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.
Also, here is the video of hasi khanakti hui:

The song has got memories which cannot be wiped from one’s mind…..
The purity of the lyrics, and the crystal clear voice of Nayyara Noor add to the subtle beauty and charm of this very old ghazal….. it’s truly a must for people who’ve anytime been in love, or who believe in the principles of the power of love….
AWSOME!
Oh my god..This is such an amazing ghazal..It’s been like 15 yrs since I saw Dhoop Kinaray and I have searched for this musical ghazal for so many years and now that I can finally hear it again, it brings back those memories…memories of love and wanting to be with someone and the sad end to the love..watching her be with someone else and not being able to do anything about it but just cry at night thinking about her..Anyways.. enough about my pathetic love life (or the lack of it)..great work guys..thank you so much for the ghazal..
Awsome, awsome, just curious to download it anyways got or know from where to download
Awesome………….Thanks to sligarians..I swear …i have been trying to find this Ghazal all over…….Its amazing……..the most meaningful lyrics one can enjoy…even in Faiz Sahib’s Voice…..wow…….What a genious……May God bless your soul…….
rich words, pleasaing meanings, a beautiful mind indeed.
Amazing! I read these lines two years back. They are simply wonderful and heart touching. Great to know that these are written by Faiz Saab. It’s simply wonderful.

i have been looking for this since ever. finally found it. i have grown up watching this play and till date its my favorite. and these lyrics they touch my soul each time i listen to them.
Is it a good Idea to keep them also in Urdu And Hindi to keep beauty intact ?
Great — thanks for am “invaluable moment”.

This is like finding a rare gem- thank you!
To me this is not mere poetry, but words that seem to be divinely inspired. With every word Faiz Sahib proves that he has seen life from very close, and today he lives in the hearts of thousands. He is immortal. His words are timeless.
thank you soooo much guys…..ive hunted for this ghazal by faiz saab and have finally found it…i cant contain my joy….
This is one of my favourites.
Just discovered this website..very nice!!
Amazing…!! I have always loved it…!! Thanks a great deal… i came across this link and i found it here..!! Thanks a zillion !!
I’ve been humming this tune since years now,,,so delighted and amazed that I can actually listen to it whenever I want…thank you so much!!
its juz awsum i got diz luvli s0ng ad0rble… thkX !!!
i am a great admirer of fiaz sahib. when i was young, it was the time of opression and tyrany of zia ul haq. my father used to recite faiz sahib’s poems to me and explained his thoughts. he was a great figure who was over shadowed by the personality of most obtuse, meanest and lowest kind of dictator. great misfortune for a nation….
This is a truly amazing houner 2 read, i am new 2 this poet and hve jst found out what i hve mised, he has inspired me as i two right poetry. Hes amazing.
Sometimes words are really not enough to explain about someone who we really cares or somethings which truly reflects our feelings and this song is one of them,of course the drama “Dhoop Kinaray” itself is very great.The true meanings and relationships in ones life is explained in such a way that it’s worth for me cannot be shown in words.I am really happy that I have got it today.
For the past 12 year i have been trying to find this song, i have even come to pakistan but returned in vain . today finally my search has come to an end due to your generosity of putting this song on the net. There are not enuf words in the dictionary that i can use to thank thee for this Benevolent act. This ghazal brings to mind plenty of good memories from the past and i can see by the comments other people have posted i m not alone in my thoughts. My world is a better place now that i have FAIZ SAHABz ghazal beutyfully sung by Nayyara Noor back in my life. Thanks a Zillion
My Best Regards to you.

