Tere Jaane Se Kuch To Badla Nahin

Sunset Point is a master piece by Gulzar and Vishal. A love story is so beautifully narrated by Gulzar saab himself and the songs are created to fit into the situations seamlessly. Nobody can play with words like Gulzar saab. His greatness is to express the complex feeling subtly in simple words. One of my favorite line is "woh der se pahuncha tha lekin waqt par pahuncha" which in itself tells a whole story.

Woh phir pul ke usi kinare aake khadi ho gayi
zindagi ka aakhri kadam uthane ke liye
kohre se chhan ke aati huti aawaz ne use rok diya
yeh to usi ki aawaz thi
woh der se pahuncha tha lekin waqt par pahuncha



I like the whole album but this song of separation is different. The first portion below is the narration by Gulzar saab before the song "tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin".

dholak ki thap dur daraj ke mohallon tak sunai di
jab use khabar mili to woh bhi pahuncha
khidkiyon darwazon se jhank jhank kar uski nazar pakadne ki koshish karta raha
mehandi se sazi tak dulahan tak pahuchna mushkil tha
ek saheli dulhan ke liye chai ki pyali lekar aayi
usne to maangi nahi thi
saheli ne aankh jhapak kar kaha,
pilo cup mein paigaam bhi hai
cup ki tah mein usne angoothi rakh kar bheji thi
usne angoothi hothon se pili aur ungali mein pahan li
saheli ke mehandi lagi hatheli par likh ke bhej diya
usi sunset par milna jo pool par mila tha
lekin sandesa pahucha nahin
woh ja chuka tha
pal bhar mein sab badal gaya
aur kuch bhi nahi badla
jo badla tha woh to guzar gaya......


tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin
tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin
raat bhi aayi thi aur chand bhi tha
raat bhi aayi thi aur chand bhi tha
tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin
tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin

saans bhi waise hi chalti hai hamesha ki tarah
aankh waise hi jhapakti hai hamesh ki tarah
thodi si bheegi huyi rehti hai aur kuch bhi nahin
tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin
tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin

hoth khusk hoti hain aur pyaas bhi lagti hai
aaj kal shaam shard hawa chalti hai
khak karne se dhuan uthata hai jo dil ka nahin
tere jaane se kuch to badla nahin
raat bhi aayi thi aur chand bhi tha
raat bhi aayi thi aur chand bhi tha
tha magar neend nahin neend nahin

You'are The One

I typically don't like songs which mix english with hindi. And this poor word 'baby' is severely abused. Babies around the world must unite together and protest against this copyright violation:) Anyway, there are few exceptions like O Re Chhori from Lagaan and this one from Aladin are beautifully done.

you’re the one, you’re the one
baby you’re the one
you’re the one, you’re the one
baby you’re the one

you may be
just a lil bit deewani
thodi thodi si crazy
but baby you’re the one

tum jaisi
hai na koi yun deewani
thodi thodi si crazy
but baby you’re the one
you’re the one

ab aur kise na chahata hun
aur kise na chahunga
tu jo taare mangle
to woh bhi tod launga
kehke toh dekho na
karta rahunga main pyaar
ohh..

you may be
just a lil bit deewani
thodi thodi si crazy
but baby you’re the one

you’re the one, you’re the one
baby you’re the one
you’re the one, you’re the one
baby you’re the one

khule khule teri aankhon mein hai mere armaan saare
khile khile aise hai ke pheeke pheeke hai sab nazare
hai naya yeh jahan, yeh hua na yahan
itna kabhi bhi kisiko kisise hai pyaar

you may be
just a lil bit
just a lil bit deewani
thodi thodi si crazy
but baby
but baby you’re the one
you’re the one

ab aur kise na chahata hun
ab aur kise na chahata hun
aur kise na chahunga
tu jo taare mangle
to woh bhi tod launga
tod launga
kehke to dekho na
karta rahunga main pyaar
ohh..

tum jaisi
hai na koi yun deewani
hai na koi yun deewani
thodi thodi si crazy
but baby you’re the one
you’re the one

you’re the one, you’re the one
baby you’re the one
you’re the one, you’re the one
baby you’re the one

Aur Phir Yun Hua

aur phir yun hua...
raat ek khwab ne jagaa diya,
aur phir yun hua..
raat ek khwab ne jagaa diya,
phir yun hua, chaand ki woh dali ghul gayee
aur yun hua, khwab ki woh ladi khul gayee
chalti rahee be-nooriyaan,
chalte rahe andheron ki..roshni ke tale..
phir nahin so sake..
ek sadi ke liye...hum diljale..
phir nahin so sake...
ek sadi ke liye.. hum diljale..
aur phir yun hua, subah ki dhool ne udaa diya..
aur phir yun hua, subah ki dhool ne udaa diya..
phir yun hua, chehre ke naksh sab dhul gaye
aur yun hua, gard the.. gard mein rul gaye
tanhaaiyaan odhe hue..
galte rahe bheege hue..
aansuon se gale...
phir nahin so sake, ek sadi ke liye hum diljale
ek sadi ke liye hum diljale...

