Khilte Hai Gul Yahaan

Been listening to this since a few weeks actually, for of course no one else but Shashi Kapoor and actually I like Kishore Kumar's singing too and while I was at it I realized even the Lata version is beautiful, but for now we only talk about this one because it has Shashi Kapoor.

Notice SK at/in the following scenes: the humming at the beginning of the song, the way he removes the flower from her hair, the way he smiles and blinks his dreamy eyes while doing so, those mile-wide lips, yet again the smile, how his face glows in the light of fire, the way he serves the tea (as if it were cups full of love aah! pure heaven) *drool* the eyelashes and the smile and *DROOL* I need a bib; oh did I mention the smile? yup, that is to die for.

  • the way he turns his hand at 1:34
  • at 1:43 fat girl with blue jacket is so blinded by him she starts drinking tea with both hands, but then again, who wouldn't!? :P
  • watch him from 2:08 to 2:23
  • then again from 2:39 to 2:45
  • and at 2:54 (damn!)
  • and boy! from 3:05 to 4:05 for like whole minute the camera doesn't move away from HIS face (sheer bliss). Awwwww my knees have melted and disappeared somewhere by now.




    Once you come back to reality, here are the lyrics:

    hm hm hm hm

    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko (2)
    milte hai dil yahaan mil ke bichhadne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan

    (kal rahe naa rahe mausam yeh pyaar kaa
    kal ruke naa ruke dolaa bahaar kaa) (2)
    chaar pal mile jo aaj pyaar mein guzaar de
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan

    ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho aa

    (jheelon ke hothon par meghon kaa raag hai
    phoolon ke seene mein thandi thandi aag hai) (2)
    dil ke aaine mein yen tu samaa utaar le
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan

    (pyaasaa hai dil sanam pyaasi yeh raat hai
    hothon mein dabi dabi koi meethi baat hai) (2)
    in lamho pe aaj tu har khushi nisaar de
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    milte hai dil yahaan mil ke bichhadne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan

    F:
    aa aa aa aa aa aa ho ho ho ho

    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    milte hai dil yahaan mil ke bichhadne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan

    (kal rahe naa rahe mausam yeh pyaar kaa
    kal ruke naa ruke dolaa bahaar kaa) (2)
    chaar pal mile jo aaj pyaar mein guzaar de
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    milte hai dil yahaan mil ke bichhadne ko
    khilte hai

    ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho aa

    ho jheelon ke hothon par
    jheelon ke hothon par meghon kaa raag hai
    phoolon ke seene mein thandi thandi aag hai
    dil ke aaine mein yen tu samaa utaar le
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    milte hai dil yahaan mil ke bichhadne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan

    (pyaasaa hai dil sanam pyaasi yeh raat hai
    hothon mein dabi dabi koi meethi baat hai) (2)
    in lamho pe aaj tu har khushi nisaar de
    khilte hai gul yahaan khil ke bikharne ko
    milte hai dil yahaan mil ke bichhadne ko
    khilte hai gul yahaan
