very nice :k:

one things thats kinda botehring me is last week i saw an old indain move “piyaasa” and the hero was singing a song which was i m sure is the same as this nazm…though he was saying :

“Jinhein Hind par naaz hai woh kahan hein?” instead of:

“sanaa_Khwaan-e-taqdiis-e-mashriq kahaa.n hai.n?”

so, was that one verse just changed for the movie? or is that the right version :konfused:

Thnx a lot BM...
Sahir... is Simply the best :)

And... &Passionate Gi...this is the original one...
"sanaa_Khwaan-e-taqdiis-e-mashriq kahaa.n hai.n?"
