English Lyrics
Tumko dekha to yeh khayal aaya-2
Zindagi dhoop tum Ghana saaya.
Tumko dekha to yeh khayal aaya-2
Zindagi dhoop tum Ghana saaya.
Tumko dekha toh yeh khayal aaya.
Aaj phir dilne ik tamanna ki–2
Aaj phir dilko humne samjhaya–2
Zindagi dhoop tum Ghana saaya
Tumko dekha to yeh khayal aaya.
Tum chale jaoge to sochenge-2
Humne kya khoya humne kya paya-2
Zindagi dhoop tum Ghana saaya
Tumko dekha to yeh khayal aaya.
Hum jisse gunguna nahi sakte-2
Waqt ne aisa geet kyun gaya-2
Zindagi doop tum Ghana saaya
Tumko dekha to yeh khayal aaya-2
Hmm hmm hmm…
Hindi Lyrics
तुम को देखा तो ये ख़याल आया – (२)
ज़िंदगी धूप तुम घना साया I
तुम को देखा तो ये ख़याल आया – (२)
ज़िंदगी धूप तुम घना साया I
तुम को देखा तो ये ख़याल आया
आज फिर दिलने एक तमन्ना की – (२)
आज फिर दिलको हमने समझाया
ज़िंदगी धूप तुम घना साया…
तुम को देखा तो ये ख़याल आया
तुम चले जाओगे तो सोचेंगे – (२)
हमने क्या खोया, हमने क्या पाया
ज़िंदगी धूप तुम घना साया…
तुम को देखा तो ये ख़याल आया
हम जिसे गुनगुना नहीं सकते – (२)
वक़्त ने ऐसा गीत क्यूँ गाया
ज़िंदगी धूप तुम घना साया…
तुम को देखा तो ये ख़याल आया
हम्म हम्म हम्म …
As I said earlier, I started to enjoy ghazals through the program called “Kahkashaan” on Vivid Bharati. Later, when I started being fond of ghazals in movies, I spotted that most of them which I watched on TV was sung by Jagjit Singh for Farooq Sheikh. So whenever I used to listen to Jagjitji’s ghazal in my childhood, the face of actor Farukh Sheikh used to come to mind instead of Jagjit. This is one of my favorite from those gazals. those lines of my all-time favorite poet Javedji that make sense will catch anyone’s attention who heard this. There will always be someone in everyone’s life who brings shade into their life. I dedicate this ghazal to them on behalf of you.
