pyaar par bas to nahiiN

April 24th, 2007

Sung by Asha Bhosle in the movie Sone ki Chidiya:

pyaar par bas to nahiiN hai meraa lekin phir bhii
tuu bataa de ke tujhe pyaar karuuN yaa na karuuN

tuune Khud apanii nigaahoN se jagaayaa thaa jinheN
un tamannaaoN kaa izahaar karuuN yaa na karuuN
tuune jis dil ko baRe pyaar se apanaayaa thaa
usako shikavoN kaa gunaahagaar karuuN yaa na karuuN

jis tamannaa ke sahaare se thii jiine kii ummiid
vo tamannaa bhii pashemaan hu_ii jaatii hai
zindagii yuuN to hameshaa se pareshaan sii thii
ab to kuchh aur bhii viiraan hu_ii jaatii hai

    I believe it is sung by Talat Mahmood.

    Your belief is correct and incorrect; correct because Talat did sing a different version of this song and incorrect because the wordings of Talat’s version are different.

    As a matter of fact, the original nazm, entitled “mataa-e-Ghair” is completely different from the sung version, which in his own way, Sahir “de-persianized” or used simpler language for the masses. Here’s the link for the original nazm:

    Great info! I will read Mata e Ghair again; why don’t you add the reference in this song? I think you will do more justice :)
