Nazm uljhi hui hai seene meiN – Gulzaar

A beautiful beautiful beautiful Nazm (3 times — love the emphasis no?)
And so beautifully sung by Bhupinder in this video:

nazm uljhi hui hai seene meiN
misre aTke hue haiN hoNToN par
uRte phirte haiN titliyoN ki tarah
lafz kaaGhaz pe baiTh_te hi nahiiN

kab se baiTha hua houN maiN jaanam
saada kaaGhaz pe likh ke naam tera
bas tira naam hi mukammil hai
is se behtar bhi nazm bhi kyaa hogi!

Heer-Ranjha — The BILZ & Kashif

The BILZ & Kashif have come out with two new tracks recently, one of which was written by me (the Punjabi Lyrics that is), so ideal to post the song here and .. voila:

You can go ahead and buy the tune on iTunes, in fact get on it right now and buy it! Oh and look out for more songs written by yours truly for The BILZ & Kashif… their next album “Breaking Barriers” is rocking!

Here are the punjabi lyrics for the song (I’ll have to ask Kashif to give me a copy of the English lyrics so that I can post them here as well):

tu hai meri heer tera ranjha maiN deewaana
roke saanu koi vi roke, tenu chak lai jaanaa
roke saanu koi vi roke, tenu chak lai jaanaa

mitro o mitro vekho vekho kuRi diwaani
kinna mainu taRpaaNdi kinna mainu satauNdi
soni hai phabbat oNdi akhaaN vi maTkaundi
turdi o geet hai lagdi nachdi oNdi jawaani

[Kashif's part here]

tu hai meri heer tera ranjha maiN deewana
roke saanu koi vi roke tenu chak lai jaanaa
roke saanu koi vi roke tenu chak lai jaanaa

sajno o sajno vekho vekho kuRi diwani
haNsdi jad khil khil rabba dil nu mere sataundi
nachdi jad naal mere ishq di chaldi aaNdhi
mitro o mitro vekho mere dil di raani!

[Kashif's part]

tu hai meri heer tera ranjha maiN diwaana
roke saanu koi vi roke tenu chak lai jaanaa
roke saanu koi vi roke tenu chak lai jaanaa

mili Khaak meiN muhabbat …

Another gem of a song from Chaudhvin Ka Chand. Guru Dutt, my goodness, what an actor he was. Selecting the best lyrics, the most amazing music, and just the stories that stir your heart and soul. Listen to the words of this masterpiece:

jinhe naaz hai hind par vo kahaan hain

This nazm is an absolute beauty.  An image of our world – as it was and as it is now.  You can find the transcript of this nazm at my site www.sahirludhianvi.com but here’s a video of the song from the movie pyasa sent to me by a reader of Sahir Ludhianvi blog (Thanks Ashwin).
