Describe a line (or a few words) that you remember from a poem or song IELTS Cue Card

You should say:

• What is it?
• Which song or poem it is from
• How you knew it
• And explain how you feel about it
• 
  

1. What is it?

The line I remember is: "You only need the light when it’s burning low."

2. Which song or poem it is from

This line is from the song "Let Her Go" by Passenger. It’s a heartfelt acoustic ballad that became quite popular worldwide.

3. How you knew it

I first heard this song on the radio a few years ago while traveling. Its soft melody caught my attention, but it was the lyrics that really stayed with me. I later looked up the full lyrics and even added it to my playlist.

4. And explain how you feel about it

This line really resonates with me because it captures a deep truth about human nature—we often don’t appreciate what we have until it’s gone. It’s simple yet powerful, and every time I hear it, I’m reminded to value the people and moments in my life before they become memories.
