محبت میں نہیں ہے فرق جینے اور مرنے کا | اسی کو دیکھ کر جیتے ہیں، جسے دیکھ کر مر جائیں
Mohabbat mein nahin hai farq jeene aur marne ka | Usi ko dekh kar jeete hain, jise dekh kar mar jayein.
In love, there is no difference between living and dying; we live by seeing the one, for whom we would die at the sight.
— Mirza Ghalib, Diwan-e-Ghalib