Ab Mujhe Koi Intezaar Kahan

I am tired of praising Gulzar's poetry and I definitely sound like an old record here. But what can you do when he keeps coming with such beautiful and meaningful lyrics. I don't know if it is deliberate or not but Rekha Bharadwaj sings very few numbers. But whenever she does that in collaboration with Vishal's composition and Gulzar's lyrics, something magic is created.


Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Wo jo behte the aabshaar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Woh jo behte the aabshar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Aankh ke ek gaon mein, raat ko khwaab aate the
Aankh ke ek gaon mein, raat ko khwaab aate the
Chhoone se behte the, bole to kehte the
Udte khwaabon ka aitbaar kahan
Udte khwaabon ka aitbaar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Jin dino aap the, aankh mein dhoop thi
Jin dino aap rehte the, aankh mein dhoop rehti thi
Ab to jaale hi jaale hain, yeh bhi jaane wale hain
Woh jo tha dard ka qaraar kahan
Woh jo tha dard ka qaraar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan
Woh jo behte the abshaar kahan
Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Oh thank god!! Finally something came out which just lands directly on heart through ears. Awesome poetry by Gulzar saab, brilliant composition by Vishal and great singing by Rahet Fateh Ali Khan. There are two other beautiful songs 'Ab mujhe koi intezaar kahan' and 'Ibn-E-Batuta' in this album 'Ishqiya'.

Aisi uljhi nazar unse hattati nahin

Daant se reshmi dor kattati nahin

Umar kab ki baras ke safed ho gayi

Kaari badari jawani ki chattati nahin

Walla ye dhadkan bhadne lagi hai

Chehre ki rangat udne lagi hai

Darr lagta hai tanha sone mein ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Thoda kaccha hai ji

Haan dil to baccha hai ji

Aisi uljhi nazar unse hattati nahin

Daant se reshmi dor kattati nahin

Umar kab ki baras ke safed ho gayi

Kaari badari jawani ki chattati nahin

Ra ra ra ..

Ra ra ra ..

Kisko pataa tha pehlu mein rakha

Dil aisa paaji bhi hoga

Hum to hamesha samajhte the koi

Hum jaisa haaji hi hoga

Hai zor karein, kitna shor karein

Bewaja baatein pe ainwe gaur karein

Dilsa koi kamina nahin

Koi to rokey, koi to tokey

Iss umar mein ab khaogey dhokhe

Darr lagta hai ishq karne mein ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Thoda kaccha hai ji

Haan dil to baccha hai ji

Aisi udhaasi baithi hai dil pe

Hasne se ghabra rahe hain

Saari jawani katra ke kaati

Piri mein takra gaye hain

Dil dhadakta hai to aise lagta hai woh

Aa raha hai yahin dekhta hi na woh

Prem ki maarein kataar re

Taubah ye lamhe kattate nahin kyun

Aankhein se meri hattate nahin kyun

Darr lagta hai mujhse kehne mein ji

Dil toh bachcha hai ji

Dil toh bachcha hai ji

Thoda kaccha hai ji

Haan dil toh baccha hai ji

Aisi ulji nazar unse hatt ti nahi

Daant se reshmi dor katt ti nahi

Umar kab ki baras ke safaid ho gayi

Kaari badari jawani ki chatt ti nahi

Walla ye dhadkan bhadne lagi hai

Chehre ki rangat udne lagi hai

Darr lagta hai tanha sone mein ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Thoda kaccha hai ji

Haan dil to baccha hai ji

Aisi ulji nazar unse hattati nahin

Daant se reshmi dor kattati nahin

Umar kab ki baras ke safed ho gayi

Kaari badari jawani ki chattati nahin

Ra ra ra ..

