रह-ए-वफ़ा में इक ऐसा मक़ाम भी आया कि हम ख़ुद अपनी तरफ़ से भी बद-गुमाँ गुज़रे
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning

On the path of loyalty, there came a point where we grew doubtful and suspicious even of ourselves.

Explanation

Love usually tests us through the indifference of the beloved or the cruelty of the world, but here the poet speaks of an even more terrifying turning point. The emotional trial along this path grew so overwhelming that he began to distrust his own sincerity, questioning whether his devotion was pure or just an illusion. It is a tender, vulnerable confession about that phase in love where the fiercest struggle is not with someone else, but with your own fragile heart.
