इश्क़ से पैदा नवा-ए-ज़िंदगी में ज़ेर-ओ-बम
इश्क़ से मिट्टी की तस्वीरों में सोज़-ए-दम-ब-दम
Allama Iqbal
Meaning

From love, in the blossoming life, the turmoil and dust; from love, in the earthen pictures, the burning breath forever.

Explanation

This couplet beautifully captures the agonizing paradox of love. Allama Iqbal suggests that the very creation of a new life, a fresh melody, is inevitably surrounded by danger and turmoil because of love. Furthermore, the memories of that love—those mere 'earthen pictures'—are not sources of comfort, but rather perpetual flames, burning the soul with an unending pain. It is a profound meditation on how beauty and suffering are inseparable aspects of the heart's journey.
