Ajj din chadheya tere rang varga
Ajj din chadheya tere rang varga
Phool sa hai khila aaj din

Rabba mere din yeh na dhale
woh jo mujhe khawaab mein mile
usse tu lagade ab gale
tenu dil da vaasta

Rabba aaya din yeh yaar ke
saara jahan chod chad ke
mere sapne sawaar de
tenu dil da vaasta

Ajj din chadeya tere rang varga

Baksha gunaho ko sun ke duwao ko
rabba pyaar hai tune sab ko hi de diya
meri bhi aahon ko sun le duwao ko
mujhko woh dila mene jisko hai dil diya

Aasmaan pe aasmaan usko de itna bata
woh jo mujhko dekh ke hase
pana chahoon raat din jisse
rabba mere naam kar usse
tenu dil da vaasta

Ajj din chadeya tere rang varga

Maanga jo mera hai jaata kya tera hai
maine kaun si tujhse jannat mang li
kaisa khuda hai tu bas naam ka hai tu
rabba jo teri itni si bhi na chali

Chahiye jo mujhe kar de tu mujhko ata
jeeti rahi saltanat teri
jeeti rahe ashiqui meri
dede mujhe zindagi meri
tenu dil da vaasta

Rabba mere din yeh na dhale
woh jo mujhe khawaab mein mile
usse tu lagade ab gale
tenu dil da vaasta

Rabba aaya din yeh yaar ke
saara jahaan chod chad ke
mere sapne sawar de
tenu dil da vaasta

Ajj din chadeya tere rang varga
Ajj din chadeya tere rang vargaaaa…
Din chadeyaaaa..

Oh ri duniya
surmai ankhon ke pyaalon ki duniya o duniya
satrangi rangon gulaalon ki duniya o duniya
Aalsai sejon ke phoolon si duniya o duniya re
angdai tode kabootar ki duniya o duniya re
aye karvat le soyi hakeekat ki duniya o duniya
deewani hoti tabiyat ki duniya o duniya
khwahish mein lipti zaroorat ki duniya o duniya re
insaan ke sapnon ki duniya o duniya
oh ri duniya
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye to kya hai

mamta ki bikhri kahani ki duniya o duniya
behno ki siski, jawaani ki duniya o duniya
aadam ke hawaas se rishte ki duniya o duniya re
shayar ke pheeke lafzon ki duniya o duniya

Ghalib ke maumin ke khwabon ki duniya
majazon ke un inqalaabon ki duniya
faize firaako saahir o makhdum
meel ki zoku kitabon ki duniya
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye to kya hai

pal chinn mein baatein chali jaati hai
pal chinn mein raatein chali jaati hai
reh jaata hai jo savera vo dhunde
jalte makaan mein basera woh dhunde
jaisi bachhi hai waisi ki waisi bachha lo yeh duniya
apna samajh ke apno ke jaisi utha lo yeh duniya
chut-put si baaton mein jalne lagegi
sambhalo yeh duniya
Kat pitt ke raaton mein palne lagegi yeh duniya
sambhalo yeh duniya
o ri duniya

woh kahe hai yeh duniya itni nahi hai
sitaro se aage jahan aur bhi hai
hum hi nahi hai wahan aur bhi hai
humari har ek baat hoti wahi hai
humein aitraz nahi hai kahi bhi
woh aalim hai faaz hai honge sahi hi
magar falsafa yeh bigad jaata hai jo
woh kehte hai
aalim yeh kehta wahan ishwar hai
fazil yeh kehta hai wahan allah hai
kabur yeh kehta hai wahan eesa hai
manzil yeh kehti tab insaan se ki
tumhari hai tumhi sambhalo yeh duniya
yeh bujhte huye chand baasi chirago
tumhare yeh kaale iraadon ki duniya
aye o ri duniya
oh ri duniya

