نامور گلوکارہ نیرہ نور کا انتقال موسیقی کی دنیا کے لیے ایک نا قابل تلافی نقصان ہے۔ وہ اپنی آواز میں ترنم اور سوز کی وجہ سے خاص پہچان رکھتی تھیں۔ غزل ہو یا گیت جو بھی انہوں نے گایا کمال گایا۔ان کی وفات سے پیدا ہونے والا خلا کبھی پُر نہیں ہوگا۔ اللہ تعالی مرحومہ کو جنت میں جگہ دے۔

What a magical piece of our childhood Nayyara Noor was. Milli naghma, ghazal, geet…she sang some of the best of all these genres, her melodious voice nearest in texture to the ultra-feminine trill of her Hindi film contemporaries. #NayyaraNoor
