Ali Zafar made his debut as a musician with the album "Huqa Pani", released in Pakistan in 2003 and worldwide in 2005. The album was an instant hit, selling over five million copies worldwide and winning several major awards and nominations. It also put Ali into the league of the most popular artists ever to have come out of Pakistan with a massive fan following locally and internationally. Ali has been to 11 different countries worldwide and has performed at more than almost 200 shows infront of thousands of fans from all over the globe. In so little time and such young age Ali has one album to his credit and has won the hearts of millions with his multi faceted personality and the magical voice and is all set to rock the world with his second album “Masty”.
"I had a dream. That dream became reality in 2003 with the huge success of my first album “Huqa Pani”. It was the fulfillment of that dream that made me realize that we only dream what is real. Nothing exists that can only be imagined and not achieved one day. It’s all about working hard and putting the right things at the right time in their right place. For this we’re nurtured with the appetite of hope. But I learned that it’s not only about working hard and putting the right things at the right time in their right place. It’s about Faith. The moment you lose it, it loses you. Your dreams start looking unreal, too big for you. In the course of working day and night on the album traveling to different studios in different countries working with all sorts of people, good and bad, nasty and nice, liars and honest ones, I sometimes almost dropped in disappointment and fatigue thinking to myself that it’s not worth it. But what kept me going was faith. Faith in God. This album is about that and the realization of our dreams that follows. If my music helps one single soul to accomplish his dream, my job is done. Love to all." - Ali Zafar
ek pal
Ali Zafar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
तो क्या जो तेरी याद में जाए गुज़र
सोए ज़मीन और आसमान जब रात हो
और जागू तेरी याद में
मैं रात भर
तू ये जाने ना
तेरी याद में जाने जान
मैं वाहा अब तू जहाँ
सोचा ये तूने क्या कभी
ए बेख़बर
के चाहु तुमको हर घड़ी
मैं किस क़दर
हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो
हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो
हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो
The lyrics of the song "Ek Pal" by Ali Zafar can be interpreted to reflect the fleeting and transient nature of life. The first line, "Hmmm yeh zindagi ek pal ka hai safar" translates to "Hmm, this life is a journey of just a moment." It suggests that life is short and unpredictable, emphasizing the need to make the most of every moment.
The second line, "Toh kya jo teri yaad mein jaaye guzar" translates to "So what if time passes in your memory." Here, the singer is expressing the idea that even though time may pass, memories of loved ones continue to be cherished and hold significance. It signifies the power of memories to transcend time and make a lasting impact.
The subsequent lines, "Soye zameen aur aasmaan jab raat ho, aur jaagu teri yaad mein main raat bhar" express the feeling of being unable to sleep at night when memories of a loved one flood the mind. It showcases the longing and yearning to be in the presence of the person who is deeply missed. The repetition of "ho ho ho" emphasizes the emotional turmoil and intensity of those feelings.
The final lines, "Maine chhoda yeh jahaan, main wahaan ab tu jahaan" translate to "I left behind this world, now I am where you are." The singer suggests that their longing for their loved one has become so strong that they feel detached from the world and have found solace in being where their loved one is. It represents a sense of finding refuge in memories and the emotional connection that transcends physical distance.
In summary, these lyrics convey the transient nature of life, the significance of memories, and the intense longing for a loved one. It reflects the emotional depth and the power of memories to shape our experiences and perceptions of the world. The repetitive lines and the emotional tone of the song evoke a sense of yearning and nostalgia.

ह्म्म्म्म ये ज़िंदगी एक पल का है सफ़र
Oh, this life is just a journey of one moment
तो क्या जो तेरी याद में जाए गुज़र
So what if it passes by in your memory?
सोए ज़मीन और आसमान जब रात हो
When the night falls, both the land and the sky slumber
और जागू तेरी याद में मैं रात भर
And I stay awake all night in your memory
तू ये जाने ना तेरी याद में जाने जान
You may not know, but I lose myself in your memory
मैने छोड़ा ये जहाँ मैं वाहा अब तू जहाँ
I left this world, now you are there
सोचा ये तूने क्या कभी ए बेख़बर
Have you ever thought, oh unaware one?
के चाहु तुमको हर घड़ी मैं किस क़दर
How much I desire you every moment
हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो हो
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

Something very unique about this song. I had subscribed to Ali Zafar's channel way back in time but just stumbled upon this amazing piece of art just today. Mesmerizing melody, lyrics, visuals, and the moment where Ali cries, I think he is not acting or it's not staged, he is actually crying, it was so real. Thank you and god bless <3