- OST Delhi 6

Yeh tumhari meri baatein hamesha yuhi chalti rahein
Yeh humari mulakatein hamesha yuhi chalti rahein
beetey yuhi apne saare din raat
baaton se nikalti rahe nayi baat
phir wahi baatein le ke geet koi hum likhen
jo dil ko, haan sab ke dil ko choo le
baatein suro mein yuhi pighalti rahein
baatein geeton mein yuhi dhalti rahein

Geeton mein har gham ko khushiyon se hum saja de
jo sune kahe woh hum se gao na
yeh tumhari meri baatein hamesha yuhi chalti rahein
yeh humari mulakaatein hamesha yuhi chalti rahein
beetey yuhi apne saare din raat
baaton se nikalti rahe nayi baat
phir wahi baatein le ke geet koi hum likhe
jo dil ko, haan sabke dil ko choo le
baatein suro mein yuhi pighalti rahein
baatein geeton mein yuhi dhalti rahein

Its been a while since I wrote anything. A lot has happened in the past couple of days. Life has changed tremendously.

Last month this time I was anxious about the uncertain future. Today, I have a somewhat certain future. Got engaged this month and am scheduled to wed the next. Strange are the ways of life. Earlier the clock was ticking. Now I feel its running, not that I am complaining.

The experience of the euphoric feeling for the past couple of days was so exhilarating that today seems quite alien to me. Today I am back to my introspection mode…

I often feel that there is more to me than what people see. I also feel that there is more to me than what I am aware of. The days I am blank are bliss. The days where I dont even get the time to sit and think how the day went by. The days when life just passes by… with the emotion overpowering me.

I just saw “Into the wild”, that pretty much explains the mood I am in right now. I feel there is a side of me that totally relates to Chris. A side of me that questions this world, its existence, the reason behind it and the sheer possibility of it being capable of being explained. These are the times I am quiet. These are the times when silence seems beautiful. These are the times when only thoughts exist. These are the times when I simply float in them. These are the times when I dont reach out for the phone to call…

The fragility of crystal is not its weakness, but its character.

Didn’t they say that I would make a mistake
Didn’t they say you were gonna be trouble
People told me you were too much to take
I couldn’t see it, I didn’t want to know

I let you in, and you let me down
You messed me up and you turned my life around
Left me feeling I had nowhere to go
I was alone how was I to know that

You would be there when I needed somebody
You would be there the only one could help

I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why’d it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along

Who’d believe that after all we’ve been through
I’d be able to put my trust in you
Goes to show you can forgive and forget
Looking back I have no regrets cause

You would be there when I needed somebody
You would be there the only one could help me

I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why’d it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along

You would be there when I needed somebody
You would be there the only one could help me

- OST Bean, the movie

Like a fool I went and stayed too long
Now I’m wondering if your love’s still strong
Ooh baby
Here Iam, signed, sealed delivered I’m yours

Then that time I went and said good-bye
Now I’m back and not ashamed to cry
Ooh baby
Here I am, signed, sealed delivered
I’m yours

Here I am baby
Oh, you’ve got the future in your hand
(Signed, sealed delivered, I’m yours)
I’ve done a lot of foolish things
That I really didn’t mean
Hey, hey, yea, yea, didn’t I, oh baby

Seen a lot of things in this old world
When I touched them they did nothing, girl
Ooh baby
Here I am, signed sealed delivered
I’m yours, oh I’m yours

Oo-wee babe you set my soul on fire
That’s why I know you are my only desire
Ooh baby
Here I am, signed, sealed delivered
I’m yours

Here I am baby
Oh, you’ve got the future in your hand
(Signed, sealed delivered, I’m yours)
Here I am baby
Oh, you’ve got the future in your hand
(Signed, sealed delivered, I’m yours)
I’ve done a lot of foolish things
That I really didn’t mean
I could be a broken man but here I am

With your future, got your future babe
(Here I am baby)
Here I am baby
(Signed, sealed delivered, I’m yours)

