A beautiful rendition of Naseer Turabi's ghazal by Begum Abida Parveen. Abida Parveen (born 1954) is a Pakistani singer of Sindhi descent and one of the foremost exponents of Sufi music (Sufiana kalaam). She sings mainly ghazals, Urdu love songs, and her forte, Kafis, a solo genre accompanied by percussion and harmonium, using a repertoire of songs by Sufi poets. Parveen sings in Urdu, Sindhi, Seraiki, Punjabi and Persian, and together with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is considered one of the best Sufi vocalists of the modern era.
This song "Wo hamsafar tha" has also been sung by the new rising female vocalist Quratalain Baloch, also known as QB, for the drama "Wo hamsafar Tha" of a private channel of Pakistan "Hum". For sure abida had intriduced this ghazal but the latest revival of the song was by Quratalain Baloch.
Lyrics as of Abida Parveen Song
Tarq-e-taaluqaat pe roya na tu, na main..
Lekin ke yeh kya chain se soya na tu, na main..
Lekin ke yeh kya chain se soya na tu, na main..
