  the line
  :"rang hai dil kaa mere, "khoon-e-jigar hone tak"
  It really reminds me of another poet from 18th century context from i.e
  " Dil ka kya raang karoon khoon-e-jigar hone tak"
  
  Maybe just a coincidence

  Mirza Asadullah Beg Khan 1797-1869 is possibly the poet in question. Certainly he used the phrase mentioned.
