Thank god for long weekends 🙂
After a long long while.. here it goes..
There’s this song which has been playing in my head for days now..
Beautiful poetry.. Beautiful song..and the story behind it
Due to some reason, Bulle Shah’s guru is upset with him and refuses to see him. Burning in Viyog, he tries everything to seek his mercy.
Then he remembers his Guru’s love for song and dance. He joins a group of nautch girls and learns to dance and sing.
On an occassion when he knew His Guru would be present, he disguises himself as a women and sings and dance.
Thats when this song was sung..
Tere Ishq nachaya Kar Thaiya Thaiya
Cheti aavin Ve Tabiba, Nahin Ta Main Mar Gaiyaan
Cheti Bawdi Ve Tabiba, Nahin Ta Main Mar Gaiyaan
(Tabiba-Doctor/Vaid)
(come back soon, i am dying without you)
Tere ishq ne dera mere andar kita
bhar ke zeher payala mein te aapey pita
jhabde bhaudi ve tabiba nahin te mein mar gaiyan
( Your love is spread inside me…I, myself, filled the cup with this poison and drank it)
(come back soon, i am dying without you)
Tere Ishq nachaya Kar Thaiya Thaiya
Tere Ishq nachaya Kar Thaiya Thaiya
Chup gaya ve suraj bahar reh gayee aa lali,
Ve mein sadkey hovan, deven mud je vakhali,
Peeran mein bhul gayian, terey naal na gayian
Terey Ishq Nachaiyan kar thaiya thaiya,
(the sun has set now, only glow remains.. I will give my life for one glimpse
Its my fault I didnt go when you called )
Aes Ishq Di Jhungi Vich Mor Bolen Da
Saanu Qibla Te Kaaba, Sohna Yaar Disenda
Saanu Ghaayal Karke Pher Khabar Na Layiyaan
Saanu Ghaayal Karke Pher Khabar Na Layiyaan
(Peacocks sing in the groves of love.
My beautiful beloved is my kaaba, my kibbala)
Tere Ishq nachaya Kar Thaiya Thaiya
Tere Ishq nachaya Kar Thaiya Thaiya
