ishq mujhako nahii.n vahashat hii sahii

How can someone even think so deeply ... :?.. too moved...Spend some time in getting the meaning if you are not every comfortable with Urdu like me.. It conveys a lot. One of the initial writing by Ghalib, with Takalus as "ASAD".. not very famus like many others, not sure if any singer has even covered this. But I personally found it very good encountered it just few days back...
