Bin Tere Sanam...

This time in India, I got to listen to so many of my favorite songs from the 90s that I almost felt like I was taken back to my teenage years. Thanks to Sbhai, for still keeping them all on his lappy... I not only got to listen to them but watch them too! I can't stop humming my favorite ones from back then and this one is one of them. Silly actors but what fun song it is.. oh my! I love it. The music, singing and lyrics.. all of them.

M: sab sahenge hum aur hasenge hum aa meri zindagi
F: ho ho ho.. aana hi padaa sajnaa zaalim hai dil ki lagi
M: bin tere sanam mar mitenge hum aa meri zindagi
F: ho aana hi padaa sajnaa zaalim hai dil ki lagi

M: aa aa aa.. aa aa aa aa..

M: tum ho mere to ab hai mausam ghulaam apna
F: ho.. shabnam ne likh diya hai phoolon pe naam apna

M: sun hawaa yehi geet ga rahi aa meri zindagi

M: bin tere sanam mar mitenge hum aa meri zindagi
F: ho.. aana hi padaa sajnaa zaalim hai dil ki lagi

Old wine in new bottle

Naino mein badra chhaaye...

Lata Mangeshkar is God! So is Madan Mohan! And Raja Mehdi Ali Khan too. Crazy folks, this lot! They blow my mind away. What music.. what voice and lyrics just out of this world... I can't say it in words. You've just got to listen to it.


(naino mein badra chhaaye
bijali si chamke haaye
aise mein balam mohe garva lagaa le) (2)
naino mein badra chhaaye

madira mein doobi ankhiyaan
chanchal hai dono sakhiyaan
madira mein doobi *major goosebumpy music*
madira mein doobi ankhiyaan
chanchal hai dono sakhiyaan
chhalti rahengi tohe
palkon ki pyaari batiyaan
sharma ke denge tohe
madira ke pyaale
naino mein badra chhaaye
bijali si chamke haaye
aise mein balam mohe garva lagaa le
naino mein badra chhaaye

aa aa.. aa aa aa... aa aa aa...

prem deewaani hoon main
sapnon ki raani hoon main
prem deewaani
prem deewaani hoon main
sapnon ki raani hoon main
pichhale janam se teri
prem kahani hoon main
aur is janam bhi tu apna banaa le
naino mein badra chhaaye
bijali si chamke haaye
aise mein balam mohe garva lagaa le
naino mein badra chhaaye

aa aa.. aa aa aa...
aa aa.. aa aa aa... aa aa..

Ajnabi Kaun Ho Tum...

One of the songs I wish I listened to more often... it's my favorite, mostly for the music and second would have to be Lataji's singing. It's the music that gives this one the goosebumpy haunting kind of feeling to it. You have to listen to it with your car windows rolled down and you driving alone, listening to this one at a speed of 45 miles per hour on a single lane road with no traffic to know what I'm talking about.


(ajnabi kaun ho tum jab se tumhe dekha hai
saari duniya meri aankhon mein simat aayi hai) (2)
ajnabi kaun ho tum

(wow! what beautiful music plays here)

tum to har geet mein shaamil the tarannum ban ke (it sounds like santoor playing here.. such gorgeous tunes)
tum mile ho mujhe phoolon ka tabassum ban ke
aisa lagta hai ke barson se shanaas?? aayi hai
ajnabi kaun ho tum jab se tumhe dekha hai
saari duniya meri aankhon mein simat aayi hai
ajnabi kaun ho tum

khwaab ka rang haqeeqat mein nazar aaya hai
dil mein dhadkan ki tarah koyi utar aaya hai
aaj har saans mein shehnaayi si lehraayi hai
ajnabi kaun ho tum jab se tumhe dekha hai
saari duniya meri aankhon mein simat aayi hai
ajnabi kaun ho tum

koyi aahat si andhero mein chamak jaati hai
raat aati hai to tanhaayi mehek jaati hai
tum mile ho ya mohabbat mein ghazal gaayi hai
ajnabi kaun ho tum jab se tumhe dekha hai
saari duniya meri aankhon mein simat aayi hai
ajnabi kaun ho tum
