Jeene lagaa hoon... main mera dil aur tum...

Went on Saavn to listen to new songs and am completely hooked to this one. Out of 15 new songs, this was the only one I actually liked and listened to at least 10 times in last 24 hours. What an awesome melody! Lyrics are also nice and the voice of Atif Aslam = OMG! out of this world! mazaa aa gayaa... picturization is so-so. I think Shruti Haasan looks nice. The guy needs to be on screen more for me to actually start liking. :P It's the music and voice of singers that have made me go gaga over this one. Love it!


M: jeene lagaa hoon pehle se zyaada
pehle se zyaada tum pe marne lagaa hoon

main mera dil aur tum ho yahaan
phir kyon ho palken jhukaaye wahaan
tum sa haseen pehle dekha nahin
tum isse pehle the jaane kahaan
jeene lagaa hoon pehle se zyaada
pehle se zyaada tum pe marne lagaa
Ch: hm hm hm hm ho ho
hm hm hm hm hm hm ho ho

M: rehte ho aake jo tum paas mere
tham jaaye pal yeh wahin bas main yeh sochu
F: (sochu main tham jaaye pal yeh
paas mere jab ho tum) (2)

M: chalti hai saansen pehle se zyaada
pehle se zyaada dil thaherne lagaa
Ch: hm hm hm hm ho ho
hm hm hm hm hm hm ho ho

M: tanhaayion mein tujhe dhoondhe mera dil
har pal yeh tujhko hi soche bhalaa kyon
F: (tanhaayi mein dhoondhe tujhe dil
har pal tujhko soche) (2)

M: milne lage hai pehle se zyaada
pehle se zyaada ishq hone lagaa
Ch: hm hm hm hm ho ho
hm hm hm hm hm hm ho ho

Kasme waade pyaar wafaa..

Hearing the news about Pransahab's passing, I couldn't think of any better song than this to share. The naked truth and bitter reality of life. Mannada has sung is so beautifully. Especially the aalaap in the words that get repeated twice... so very emotional.

Thrilled for they awarded him with the Dadasaheb Phalke award in 2012. Rest in peace, dear Pransahab. Om Shanti.


kasme waade pyaar wafaa sab baatein hai baaton ka kya (2)
koyi kisi ka nahin yeh jhoothe naate hai naaton ka kya
kasme waade pyaar wafaa sab baatein hai baaton ka kya

hoga maseeha (2)
saamne tere phir bhi na tu bach paayega
tera apna (2)
khoon hi aakhir tujhko aag lagaayega
aasmaan ke (2)
udne wale mitti mein mil jaayega
kasme waade pyaar wafaa sab baatein hai baaton ka kya

sukh mein tere (2)
saath chalenge dukh mein sab mukh modenge
duniya wale (2)
tere ban kar tera hi dil todenge
dete hai (2)
bhagwaan ko dhokha insaan ko kya chhodenge
kasme waade pyaar wafaa sab baatein hai baaton ka kya
koyi kisi ka nahin yeh jhoothe naate hai naaton ka kya

kasme waade pyaar wafaa sab baatein hai baaton ka kya

Karvate badalte rahe..

One of my most favorite duet songs of Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar. It gives me goosebumps listening to the music. What mesmerizing music! I think it's tabla and sitar and flute doing it. I also hear shehnayi somewhere in between. Could be totally off there.

And Kaka and Mummu have acted so well. Couldn't have been more perfect than it is picturized. Wish I get a chance to watch the movie some day. I don't remember watching the whole thing in one go. I think Door Darshan played it in early 90s on a weekend.


F: ho ho ho..
M: ho.. ho ho
F: ho ho ho
M: hm hm hm..

