Raqs-e-Bismil: Ishq Main Tere Koh-e-Gham


I don’t need to state the obvious! but lets say it anyway I am totally and completely in love with Abida parveen’s raqs-e-bismil. The music,words,voice and just about everything hits so many chords. The words reflect an undying love for God and submergence to his love and will irrespective of the world.  AMAZING !!

Abida Parveen – Ishq Mein Tere lyrics

Ishq mein tere kohe gham
Sar pe liya, jo ho so ho, (2)
Aish o nishate zindagi,
Chhor diya, jo ho so ho. (2)
Ishq mein tere kohe gham.
Aqal ke madrase se uth, (2)
Ishq ke mae-kade mein aa,
Jame fana o bekhudi,
Ab to piya, jo ho so ho. (2)
Ishq mein tere kohe gham.
Hijr ki jo museebatein,
Arz ki uske rouh-barouh, (2)
Naz o eda se muskura,
Kehne lega, jo ho so ho (2)
Ishq mein tere kohe gham.
Hasti ke is saraab mein, (2)
raat ke raat bass rahe,
Subhe adam huwa namood,
Paon utha, jo ho so ho. (2)
Ishq mein tere kohe gham,
Jame fana o bekhudi, (2)
Ab to piya, jo ho so ho. (2)
