बोल के लब आजाद हैं तेरे
बोल ज़बान अब तक तेरी है
तेरा सुतवां जिस्म है तेरा
बोल के जान अब तक तेरी है
देख के आहंगर की दूकान में
तुंद हैं शोले सुर्ख है आहन
खुलने लगे कुफ्लों के दहाने
फैला हर एक ज़ंजीर का दामन
बोल ये थोरा वक़्त बहुत है
जिस्म-ओ-जुबां की मौत से पहले
बोल के सच ज़िंदा है अब तक
बोल जो कुछ कहना है कह ले
सुतवां - well built आहंगर - blacksmith
आहन - iron कुफ्लों - locks
Irresistible Faiz... did I say how much I like his poetry?
Sagar, don't go looking for Tina Sani's version of this one. It's pretty non-inspiring.
ReplyDeleteanother good one... thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteSee, I had already heard this one... One of the 16 songs I downloaded of Tina's. And I did not like it. I mean, it did not have a Ghazal feel, rather it had a modern touch. Perhaps good experimentation on her part, but I did not enjoy it. I noticed the words only now & yes... Faiz does not fail us, once again! :-)
ReplyDeleteHey, why did u delete the "blog-archive" list? I mean now if I have to go to an older song, I need to go back page by page or 'guess' the month when it was posted! I do love 'Dhun', but expecting me to remember the month each song was posted is a little too much :P :-)
ReplyDeleteYea, it was a super dull song, no verve in it! But I liked the poem, or maybe I am just Faiz-biased :) He is my favorite urdu poet... or make that just favorite poet.
ReplyDeleteFixed your complaint :) See, do I have customer service or what?
Wow! 'Feature-on-demand'... super-cool ;-)