F: karvate badalte rahe saari raat hum (2)
aap ki kasam (2)
karvate badalte rahe saari raat hum
aap ki kasam (2)

M: gham na karo din judaai ke bahot hai kam
aap ki kasam (2)

F: yaad tum aate rahe ek hook si uthati rahi
neend mujhse neend se main bhaagti chhupti rahi
raat bhar bairan nigodi chandni chubhati rahi
aag si jalti rahi girti rahi shabnam
aap ki kasam (2)

M: jheel si aankhon mein aashiq doob ke kho jaayega
zulf ke saaye mein dil armaan bharaa so jaayega
tum chale jaao nahin to kuchh na kuchh ho jaayega
dagmagaa jaayenge aise haal mein kadam
aap ki kasam (2)

F: rooth jaaye hum to tum hum ko manaa lenaa sanam
M: door ho to paas hum ko tum bulaa lenaa sanam
F: kuchh geela ho to gale hum ko lagaa lenaa sanam
Both: toot na jaaye kabhi yeh pyaar ki kasam
F: aap ki kasam (2)
M: aap ki kasam
F: aap ki kasam
M: aap ki kasam

Hum tere bin ab... kyon ki tum hi ho...

After I got a recommendation for the songs of Aashiqui 2 from Sayesha, I decided to give them a try and kind of got hooked to this one. I think it was the singing and music that attracted me to it. Arijit Singh's singing reminds me of Adnan Sami's for some reason, in a good way I think. The lyrics are not super impressive but fit in perfectly with the composition giving the song romantic vibe and makes it a fun song. At the end though, I still have to give it to the composer, Mithoon, for the world class music that makes the song what it is - fun to listen to on repeat mode! As always, the song had me wishing for more stanzas. I know I'm greedy, especially when it comes to good songs. :)


(hum tere bin ab reh nahin sakte
tere bina kya vajood mera) (2)
tujhse juda agar ho jaayenge
to khud se hi ho jaayenge juda

kyon ki tum hi ho
ab tum hi ho
zindagi ab tum hi ho
ho ho ho
chain bhi mera dard bhi
meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho

(the music here is so awesome!)

tera mera rishta hai kaisa
ek pal door ganwara nahin
tere liye har roz hai jeete
tujhko diya mera waqt sabhi
koyi lamha mera na ho tere bina
har saans pe naam tera

kyon ki tum hi ho
ab tum hi ho
zindagi ab tum hi ho
ho ho ho
chain bhi mera dard bhi
meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho

tum hi ho (2) (what awesome way has he sung this!!)

tere liye hi jeeya main
khud ko jo yoon de diya hai
teri wafa ne mujhko sambhaala
saare ghamon ko dil se nikaala
tere saath mera hai naseeb juda
tujhe paa ke adhoora na raha

hm hm
kyon ki tum hi ho
ab tum hi ho
zindagi ab tum hi ho
ho ho ho
chain bhi mera dard bhi
meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho

kyon ki tum hi ho
ab tum hi ho
zindagi ab tum hi ho
ho ho ho
chain bhi mera dard bhi
meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho

Saagar ni chaadar... (Gujarati)

When we were kids mom used to sing this lullaby (haalaraDu) to us all the time. After growing up I found out that we weren't the only ones or even the first ones she sang this to. Atulmama, along with all other older cousins also got to hear the same song from her when they were kids. So when Sejalben found the audio clip of the song, she couldn't help but feel nostalgic about it and shared it, passing on the nostalgia to me and reminding me of this beautiful song after years. What awesome lyrics and music!! Best part is that the song is sung in the same sur/raag as the original one I have heard growing up. The lullaby was further personalized by singing the baby's name in place of "sooraj" when it was being sung and to whom it was being sung to. Some songs have special places in heart, this being one of them. :)


(kheele chhe jui tyaare tene gamatu re andhaare ey ey
saagar ni chaadar odhi ne sooraj jyaare poDhi jaay
bhaturiyaashaa taaraliya lai chandaa aabhe ramavaa jaay) (2)

kheele chhe jui tyaare tene gamatu re andhaare ey ey
saagar ni chaadar odhi ne

(Some amazing music plays here. Wish I knew who the music writer is)
