Dedicated to all of us, who have lost some loved one...

Posted by Farmer on July 16, 2009 at 10:16:59

This is a song/clip which touched and impressed me deeply just since last week, when I got the video/film finally through ebay-auction...it's fairly much sought after & I even got it dirt cheap with Engl subtitles....the movie ties in historical events about the freedom fighter Bhaghat Singh (see my post in journey e.g.)...prior to independance...also at the times of Gandhi...with current problems of India.. corruption

The lyrics are just beautiful to me ....may be it means something to you too...in general I like a bit more the male Indian singers, I can just yet recall one Indian female singer, who wasn't pitched "too high" for my liking...but never mind...minor details...at some point it even has some Italian flair to it (4:40)...the melody that is (actually bollywood music has often many genres mixed in, like Latin influence via Goa)

The music is by Oscar-winner A R Rahman

Hope you can "enjoy it"/feel something for it too...especially since we might all have lost some loved ones:



beautiful...the marriage proposal. 2:50 onward...so sad when just a box of belongings/memories comes back 4:12 onward

Luka Chuppi Bahut Huyi Saamne Aaja Naa
It's enough of hide and seek, come in front of me

Kahan Kahan Dhoondha Tujhe Thak Gayi Hai Ab Teri Maa
Your mom is tired looking for you up and down

Aaja Saanjh Hui Mujhe Teri Fikar
It's been evening and I am worried about you

Dhundhla Gayi Dekh Meri Nazar Aaja Na
Come dear, my eyes became blurred




Kya Bataoon Maa Kahan Hoon Main
Mom, what I can tell about where I am

Yahan Udne Ko Mere Khula Aasmaan Hai
Here I got open sky to fly

Tere Kisson Jaisa Bhola, Salona Jahan Hain Yahan -
Innocent, like your stories, here the world is beautiful

- Sapnowala Meri Patang Ho Befikar Udd Rahi Hai Maa
Mom, here my kite of dreams is soaring high without any worries

Dor Koi Loote Nahin, Beech Se Kaate Na
The string is not stolen, not cut in middle



Aaja Saanjh Hui Mujhe Teri Fikar
It's been evening and I am worried about you

Dhundhla Gayi Dekh Meri Nazar Aaja Na
Come dear, my eyes became blurred

Teri Raah Takey Aankhiyaan
My eyes are watching the way expecting you

Jaane Kaisa Kaisa Hoye Jiyaa
Don't know what my heart feels now

Dhire Dhire Aangan Utre Andhera, Mera Deep Kahan
Slowly darkness is growing into my courtyard, where is my lamp ( kid )

Dhalke Suraj Kare Ishara Chanda Tu Hai Kahan
The setting sun gives sign to me, where are you my moon

Mere Chanda Tu Hai Kahan
My dear son where are you..



Kaise Tujhko Dikhaun Yahaan Hai Kya
How can I show you what is here

Maine Jharne Se Paani Maa, Tod Ke Piya Hai
I have drunk water from the waterfall

Guchcha Guchcha Kayi Khwabon Ka, Uchalke Chuwa Hai
I jumped and touched many bundles of my dreams

Chaaya Liye Bhali Dhoop Yahaan Hai
Here, there is sun and shade

Naya Naya Sa Hai Roop Yahan
This place is very new and fresh

Yahaan Sab Kuch Hai Maa Phir Bhi Lage Bin Tere Mujhko Akela
Mom, here I got everything, still, without you I feel all alone...
