Apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do

As soon as the music started, I knew there was something different about this one. Something more appealing than the usual, something that made it different and more beautiful... instantly, google came to rescue and I was right! It is because it's Naushad sahab's composition. :) How can it not be different... and to top it, the beautiful words are penned by none other than Naqsh Lyalpuri. Just those two guarantee that it has to be gorgeous song and it indeed is.

The music reminds me of so many golden oldies as well as some new songs.


apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do
aaj roko na mujhe had se guzar jaane do
apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do

tum jo aaye to bahaaron pe shabaab aayaa hai
in nazaaron pe bhi halkaa saa nashaa chhaayaa hai
apni aankhon kaa nashaa aur bhi badh jaane do
apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do
aaj roko na mujhe had se guzar jaane do
apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do

sa ni dha pa pa ma
ga ma pa ni dha ni sa ni pa ga ma
ma pa re sa

surkh hothon pe gulaabon kaa gumaan hotaa hai
aisaa manzar ho jahaan hosh kahaan rehtaa hai
yeh haseen hoth mere hothon se mil jaane do
apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do
aaj roko na mujhe had se guzar jaane do

apni zulfen mere shaano pe bikhar jaane do
aaj roko na mujhe had se guzar jaane do
