PYAR KABHI EKTARFA HOTA HAI NA HOGA
KAHA THA MAINE
DO ROOHON KEE EK MILAN KEE JUDWAN PAIDAISH HAI YEH
PYAR AKELA JEE NAHIN SAKTA
JEETA HAI TO DO LOGON MEIN
MARTA HAI TO DO MARTE HAIN

PYAR EK BAHTA DARIYA HAI
JHEEL NAHIN KI JISKO KINARE BAANDH KE BAITHE RAHTE HAIN
SAAGAR BHI NAHIN KI JISKA KINARA HOTA NAHIN
BAS DARIYA HAI AUR BAHTA HAI
DARIYA JAISE CHADH JAATA HAI, DHAL JAATA HAI
CHADHNA DHALNA PYAR MEIN WOH SAB HOTA HAI
PAANI KI AADAT HAI OOPAR SE NEECHE KI JANIB BAHNA
NEECHE SE PHIR BHAGTI SOORAT OOPAR UTHNA
BADAL BAN AAKASH MEIN BAHNA
KAANPNE LAGTA HAI JAB TEZ HAWAYEN CHHEDEIN
BOOND BOOND BARAS JAATA HAI

PYAR EK JISM KE SAAZ PE BAHTI BOOND NAHIN HAI
NA MANDIR KI AARTI HAI NA POOJA HAI
PYAR NAFA HAI NA LAALACH HAI
NA LAABH NA HAANI KOI
PYAR AILAN HAI AHSAAN HAI NA KOI JANG KEE JEET HAI YEH
NA HI HUNAR HAI NA HI INAAM NA RIWAAZ NA REET HAI YEH
YEH RAHAM NAHIN YEH DAAN NAHIN
YEH BEEJ NAHIN JO BEEJ SAKE
KHUSHBOO HAI MAGAR YEH KHUSHBOO KI PAHCHAN NAHIN

DARD DILASE SHAQUE VISHWAS JUNOON AUR HOSH-O-HAWAS KI EK AHSAAS KE KOKH SE
PAIDA HUA HAI
EK RISHTA HAI YEH
YEH SAMBANDH HAI -
DO NAAM KA DO ROOHON KA PAHCHAANON KA
PAIDA HOTA HAI BADHTA HAI YEH
BOODHA HOTA NAHIN

MITTI MEIN PALE EK DARD KI THANDI DHOOP TALE
JAD AUR TARAKKI KI FASAL
KAT’TI HAI
MAGAR YEH BANT’TI NAHIN
MATTI AUR PAANI AUR HAWAA KUCHH ROSHNI AUR TAREEQUI KUCHH
JAB BEEJ KI AANKH MEIN JHAANKTE HAIN
TAB PAUDHA GARDAN OONCHI KARKE
MOONH NAAK NAZAR DIKHLATA HAI
PAUDHE KE PATTE PATTE PAR KUCHH PRASHN BHI HAI UTTAR BHI

KIS MITTI KI KOKH THO WOH
KIS MAUSAM NE PAALA POSAA
AUR SOORAJ KA CHHIDKAO KIYA
KIS SIMT GAYEEN SHAAKHEIN USKI

KUCHH PATTON KE CHEHRE OOPAR HAIN
AAKASH KI JANIB TAKTE HAIN
KUCHH LATKE HUE HAIN
GHAMGEEN MAGAR
SHAAKHON KI RAGON SE BAHTE HUE PAANI SE JUDE HAIN
MATTI KE TALE EK BEEJ SE AAKAR POOCHHTE HAIN-

HUM TUM TO NAHIN
PAR POOCHNA HAI-
TUM HUMSE HO YA HUM TUMSE

PYAR AGAR WOH BEEJ HAI TO
EK PRASHN BHI HAI
EK UTTAR BHI !

Ek Bhuli Houi Sii Kahaanii Phir Mujhe Yaad Aane Lagi Hain..

An Echo — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 17:09:31 +0000

Chaand Angdaiyan Le Raha Hain..Chaandni Muskouraane Lagi Hain..
Ek Bhuli Houi Sii Kahaanii Phir Mujhe Yaad Aane Lagi Hain..

Kisne Bikhhraa Diye Aapne Gesoun..Ab Ghataa Aur Chhaane Lagi Hain..
Tauba Tauba Are Meri Tauba..Aaj Phir Dagmagaane Lagi Hain..

Unke Jaate Hii Ye Din Bhii Dekhe..Raat Aansoun Bahaane Lagi Hain..
Chaand Se Ab Nikalte Hain Shole..Chaandni Dil Jalaane Lagi Hain..

Samne Muskouraati Hain Manzil..Paaon Lekin Uthhanaa Hain Mushkil..
Aye Ajal Tu Hii De De Sahaara..Zindagi Dagmagaane Lagi Hain..

Ashk Aankhon Mein Aaye To Pee Le..Dil Jo Roye To Honton Ko Sii Lee..
Aye Muhabbat Tere Aansouon Pe..Ab Hansii Unko Aane Lagi Hain..

