Nundebon is a melody about the highest level of love written by the three of the most celebrated poets of the subcontinent, Rasul Mir, Mirza Ghalib & Ameer Khusrau.
Nundebon talks about how seclusion can be beautiful and how slowly life gets filled with with colours if one remains patient. Also, how the superlative of love is devotion and dedication.
Nundebon depicts an artist’s real need i.e. appreciation, love and support more than anything else in the world.

Lyrics

Nunde’bon

Khosh yiwun nundebon wesiye myeon su dilbar aawnai
Thar thar cham mar bhe shayad shar mei jigras drawnai
Prepossessing & enchanting, dear friend, did my beloved not come?
My heart flutters, my desires seem unfulfilled, I may die!

Sui me roothum aash yemsenz shab o roz aesem dilas
Rasuli wanto kas che roothuk wani kumu mane naawnai
My beloved who I hoped for days and nights is now upset
O Rasul! Ask yourself who are you upset with and how to reconcile?

Ishq ne pakda na tha Ghalib abhi wehshat ka rang
Rehgaya tha dil mein jo kuch zauq e khwari haaye haaye
My love had not yet reached the stage of sheer insanity
Heart yearned, unfulfilled, for the union's ecstasy

Dard se mere hai tujhko beqarari haaye haaye
Kya hui zaalim teri gaflat shiyari haaye haaye
Now for my pain you feel the pangs of unadorned restlessness
O tyrant! What has happened to your credo of callousness?

Khalq mi goyad ki Khusrau but parasti mi kunad
Aarey aarey mi kunam ba khalq mara kaar neest
The people of the world say Khusrau worships idols
So he does, so he does; the people does not need, the world he does not need

Kaafir e ishqam musalmani mara kaar neest
Har ragey mun taar gashta hajat e zunnar neest
I am pagan and a worshipper love: the creed (of muslims) i do not need;
Every vein of mine has become taunt like a wire, the (Brahman's) girdle I do not need.
