Ab Mere Paas Tum Aayee Ho / अब मेरे पास तुम आये हो

Thank you for sharing the beauty of your voice and spirit with the world, Jagjit Singh. You will be missed.



ab mere paas tum aayee ho to kya aayee ho
maine maana ke tum ik paikar-e-raanaee ho
chaman-e-daher mein rooh-e-chamanarayee ho
tallat-e-meher ho firdaus ki barnai ho
bint-e-mehtaab ho gardoo se utar aayee ho
mujhse milne mein abandesha-e-ruswaayee hai
maine khud apne kiye ki ye saza paayee hai
ab mere paas tum aayee ho to kya aayee ho

un dino mujpe qayamat ka junoon taari thaa
sar pe sarshaari-o-ishrat ka junoon taari thaa
maahpaaron se mohabbat ka junoon taari thaa
shehri yaaron se raqabat ka junoon taari thaa
bistar-e-makhmal-o-sanjaab thee duniya meri
ek rangeen-o-haseeN khwaab thee duniya meri

kya sunogi meri majrooh jawaani ki pukaar
meri fariyaad-e-jigar doz mera lala-e-zaar
shiddhat-e-kard mein doobi huyee meri guftaar
main ke khud apne mazak-e-tarabgee ka shikaar
wo gudaaz-e-dil-e-marhoom kahan se laaoon
ab mein wo zazba-e-masoom kahan se laaoon
ab mere pass tum aayee ho to kya aayee ho

By Jagjit Singh, with lyrics by Majaz, from the album The Best Of Kahkashan.

Kehta Hai Baabul / कहता है बाबुल (from Baabul)

kehta hai baabul
o meri bitiya
tu to hai mere
jigar ki chitthiya
kehta hai baabul
o meri bitiya
tu to hai mere
jigar ki chitthiya

daakiya koi
jab aayega
tujhko churaake
le jayega

katega kaise lamha
tere bina bata
jiungaa kaise tanhaa
tere bina bata
katega kaise lamha
tere bina bata
jiungaa kaise tanhaa
tere bina bata

tu suhagan rahe sang saajan rahe raat din
is khushi ke liye har sitam main uthaa loonga
tere jaane ka gham mujhko hoga magar laadli
leke is dard ko main sada muskuraaunga

baabul to dil se de raha dua yahi
khushi ke saaye mein ho zindagi teri
baabul to dil se de raha dua yahi
khushi ke saaye mein ho zindagi teri

waqt ke saath zakhm ye bhar jayega
pal guzar jaayega tu meri baat maan le
yaadon ke aasre umr katati nahin
hai haqiqat yahi, ab tu jaan le

sumundaron ka paani koi na pi saka
akela khaara jivan koi na ji saka
sumundaron ka paani koi na pi saka
akela khaara jivan koi na ji saka

kehta hai baabul
o meri bitiya
tu to hai mere
jigar ki chitthiya
kehta hai baabul
o meri bitiya
tu to hai mere
jigar ki chitthiya

daakiya koi
jab aayega
tujhko churaake
le jayega

katega kaise lamha
tere bina bata
jiunga kaise tanha
tere bina bata
katega kaise lamha
tere bina bata
jiunga kaise tanha
tere bina bata

By Aadesh Shrivastava, with lyrics by Sameer, from the film Baabul.