Dear A

Yaad to bahut aati hai. But mere mohabbat pe ab tumhe hansi aane lagi hai. Iss liye aankhon ke ashqon ko pee leti hoon aur apne hothon ko sii leti hoon ke kahn meri siskiyon pe bhi tumhe hasi na aane lage.

Rain is here again! One more years passes me by…without me hearing from u- again!

Sawan beeto jaye piharwa
Sawan beeto jaye piharwa

man mera ghabraye
man mera ghabraye

aiso gaye pardes piya tum
aiso gaye pardes piya tum

chein humein nahi ayi
chein humein nahi ayi

mora sayiyaan mose bole na
more sayiyaan mose bole na

mein laakh jatan kar haari
mein laakh jatan kar haar rahi
mora sayiyan mose bole na

tu jo nahi to aise piya hum
tu jo nahi to aise piya hum
jaise soona aangana
jaise soona aangana
nein tihari raah niharein
nein tihari raah niharein
nainan ko tarsao na
nainan ko tarsao na
mora sayiyan mose bole na

Pyaar tumhe kitna karte hein
Pyaar tumhe kitna karte hein
tum ye samajh nahi paoge
tum ye samajh nahi paoge
jab hum na honge to piharwa
bolo kya tab aoge
bolo kya tab aoge
more sayiyan mose bole na

P.S I love You !

It felt like springtime on this February morning
In the courtyard birds were singing your praise
I’m still recalling things you said to make me feel alright
I carried them with me today, Now

(chorus) As I lay me down to sleep
This I pray
That you will hold me dear
Though I’m far away
I’ll whisper your name into the sky
And I will wake up happy

I wonder why I feel so high
Though I am not above the sorrow
Heavy hearted
Till you call my name
And it sounds like church bells
Or the whistle of a train
On a summer evening
I’ll run to meet you
Barefoot barely breathing

(repeat chorus)

It’s not too near for me
Like a flower I need the rain
Though it’s not clear to me
Every season has its change
And I will see you
When the sun comes out again

I guess its easier to say that i would forget him than actually forgetting. I believe no one can forget anything. Not an insult. Not a challenege. And definitely not LOVE! Yet we perpetually try to forget and move on with life. Eventually even if we do succeed to move on with life, we dont forget. It remains in a little dark corner of our hearts. And its our memories tht make us wat we r in the present. Maybe u r cynical and sceptical abt love. maybe u r stronger than b4, emotionally. It can be anything.

I realised i am weak. I cant forget him. i dont know whether i can forgive him though. Maybe yes for i love him too much to hold a grudge against him. I would try to forget him. and move on with my life. Because thts wat we r advised to do. how successful i might be, remains to be seen.

Sometimes i wonder y doesnt time fly away swiftly like it does in movies. A sad melancholic song and immediately after tht u r back in a siatuation which holds a promise of a future together. Films me kabhi yeh nahin bataya gaya ki it would take ages to get over heartache. Or how difficult it is to pass each day without tht someone special.

Bichhde Abhi To Ham Bas Kal Parson
Jioongi Main Kaise, Is Haal Mein Barson
Maut Na Aayi Teri Yaad Kyon Aayi

Honthon Pe Aaye Meri Jaan Duhai

Aur Aahista Kijiye Baatein…

An Echo — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 18:48:31 +0000

Once upon a time … yes it was once upon a time, or rather long long time ago wen i dreamt of falling n love, when i didnt know of all the heartaches of being in love, this is how i dreamt of my love story to be like.

Things didnt turn out the way i dreamt. I loved. He didnt love me back. My love didnt transcend boundaries of class, caste, race etc. It got tangled up in all the politicas of social norms and was stifled, or rather withered away b4 it cud have blossomed. anyway, the past is past. I just request u all those ppl in love, pls for heaven’s sake dont let caste, religion etc matter. Pls! Believe me love is hard to find. Only the fortunate get it. Rest spend their lives either searching for tht special person wud matter to them most n love them the most. A majority of us once we find it try to find ways how to live our lives without it, like i do.

Aur aahista kijiye baatein, dhadakane koi sun raha hoga - 2
Labj girane na paaye honton se, waqt ke haath inako chun lenge
Kaan rakhate hain ye darodiva, raaj ki saari baat sun lenge
Aur aahista kijiye baatein

Aise bolo ki dil ka afasaana, dil sune aur nigaah doharaaye - 2
Apane chaaro taraf ki ye duniya
Saans ka shor bhi na sun paaye, na sun paaye
Aur aahista kijiye baatein, dhadakane koi sun raha hoga
Labj girane na paaye hoton se, waqt ke haath inako chun lenge
Kaan rakhate hain ye darodiva, raaj ki saari baat sun lenge
Aur aahista kijiye batein...

