Mire Nikale Na Niklegi Aarzu Meri — Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
My desire will not leave merely by my efforts to cast it out, but if you wish to draw it out, it will depart right this instant.
Explanation
In this couplet, the lover confesses their complete helplessness before the beloved's sway. Try as they might, they cannot banish this deep longing from within their heart, for love answers to no self-control. Yet, the moment the beloved wills it, that very desire would depart or yield without a second thought. It is a sweet, tender portrait of total surrender, showing how completely our deepest feelings belong to the one we love.
