Tere Ishq Nachaya
Your Love Makes Me Dance
Two ways into the same verse. Tap a line to find its echo.
Come, healer, come; my life is ebbing away.
बहुड़ीं वे तबीबा मैंडी जिन्द गईआ ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
Love pitched its tent within my heart.
इश्क डेरा मेरे अन्दर कीता,
I filled the poisoned cup and drank.
भर के ज़हर प्याला मैं पीता,
Come quickly, healer, before I die.
झबदे आवीं वे तबीबा नहीं ते मैं मर गईआं ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
The sun has gone; its crimson lingers.
छुप्प गया सूरज बाहर रह गई आ लाली,
Show yourself once more; I would give my all.
होवां मैं सदके मुड़ जे दें विखाली ,
I erred, my love: I did not go with you.
मैं भुल्ल गईआं तेरे नाल ना गईआं ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
What is this love of yours? I cannot know.
तेरे इश्क दी सार वे मैं ना जाणां,
My head lies beneath the falling hammers.
इह सिर आया ए मेरा हेठ वदाणां,
Love struck, and from my lips a cry arose.
सट्ट पई इश्के दी तां कूकां दईआं ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
Mother, do not hold me back from love.
एस इश्क दे कोलों सानूं हटक ना माए,
Who can turn back the boats bound for Lahu?
लाहू (लाहौर) जांदड़े बेड़े मोड़ कौन हटाए,
My wandering wits sailed off with the boatmen.
मेरी अकल भुल्ली नाल मुहाण्यां दे गईआं ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
A peacock calls within love's tangled grove.
एस इश्क दी झंगी विच मोर बुलेंदा,
Our beloved shows the Kaaba, shows the way of prayer.
सानूं काबा ते किबला प्यारा यार दसेंदा,
You wounded me, then never asked how I fared.
सानूं घायल करके फिर खबर ना लईआ ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
Bulleh, sit beside Inayat's door.
बुल्ल्हा शाह इनायत दे बह बूहे,
He clothed us in the green and red of love.
जिस पहनाए सानूं सावे सूहे,
I took to flight and found my love.
जां मैं मारी उडारी मिल प्या वहिया ।
Your love has set me dancing: thaiyya, thaiyya.
तेरे इश्क नचाइआ कर थईआ थईआ ।