Aayiye band karale darwaaje, raat sapane chura na le jaaye - 2
Koi jhonka hawa ka aawara, dil ki baaton ko uda na le jaye, na le jaye
Aur aahista kijiye baatein, dhadakane koi sun raha hoga
Labj girane na paaye hoton se, waqt ke haath inako chun lenge
Kaan rakhate hain ye darodiva, raaj ki saari baat sun lenge
Aur aahista kijiye baatein

Aaj itane karib aa jaao , duriyon ka kahi nishaan na rahe - 2
Aise ek dusare me gum ho jayen, faasala koi darmiya na rah jaye, na rah jaye
Aur aahista kijiye baatein, dhadakane koi sun raha hoga
Labj girane na paaye hoton se, waqt ke haath inako chun lenge
Kaan rakhate hain ye darodiva, raaj ki saari baat sun lenge
Aur aahista kijiye baatein

Feeling blue… Jane kya chahe mann bavara??!!

An Echo — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 16:19:59 +0000

I too ask the same question!

Jane kya chahe mann bavara ???!!!!

feelin’ blue feelin’ blue feelin’ blue
my heart says can’t be can’t be true

jane kya chahe mann bavara
akhiyaan mere saawan chala

feelin blue feelin blue feelin blue
my heart says can’t be can’t be true

saghan aachal sarabore hove
sajan aasuvan main kya jor hove
kya jore hove apne jiya pe
mann to mhara ye manncahala

jane kya chahe mann bavara
akhiyaan mere sawan chala

pavan purva main yoon udta jave
badra chanda se mann judta jave
aave havaa ka jhoonka fir aaisa
toote patang ki door sa

jane kya chahe mann bavara
akhiyaan mere sawan chala

Ok i know its way too late to wish u all “a very happy new year”, i still wud go ahead n wish u all. So how did u all “celebrate” valentines day? i personally feel instead of treating one day as valentines day, all the 365 days of the year should betreated as a valentines day. And noooo! i dont mean spending on buying gifts. i mean by spending quality time with that special person in ur life. oh n i have decided to “dump” Mr A frm my life. i have spent too many years waiting for tht stupid guy. goodbye Mr A. Ok bring along all those handsome dashing men (bachelors!!!!) all my frnds have been raving abt to get me over Mr A. I finally have time for u, mr prince charming. Sorry to have u waiting. :p

I’m posting two songs frm my current fav hindi movie and mind u i watch very very very few hindi movies. infact i watch very few movies. u ask y. coz i dont get time. anyway, if u guys get time do watch DEV D , its awesome. i liked the new version quite a lot.

Ok, the 2 of my fav songs, though i love the other songs two but these two i have been humming all day. And i cudnt choose bet the two so both of them have to be posted. n yes u ppl have to watch both of them.

O re Piya…

An Echo — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 15:27:42 +0000

O Re Piya Haaye - 3
Udne Laga Kyon Man Baawla Re, Aaya Kahaan Se Yeh Hosla Re
O Re Piya Haaye - 2

Taanaabaana Taanaabaana Bunti Hawaa Haaye Bunti Hawaa
Boondein Bhi To Aaye Nahi Baaz Yahaan Haaye
Sagish Mein Shaamil Saara Jahaan Hai
Har Zarrein Zarrein Ki Yeh Iltiza Hai
O Re Piya, (O Re Piya Haaye - 2), O Re Piya

Nazrein Bolein Duniya Tolein, Dil Ki Zaban Haaye Dil Ki Zubaan
Ishq Maange, Ishq Chaahe Koi Toofaan Haaye
Chalna Aahiste Ishq Naya Hai, Pehla Yeh Vaada Humne Kiya Hai
O Re Piya Haaye - 2, O Re Piya
Piyaaaaa.... Yeh Piyaaaaa...............

Nange Pairo Pe Angaaro Chalti Rahi Haaye Chalti Rahi
Lagta Hai Ke Gairo Mein Palti Rahi Haaye
Le Chal Wahaan Jo Mulk Tera Hai, Jaahil Zamana Dushman Mera Hai Haaye
O Re Piya Haaye...........

Aisa koi zindagi se vaada to nahin tha….

An Echo — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 17:53:46 +0000

Log bahut se vaade karte hai. Aur unhe bhool jate hai…Har vaada nibhaya jaye, aisa vaada to nahin tha.

Aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Ho aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Tere bina jeene ka iraada to nahin tha -2
Aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Ho aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha

Hey tere liye raaton mein chaandhni ugaayi thi
Tere liye raaton mein chaandhni ugaayi thi
Kyariyon mein khushboo ki roshni lagayi thi
Jaane kahan tooti hai dor mere khwaab ki -2
Khwaab se jaagenge socha to nahin tha, socha to nahin tha
Aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Ho aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha

Hey shaamiyaane shaamon ke roz hi sajaaye the
Shaamiyaane shaamon ke roz hi sajaaye the
Kitni ummeedoon ke mehmaan bulaaye the
Aake darwaaze se laut gaye ho -2
Yun bhi koi aayega socha to nahin tha, socha to nahin tha
Aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Ho aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Tere bina jeene ka iraada to nahin tha -2
Aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
Ho aisa koi zindagi se vaadaa to nahin tha