Fatimah
I’m lucky to finaly found this beautifuly written master peace sung by a very great Ghazal singer Nayyara Noor composed by sweet Arshad Mahmood!
Many thanks for bringing this here on your forum.
Words fail me. I can see that I am not the only one that is so touched by this ghazal and Nayyara Noor’s haunting voice. I loved Dhoop Kinare and for me even today it is the best TV play to come out of Pakistan.
Thank you for sharing.
Even though I donot belong to the Dhoop Kinaray generation…. watching the serial as well as (Tanhaiyaan, Aangan Tehra, Unkahi & 50/50) in this modern era simply made me realize the fact that how unlucky I am ….that I wasn’t granted by ALLAH a chance to live during the 1970′s & 1980′s….
This ghazal is my favourite….offcourse beautifuly written by Mr. Faiz and sung (by Nayarra Noor)… i really wonder …whenever I hear this ghazal….it engenders a chimera…as if I was watching the song in 1987!
thanks allot for this contribution!
Thank you very much. May you be rewarded/granted the wish for which you have posted this song up on this site.
Amazing lyrics, music, voice etc, etc, etc, etc……………………………
Can anybody send me the link to another song which appeared in Dhoop Kinare. It was “Hansi Khanakti Huyi” or even the name of the song ie what are the starting Lyrics.
Been frantically searching for it.
My O My! I have searched for this thing everywhere. This really brings back memories which I thought were lost. I have seen the play two times (once in the 80′s on ptv) and the ghazal I have heard may be thousand times on that old vhs tape my brother had back in delhi, when I was in India 10 years ago.
This is probably the simplest of the most poetic and romantic Urdu lyrics ever. And greatest of them all too!!
I can’t thank you enough!!
Some things keep haunting you forever…this is one of them!
Not only does this song bring back pleasant memories of my childhood, it also goes to show how great our television industry used to be! Everything was perfect at that time!!
Hi ! Who can forget the very soulful ‘Hansi Khanakti Hui’ sung by Nayyara Noor from Dhoop Kinare. Had been searching for it and actually got my little friend – Yadu to split it from the video.
Here is a link for all the Dhoop Kinare fans -

Dear Friends,
I am thrilled at finding both my favorite songs from Dhoop Kinare in a day. I’m estatic. I’m goin to mail both to my sisters.
Nita
2.2.07…hiiii….ohhhh my God!!!!!!!!!!!at last i got the full ghazal ,what i was always looking for and was eager to listen the melody of this great ghazal n the spirit ….behind it…it realy makes you feel as if you are in the another world ..a world which used to be for you n the world still is just meant for you …that reminds the existance of love …..and what better way to do it than through verse….and at times the poem in itself symbolize a subtle lonliness, of a soul and sure , the theme of the poem is obviously”pining for the beloved”and i still watch DHOOPKINAREY just to get to tuned to the lyrics of the greatest poet ”Faiz sb”and i always as to get tuned to these verses find my soul flying around in vast cosmos……and still feel a kind of void in me…..which binds to make me feel myself and and give me some time to still peep into my backyard soul……thanx for reminding of my old days ”again what could be better than the verse itself”and its really very haunting at times…..coz the memories of yester years some times make you grow and some times make you giggle and some times make you cry even……so thank you for making me feel n going through every emotion of mine……i am just some how deeply attached to this ghazal as it feels me that its the soul of me ..the real soul ……,,,Farzana siddiqui
amazing…i never thought i would find these audios – bless those who thought to post this up for others …
as brief as these expressions are – they leave a ‘mega’ impact on the heart…
i do feel as if i’ve discovered a rare gem…
somehow these sounds, the words of faiz and dhoop kinare have really touched my heart…
thanks again…
bhai jaan chah gaye aap ..aaj ka din achcha guzrega ab itni pakeeza shayeri sunkar
this is Faiz Ahmed Faiz at his besttt!!!
Thanks a lot for this gazal – I have always loved the title track of Dhoop Kinarey.
Shukriya once again.
When I heard this ghazal years ago as a teenager in India it remained in my mind forever. I had despaired of ever finding it again until now. What is most incredible is how it seems to have touched so many other hearts the same way! In my mind this is probably the greatest work of music and poetry ever, given that it remained in my memory for so many years without fading! Thanks for uploading, and thanks to all those who posted their thoughts in response … it is heartening to see that even in this mechanical modern world there are people out there with hearts and souls!!!
