tera zikr hai

I feel that pure genius takes SOME time to be noticed and sometimes it is too long that the person dies unnoticed.  Real genius is so engrossed in their works that they do not get time to engage themselves in some lime light. Conclusion – most of the famous people are really not most talented people in their respective fields.  The celebrities are the people who devote enough time to get noticed by various means beside their works.

Same is  true for really good piece of any art work.  This song is one of the example,  unfortunately I missed this movie; I heard a lot about Guzaarish but could not watch it. Being a music lover I keeps my ears open to song anywhere I go, be it bus, car, train, bazaar, street, mall or any other place but I never heard this song anywhere. Ultimately  I stumbled upon this song on internet  …
I am not saying  that this song is   phenomenal  but is far better than many contemporary songs that floated  too high in the air.
It’s a creation of A. M. Turaz a new song writer.  The very first line – TERA ZIKR  AHI YA ITRA HAI
JAB JAB KARTA HOON MAHAKTA HOON……
is  LA-JWAAAAAB.
The  lyric is too simple in words but too deep in feelings.  The music is brilliant and goes with lyrics.  This is a debut music composition by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
Last thing—
OMG! This song  transported me into past in the when I was mad in love with someone whom I called peace of mind but at the same time she was the reason of chaos in the heart.
    I felt the same way - tera zikr hai…
Enjoy the song…
Ke tera zikr hai
Ya itr hai
Jab jab karta hoon
Mehekta hoon
Behekta hoon
Chehekta hoon
Oo ke tera, tera, tera zikr hai
Ya, itr hai
Jab jab karta hoon
Mehekta hoon
Behekta hoon
Chehekta hoon

Sholon ki tarah
Khusbuyon mein dehekta hoon
Behekta hoon
Mehekta hoon
Ke tera zikr hai
Ya itr hai
Jab jab karta hoon
Mehekta hoon
Behekta hoon
Chehekta hoon

(tera zikr hai
Ya itr hai
Jab jab karta hoon
Mehekta hoon
Behekta hoon
Chehekta hoon)

Teri fikr hai
Ya fakr hai
Teri fikr hai
Ya fakr hai
Jab jab karta hoon
Machalta hoon
Uchalta hoon
Fisalta hoon
Paagal ki tarah
Mastiyon mein
Tehelta hoon
Uchalta hoon
Fisalta hoon
Ke tera zikr hai (haan zikr hai)
Ya itr hai (itr hai)
Jab jab karta hoon
Mehekta hoon
Behekta hoon
Chehekta hoon

Miles to go before I sleep

I need not to say much as song itself says too much.

 Lyric by Indivar is thought provoking, singing by Manna Dey is class and music by kalyan ji anand ji goes deep with voice and lyrics.

नदियाँ चले, चले रे धारा, चंदा चले, चले रे तारा

तुझ को चलना होगा, तुझ को चलना होगा

जीवन कही भी ठहरता नहीं हैं

आँधी से, तूफां से डरता नहीं हैं

तू ना चलेगा तो चले तेरी राहें

मंज़िल को तरसेगी तेरी निगाहें

तुझ को चलना होगा


पार हुआ वो रहा जो सफ़र में

जो भी रुका, घिर गया वो भंवर में

नाव तो क्या, बह जाये किनारा

बड़ी ही तेज समय की हैं धारा

तुझ को चलना होगा

Ye dil aur unki ngahon ke saye

It is said that whenever Taansen (one of the Navratna in
AkbarDurbar)  sang “Raag Malhaar” it was
followed by Rain and whenever he sang “Raag Deepak” , it caused  diyas lit. It is exaggeration but reality is
that his music generated feeling of Rain and  light. Today bringing same kind of music that
may make you like you are wandering in valleys filled with romance and freedom
in mind. The lyrics- remarkable for imagination and poetic symbolism by jaan nishar akhtar AND
Lata’s  golden voice make the song
perfect melody but musician jaidev deserves the most appericiation.

Think over the line

 Ye dil aur unki
ngahon ke saye – aftereffect of your gaze on my heart.

ये दिल और उन की निगाहों के साये
मुझे घेर लेते हैं बाहों के साये

पहाड़ों को चंचल किरण चूमती हैं
हवा हर नदी का बदन चूमती हैं
यहा से वहा तक, हैं चाहों के साये

लिपटते ये पेड़ों से बादल घनेरे
ये पल पल उजाले, ये पल पल अंधेरे
बहोत ठंडे ठंडे, हैं राहों के साये

धड़कते हैं दिल कितनी आज़ादीयों से
बहोत मिलते जुलते हैं इन वादियों से
मोहब्बत की रंगीन पनाहों के साये

illahi mera ji aye

The song from the
movie Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani -illahi mera ji aye-

Struck my mind by
its brilliant lyrics by none other but Amitabh , I am talking about- Amitabh
Bhattacharya, music is just a swing and my favorite Mohit Chauhan is there to
give required tempo to the song . Do not forget t listen -  Da da dan dan
dung dung dang...in interlude. Song  is so beautiful that it prompt me to write it
on the paper in devanagiri(I mean hindi script). My Fav. line is –

 kal pe sawaal hai? jina filhaal hai ! (Future
is doubtful, live now)

live in the present

life is always in transition, the time gives no time to stay in present, most of the time , we either think about future or become nostalgic about past. Becoming nostalgic is still a logical thing but   dreaming future is a illogical necessity, otherwise it is very hard to live in a narrow band of present.It seems past and future expand our existence.

 But  actual living is; living in present. No future , no past is comparable with present. Its a gift in hand, past and future are only in mind.  no other song matches this in reminding this.
AAGEY BHI JANEY NA TU... from WAQT IN A mesmerising voice of ASHA..., time less   L lYRICS BY SAHIR and  music of differernt mood  by RAVI .
enjoy in present...
