Tap the couplets you want, then copy or share them below.
ترے سینے میں دم ہے دل نہیں ہے
ترا دم گرمیٔ محفل نہیں ہے
Tere sine mein dam hai dil nahin hai
Tera dam garmi-e-mahfil nahin hai
گزر جا عقل سے آگے کہ یہ نور
چراغ راہ ہے منزل نہیں ہے!
Guzar ja aql se aage ki ye nur
Charagh-e-rah hai manzil nahin hai!
