Very nice post> I had just heard this gazal yesterday sung by Aabida Parveen. If you can add that voice post, that will be a great favour.
Gr8 post,Pls organise Begum Abida Parveen week
one of the subtliest ever ghazal i heared/ read.
may god rest her in peace.
I highly recommend the version sung by Mehdi Hasan. The mood it evokes is most excellent.
i did not understand this part of this song-
teraa pahluu mere dil kii tarah aabaad rahe
tujh pe guzre na qayaamat shab-e-tanhaa’ii kii
can somebody explain me?
what is actually the background of this song?
