Ishq Dar-parda Phunkta Hai Aag — Dagh Dehlvi
इश्क़ दर-पर्दा फूँकता है आग
ये जलाना नज़र नहीं आता
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
Love secretly stokes a fire from behind the veil, and this burning remains unseen to everyone.
Explanation
This couplet captures the quiet, invisible torment of true passion. Love is imagined here as a discreet arsonist working from behind a veil, softly kindling a blaze that consumes a person entirely from within. Because this fire produces neither smoke nor outward flames, the world sees nothing, even as the heart is silently turned to ashes.
