Dil hi to hai naa sang-o-khist
Dard se bhar naa aye kyun
Royein gey hum hazaar baar
Koi humme sataaye kyun….

Dair nahi, haram nahi
Dar nahi, Aastaan nahi
Bethein hain raah-guzar pe hum
Ghair humme uthaaye kyun….

Qaid-e-hayyaat-o-band-e-ghum
Asal mein dono aik hain
Maut se pehlay aadmi,
Ghum se nijaat paaye kyun…

Haan woh nahi khuda parast
Jao woh bewafa sahi
Jisko ho deen-o-dil azeez
Uski gali mein jayein kyun…

-Ghalib

Ah, one of my favorites from Ghalib...

"Qaid-e-hayyaat-o-band-e-ghum
Asal mein dono aik hain"

PS: the ghazal playing on ur stickam is pretty good as well...have heard it before in more classical mode...wonder who's the singer of this version...

I like
"Haan woh nahi khuda parast
Jao woh bewafa sahi
Jisko ho deen-o-dil azeez
Uski gali mein jayein kyun…"


It's John Glenn.
Btw, who is the actual singer of this ghazal?any ideas?
