Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho

Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho
Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho
Kya gham hain jisko chuppa rahe ho
Kya gham hain jisko chuppa rahe ho
Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho

Aankhon mein nami, hasee labon par
Aankhon mein nami, hasee labon par
Kya haal hain, kya dikha rahe ho
Kya haal hain, kya dikha rahe ho
Kya gham hain jisko chuppa rahe ho
Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho

Bann jaayenge zeher peete peete
Bann jaayenge zeher peete peete
Yeh ashq jo peete jaa rahe ho
Yeh ashq jo peete jaa rahe ho

Jin zakhmon ko waqt bhar chala hai
Jin zakhmon ko waqt bhar chala hai
Tum kyun unhe chhede jaa rahe ho
Tum kyun unhe chhede jaa rahe ho
Kya gham hain jisko chuppa rahe ho
Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho

Rekhaon ka khel hain muqaddar
Rekhaon ka khel hain muqaddar
Rekhaon se maat kha rahe ho
Rekhaon se maat kha rahe ho
Kya gham hain jisko chuppa rahe ho
Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho
Kya gham hain jisko chuppa rahe ho

Another perennial favourite. A languid, almost conversational piece that has some lovely lyrics. Although the movie has another beautiful song, ‘Jhuki jhuki si nazar’, this one is my favourite. That two ghazal singers composed the music of this movie and sang its songs gives this movie such a lovely, unique flavour. ~ R
