Guzar Jaan Se Aur Dar Kuch Nahin — Mir Taqi Mir

गुज़र जान से और डर कुछ नहीं रह-ए-इश्क़ में फिर ख़तर कुछ नहीं
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

There is no fear left, except the fear of departing; on the path of love, there is no danger.

Explanation

This couplet is a profound declaration of devotion. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the mere act of passing through life's struggles or physical existence is nothing to fear. Compared to the terrifying, all-consuming depths of true love (Ishq), life's difficulties seem trivial. It elevates love to a realm where fear itself loses its meaning, implying that the risk of love is the only risk worth taking.
