Teri yaadein: A love story

Teri yaadein, mulakaatein,
woh raatein aur baatein
teri sansein, woh baahein
ab mujhko yaad aaye
tere bina mera jiya sataaye kyon piya
yaadon ne teri mujhpe yeh jaado kiya re

teri sansein, woh baahein
ab mujhko yaad aaye
woh adaon ki ghatayein
mere dil ko choo jaye
pyare yeh duniya saari mene
hai tujhpe waari
dil ne, mere dil ne
tujhse yaari ki, baazi haari

tere khayaalo mein bas tum
meri nigaahon mein bas tum
wapas aa jao
mere paas tum sada
wapas aa jao

soona mera jahan
bhoola main hoon kaha jaata
hai jaan-e-jaan tera rahoon piya
wapas aa jao
mere paas tum sada
wapas aa jao

piya tera jiya
tu hai kahan
tera karoon intezaar
tu mere dil ka karaar
itna hai aitbaar
manoonga na main bhi haar

Ke bin tere jeena nahi…

Bheed mein bhi hum tanha rahe
Tere gum ne yeh halat kar di
Kabhi khud ke liye kuch soch sake
Itni bhi nahi fursat di

Aankhon ke talash jo hai
Woh hai tera chehra
Dhadkan dil ke paas to hai
Lekin hai bewajah
Mein hoon shaakh se ab koi patta toota hua
Mujhko yeh hawaein bulaati re har jagah

Ke bin tere jeena nahi
Haan bin tere jeena nahi
Na bin tere jeena nahi
Ja bin tere jeena nahi

Chahe jitne bhi aanson bahe
Saansein seene mein chubhti rahe
Muskura kar har gum sahe
Dil se ho kam kabhi na yeh dard tera
Phool jaisa lage har zakhm tera
Ek mujhko to jeena nahi
Ke bin tere jeena nahi

Teri yaadon mein har pal kate
Khud se teri hi baatein karein
Dil ek gaon sa banjar rahe
Humko manzoor hai har sitam tera
Berukhi bhi teri bewafapan tera
Jaam kushiyon ka peena nahi
Ke bin tere jeena nahi

Awesome work by Sayeed Quadri in the movie Aggar

What will letting go mean?

Found some idea online and worked on it.

Letting go will not mean that I stop caring
it would just be that I would stop showing
Letting go will not lead to me cutting myself off from you
its just the realisation that I cant control your feelings
Letting go would mean learning from the reality
even when its pretty late in the day
Letting go will mean accepting the supreme power’s verdict
realising that the outcomes were never in my hands anyways
Letting go will not mean that I would change myself
it would be me trying to make the most of myself
Letting go will not mean that I would leave it all on destiny
infact it will allow me to find mine with the passage of time
Letting go will not mean that I would judge the person
but I will create space for the other to face reality
Letting go will not mean that I would point fingers
but instead, I would do my soul searching
Letting go will not mean that I would deny the reality
but I would accept it and try to become what I dream I can be
Letting go will not mean that I regret the past
instead that I cherish it but live in the future

This is what I call romance!!

No lip singing, just a background score, when Dev Anand is about to die and meets Waheeda Rehman when he fasts for 12 continuous days in the movie Guide. Mohd. Rafi at his best.

Tere mere sapne ab ek rang hai
ho jahan bhi le jaaye raahien hum sang hai

lakh mana le duniya saath na yeh chootega
aake mere haathon mein haath na yeh chootega
o mere jeevan saathi

tere mere sapne ab ek rang hai
ho jahan bhi le jaaye raahien hum sang hai

Yeh aakhri alvida na ho

Dhadkane khamosh hai kuch kehti nahi
yeh aakhri alvida na ho
chahate ankhon se behti nahi
yeh akhri alvida na ho
is dard ko dil mein, dil mein rehne do
jo khauf hai, ankhon se, ankhon se kehne do
dukh ki nadi chup chaap behne do
jo kehna hai tum dheere se kehdo
yeh aakhri alvida na ho…

sab yaad hai jo bandh ke bandhan
kaajal bindiya haathon mein kangan
behki rahti thi mehndi
gaata rehta tha saawan
in yaadon ko sapno mein rehne do
yeh aakhri alvida na ho…

Saiyyan – Kailasa Jhoom re: Kailash Kher

Heerey moti main na chahoon
main to chahoon sangam tera
main to teri saiyyan tu hai mera
Saiyyan Saiyyan

Tu jo choo le pyar se araam se marr jaun
aaja chanda bahoon mein, tujh mein hi gum ho jaun
tere naam mein kho jaun
Saiyyan Saiyyan

Mere dil khushi se jhoomein gaayein raat din
pal pal mujhe dubayein raatein jag kar
tujhe jeet jeet haroon, yeh pran pran vaaru
haye aise main nihaarun, teri aarti utaaron
tere naam se jude hai saare naate
Saiyyan saiyyan

Anyone at all

I remember having heard this song last year in September and had felt it to be so true for me. Its been 8-9 months now and it still feels the same. Still makes me smile…

Funny how I feel more myself with you
Than anybody else that I ever knew
I hear it in your voice, see it in your face
You’ve become the memory I can’t erase

You could have been anyone at all
A stranger falling out of blue
I’m so glad it was you

Wasn’t in the plan not that I could see
Suddenly a miracle came to me
Safe within your arms I can say what’s true
Nothing in the world I would keep from you
