Lyrics:
हमें कोई ग़म नहीं था ग़म-इ-आशिकी से पहले
न थी दुश्मनी किसी से तेरी दोस्ती से पहले
है ये मेरी बद-नसीबी तेरा क्या कुसूर इस में
तेरे ग़म ने मार डाला, मुझे ज़िन्दगी से पहले

मेरा प्यार जल रहा है, अरे चाँद आज छुप जा
कभी प्यार था हमें भी, तेरी चांदनी से पहले

मैं कभी न मुस्कुराता, जो मुझे ये इल्म होता
कि हज़ार ग़म मिलेंगे मुझे इक खुशी से पहले

ये अजीब इम्तिहान है की तुम्हीं को भूलना है
मिले कब थे इस तरह हम तुम्हें बे-दिली से पहले

Aahat si koi aaye to lagta hai ki tum ho
Saaya koi lehraaye to lagta hai ki tum ho

Jab shaakh koi haath lagate hi chaman mein
Sharmaaye,lachak jaaye, to lagta hai ki tum ho

Raste ke dhundhalke mein kisi mod pe kuchh door
Ek lau si chamak jaaye to lagta hai ki tum ho

Sandal si mahakti hui purkaif hawa ka
Jhonka koi takraaye to lagta hai ki tum ho

Odhe hue taaron ki chamaktee hui chaader
nadiya koi bal khaye to lagta hai ki tum ho

Jab raat gaye koi kiran mere barabar
Chupchap se so jaaye to lagta hai ki tum ho.

Haan maine chhokar dekha hai

Haan maine chhokar dekha hai is a fabulous song from the movie Black. Though the movie doesn't have any song this song was recorded separately. The song has been composed by Monty Sharma and sung by Gayatri Iyer. The composition has a clear impression of Bhansali's musical genius. The beautiful lyrics of the song are written by the lyricist Prasoon Joshi and probably is one of his best works. The lyrics carry the theme of the movie exquisitely. The composition is great, written superbly and sung perfectly. 




Lyrics:

Mausam ki adla badli mein
Pavan gulaabi ho jaati hai
Haan maine chhu-kar dekha hai-2
Raat sarak
kar chalte chalte
Bilkul aadhi ho jaati hai
Haan maine chukar dekha hai-2
Mausam ki adla badli mein

Garam gunguni dhoop se
baat ki hai maine
Paani ke bahne mein
hasee_n suni hai maine
Sab kahte hain deep bujha hai
Lekin baati so jaati hai
Haan maine chhu-kar dekha hai - 2
Mausam ki adla badli mein

Bin dastak ke aaye jo
Woh pyar suna hai
Bin bole man khole
Woh adhikaar suna hai
Lamhon ki ungli thaam ke
Yaadein aangan mein aa jaati hain
Haan maine chhu-kar dekha hai-2
Mausam ki adla badli mein

Thanda thanda ang boondon ka
Mulaayam rang hai phoolon ka
Chubhne wale rang pahan kar
Dulhan saj dhaj ke jaati hai
Haan maine chhu-kar dekha hai-2

Raat ka shauk hai
Raat ki saundhi si khamoshi ka
Shauk hai, ho shauk hai, ho shauk hai
Subha ki roshni
Bezubaan subho ki aur gungunati
Roshni ka Shauk hai, ho shauk hai, ho shauk hai
San sani anwlon ka
Ke ishq ke baawlon ka
San sani anwlon
Ke ishq ke baawlon
Barf se khelte badolon ka
Shauk hai
Kaash ye zindagi Khel hi khel mein kho gayi hoti
Raat ka shauk hai, ho shauk hai, ho shauk hai
Neend ki goliyon ka
Khwab ke loriyon ka
Neend ki goliyan
Khwab ke loriyan
Bezubaan aus ki boliyon ka
Shauk hai
Kaash ye zindagi binkahe binsune so gayi hoti
Subha ki roshni
Bezubaan subho ki aur gungunati
Roshni ka Shauk hai, ho shauk hai
