Those who were once wanderers of madness will settle in the settlements. The bare-foot woman will remain, but a new market will arise.

This profound couplet by Allama Iqbal speaks to the tension between wild freedom and societal structure. It suggests that even those who lived a life of unrestrained passion and madness (junoon) will eventually settle into routine life. However, the poet warns that while the external setting changes—the 'thorny garden' becomes new—the raw, exposed essence of the self ('barhna-paayi') remains untouched. It is a meditation on the inescapable nature of the soul, no matter where it resides.
