कूचा-ए-यार ऐन कासी है जोगी-ए-दिल वहाँ का बासी है
— Wali Dakhani
Meaning

The beloved's lane is truly Kashi itself, and the yogi of my heart is a dweller of that very place.

Explanation

Here, the poet beautifully bridges love and spirituality by declaring the beloved’s lane to be as sacred as the holy city of Kashi. The heart is imagined as an ascetic yogi who has abandoned all worldly attachments just to reside permanently in this holy space. It captures that sweet devotion where love itself becomes the highest pilgrimage, and the beloved's doorstep is a divine sanctuary.
