कुछ ताज़गी हो लज़्ज़त-ए-आज़ार के लिए हर दम मुझे तलाश नए आसमाँ की है
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning

So that there may be some freshness in the pleasure of pain, I am in search of a new sky at every moment.

Explanation

In the tradition of Urdu ghazal, pain is not merely suffered—it is savored as a source of vitality, a paradoxical concept known here as 'lazzat-e-aazaar' (the relish of suffering). The poet fears that familiar heartaches become dull through repetition, so he constantly yearns for an untried 'new sky' to keep that emotional intensity alive. It is a striking tribute to an unquiet soul that refuses emotional stagnation, actively seeking fresh horizons even if they bring entirely new wounds.
