Subject: Sajda: Gham Ka Khazana Tera Bhi
Hi folks
We are at the tail end of our Sajda
journey. Number 14 on the list, a ghazal
by Shahid Kabir, sung by Lata & Jagjit. Enjoy!
Poet : Shahid Kabir
1. gham ka khazana tera bhi hai mera bhi
yeh nazrana tera bhi hai mera bhi
[The wealth of sorrow is yours as well as mine
This precious item is yours as well as mine]
2. apne gham ko geet banakar gaa kena
raag purana tera bhi hai mera bhi
[Make a song out of your sorrows and sing it
The old 'Ragas' are yours as well as mine]
3. tu mujhko aur main tujhko samjhaoon kya
dil deewana tera bhi hai mera bhi
[What will you explain to me & what will I
explain to you
This mad heart is yours as well as mine]
4. shehar mein galiyon galiyon jiska charcha
hai
woh afsana tera bhi hai mera bhi
[In the city's lanes and streets the thing that
is being talked about
That story is yours as well as mine]
5. maikhane ki baat na kar waaiz mujhse
aana jaana tera bhi hai mera bhi
[Don't talk to me about the bar, preacher
You also come and go, just as I do]
Dictionary : waaiz - preacher
