A song with lyrics by Gulzar, which I like quite a bit, music by the inimitable R. D. Burman and vocals by the one and only Kishore Kumar can be listened to at http://www.radioreloaded.com/tracks/?14942

The voice-over towards the end is by Gulzar himself.

Raza, hehe BTW, Triveni is masterpiece by Gulzar. Only he could do something like that.

Thank you Raza!

The melody is haunting, to say the least! I am sure the lyrics match the soulful quality of the music amid which they are rendered.
Thanks for sharing.

she’s not Rekha.

Gulzar Saab is genius of his own kind. the way he used Urdu “Ista’ray” is quite amazing. I have his book “Raat pashmeenay ki” which is quite wonderdul. His famous ghazal/[then song] “Is Morh se jatey hain Kuch sust Qadam Rastay” is of its own kind. thanks for reminding me his work. between gulzaronline.com is official website of Gulzar sb maintained by his fans.

Gulzaar Sahib is amazing. He can be as wonderful in writing catchy film musicals as in writing such kind of poetry as you have posted here. I feel grateful to be living during his times. This one from Ijazat is simply great.

Gulzar’s poetry has a certain ethereal quality, besides a touch of surrealism that I admire immensely.

The lyrics that he has written for film-songs often exhibit these qualities in abundance. A case in point, like the video posted here and numerous others, is the following:

Shaam ko khiRki se chori-chori naNgay paaoN chaand aayega
GaliyoN se aayega, seeti bajaayega
Neem ke peR se paas bulaayega
