دردمند عشق را دارو بجز دیدار نیست

Brief Explanation:
True lovers find relief from affliction only in the presence of the Beloved.
Background:
This is from one of the controversial poems of hazrat Amir Khusrau indicating his choice of a religion of Love over all forms of formal religions, and also his indifference to the reaction of the common folk to his choice. Although Amir Khusrau is extremely well known as a Sufi and a pious person, it is often seen that he would use shocking terminology to promote the idea of love, prioritizing it over other aspects of religion.
