करते हैं कार-ए-फ़रहाद आसाँ ज़मीन में भी मुश्किल-पसंद हैं हम मुश्किल को ढूँडते हैं
— Nazm Tabatabai
Meaning

We make Farhad's arduous task seem easy even on plain ground; we are fond of hardships and constantly seek out difficulties.

Explanation

Farhad is legendary in Urdu lore for carving a canal through a rocky mountain to prove his love—the ultimate symbol of an impossible task. Here, the poet proudly declares that even on level ground and easy terrain, he would willingly invent such monumental labor. For a deeply passionate heart, ease is utterly boring; the real joy of living lies in seeking out life's hardest tests.
