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

Kuch Mere Dil Ne Kahaa

I was pleasantly surprised when Amanat selected this song. It's one of those flop movies with beautiful songs that one would remember for years. I never got a chance to watch the film or even the song until recently but I knew of the song since long ago because of it's quality and the singers. First time I realized that it was Viju Shah's music but I've been his fan since long after I learned what other movies he has given music for. Anand Bakshi's lyrics are beautiful as usual.


tu ru ru ru ru
hmmm hmmm hmm hmm
hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

HH: (kuch mere dil ne kahaa
kuch tere dil ne kahaa) (2)

(ab hum kya kahe kya sune
jab dil baatein karne lage) (2)

SS: ho... aaa aaa aaa aaa

HH: ho yeh dil bezubaan tha
aaj iss ko zubaan mil gayi
ho meri zindagi ko
ek haseen daastaan mil gayi
jeene ka marne ka (2)
aayega ab mazaa

SS: (kuch mere dil ne kahaa
kuch tere dil ne kahaa) (2)

(ab hum kya kahe kya sune
jab dil baatein karne lage) (2)

HH: hey...
SS: aaa aaa
HH: hooo

SS: ho tujhse milke jaana
kitni tanha thi main tere bin
ho pal pal kaisi hulchul
zindagi mein hai ab raat din
main kahoon aur kya (2)
bas tera shukriya

HH: kuch mere dil ne kahaa
kuch tere dil ne kahaa

SS: kuch mere dil ne kahaa
kuch tere dil ne kahaa

HH: ab hum kya kahe kya sune
jab dil baatein karne lage

SS: ho ab hum kya kahe kya sune
jab dil baatein karne lage