-By Stevie Wonder from OST You’ve Got Mail

Kabhi to kuch aisa hi hua tha
neend mein thi jab tumne chua tha
girte girte baahon mein bachhi main
sapne par paon pad gaya tha
sapno mein behne do
pyaasi hoon mein pyaasi rehne do na

tumne to akash bichaya
mere nange pairon mein zameen hai
kaante bhi tumhari arzoo hai
shayad aise zindagi haseen hai
arzoo mein behne do
pyaasi hoon mein pyaasi rehne do na

halke halke kohre ke dhuyein mein
shayad asmaan tak aa gayi hoon
teri sooni baahon ke sahare
dekho to kaha tak aa gayi hoon
kohre mein behne do
pyaasi hon mein pyaasi rehne do

katra katra milti hai
katra katra jeene do
zindagi hai behne do
pyaasi hoon main
pyaasi rehne do

Aaj shab jo chand ne hai roothne ki thaan li
gardishon mein hai sitaare baat humne maan li
andheri syah zindagi ko soojhti nahi gali
ki aaj haath thaam lo ek haath ki kami khali
kyon khoye khoye chand ki firaak mein
talaash mein udaas hai dil
kyon apne aap se khafa khafa
zara zara sa naraaz hai yeh dil
yeh manzile bhi khud hi tey kare
yeh faasle bhi khud hi tey kare
kyon to raaston mein phir seham seham
sambhal sambhal ke chalta hai yeh dil
kyon khoye khoye chand ki firaak mein
talaash mein udaas hai dil

zindagi sawaalon ke jawaab dhundne chali
jawaab mein sawaalon ki ek lambi si ladi mili
sawaal hi sawaal hai soojhti nahi gali
ki aaj haath thaam lo ek haath ki kami khali
jee mein aata hai murda sitaare noch lun
idhar bhi noch lun udhar bhi noch lun
ek do ka zikar kya main taare noch lun
sitaare noch lun main saare noch lun
kyon tu aaj itna vehashi hai
mizaaj mein majaaz hai aye gham-e-dil
kyon apne aap se khafa khafa
zara zara sa naraaz hai yeh dil
yeh manzile bhi khud hi tey kare
yeh faasle bhi khud hi tey kare
kyon to raaston mein phir seham seham
sambhal sambhal ke chalta hai yeh dil
kyon khoye khoye chand ki firaak mein
talaash mein udaas hai dil

dil ko samjhaana keh do kya asaan hai
dil to fitrat se sun lo na be-imaan hai
yeh khush nahi hai jo mila bas mangta hi hai chala
jaanta hai har lagi ka dard hi hai bas ek sila
jab kabhi yeh dil laga dard hi hume mila
dil ki har lagi ka sunlo dard hi hai ek sila
kyon naye naye se dard ki firaak mein
talaash mein udaas hai dil
kyon apne aap se khafa khafa
zara zara sa naraaz hai yeh dil
yeh manzile bhi khud hi tey kare
yeh faasle bhi khud hi tey kare
kyon to raaston mein phir seham seham
sambhal sambhal ke chalta hai yeh dil
kyon khoye khoye chand ki firaak mein
talaash mein udaas hai dil

Laaga chunari mein daag title track is on repeat mode since I returned from the movie. I took a liking for this very different yet strong song sung by Shubha Mudgal with Mita Vashisht reciting pure hindi verses in the background that very moment. Awesome I must say, if you havent had the chance to hear it. This is one song that I havent heard on radio and I dunno why they prefer to play “hum to aise hai bhaiya” or ” kachchi kaliyan mat todo” over this title track which is a soul stirring number.

I dont know what is it about this song but I quite like it. I guess it is the subtle mix of helplessness and the strong streak of a willingness to face it all.

And Vinnie is quite right. All my past posts for a while are a sign of my weakness. And if thats the case, I make the beginning today to get out of that mode.

Jaage hain der tak humein kuch der sone do
thodi si raat aur hai subah to hone do
aadhe adhure khwaab jo poore na ho sake
ek baar phir se neend mein woh khwaab bone do
