Mina,
Give this lyrics a read.. and listen to the ghazal too, if you haven't.
Charagh-o-aftab Gum, Badi Haseen Raat Thi
Shabaab ki Naqaab Gum, Badi Haseen Raat Thi
(With the Sun's lamp disappeared, It was very a beautiful night,
with the veil on youth disappeared, It was a very beautiful night)
Likha Tha Jis Kitaab Mein, Ke Ishq To Haraam Hai
Hui Wohi Kitaab Gum, Badi Haseen Raat Thi
(The book in which it was written love is wicked,
the book itself disappeared, It was a very beautiful night)
Labon Se Lab Jo Mil Gaye, Labon Se Lab hi Sil Gaye
Sawaal Gum Jawaab Gum, Badi Haseen Raat Thi
(As lips met lips, lips got sewed into lips,
Answers and questions disappeared, It was a very beautiful night).
