Tere Khushboo Mein Base Khat Lyrics in Hindi

तेरे खुशबु मे बसे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे,
प्यार मे डूबे हुए ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे,
तेरे हाथों के लिखे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे,
जिनको दुनिया की निगाहों से छुपाये रखा,
जिनको इक उम्र कलेजे से लगाए रखा,
दीन जिनको जिन्हे ईमान बनाये रखा
तेरे हाथों के लिखे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे, 

जिनका हर लफ्ज़ मुझे याद था पानी की तरह,
याद थे मुझको जो पैगाम-ऐ-जुबानी की तरह,
मुझ को प्यारे थे जो अनमोल निशानी की तरह,
तेरे हाथों के लिखे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे, 

तूने दुनिया की निगाहों से जो बचाकर लिखे,
सालाहा-साल मेरे नाम बराबर लिखे,
कभी दिन में तो कभी रात में उठकर लिखे,

तेरे खुशबु मे बसे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे,
प्यार मे डूबे हुए ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे,
तेरे हाथों के लिखे ख़त मैं जलाता कैसे,

तेरे ख़त आज मैं गंगा में बहा आया हूँ,
आग बहते हुए पानी में लगा आया हूँ

Tere Khushboo Mein Base Khat Lyrics in English with Meaning (Translation)

Tere Khushboo Mein Base Khat Main Jalata Kaise
Pyaar Mein Dube Huye Khat Main Jalata Kaise
Tere Haathon Ke Likhe Khat Main Jalata Kaise
(How do I burn those letters of you which are settled in your fragrance?
Hów do I burn those letters of you that are immersed in love,
How do I burn those letters of you written by your hands?)

Tune Duniya Ki Nigaahon Se Jo Bachkar Likhe
Jinko Ek Umar Kaleje Se Lagaye Rakha
Deen Jinko Jinhe Imaan Banaye Rakha
Tere Khushboo Mein Base Khat Main Jalata Kaise
(Those who wrote by hiding them from the eyes of the world,
Thóse who I kept with me for an age close to my heart,
Those who were like Religion and Faith to me
How do I burn those letters of you which are settled in your fragrance?)

Jinaka Har Labj Mujhe Yaad Tha Paani Ki Tarah
Yaad The Mujhko Jo Paigam-E-Jubaani Ki Tarah
Mujhako Pyaare The Jo Anmol Nishani Ke Tarah
Tere Khushboo Mein Base Khat Main Jalata Kaise
(Whose every word I remembered with flow,
Those who I remembered like a message from your mouth
Those who I loved were like a precious souvenirs of yours,
How do I burn those letters of you which are settled in your fragrance?)

Jagjit Singh Tere Khushboo Mein Base Khat

Tune Duniya Ki Nigahon Se Jo Bachkar Likhe
Saal Ha Saal Mere Naam Barabar Likhe
Kabhi Din Mein Toh Kabhi Raat Ko Uthkar Likhe
Tere Khushbu Mein Base Khat Main Jalata Kaise
(Thòse who wrote by hiding them from the eyes of the world,
Those who you wrote continuously my name year after year
Sometimes during the day and sometimes at the night you get up and wrote
How do I burn those letters of you which are settled in your fragrance?)

 Pyaar Mein Dube Huye Khat Main Jalata kaise
 Tere Haathon Ke Likhe Khat Main Jalata kaise
 Tere Khat Aaj Main Ganga Mein Baha Aaya Hoon – (2)
 Aag Behate Huye Paani Mein Laga Aaya Hoon
(Hów do I burn those letters of you that are immersed in love,
How do I burn those letters of you written by your hands?
Your letter today I have flown in the River Ganga
I have come setting the running water on fire)
