गए दिन कि तन्हा था मैं अंजुमन में
यहाँ अब मिरे राज़-दाँ और भी हैं
— Allama Iqbal
Meaning
The days when I was alone in the gathering are gone; now there are even more secrets of mine here.
Explanation
This couplet speaks to the bittersweet reality of changing times and shifting friendships. The poet, Allama Iqbal, reflects on a time when his solitude in a gathering was a private, sacred space. Now, that privacy is gone. The 'raaz-daan' (confidantes) are no longer just one or two; there are many. It's a poignant observation about how social circles evolve, sometimes taking away the quiet intimacy we once cherished.
