Yakeen – Another gem by Atif Aslam

I have always been a die-hard fan of soft romantic numbers and being in love has made me pine harder for these mushy songs..however over the top and sugary sweet they might be!! So had got this album “Doorie” by Atif Aslam. Honestly speaking, except for the song Doorie, I was just not very much impressed with this entire album of Doorie by Atif. The album boasted of 18 tracks but actually has just 9 with remix versions of each and every one of them…so very weird, leaving me disappointed. However this weekend having too much leisure at hand gave it another chance and must say was I surprised to have missed out on 2 wonderful songs. One is “Kuch Is Tarah” and the other one being “Yakeen”. Yakeen is a gem with some amazing lyrics along with his haunting voice. Simply love it!! The video features just Atif rendering the song but the cutie he is, makes the video worth watching! So here is the video:

Video: Yakeen

Album: Doorie

Artist: Atif Aslam

and of course the soul-touching lyrics of this rendition “Yakeen“, which is so very true for me right now cos my sweetheart is away from me and am missing him like anything.

Aaj dil dukha hai
Tum yaad aaye ho
Anjaane log hain
Apne kahan dhoond paaye

Jaage hain soye nahin
Aisi hai meri yeh bechaini
Din bhi wohi, raatein wohi
Saanson mein saansein hain nahin
hmm hmmm

Shaamein ab dhalti nahin
Aanchal jo tera simat jaaye
Aap yahaan hamesha rahein
Doorie rahe na faasle
hmm hmmm

Jaage hain soye nahin
Aisi hai meri yeh bechaini
Din bhi wohi, raatein wohi
Saanson mein saansein hain nahin
hmm hmmm hmm hmmm

Ab agar tum mile toh
Itna yakeen hai
Hans denge hum toh
Rona nahin hai
