According to the book "Legislative Theatre" by Augusto Boal, the phrase is from a first century AD Sanskrit writing. It is also called a Sanskrit proverb by a few internet sources. You can find them by searching for "in the river of desire" or "on the river of desire", instead of "along the river of desire". According to Augusto Boal, the "river of desire" is a necessary part of human existence, and "love" is a dangerous part of that.

"Love is a crocodile along the river of desire" can be interpreted as a metaphor to describe the dangerous and unpredictable nature of love in the midst of strong emotions and desires. Just like how a crocodile can strike unexpectedly, love can bring both joy and pain, and it requires caution and awareness to navigate through its complexities.
