इस से ज़्यादा कोई ख़सारत है
हाथ अपने से इश्क़ को देना
— Khwaja Ruknuddin Ishq
Meaning
Could there be any loss greater than giving up or losing love by one's own hands?
Explanation
This couplet speaks to the unbearable ache of self-inflicted regret. Losing love to fate or harsh circumstances hurts, but willingly letting it slip away by your own choices leaves a far deeper wound. The poet wonders if any tragedy in life could ever match the sheer heartbreak of surrendering one's greatest treasure with one's own hands.
