Musing

I have been listening to Jagjit Singh's ghazals since this morning. They were always like this...touching..but there seems to be an underlying unknown feeling with them today. Post CAT Depression?????? I don't think so...or maybe I don't really know.

The two songs..."Tum itna jo muskura rahe ho" and "Koi ye kaise bataye" penetrate right through me. No, not that i am falling for the deep romantic meanings of the song...atleast not in the literal sense.

Here are the lyrics that i would love to quote for the sake of me remembering them forever..


Koi ye kaise bataye ke wo tanhaa kyun hai
Wo jo apnaa tha, wahi aur kisi ka kyun hai
Yahee duniya hai to phir, aisi ye duniya kyun hai
Yahee hota hai to aakhir yahee hota kyun hai?

Ik zara haath badhaa de to pakad lein daaman
Us ke seene mein samaa jaaye, humari dhadkan
Itni kurbat hai to fir faasla itna kyun hai?

Dil-e-barbaad se niklaa nahin ab tak koi
Ik lute ghar pe diya karta hai dastak koi
Aas jo toot gayee phir se bndhata kyun hai?

Tum masarrat ka kaho ya ise gham ka rishta
Kehte hain pyar ka rishta hai janam ka rishta
Hai janam ka jo ye rishta to badalta kyun hai?


I still wonder why is this blog public at all, when I don't intend to provide any community service through it.
