Khoyi khoyi yaadein... sooni sooni raatein...

Since last week I've been wanting to listen to old Sa Re Ga Ma songs from Zee TV and it's been so nice to see young Sonu Nigam and listen to his songs on there along with some really beautiful gems like this one by Shreya Ghoshal. Wish I got to listen to the whole song. It seems incomplete with just one stanza. Has this been sung by Lata ji before? I keep wondering...

hm hm
aa ha ha ha
aa ha aa ha ha..
hm hm hm hm hm..

(khoyi khoyi yaadein
sooni sooni raatein
woh beeti baatein
sapnon ki baaraatein

jab bhi mujhko chhu jaati hai
nam hoti hai aankhen) (2)

das gayi mujhe yaadon ki woh purvaayi
phir rula gayi shaam ki yeh tanhaayi
mere paas aa ke kehte hai suhaane pal
roko aansuo ko laut aayenge woh pal

khoyi khoyi yaadein
sooni sooni raatein
woh beeti baatein
sapnon ki baaraatein

jab bhi mujhko chhu jaati hai
nam hoti hai aankhen

Maine use dekhaa hai...

I just found out that I am going to have a brand new bhabhi and I can't stop smiling... :D Congrats to dearest Dbhai & Jbhabhi-to-be! This song is for the two of you. May God bless you two with all the happiness there is. Love you both.

Many thanks to Seema at OnAirDilSe for playing this beautiful song today. Rahat Fateh Ali Khan sounds so unique and marvelous... music reminds me of some old song, but I can't figure out which one.


phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai (4)
(phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai) (2)
maine use dekhaa hai

phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai

baadalon se guzarte hue chaand ne chupke karte hue
us ke taaron se pehloo mein pichhale paher aankh malte hue
roshani ki taraf neemva khidkiyon se nikalte hue
baagon mein shehron ki galiyon mein
maine use dekhaa hai
(phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai) (2)
maine use dekhaa hai
phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai

(this music sounds so familiar)

jab hawaa rukh badal ne yeh haal? mein ladkhadaane lage
dil ki kaliyon ke kaanon mein bhanwaraa koi geet gaane lage
aur jab khud bakhud dil mein ek aarzoo muskuraane lage
aise hi lamhon ki baahon mein
maine use dekhaa hai
(phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai) (4)
maine use dekhaa hai
phoolon mein rangon mein khwaabon mein
maine use dekhaa hai
