"suhana safar aur yeh mausam haseen, hume darr hai hum kho na jaye kahin..." a line we wish to accomplish when you delve into this blog where the tryst is to ink down great movies and good songs. Hope you enjoy as we do. :)
This has been an exciting journey. To find the rare and most melodious gems of the past and to never forget what Indian music and movies contributed to our lives. I was a fan of the blog and the content until recently, I also became an author. It has been a great joy to find the songs and share them.
Here's wishing you all a very Happy New year. Hope the passion of the Golden Era continues and we promise to bring you more and more great compositions.
Its been a year since I started this blog and soon was joined by a very good friend of mine,Chetan .Since then we have had our ears open so that we can bring to you good songs of different genre,language from the era where real music was played, untouched by gizmos. Canvassing through the songs, we had many that touched our ears,mind and heart :) .Many we have posted and many to come.It was a thorough experience where we met melody ,sargam, raga, in short, music.
To all the lovers of real music, we promise to provide the same this year.For any request on any song/movie, we will be happy to help.We hope you enjoy each post with the same passion as we post it.Enough said ....
"Babu mosai" I say and the whole story of an ailing man living life to the fullest,spreading happiness ,joy and infusing life comes to our mind. He is none but Rajesh Khanna . He got his first break after winning 1965, All India Talent Contest organised by United Producers and Filmfare. A charismatic personality he was and with movies like Khamoshi, Anand, Bawarchi, Kati Patang, Amar Prem,etc he carved a niche be it romance or a social awakening.Many happy returns of the day to Kaka.
Please dont be overwhelmed for...."Pushpa ,I hate tears " :)

kahin door jab din dhal jaye
saanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye chupake se aaye
kahin door jab din dhal jaye
saanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye chupake se aaye
mere Khayaalon ke aangan mein
koi sapno ke deep jalaaye, deep jalaaye
kahin door jab din dhal jaye
saanjh ki dulhan, badan churaaye, chupake se aaye
kabhi yunhin, jab huyi, bojhal saansen
bhar aayi baithe baithe, jab yuhin aankhen
kabhi yunhin, jab huyi, bojhal saansen
bhar aayi baithe baithe, jab yuhin aankhen
tabhi machal ke, pyaar se chal ke
chhuye koyi mujhe par nazar na aaye, nazar na aaye
kahin door jab din dhal jaye
saanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye chupake se aaye
kahin to ye dil kabhi mil nahin paate
kahin se nikal aaye ,janmon ke naate
kahin to ye dil kabhi mil nahin paate
kahin se nikal aaye janmon ke naate
hai meethi uljhan, bairi apna mann
apna hi hoke sahe dard paraaye, dard paraaye
kahin door jab din dhal jaye
saanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye chupake se aaye
dil jaane mere saare bhedh ye gahare
ho gaye kaise mere sapne sunahare
dil jaane mere saare bhedh ye gahare
ho gaye kaise mere sapne sunahare
ye mere sapane yahi to hain apne
mujhase juda na honge inke ye saaye, inke ye saaye
kahin door jab din dhal jaye
saanjh ki dulhan badan churaaye chupake se aaye mere Khayaalon ke aangan mein
koi sapno ke deep jalaaye, deep jalaaye kahin door jab din dhal jaye
Ramanand Sagar: A name ,once heard in every Indian household. The man who halted every household chores on weekends especially 9AM and glued them to the TV watching the epic mythology series of Krishna,Ramayana and many more. This extended even to children with the adventures of Sindbad in Alif Laila.(ohh I miss it..). He was one reason that TV became a part of most houses. A tribute to the genius who bought the Indian heritage to every home. Happy Birthday :)

Mori atariya pe kaaga bole, mora jiya dole, koyi aa raha hai
Mori atariya pe kaaga bole, mora jiya dole, koyi aa raha hai

Mori atariya pe kaaga bole, mora jiya dole, koi aa raha hai
aaj bagiya me aayi bahaar re
o mere jeewan me solah singaar re

Mori atariya pe kaaga bole, mora jiya dole, koi aa raha hai

Mori atariya pe kaaga bole, mora jiya dole, koyi aa raha hai

two,her fragrance.as if she was dipped in perfume )
Teeja ohda Rang Gulabi,
O Kise Gori Maa Da Jaya,
(third,her color ,that of rose
she must be a child of a fair mother)
Ishqe Da Ek Palang Nawari,
Weh Asa Chananiya vich daya,
Tan Di Chadar Ho Gayi Maili,
Os Pair Ja Palgi Paya,
(I made a bed of love,
and laid it in moonlight.
sheet of my body was strained
when she set her foot on it)
Dukhan mere Naina De Koye,
Te vich Harh Hanjua Da Ayaa,
Sari Raat Gayi vich Socha,
Us Aye Ki zulm Kamaya,
(corners of my eyes hurt
overwhelmed with tears
all night went thinking
what I did to deserve this)
Subha Savere Layni Vatna,
We Asa Mal Mal os Navaya,
Dehi De vich Niklan Chinga,
Ni Sada Haath Gaya Kumlaya,
(early morning, with vatna(paste to cleanse skin)
I scrubbed and bathed her.
Embers exuded from her body
and my hands got burnt)
Churi Kuta Ta O Khanda Nahi,
Weh Asa Dil Da Maas Khawaya,
Ek Udari Aisi Mari, -2
O Mud Vatni Na Aya,
O Maye Nee,
Main Ek Shikra Yaar Banaya………… (I crushed the food for her,but she never ate so I fed her with the flesh of my heart. She took such a flight that she never came back O Mother I have befriended a hawk...)

* - i hope you understand the meaning of "Ekaant".. Although I have written "solitude", it has no negative meaning as in "loneliness" and means more like privacy of the couple.
