kya kahun tum se main ki kya hai ishq
jaan ka rog hai bala hai ishq
what can I say of love to thee
soul's ailment and calamity
ishq hi ishq hai jahan dekho
sare aalam mein bhar raha hai ishq
its only Love where'er you see
Love fills this world entirely
ishq hai tarz o taur ishq ke tain
kahin banda kahin KHuda hai ishq
love is the mode and style of love
it's man below and God above
ishq mashuq ishq aashiq hai
yani apna hi mubtala hai ishq
both lover and beloved be
love's self-involved entirely
gar parastish KHuda ki sabit ki
kisu surat mein ho bhala hai ishq
if God's worship's true you say
then love is good in every way
dilkash aisa kahan hai dushman-e-jaan
muddai hai pe muddaa hai ishq
so charming beautiful is she?
that love I seek, tho foe she be
hai hamare bhi taur ka aashiq
jis kisi ko kahin hua hai ishq
is there a paramour like me
'mongst lovers whosoever be
koi KHwahan nahin mohabbat ka
tu kahe jins-e-na-rawa hai ishq
Love an improper thing you deem
for love does no one ever dream?
'mir'-ji zard hote jate ho
kya kahin tum ne bhi kiya hai ishq
miirji, colour's drained from you
by love, have you been smitten too?
Ghazal
Kya kahun tum se main ki kya hai ishq
