It's mean "There is no point in NOT singing about love", i.e. love is one thing only about that is point to sing. But if you heard this sing (verse) only and does not read it, there is variants "Mne o lyubvi ne stoit pet". It's mean "I have not point to sing about love" (most probably) or "There is not point to singing for me about love" (least probably), depending of all verse context.
