Recording No. 20158
Lyrics: Bashir Badr
New melodic composition
Inspiration: Heard a different version from Bhupinder Singh; I hardly ever hear him but I was wondering what the difference was between him and Jagjit Singh; they started at the same time and had a similar background; but Jagjit Singh took off in a much bigger way.
āñkhoñ meñ rahā dil meñ utar kar nahīñ dekhā
kashtī ke musāfir ne samundar nahīñ dekhā
Reminds me of Kabir's "Jin Khoja" recorded in 2015. One has to drown to know:
jin khoja tin paiya gahre pani baith
jo bhawra duban dara raha kinare baith
Ghazal Lyrics
āñkhoñ meñ rahā dil meñ utar kar nahīñ dekhā
kashtī ke musāfir ne samundar nahīñ dekhā
be-vaqt agar jā.ūñgā sab chauñk paḌeñge
ik umr huī din meñ kabhī ghar nahīñ dekhā
jis din se chalā huuñ mirī manzil pe nazar hai
āñkhoñ ne kabhī miil kā patthar nahīñ dekhā
ye phuul mujhe koī virāsat meñ mile haiñ
tum ne mirā kāñToñ bharā bistar nahīñ dekhā
yāroñ kī mohabbat kā yaqīñ kar liyā maiñ ne
phūloñ meñ chhupāyā huā ḳhanjar nahīñ dekhā
mahbūb kā ghar ho ki buzurgoñ kī zamīneñ
jo chhoḌ diyā phir use muḌ kar nahīñ dekhā
ḳhat aisā likhā hai ki nagīne se jaḌe haiñ
vo haath ki jis ne koī zevar nahīñ dekhā
patthar mujhe kahtā hai mirā chāhne vaalā
maiñ mom huuñ us ne mujhe chhū kar nahīñ dekhā
Singing oneness!
