न होता हुस्न में यारो अगर जज़्ब तो रंज-ए-इश्क़ भी आसाँ न होता
— Khwaja Ruknuddin Ishq
Meaning

Friends, if beauty did not have the power of attraction, the pain of love would not have been easy to bear.

Explanation

The poet shares an intimate reflection with his friends on the sweet paradox of love: heartbreak is agonizing, yet we carry it willingly. 'Jazb' refers to the magnetic, captivating charm of beauty that draws the soul in so deeply that even suffering loses its bitterness. It is this sheer enchantment of the beloved that softens the ache of passion, turning what should be unbearable pain into something bearable and profound.
