دل
اس کو اپنا ہے جنوں اور مجھے سودا اپنادل کسی اور کا دیوانہ، میں دیوانہء دل
English translation
It has its own junoon* and I have my own sawda;* the Heart loves someone else and I love the Heart.
* Junoon and Sawda: Both are Arabic words and mean insanity; used in Urdu and Persian for the extreme love in which the lover loses his logic and behaves like a lunatic.)
Translated by Dr M.A.K. Khalil
