या मिरी आह में ही कोई शरर ज़िंदा नहीं
या ज़रा नम अभी तेरे ख़स-ओ-ख़ाशाक में है
Allama Iqbal
Meaning

In this sigh of mine, no mischief remains alive, yet a little moisture still lingers in your moist folds.

Explanation

This couplet is a masterful blend of resignation and yearning. The poet initially states that his sighs no longer hold any spark of life, suggesting deep emotional exhaustion. Yet, the second line shifts the focus entirely: even if the poet is drained, the beloved's presence—represented by the 'moisture' in her thorny courtyard—still holds an irresistible, lingering magic. It's the pain of knowing that even in desolation, the memory of love remains potent.
