in ablon se paanv ke ghabra gaya tha main ji khush hua hai raah ko pur-khar dekh kar this couplet presents a psychological paradox common in classical urdu poetry. the traveler is tired of the nagging, dull pain of his blisters and actually finds relief in seeing thorns ahead. he rejoices because the thorns will pierce the blisters, draining them and curing the irritation, suggesting that in the path of love, greater hardships are often the cure for lesser pains.
