There is an intoxication even in knowledge, but this is a paradise where there are no celestial nymphs.

This couplet explores the unique intoxication found in deep knowledge. The poet acknowledges that learning itself provides a profound ecstasy, a kind of spiritual bliss. However, he makes a striking observation: this paradise of intellect, while beautiful, lacks the physical, sensual beauty (the 'hoor') often associated with heavenly pleasures. It's a powerful statement about prioritizing the sublime beauty of wisdom over mere physical attraction.
