बोसा-ए-लब दिल-ए-शिकस्ता को
मोम्याई नहीं तो फिर क्या है
— Bahadur Shah Zafar
Meaning
For a broken heart, a kiss on the lips is surely like a healing balm; if it is not a cure, then what else could it be?
Explanation
In traditional lore, 'momyai' was a miraculous balm reputed to mend shattered bones instantly. The poet warmly muses that for a broken heart, a tender kiss from the beloved serves as this very cure. It beautifully elevates affection from a mere romantic gesture into a soul-healing medicine capable of stitching a broken spirit back together.
