Luka Chuppi

song    - लुका-छुपी
movie - रंग दे बसंती
music - A R Rahman
lyrics - Prasoon Joshi
singers - Lata, A R रहमान
This song took some time to crawl into the back of my head and wiggle its way into the "permanentfavourites" section of my cranium, but now i wonder why it was such a struggle. The effect of the song is, as in most Bollywood songs, due it its context in the movie. An inspired movie, an inspired point in the movie and a song that takes the point and drives it straight into your heart.

Rahman weaves his magic with the tune, but then tries his best to ruin it by singing. Every time I hear his voice I initially cringe, but fix this by singing louder than him, thereby negating the effect of his voice/accent.

This really doesn't need an explanation or a translation, i just wanted to put this down for posterity.


लुका-छुपी
लता:
लुका-छुपी बहुत हुई
सामने आजा ना
कहान-कहान ढ़ूँडा तुझे
थाके है अब तेरी माँ
आजा सांझ हुई मुझे तेरी फिकर
धून्धला गई देख मेरी नज़र
आजा ना

रहमान:
क्या बताऊँ माँ कहान हूँ मैं
यहाँ उड़ने को मेरे खुला आस्मां है
तेरे किस्सों जैसा भोला
सलोना जहान है यहाँ सपनो वाला
मेरी पतंग हो बेफिकर उड़ रही है माँ
डोर कोई लूटे नही बीच से काटे ना

लता:
तेरी राह तके अखियाँ
जाने कैसा-कैसा होए जिया
धीरे-धीरे आकर उतरे अँधेरा
तेरा दीप कहाँ
ढल के सूरज करे इशारा
चन्दा तू है कहाँ
मेरे चन्दा तू है कहाँ

रहमान:
कैसे तुझको दिखाऊन यहाँ है क्या
मैंने झरने से पानी माँ तोड़ के पीया है
गुच्छा-गुच्छा कई ख्वाबों का
उछल के छुआ है
छाया लिए भली धूप यहाँ है
नया-नया सा है रूप यहाँ
यहाँ सब कुछ है माँ फिर भी
लगे बिन तेरे मुझको अकेला

Hazaron kwaahishen Aisi

Song: Haazaron Khwaahishen Aisi
Lyrics: Ghalib
Singer: Jagjit Singh
Album: The Inimitable Composer


Haazaron khwaahishen aisi ke har khwaahish pe dam nikle,
Bahut nikle mere armaan, lekin phir bhi kam nikle.

Thousands of desires, each one to die for,
Many a wish have I realised; yet they werent enough


Nikalna khuld se aadam, ka sunte aae the lekin,
Bahut be aabroo ho kar tere koochhe se ham nikle.

Often have we heard about Adam's exile from Eden,
much more despondent was my exit from your door.


Mohabbat mein nahi hai farq jeene aur marne ka
Us hi ko dekh kar jeetey hai, jis kafir pe dam nikle

There is little difference in life and death when we are in love,
The same infidel sustains our life, for whom we pine to die.

Khuda ke vaaste parda nakaabe se utha zalim,
kahin aisa na ho, yaan bhi vahi kafir sanam nikale

In his presence, take off the veil that hides your deceitfulness
It shouldnt happen that even in heaven, my lover turns out to be you


Kahaan maikhana ka darwaaza Ghalib, aur kahaan waiz,
Par itna jante hain kal woh jaata tha ke ham nikle.

The preacher and the tavern door are things wide apart,
Yet yesterday I saw him enter, as I was coming out.


Haazaron kwaahishen aisi ke har khwaahish pe dam nikle,
Bahut nikle mere armaan, lekin phir bhi dam nikle.

Thousands of desires, tantalizing one and all,
Many a wish have I realised; yet I yearn for more.




This is a true testament to this mans voice and his mastery of it.
also, Notice, he says Khwaahish, not simply khwaaish.
goosepimples. everytime.

Hum Dono

This is a great movie. with outstanding songs.

To truly understand the connection between these two songs, you have to watch the movie.
I cant stand Dev saab, but the plot can turn a ham into a believable actor.


Song: Abhi na jaao chhod kar

abhee naa jaao chhodakar, ke dil abhee bharaa nahee

abhee abhee to aayee ho, bahaar ban ke chhaayee ho
hawaa jaraa mahak to le, najar jaraa bahak to le
ye shaam dhal to le jaraa, ye dil sanbhal to le jaraa
mai thodee der jee to loo, nashe ke ghoont pee to loo
abhee to kuchh kahaa nahee, abhee to kuchh sunaa naheen ..

sitaare zilameelaa uthhe, charaag zagamagaa uthhe
bas ab naa muz ko tokanaa, n badh ke raah rokanaa
agar main ruk gayee abhee, to jaa n paaoongee kabhee
yahee kahoge tum sadaa, ke dil abhee naheen bharaa
jo khatm ho kisee jagah, ye ayesaa silasilaa naheen ..


adhuree aans chhod ke, adhuree pyaas chhod ke
jo roj yoon hee jaaogee, to kis tarah nibhaaogee
ke jindagee kee raah me, jawaan dilon kee chaah me
kaee makaam aayenge, jo hum ko aajamaayenge

buraa naa maano baat kaa, ye pyaar hain gilaa nahee
yahee kahoge tum sadaa, ke dil abhee bharaa nahee



Song:Jahan mein aisa kaun hai


dukh aur sukh ke raaste, bane hain sab ke waasate
jo ghum se haar jaaoge, to kis tarah nibhaaoge
khushee mile humey ke ghum jo hogaa baant lenge hum
mujhe tum aazamao to, zaraa nazar milaao to....zaraa nazar milaao to
ye jism do sahee magar, dilon mein faasalaa nahee

jahaan mein ayesaa kaun hai, ke jis ko gam milaa nahee

tumhaare pyaar kee kasam tumhaaraa gam hain meraa gam
na yoo bujhe bujhe raho, jo dil kee baat hain kaho
jo mujh se bhi chhupaaoge, to fir kise bataaoge
main koee gair to nahee, dilaaoo kis tarah yakeen
ke tum se main judaa nahee, muz se tum judaa nahee




ke tum se main judaa nahi, mujh se tum judaa nahi *sigh*

Tere khushboo mein base khat

This is just a few lines recited by Jagjit Singh

Name : Tere khushboo mein base khat main jalaata kaise
Sung By : Jagjit Singh
Lyricist: Rajinder Nath Rehbar

tere khushboo mein base khat main jalaata kaise
pyaar mein doobe hue khat, main jalaata kaise
tere haathon ke likhe khat, main jalaata kaise
tere khat main aaj ganga mein baha aaya hoon
aag behete hue paani mein lagaa aaya hoon
