Vo Sanam Jab Suun Basa Dida-e-hairan Men Aa — Wali Dakhani
Meaning
Ever since that beloved came to dwell in my wonder-struck eyes, the fire of love has consumed the entire storehouse of my intellect.
Explanation
The poet shares that the moment their mesmerizing beloved settled into their wide, wonder-struck eyes, the fierce fire of love swept in and burned down the entire storehouse of reason. Love and intellect are shown as fierce rivals here—reason builds orderly worldly logic, but intense passion reduces all that calculation to ashes in a heartbeat. It beautifully captures that overwhelming surrender of falling in love, where rational thought simply vanishes and the heart takes absolute control.
