OK, I must admit I am running out of adjectives in praise of Indian Ocean. As if they were not enough on their own, they collaborated with Mohit Chauhan to create this magic called "Maaya". Either they are here to make sound which haunts me or I am here just to worship their music. Either way their music is one of "high" in my very normal life.
This is gold. Pure gold. As if the combination of Gulzar and Vishal was not enough earlier, Mohit joins the gang adding another dimension. I don't know why but somehow I find Mohit's voice unusually haunting.
I would have listened to the song around 'n'th times and kept on thinking that the lines are like this.
Dil ne kaisi harkat ki hai pehli baar Mohabbat ki hai aakhri baar Mohabbat ki hai pehli baar Mohabbat ki hai aakhri baar Mohabbat ki hai..
But apparently they are not. Still I find them better and powerful.
Thode bheege bheege se thode num hai hum Kal se soye woye bhi to kam hai hum Thode bheege bheege se thode num hai hum Kal se soye woye bhi to kam hai hum
Dil ne kaisi harkat ki hai Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Aakhri baar mohabbat ki hai Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Aakhri baar mohabbat ki hai
Aankhein doobi doobi si surmai madham.. Jheelen paani paani hai bas tum aur hum Baat badi hairat ki hai Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Aakhri baar mohabbat ki hai Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Aakhri baar mohabbat ki hai
Khwaab ke bhoj se kap kapati hui Halki palken teri Yaad aata hai sab Tujhe gud gudana satana yuhin sotey hue Gaal pey tipna michna bewajah besabab
Yaad hai peepal ke jiskey ghaney saaye the Humnein gilhari ke jhootey matar khaye the Yeh barqat un hazrat ki hai Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Aakhri baar mohabbat ki hai Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Aakhri baar mohabbat ki hai
Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Ohoooo oo hooooooooooo Pehli baar mohabbat ki hai Ohoooo oo hooooooooooo

I mentioned about this beautiful Himahchali folk song in my last post. I had heard this song few years back and it was there somewhere in back up of mind. Thankfully, came across it again and this time won't let it fade away. I had no clue what it meant but it felt so soothing and haunting. A friend explained the meaning and I have tried to put the translation which might not be entirely correct. Enjoy!!
Amma poochdi sun dhiye mere aee
Dhubari itni tu kiya kareeya hoyee yee
[Mother Asks Listen O my daughter,
Why are you so restless?]
Paarli vaniya mor jo bole ho
Amma ji ina more nindara gawayi ho
[Daughter says: The peacock is hooting in the next forest,
O mother, his hooting has taken away my sleep]
Sad le bandukiyo sad le shikari jo
Dhiye bhlaa idaa mor maar girana ho
[Mother says: Lets call hunters and gunner,
O daughter we will take this peacock down.]
Morni marna ayeeee ooooooo
Morni marna morni gawana ho
Oh ammaji inda mor hinjare puwana ho
[Daughter says: No we will not shoot it,
I will put it in a cage]
A forgettable movie 'Ugly Aur Pagli' but produced an unforgettable song. Some people never get their due and always are underrated. Mohit Chauhan, although blessed with unique style, is one of them. His voice is not conventional but there is something special which haunts you long. Enjoy!!
Ek pal mein kya se kya hua jadoo sa kya chala Tujh se juda hua to aaj khud se juda hua Ek pal mein kya se kya hua jadoo sa kya chala Tujh se juda hua to aaj khud se juda hua Aaye yaad teri aaye..oooo..jaaye jaan bhi na jaaye Aaye yaad teri aaye..oooo..jaaye jaan bhi na jaaye
Suna suna sa hai mausam ojhal si sham hai Tanhan tanhan sa har rasta tanhan makaam hai Gum sum gum sum si lagti hai aayi hai jo hawa Chupke chupke sab se chupke rota hai aasmaan Bejaan dhadkane meri aankhon mein hai dua Tujh se juda hua to aaj khud se juda hua Aaye yaad teri aaye...jaaye jaan bhi na jaaye
Kisne socha tha aisa bhi aayega ek din Khaali khaali honge har palchin tere bin Bechaini hai betaabi hai dil hai bujha bujha Maara maara dewaano sa phirta yahan wahan Saansein ruki ruki meri khamosh hai sadha Tujh se juda hua to aaj khud se juda hua Aaye yaad teri aaye...jaaye jaan bhi na jaaye
Ek pal mein kya se kya hua jadoo sa kya chala Tujh se juda hua to aaj khud se juda hua Aaye yaad teri aaye...jaaye jaan bhi na jaaye

Hosh bekhabar se huye unke bagair Hosh bekhabar se huye unke bagair Hosh bekhabar se huye unke bagair Woh jo humse keh na sake dil ne keh diya Woh jo humse keh na sake dil ne keh diya
Saki ne phir se mera jaam bhar diya Guncha koi……
Guncha koi mere naam kar diya Saki ne phir se mera jaam bhar diya
