Kabse Hoon Kya Bataon Lyrics

Quasid ke aate aate khat ek aur likh rakhun,
main jaanta hoon jo wo likhenge jawaab mein ... (Wah wah !!)

[ Quasid : Messenger, Postman ]
Kab se hoon kya bataun ..jahaan-e-kharaab mein ..
Kab se hoon kya bataun...jahaan-e-kharaab mein ..
shab haaye hijr ko bhi rakhun gar hisaab mein....

[ jahaan-e-kharaab : This Bad World
shab : Night
hijr : Saperation ]

mujh tak kab unki bazm mein ... aata tha daur-e-jaam.
mujh tak kab unki bazm mein ... aata tha daur-e-jaam,
saaqi ne kuchh mila na diya ho sharaab mein ....
[ bazm : Party/Celebration
daur-e-jaam : Serving of liquor ]

ta-fir na intezaar mein neend aaye umra bhar ...
ta-fir na intezaar mein neend aaye umra bhar ...
aane ka ahad kar gaye aaye jo khwaab mein ..

[ ta-fir : Since then
ahad : Promise ]
Ghalib chhuti sharaab... par ab bhi kabhi kabhi
Ghalib chhuti sharaab ... par ab bhi kabhi kabhi ...
peeta hoon roz-e-abr-o-shab-e-maahtaab mein . .

[ abr : Clouds
shab : Night
maahtaab : Moonlight ]

kab se hoon kya bataun.....jahaan-e-kharaab mein ..
shab haaye hijr ko bhi rakhun gar hisaab mein ... !!!!!!!!!!!
