raat yuuN dil meN terii khoyii hu’ii yaad aayii
jaise viiraane meN chupke se bahaar aa jaaye
jaise sehraaoN meN hauley se chale baad-e-nasiim
jaise biimaar ko be-vajh qaraar aa jaaye
Here are a few translations of this quartain taken from Aditya Johri’s page.
Translation by Agha Shahid Ali, from A Rebel’s Silhouette:
At night my lost memory of you returned
and I was like the empty field where springtime,
without being noticed, is bringing flowers;
I was like the desert over which
the breeze moves gently, with great care;
I was like the dying patient
who, for no reason, smiles.
Tanslation by Sarvat Rahman, from 100 Poems by Faiz Ahmed Faiz:
Last night, your long-lost memory came back to me as though
Spring stealthily should come to a forsaken wilderness
A gentle breeze its fragrance over burning deserts blow
Or, all at once be soothed somehow the sick soul’s distress.
Translation by Vikram Seth, from Mappings:
Last night your faded memory came to me
As in the wilderness spring comes quietly,
As, slowly, in the desert, moves the breeze,
As, to a sick man, without cause, comes peace.

EVER HEART TOUCHING VOICE…I CANT EXPLAIN MY FEELINGS….I SEARCHED ALOT THAT SONG EVERYWHERE & FINALLY I FOUND IT FROM HERE.THANKS DEAR..THE VOICE OF NAYYRA NOOR…FOR HER TRIBUTE THERE R NO WORDS TO CARRY THAT WEIGHT OF PRAISE…SHE IS GREAT.
I chanced upon this link for the song while doing a random google search. As I listened to the lyrics unfoding in Nayyara Noor’s lilting voice, I felt a fullness in my heart I hadn’t felt in a long time
As with everyone here, this tv serial and the soundtrack is linked to my beautiful childhood memories of watching Dhoop Kianare, Ankahi and Tanhanyiena in India. We were one of the few families who owned a ‘VCP’ (Video Cassette Player) in the mid eighties; naturally our more than enthusiastic neighbours would join us during the ‘Dhoop Kinare’ sessions! Also like others here, I didn’t understand the words, let alone the string of sentences then. The translations here made me realize how shockingly beautiful the lyrics are. Thank you whomsoever did this favour to so many of us! I’ve already listened to the four lines about a hundred time! 
Cheers.
I just wanna thank all of you guys for putting these links for such beautiful songs those I listened in my childhood but never actually had them in my collection. I’m over the moon to have them now. Especially the ghazal “Raat yun pyaar mein” what a song, what voice and ohh the lyrics are killing…!!! Beautiful…Thank you all.
bht bht zaberdast
ive seen this serial at its revised foreplay,,,,but i love the song….i dont know but this song has something spirtual in it,,, the combination of vocal,music and poetry is awesome,,,, i really have a feelings for this song…
Delightful. Beautiful. Soothing. And many other things, but most of all a dream.
Hey Friends,
Wen this is being written here, i m listening to the beautiful lines of Nayyra Noor… tears have come in my eyes cause they brought me memmories of the past which r so much connected to the play called Dhoop Kinare- an epic so far as the tv plays r concerned. I m so delighted and thankful to u guys for having brought gr8 memories of the past connected to this lines of Faiz saheb.
The lyrics… the melody… true diamond…so much so that even though the first few lines of this ghazal were heard many many years ago its brilliance bought me to this site today where on reading the complete ghazal I feel in awe….almost making that journey with the person being punished for falling in love…..thank you….
Jahaan kharaab sahi hum, badan dareedaa sahi
Teri talaash me nikle hain, paa bureedaa sahi
Jahaan e she’r me meri kayee riyaasaten hain !!
Main apne shahr me gumnam o na shaneedaa sahi
Bhale hi chhaaoN na de, aasraa to detaa hai
Ye aarzu ka shajar hai, khazaaN raseedaa sahi
Inhi bujhi hui aankhoN me khaab aaye gaa
YaqiN na chhor, ye bimaar o shab gazeedaa sahi
DiloN ko jorne waali ghazal salaamat hai
Ta’alluqaat hamaare agar kasheedaa sahi
By : Ghalib Ayaz
Gham hai ya ezteraar sa kuch hai
Yaa mujhe intezaar sa kuchh hai
Be sabab aur kaun bhatke ga
Dil hai aur be qarar sa kuch hai
Jab bhi chahun udas hojaun!
Khud pe ab ikhteyar sa kuch hai
Zindagi itni badnumaa to nahi
Aayeene pe ghubar sa kuch hai
Ab gumaN ho raha hai manzil ka
Saamne regzaar sa kuch hai
Hauslon ko abhi pata na chale
Raste me hisaar sa kuch hai !
*Ghalib Ayaz*
Bas tere liye udaas aankhen !!!!
uff! maslehat nashanaas aankhen
Be noor hui hian dheere dheere
Aayi nahi mujh ko raas aankhen!
Aakhir ko gaya wo – kaash rukta
Karti rahin iltemaas aankhen!!
Khaabeeda haqiqaton ki maari
Paamaal aur bad hawaas aankhen
Dar pesh junu.n ka marhala, aur
Faqa hai badan to pyas aankhen
I have lost my husband very recently….I listen to the song every night before going to bed….inspite of all the sorrows, behind it brings me the legend memories of my husband Seraj
Thank you all very much
Dhoop Kinarey – Rahat Kazmi and Marina Khan has been my all time favourite. First saw it when I was 15 years old. was in search of it. A Pakistani friend brought the DVD. When I saw it again I prided myself for loving one of the best serials. Especially the songs Raat yun dil me………, and Main tumse na puchhun……..
GREAT. Acting – SUPERB. I listen to the songs as and when I feel the mood. Remember I have the DVD. LUCKY ME NA!!!!!!!
this is sheer ecstasy and nothing else. Thanks for bringing this heaven to us.
zeeni, my wife asked me to search this song at 3am in the night, and i was so lucky to find it over here. she wanted me to hear this so much. we couldnt find it anywhere but here. thanks for making our night.
I too have been searching for this beautiful beautiful song since so many years! FINALLY found it….
BIG THANK YOU !
can anyone post the guitar tabs for this music…i love it
Of course Nayyara Noor has no match when it comes to singing Faiz, but somehow she could not do justice with this one. I wish I could download the recitation by Faiz.
amazing piece of work……..always a joy to listen to it………my father used to listen to t so much…i memorised the whole ghazal when was 5!!!!
men kya kahoon ? faiz ka kalaam or nayyara noor ki aawaz , khamoshi se bara khiraj-e-tehseen shayad koi nahi ho sakta , thx
I have heard “Raat yun dil mein teri” many times in different compositions in the voice of Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Sahab, precisely and beautifully written without losing the obvious message of missing your beloved. The beauty of this couplet is that it will definitely make you nostalgic.
Sigh…
