ho ruuh ke taain
jism se kis tarah mohabbat?
taair ko qafas se bhi
kahin ho hai mohabbat?

fall in love with the body?
can a bird ever feel
love for its own prison?

nigaahon se bayaan hoti hai

di us ne mujh ko
jurm-e-mohabbat ki woh saza
kuchh bekusur log
saza maangne lage

for the crime of love
that even the faultless have
started seeking the punishment

ye bhi ik rang hai
shaayad meri mehroomi ka
koyi hans de to
mohabbat ka gumaan hota hai
maybe this too is
a shade of my deprivation
that if anyone smiles
it seems to me like love

but my love

allah agar taufeeq na de
insaan ke bas ka kaam nahin
faizaan-e-mohabbat aam sahi
irfaan-e-mohabbat aam nahin
if god doesn’t give guidance
man is not competent
grace of love is common
but not love’s enlightenment

it courses through every vein,
daggers drawn

mohabbat karta hai kaun
what is urdu
but a courtesan in a brothel
everyone has fun with her
but who loves her really?

hum se dil ki beqaraari ka
mohabbat kis ko deti hai, miyaan,
aaraam sukoon duniya mein?
don't complain, sauda,
about your heart's restlessness
for whom has love given
peace and quiet in this world?

in this life than love’s longing
there are other comforts too
than the union with the beloved

mohabbat rang de jaati hai
jab dil dil se milta hai
magar masla to ye hai
dil baDi mushkil se milta hai
love makes life colorful
when two hearts meet
but what is difficult
is for two hearts to meet

dost dushman dekhne waale

flowers and thorns are the same
how can one ever love, thinking
