mat karo shama koon badnaam
jalaati woh naheen

the moths themselves
are eager to be consumed

unhen ye fikr hai har dam
nayi tarz-e-jafaa kya hai
hamein ye shauq hai
dekhen sitam ki intehaa kya hai

inventing new methods of cruelty
while we are passionately keen
to see the limits of their tyranny

nigaah-e-shauq sar-e-bazm
behijaab na ho
woh bekhabar hi sahi
itne bekhabar bhi naheen
let the gaze of desire remain
veiled in the heart of the gathering
even if (s)he seems unaware
(s)he is not that unaware

ham ne bura bhala hi sahi
kaam to kiya
tum ko to etiraaz hi
karne ka shauq tha
we may have done good or bad
at least we did something
you, however, were only
fond of raising objections

manzilen paanv pakadti hain
Thaharne ke liye
shauq kahta hai ki
do chaar qadam aur sahi
destinations beg me
to take a break
but passion says
just a few more steps

shauq chaDhtii dhoop
jaataa waqt ghaTtii chaanv hai
baa-wafaa jo aaj hain
kal bewafa ho jaayenge
passion is like the rising sun
and with time, the shade diminishes
those who are loyal today
will become disloyal tomorrow

mashrab nahin ye mera ki
poojoon buuton ko main
shauq-e-talab ne dil ko
sanam-khaana kar diya
my religion is not
one of worshiping idols
my passion for seeking has
turned my heart into a temple

us lab se mil hi jaayega
bosa kabhi to haan
shauq-e-fuzool-o-
jurat-e-rindaana chaahiye
from those lips, am sure
to get a kiss one day
just needs pointless passion
and careless courage

9 / 14: shauq
ye qayaam kaisa hai raah mein
tere zauq-o-shauq ko kya hua
abhi chaar kaanTe chhube nahin
tere sab iraade badal gaye?
how come this stalling in the path?
what happened to your will and zeal?
not even four thorns have pricked you
and all your intentions have changed?

maana ki teri deed ke
kaabil nahin hoon main
tu mera shauq dekh
mera intezaar dekh
understand i am not
worthy of your attention
but look at my passion
and at my patience

bojh uThana shauq kahaan hai
majboori ka sauda hai
rahte rahte station par
log coolie ho jaate hain
bearing burdens is hardly a passion
it is a barter of compulsion
staying at the station
people soon become porters

khwaab-e-shireen mein woh aur
dil mera hai maail-e-shauq
dil dhaDaktaa hai ki
bedaar karuun ya na karuun
she is dreaming sweetly, and
my heart bends towards desire
my heart beats, wondering
whether to wake her up or not

shauq-e-manzil humsafar hai
jazba-e-dil rahbar
mujh pe khud bhi khul naheen paata
kidhar jaata hoon main
passion for destination as companion
emotion of the heart as my guide
even i myself cannot fathom
where i am headed

nigaah-e-mehr ki garmi hai
raushni dil ki
hai bazm-e-shauq meri
kaamgaar eid ke din
warmth of a compassionate gaze
is the light of the heart
my assembly of enthusiasm
is fortunate on this day of eid
