Teri surat

Koi baat chale --Jagjit singh and Gulzar....

Have been listenning to this album for quite some time now, have been humming one of the ghazal uthte baithe sote jaagte i think it strikes me somewhere and i love it ...so thought of finding the words and singing it completely.In the process adding it to the blog.

Teri surat jo bhari rehti hai, ankhoon main sadaa,
ajnabi log bhi pehchane se, lagte hain mujhe,
tere rishtoon main to, duniya hi piroo li maine

Ek se ghar hain sabhi, ek se hain bashende,
ajnabi shehar main, kuch ajnabi lagta hi nahin,
ek se dard hain, sab ek se hi rishtey hain

Umar ke khel main, ek tarfa hai yeh rashtakashi,
ek siraa mujh ko diya hota to, kuch baat bhi thi,
mujhse tagda bhi hai, aur saamne aata bhi nahin

Saamne aaye mere, dekha mujhe, baat bhi ki,
muskurai bhi purane, kissi rishtey ke liye,
kal ka akhbaar tha, baas dekh liya, rakh bhi diya

Woh mere saath hi tha doorr tak magar ek din,
mudd ke jo dekha, too woh aur mere saath naa tha
jaib phat jaye, to kuch sikke bhi khoo jaate hain..

Chaudvien chand ko phir, aag lagi hai dekho,
phir bahut der talak aaj, ujaala hoga,
rakh ho jayega, jab phir se ammavas hogi

Gulzar
