Dhoop me niklo, baarish me nahakar dekho

A ghazal sung by Jagjit singh? Beautiful one, and who wrote it? 

tere baare mein, jab socha nahin tha
mein tanha tha magar,
itna nahin tha

When I had not thought of you,
I was alone,
but not as alone as I am now.

mujhko jinhone qatl kiya hai,
koi unhe batlaaye nazeer…
meri laash ke pehloo mein
woh apna khanjar bhool gaye

Someone had better tell the one who killed me… they forgot their dagger next to my corpse.

hoshwalon ko khabar kya
bekhudi kya cheez hai
ishq kijiye phir samajhiye
zindagi kya cheez hai

Those in their senses don’t know what being senseless (intoxicated) is like…
Fall in love, then you’ll understand what life is.

hum labon se keh na paaye
unse haal-e-dil kabhi
aur woh samjhe nahin yeh…
khamoshi kya cheez hai

I couldn’t express to her,
the feelings of the heart.
And she didn’t understand,
what this silence means.
