maayuus to huuN vaade se

May 20th, 2007

maayuus to huuN vaade se tere kuchh aas nahiiN kuchh aas bhii hai
main ap’ne KhayaaloN ke sad’qe tuu paas nahiiN aur paas bhii hai

ham’ne to Khushii maaNgii thii magar jo tuune diyaa achchhaa hii diyaa
jis Gham ko taa’alluq ho tujh’se wo raas nahiiN aur raas bhii hai

pal’koN pe laraj’te ashkoN meN tasviir jhalak’tii hai terii
diidaar kii pyaasii aaNkhoN ko ab pyaas nahiiN aur pyaas bhii hai

Movie: Barsaat ki Raat

    Hi Animesh! I’ve been an ardent admirer of Sahir’s poetry for about 10 years now! So - thank you for another gem!

    However, I could not find any mention of this song you’ve quoted above! Neither on the tape that I have, nor in other Internet sightings. I’d love to hear Rafi’s rendition of this lyric. Any idea if this song was never released or is only available in certain compilations. I called up a music store close by and even they didn’t have this song on the “Barsaat ki raat” CD!

    Though you are asking this question to Animesh, though I’d try and help. I have this song as well … but I have the audio-cassette of Barsaat Ki raat, though I do recall hearing this song in a Rafi compilation CD as well, if I get my hands on more concrete information I’ll let you know.

    I got the song from Barsaat ki Raat DVD. The audio quality was excellent.

    Great blog page! Being a big fan of Sahir, I really love this blog!

    I recently posted Sahir’s “Aana hai toh aa” in my own blog page. In case you are interested, I can share with you the transcript of the poem with my english translation.

    Best regards,
    Hari

    Beyond doubt these are great efforts. I suggest adding Hindi or Urdu version along with roman script. It will make possible to enjoy the rhythm as well, while reading.
