी हैं
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
Which heart is there that does not bear a wound or scar? In the realm of love, we too exist as a lasting keepsake.
Explanation
In this wonderfully witty couplet, Daagh plays on his own pen name, which literally means a 'scar' or 'wound.' He warmly asks, is there any heart that has known love and hasn't been bruised by it? By playfully intertwining his identity with the universal ache of heartbreak, he claims an eternal place in every lover's chest as an unforgettable monument to love itself.
