sar jhukaaya toh patthar sanam bann gaye
lekar tumhaara naam jahan sar jhuka diya
maine ussi dayaar ko kaaba bana diya
sar jhukaaya toh patthar sanam bann gaye
ishq bhatka toh haq aashna ho gaya
rashq karta hai kaaba mere kufr par
maine jis but ko pooja khuda ho gaya
gum rahi hai ke mairaaj hai ishq ki
aye junoon bol manzil hai yeh kaun si
uske ghar ka pata poochte poochte
poochne wala khud laapta ho gaya
main muhabbat se muh mod leta agar
toot padhti yeh bijli kisi aur par
mere dil ki tabahi se yeh toh hua
kam se kam doosron ka bhala ho gaya
waqt e ehbaab parchchayi sooraj kiran
log duniya khushi chaandni zindagi
mere mehboob ik tere gham ke siwa
jo mila raaste mein juda ho gaya
kaarobaar e tamanna mein yeh to hua
unke kadmon pe marne ka mauka mila
zindagi bhar toh ghaata uthaate rahe
aaj pehli baar faayda ho gaya
aisa bhatka ke lauta nahi aaj tak
aisa bichchda ke aaya nahi aaj tak
dil to kambakht iska darman walla
aapke ghar gaya aapka ho gaya

ReplyDeleteApke ghar gaya apka hogya
Whereupon I pronounced your name in prostration
ReplyDeleteI turned that very ground into the Kaaba
My prostration has turned stones into the Beloved
Love has gone astray to become the discernment of Truth
The Kaaba is in awe of my paganism
Every idol I have worshipped has turned into God
Has love gone astray or is it an ascension to heaven
Is this madness, tell me which station is this?
Had I turned my face away from love
This lightening would have broken upon someone else
This heart’s devastation has done something
At least others can now reap the blessings
Seeking endlessly for my lover’s whereabouts
The one who was seeking is also no where to be found
Friends, shadows, the sun and its rays
People, this world, happiness, moonlight, life
My beloved except for this concern about you
Those I met on this path have parted
The business of hoping and waiting, has done something
I found a chance of dying at my beloved’s feet
All my life I kept suffering great losses
Today I have profited for the very first time
I am so lost, that I could never return
I am so separated that I could never arrive
My forsaken heart is so silly
It went to your house and became forever yours
