Tere Ishq Nachaya (Punjabi: تیرے عشق نچایا, translation: Your love made me dance)[1] is a Punjabi Sufi song composed by 18th-century mystic-poet Baba Bulleh Shah.[2] It is a popular song performed by Sufi and qawwali singers, including Abida Parveen and also featured in Sufi music album, Sufi –Ishq Bada Bedardi (RPG Sa Re Ga Ma) .[3]

It has also been performed by Punjabi folk singer Jasbir Jassi[1][4] and pop rock band, Jal, who also performed it on the episode 1 of Coke Studio in 2011.[5]

This song inspired the 1998 Cult-classical hit Chaiyya Chaiyya, written by Gulzar, music by A R Rahman and sung by Sukhwinder Singh and Sapna Awasthi from Mani Ratnam's Dil Se film.

In the early 2000s, Shoaib Mansoor directed a very popular variant of this song called "Supreme Ishq" which was sung by Riaz Ali Qadri.
