baarhaa aise bhii apne dil ko bahlaanaa paRaa
shaam-e-tanhaa’ii meN yaadoN se lipaT jaanaa paRaa

(baarhaa : many times; shaam-e-tanhaa’ii : a lonely evening)

har daf’aa pahlii shanaa-saa’iiyaaN na yaad aayiiN use
har daf’aa apnaa ta’arruf phir se karvaanaa paRaa

(shanaa-saa’iiyaaN : acquaintances; ta’arruf : introduction)

rezaa-rezaa ho gaye haiN aaj mere Khvaab phir
aaj ek patthar se phir shiishe ko takraanaa paRaa

(rezaa-rezaa : tatters)

naa-rasaa’iiyoN kii thakan ne kar diyaa halkaan phir
dasht se nikle to vaapis dasht meN aanaa paRaa

(naa-rasaa’ii : out of reach; halkaan : counfused; dasht : ruins)

phir bhii ham ne aql ko rahbar nahiiN maanaa “Jaleel”
dil ke go har faasile par ham pachtaanaa paRaa

(rahbar : guide)

Hi,

I just saw the dhoop kinaray gazal u uploaded – am sure there are loads of fans of the gazal like me out there who will thank you for that :-)

would you by any chance also have the other song that plays in Dhoop Kinaray.. it goes like..

hasi khanakti hui, bujhi bujhi khushiyan, hai dosti ki mehek se, rachi hui ghadiyan, maza anokha sa hai, aate jaate lamhon mein, kitaben god mein phaili, hai khoye baaton mein, rafakaton mein khazana jo hamne paya hai, na dil pe bojh hai koi na gum ka saaya hai…

i just have a small portion of the song.. wondering if anyone has the whole thing?

@ Shweta

Any relation to Sachin? I am sure you get that a lot. :-)

Yes, that qataa by Faiz has been immortalized by NN and is one of the most visited pages at this website. Unfortunately, I don’t have rest of the songs from Dhoop Kinaray. I would be on the lookout, though.

Keep visiting.

Best,
Mohib
