Cheetah tight Hai
its ……………O.K.
Appreciable but not the best
This tarana is one of the masterpiece of urdu poetry by one among us – ALIG MAJAS
ALIG Abdullah Ansari
abdullahalig@yahoo.com
Every thing is planned.
The tarana is very sweet & beautiful .
Kindly provide the meanings of the difficult words in the Aligarh Tarana. I don’t follow it 100 %. Thanks
Wow…its superb…excellent…and..we can use many more supermative word for this..sweetest Taraana..its a Soul of Aligarians.Its a wonderful tribute to our founder father by an Aligarian(Asrar-ul-Haq Majaz).
Amazing…………It gives a new energy in Aligs. It’s superb.
assalam
‘urdu ko logne bhoola diya hai aur ap hai ki aligarh ko zinda kiye hai’

‘zarraat ka bosa lene ko, sau baar jhuka aakaash yahan
khud aankh se ham ne dekhi hai, batil ki shikast-e-faash yahan’
Aagar ye website urdu main hoti, to bahut achcha hota. kum az kum aligarh walon ko is baat pe sochna chahiye. Ummeed ke is per ghour kiya jayega.
Really its the most beautiful& melodious song on the earth & every one can see the true reflection of Aligarh in this “tarana”.
I am sorry if I am wrong anywhere to express my feeling here with this very ‘shair’that Its applicable for all the Aligs -”Main woh mitti hun jo chak ki gardish mein asir, tu agar hath laga de to sanwar jaoonga”
Regards.
Shashi B Rai
indeed this is a masterpiece from that great poet and i am overwhelmed. for the first time i have heard it on your web-site and i can only say “tu kahan hai majaz”? is mulk ko tumhari zaroorat hai” 9TH july 2006
the tarana is superb, melodious, & inspiring . it awaikens us. it inspires to become something and serve our community and country
Mohib Sahib:
Thank you for your web site. The brought back good memories of Aligarh and AMU.
If it was not the AMU, today I would be a farmer in a small town in U.P. Thanks to Sir Syed and his vision, today Aligarian are all over the world achieving greatness and bringing credit to their alma mater.
It has been a long time since I left Aligarh (1970) with few dollars in my pocket. I was not sure I would be happy in America, but with the passage of time I got seasoned. I made peace with my decision to become a U.S. citizen. For new comers, the transfer of loyalty is gradual and unconscious. In my view loyalty is the love of country, pride in it, and readiness to make sacrifice for its best interest. I have learned to love the country of my choice more sincerely. As an American, I have achieved successes in my career that a person of my background would never have imagined. As an American, I also become free, independent and proud.
Also, thanks to my mother who had the vision to move all my brothers and sisters from our small town to Aligarh for education. In her memory, I have contributed a small amount to the AMU Scholarship fund which is professionally managed by the AMU Washington Chapter. I encourage all Aligarian to join this great effort. This is one way we can pay back our debt to AMU.
The short and long version of Tarana has touched me very much. This is the most beautiful and inspiring song.
Just one suggestion: please consider inserting full English translation below each line. I will print it in color, framed it and give it to my son as a gift.
May God bless you and your family. Please keep up the good work.

Ho agar haNthooN me tere Khamayai mujiz raqam
Sheeshai dir ho agar tera misale jamejam
pak rakh apne sada tilmeze Rahmanee hai to
dekhna hone na payee tere sada be abroo
sonee waloon ko jaga de shair ke aijaz se
khirmane batil jalade shulayee awaz se

The Tarana is excellent. After reading I am feeling
great……. May God bless you…….. Thanks for creating this website.
ye tarana itna khoobsoorat hai ki ab ise zuban ki sarhadon ko par karke doosari zuban men bhi Aanaa chahiye . philhal to ise hindi(devnagari) men to kar hi dena chahiye.

