Raaz-e-dil unse chhupaaya na gayaa..

I always thought this one was the same as haal-e-dil yoon unhe sunaaya gayaa, but how wrong I was. One completely sad and the other completely playful... you got to listen to them to realize the difference. Of course, I love both the songs dearly so can't say one is better than the other or for that matter, even compare it. I wouldn't be doing justice to both then.

In any case, I'm so happy for youtube has come into existence! Long live youtube devta!!!


raaz-e-dil unse chhupaaya na gayaa (2)
pyaar ki aag kuchh aisi bhadki (2)
ek shola bhi dabaaya na gaya (2)
raaz-e-dil unse chhupaaya na gayaa

pehle pehle to mujhe
woh samajh bhi na sake
dil ko tadpaate rahe
mujhko tarsaate rahe
aankh se aankh kayi baar mili (2)
dil se dil phir bhi milaaya na gayaa
pyaar ki aag kuchh aisi bhadki (2)
ek shola bhi dabaaya na gaya
raaz-e-dil unse chhupaaya na gayaa

aankh milte hi jhuki
baat hothon pe ruki
berukhi pyaar bani
jeet bhi haar bani
kar gayi kaam mohabbat ki nazar (2)
unse daaman bhi bachaaya na gayaa
pyaar ki aag kuchh aisi bhadki (2)
ek shola bhi dabaaya na gaya
raaz-e-dil unse chhupaaya na gayaa

Mere Rang Mein...

(mere rang mein rangne waali
pari ho ya ho pariyon ki raani
ya ho meri prem kahaani
mere sawaalon ka jawaab do
do na) (2)

(chorus)

(bolo na kyon yeh chaand sitaare
takte hai yooh mukhade ko tumhaare) (2)
chhuke badan ko hawaa kyon mehki
raat bhi hai kyon behki behki
mere sawaalon ka jawaab do
do na

kyon ho tum sharmaayi hui si
lagti ho kuchh ghabaraayi hui si

ho kyon ho tum sharmaayi hui si
lagti ho kuchh ghabaraayi hui si

dhalka hua sa aanchal kyon hai
yeh mere dil mein hulchul kyon hai
mere sawaalon ka jawaab do
do na

dono taraf benaam si uljhan
jaise mile ho dulha-dulhan

aa ha ha ha ha

dono taraf benaam si uljhan
jaise mile ho dulha-dulhan

dono ki aisi haalat kyon hai
aakhir itni mohabbat kyon hai
mere sawaalon ka jawaab do
do na

mere rang mein rangne waali
pari ho ya ho pariyon ki raani
ya ho meri prem kahaani
mere sawaalon ka jawaab do

Wafaa Ke Deep Jalaaye... Sau Baar Janam Lenge

I still remember the first time I had heard this one years ago with Papu we were listening to Rafi songs in our collection as usual.

Thanks to Pradeep & Priya for all those "Rafi Ka Jaadu" programs. I've been listening to the old recordings from 2004. Listened to this one again on one of the clips. The music and Rafi sahab's voice is out of the world. As Pradeep would say, his voice is sweet as honey.

And today, while searching for the video of it, I got to listen to the couplet in the beginning of the song. What emotional words penned by Asad Bhopali. Love the waterfalls, river, trees. Such sharp features Shakila has, gorgeous!


wafaa ke deep jalaaye hue nigaahon mein
bhatak rahi ho bhala kyon udaas raahon mein
tumhe khayaal hai tum mujhse door ho lekin
main saamne hoon chali aao meri baahon mein

sau baar janam lenge sau baar fanaa honge
aye jaan-e-wafaa phir bhi hum tum na juda honge
sau baar janam lenge sau baar fanaa honge

kismat hume milne se rokegi bhalaa kab tak
in pyaar ki raahon mein bhatkegi wafaa kab tak
kadmon ke nishaan khud hi manzil ka pataa honge
sau baar janam lenge sau baar fanaa honge

yeh kaisi udaasi hai jo husn pe chhaai hai
hum door nahin tum se kehne ko judaai hai
armaan bhare do dil phir ek jagaah honge
sau baar janam lenge sau baar fanaa honge
aye jaan-e-wafaa phir bhi hum tum na juda honge
sau baar janam lenge sau baar fanaa honge

Kahe Tohse Sajnaa...Pug Pug Liye Jaau

kahe tohse sajna
kahe tohse sajna yeh tohri sajaniyaan
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan main
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan
magan apni dhoon mein rahe more saiyaan
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan (2)

badariyaa si barsoon ghataa banke chhaau
badariyaa si barsoon
ho badariyaa si barsoon ghataa banke chhaau
jiyaa to yeh chaahe tohe ang lagaau
laaj nigodi mori roke hai paiyaan
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan main
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan

main jag ki koyi reet na jaanu
main jag ki koyi
ho main jag ki koyi reet na jaanu
maang ka tohe sindoor maanu
tu hi choodiyaan mori tu hi kalaiyaan
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan main
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan

mohe laage pyaare sabhi rang piya re
mohe laage pyaare
ho mohe laage pyaare sabhi rang piya re
dukh sukh mein har pal rahoon sang piya re
dardava ko baate umar larkaiyaan
ho pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan

kahe tohse sajna yeh tohri sajaniya
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan main
pug pug liye jaau tohri balaiyaan (3)
