निगाह-ए-गर्म कि शेरों के जिस से होश उड़ जाएँ
न आह-ए-सर्द कि है गोसफ़ंदी ओ मेशी
— Allama Iqbal
Meaning
It is the matter of the warm gaze that makes one's senses fly away, not the sigh of coldness that is the bed of the grave.
Explanation
This powerful couplet by Allama Iqbal beautifully captures the devastating effect of true passion. The poet says that it's not the cold, comforting sigh that breaks a heart, but the 'hot glance'—a single look that steals one's senses. This glance holds such intense power that it can shatter composure. It emphasizes that emotional impact comes not from gentle comfort, but from intense, overwhelming connection.
