Time for a small prayer!

In these difficult times, how blessed i am in the comfort of my home, waiting for the virus to leave this earth and all i have to do is stay at home.

May Almighty bless us all and keep us safe.

May Almighty help us all who are in pain.

Amen!

tere sang yaara..

thrice in this song, a very beautiful message is conveyed. this person in love is all thanks to almighty for gifting him more than he could have wished for:

ओ करम खुदाया है
तुझे मुझसे मिलाया है

ओ करम खुदाया है
तुझे मैंने जो पाया है

ओ करम खुदाया है
तेरा प्यार जो पाया है

Past tense

once upon a time..

Jitni haseen ye mulakatein thi
Unse bhi pyari teri baatein thi
Baaton mein teri jo kho jaate the
Aaya na hosh mein main kabhi
Baahon mein thi teri zindagi, haaye

unbelievable isn’t it when a few lines can describe the life of someone..

Two in One

This is such a common trend we see in movies that on the same tune one happy and one sad version of a song is sung. Recently i came across two songs from this why was it a hit 😉 movie Kabir Singh with the same theme and as usual i was lost in the lyrics of these beautiful songs:

EcstasyAgony
बात दिल की नज़रों ने की
सच कह रहा तेरी कसम
बात बिगड़ी है इस कदर
दिल है टूटा, टूटे हैं हम
तेरे बिन अब ना लेंगे एक भी दम
तुझे कितना चाहने लगे हम
तेरे बिन अब ना लेंगे एक भी दम
तुझे कितना चाहें और हम?
जिस रास्ते तू ना मिले
उसपे न हो मेरे कदम
जाने किस रास्ते मुझको ले जाएंगे
बेदिशा ये मेरे डगमगाते कदम
इस जगह आ गई चाहते अब मेरी
छीन लूँगा तुम्हे सारे दुनिया से ही
साथ देती मुझे अब मेरी परछाइयाँ
और मेहरबाँ हो रहे ग़म

Love and Hate

I was always confused as to what this song “Agar tum saath ho..” from the movie Tamasha meant and i was quite amazed once i understood the meaning.

So there are these 2 sides actually, the girl and the boy as like in any love story. The girl says:

Pal Bhar Thahar Jaao
Dil Ye Sambhal Jaaye
Kaise Tumhe Roka Karun
Meri Taraf Aata Har
Gham Phisal Jaaye
Aankhon Mein Tum Ko Bharun
Bin Bole Baatein Tumse Karun
‘Gar Tum Saath Ho
Agar Tum Saath Ho

Beautiful isn’t it. Then in the next para there is more detail about this love expressed. But now comes the twist. The guy says this in return:

Teri Nazron Mein
Hai Tere Sapne
Tere Sapno Mein
Hai Naraazi
Mujhe Lagta Hai
Ke Baatein Dil Ki
Hoti Lafzon Ki Dhokebaazi
Tum Saath Ho Ya Na
Ho Kya Fark Hai
Bedard Thi Zindagi Bedard Hai
Agar Tum Saath Ho
Agar Tum Saath Ho

This seriously looks like a long distance relationship expressed with all the frustration by this guy for his girl 😁

Song in a Song

Yes, i am back. Finally got some time to write my heart once again.

You all must have heard so many songs where it starts with a very different note before the actual song begins. Whether it is,
Shining in the settin’ sun like a pearl upon the ocean from Tera hone laga hoo or it is,
Sun zaalima mere saanu koi dar na from Sun mere hamsafar, it’s simply awesome isn’t it. Next time when you listen to a song similar to this, remember there is more depth and meaning to it than other songs!

Sing a song
yes c’mon ding a dong! 🙂

When Love becomes Worship

Every now and then, there are songs which expresses the passion of love in words which time and time again has proved that true love means worship nothing else.

One of the songs which i want to talk about is Sun mere humsafar. There is so much i can talk about the beautiful lyrics of this song, but as of now there is this one stanza i want to share:

Hai nahi tha pata
Ke tujhe maan lunga khuda

If you have someone in your life who loves you to this extent, don’t leave him/her, don’t leave him/her please 🙏🏼. For sure, this love is rare to find in today’s ever changing world!

Now let me take you back in time to a very old song which describes the same thing in yet again such beautiful words. This stanza is from a very popular golden era song, Hum tere pyaar me saara aalam kho baithe hai

Tum pyar ki sundar murat ho
Aur pyar hamari pooja hai
Ab in charnon mein dum nikle
Bas itni aur tamanna hai

Time to freeze Time

Do check the lyrics of this beautiful song from Ed Sheeran, Photograph. I love to dig deep in the meanings of various songs and i was once again mesmerized by the depth of the words in this song. This song covers so many facets of love and if you are/were in love, you will understand it better. I would have loved to copy the whole lyrics of this song, but let it rest with Google!

Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes
But it’s the only thing that I know
Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul
And it’s the only thing that I know, know
Hm, and it’s the only thing we take with us when we die

We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time’s forever frozen still