I dont think any country or institution has a trana better than our trana. we all aligariyans should selute Majaz for that. at least we should offer fateha to him. May Allah bless his soul. amin
i really dont know what to write in the praise of this gr8 composition….but it really gives a sensation which is so full of energy n it makes all of us remind of our Aligarh days n its existance…….with this Tarana lots of storys are related of my Aligarh boarding days….since my school days til the last day of my college!!!!!!!!n it became a memory for me as we were the last batch who got the opportunity to sing the Tarana with the other university boys in te literary function of Tamseel and Meezan.. in the year of 1985 so its not a Tarana only for me but its the age which is still going on n moving on with my life……i am always short of words to express my feelings for the Tarana……as there are always unspoken words…in life,,,, though i am trying to write my emotions dipped into this meloldious composition of our gr8 and beloved shayar majaz sahib…may Allah bless his soul with finest life there….i love this tarana coz it always provide me a window to peep into my stay at Aligarh which has never become old…and still its so aromatic that my soul get perfumed ..when ever i get tuned to it……thanx to Muhib sb who has given us a page to write our emotions…..may Allah bless Mohib sb with finest every thing in life !!Farzana siddiqui
Nice to visit this site. Aligarh tarana reminds my father his days in University and it gives same feeling to me. As long as this song play, i got all my memories of university and feel that i am sitting somewhere in campus.
I left aligarh in 1987. My wish to visit university once more in my life and spend atleast a day in my hostel Hali hostel MM hall.
Anyone from Aligarh please do write to me at my ID rashid8505@rediffmail.com
BAHOT PYARA TARANA HAI ,,,,,,,, MUJHE ISE DOWNLOAD KARNA HAI TO KAISE KAR SAKTA HUN
Assalamo alekum.
i have just find this wonderful site,where we can rejoin,AMU.May ALLAH bless your effort,to bring such priceless things directly to the students,ex-student,and every person who has related directly or indirectly to ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY.well,now university has loosing his credientals and edge on modern education with islamic culture due to the ill behaviour and ingagement of students in meaningless things other than study.Now students focussing on reginalism insist of study.
We are loosing our edge,NEVERTHELESS we will strike again with pride.with the concept of our great Past and glorious movement lead by our great ancestor.Once again we will prove that;jo abr yahaaN se uThThega, vo saare jahaaN par barsegaa
har juu-e-ravaan par barsegaa, har koh-e-garaaN par barsegaa
har sard-o-saman par barsegaa, har dasht-o-daman par barsegaa
Khud apne chaman par barsegaa, GhairoN ke chaman par barsegaa
har shahr-e-tarab par garjegaa, har qasr-e-tarab par kaRkegaa……INSHALLAH.
MAY ALLAH BLESS YOUR TEAM FOR THIS GREAT EFFORT.
i have never listen such type of trana best
jo taaq-e-haram meN roshan hai, vo shamaa yahaaN bhii jaltii hai
is dasht ke goshe-goshe se, ek juu-e-hayaat ubaltii hai
Mind Blowing Mind Blowing
Peace of Dedication to Muslims as a whole and AMU in particular.

Beautiful song. But voice was not much clear and music should not have been used.
Danish Sahib
Yes, voice could be better. But this is from the web site. I am not sure I understand your comment on music. This is the best composition of music. Enjoy.
Dear Aligs (Assalamwalaikum)
Really. I am indebted to the body(s), whosoever have provided us and compiled this beautiful Aligarh Tarana. I have become nostalgic to get this beautiful piece in the morning of 16th December. I wish my University bloom and prosper and impart the same quality education, which it has been rendering since its inception.Khuda hafiz.

esko suno to man karta hai ke sunta raho….every line, even every word has a great sence in this amu tarana.
this TARANA is beutiful, and a symbol of unity (National Integration) i love very much to listen it
This timeless masterpiece by Majaz will forever inspire people and touches the core of one’s heart. The lyrics are beautiful, every verse springs into life inside one’s imagination. It evokes strong, overflowing feelings of love for our Alma Mater (or country for that matter) and gives us a lesson of our history, beauty, sacrifices and defines our duty in a way that a thousand books can not achieve.
I hope this will inspire people to keep creating works of art that capture human imagination for generations to come. It is said that Majaz composed this Tarana in one night. AMU owes that one night a gratitude that it can never hope to pay back.
Truly Inspiring.

bahut khub, agar main is tarane ke bare mein kuch likhun to shayad, ink aur page ki kami ho jayegi….. duniya mein koi aisa shakhs nahi hai jo is tarane ko sun ke uska murid ho gaya ho.
main AMU aur Sir Syed ‘DADA’ se utna pyar karta hoon ki shayad iska apko andaza nahi. agar main apni bat karoon, amu nahi rahta to shayad main aj nahi padh pata. kyon ki financilly main us layak nahi tha. alhamdo lillah, aj main itna khush hal hoon ke bata nahi sakta. i can do anything for amu…. even ki main apni jan bhi qurban kar sakta hoon.

Assalam Alaikum Alig Borothers,after a long time i realised that really i have missed something called SUNEHRE DIN,When i was in AMU i had been a Ghazal singer and writer also.
Aj Tarana suna yun laga jaise main Aligarh ki yadon men kho sa gaya hun.Main shukr guzar hun aap logo ka ki aapne AMU ki yadon ko taza karne ke liye behtareen zariya dia hai.Meri dua hai ki Hamari shan jis tarah thi usi tarah hamesha barqarara rahe(AAMEEN)

beautiful tarana.i don’t have words to express my feelings and love for this tarana.though its been ages i passed out from AMU but somehow while doing somework it clicked me and i happen to open this site where i found this.This evening definitely i will play this at my system(at home)and would make my son and husband(who is not an aligarian) listen to it….recalling all the sweet memories of kennedy hall and everywhere in AMU.

URDU aur uske rasmul-khat ko zinda javed rakhne ki koshish ham sab ALIG bradri ko sidq-e-dil se be-los karna hoga,ye waqt ki sab se badi zaroorat hai.warna “Na samjhoge to mit jaoge ae hindustan walo” .Kam-az-kam ye beda to ham sab utha hi len ki Urdu akhbar roz khareeden-ge,urdu kitabon ka zakheera karenge,,aur apne bachon me iska zauq paida karenge.