Kisko ptaa tha pehlu mein rakha

Dil aisa paaji bhi hoga

Hum to hamesha samajhte the koi

Hum jaisa haaji hi hoga

Hai zor karein, kitna shor karein

Bewaja baatein pe ainwe gaur karein

Dilsa koi kameena nahi

Koi to rokey, koi to tokey

Iss umar mein ab khaogey dhokhe

Darr lagta hai ishq karne mein ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Dil to bachcha hai ji

Thoda kaccha hai ji

Haan dil to baccha hai ji

Aisi udhaasi baithi hai dil pe

Hassne se ghabra rahe hain

Aa raha hai yahin dekhta hi na woh

Prem ki maarein kataar re

Taubah ye lamhe katt te nahi kyun

Aankhein se meri hatt te nahi kyun

Darr lagta hai mujhse kehne mein ji

Dil toh bachcha hai ji

Dil toh bachcha hai ji

Thoda kaccha hai ji

Haan dil toh baccha hai ji

Pehli Baar

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

Rone Do

Rone do jiya kare
Rone do jiya kare
Ronde do na jee bhar ke
Rone do jiya kare
Ronde do na jee bhar ke
Khali nahin hote kabhi naina mere

Rone do jiya kare
Jiya kare
Rone do

Aisi bhar aye aankhen piya
Shadiyaan rulaye aankhen
Aisi bhar aye aankhen piya
Shadiyaan rulaye aankhen

Tap tap girti hain baarsate
Do patte roke hain
Dekh bahar mein jine walon ke bhi gham hote hain
Dard naya de koi piya re
Phir se sujale aankhen
Rona hai to rone do
Rone do na jee bhar ke

Ek Woh Din Bhi The

When Gulzar meets Vishal, magic is created. Maachis, Satya, Omkara, Maqbool, No Smoking, Sunset Point, Tere Ishq Mein are some examples. Not to forget a lesser known but awesome song from the movie 'Chachi 420'. Such depth with simple words can only be weaved by Gulzar.

Ek woh din bhi the...
Ek yeh din bhi hain...
Ek woh din bhi the...
Ek yeh din bhi hain...
Ek woh raat thi, ek ye raat hai
Raat yeh bhi guzar jaayegi....
Raat yeh bhi guzar jaayegi...

Ek woh din bhi the...
Ek yeh din bhi hain...
Ek woh raat thi, ek ye raat hai
Raat yeh bhi guzar jaayegi....
Raat yeh bhi guzar jaayegi...

Koi aata hai palkon pe chalta hua
Ek aansu sunehri sa jalta hua
Khwab bujh jayenge
Raakh reh jayegi
Raat yeh bhi guzar jaayegi....
Raat yeh bhi guzar jaayegi...

Waqt saalon ki dhund se nikal jaayega
Tera chehera nazar se pighal jaayega
Aankh band hogi to
Neend aa jaayegi
Raat ye bhi guzar jaayegi....
Raat ye bhi guzar jaayegi...

Baadalon Se Kaat Kaat Ke

Words fail me to describe the genius of Gulzar. Such imaginative yet beautiful thoughts, song after song, is amazing. Vishal Bharadwaj and A R Rehman are two contemporary composers who do justice to the poetry of the master. Great song.

Baadalon se kaat kaat ke
Kaagazon pe naam jodna
Yeh mujhe kya ho gaya?

Doriyon se baandh baandh ke
Raat bhar chaand todna
Yeh mujhe kya ho gaya?

Ek baar tumko jab
Baraste paaniyon ke paar dekha tha
Yun laga tha jaise
Gungunaata ek absaar dekha tha
Tabse meri neend mein barasti rehti ho
Bolti bahut ho aur hasti rehti ho
Jo tujhe jaanta na ho us-se tera naam poochna
Yeh mujhe kya ho gaya?

Dekho yun khule badan tum
Gulaabi saahilon pe aaya naa karo tum
Namak bhare samundaron mein yun
Is tarah nahaya na karo
Sara din chandni si chhaayi rehti hai
Aur gulabi dhoop baukhlai Rehti Hai
Jaamno ki naram daal pe
Naakhoon se naam khodna
Yeh mujhe kya ho gaya?

Naina

Naino ki mat maniyo re
Naino ki mat suniyo
Naino ki mat suniyo
Naina thug lenge
Naina thug lenge thug lenge
Naina thug lenge

Jagte jadoo phukenge re
Jagte jagte jadoo
Jagte jadoo fukenge re
Ninde banajar kar denge
Naina thug lenge
Naina thug lenge thug lenge
Naina thug lenge
Naina thug lenge thug lenge

Bhala manda dekhene na paraya na
Saga re
Naino ko to dusne ka chaska
Laga re
Naino ka jeher raseela
Naino ka jeher raseela
Badlon mein satrangiyan boe
Bhor talak barsaye
Badlon mein satrangiyan boe
Naina bawra kar denge
Naina thug lenge thug lenge

Naina raat ko chalte chalte swarga
Mein le jawe
Megh malhar ke sapne beeje
Haryalee dikhlawen
Naino ki juwan pe bharosa nahin
Ata..likhat padhat na rasid
Na khata
Saree baat hawayee re
Saree baat hawayee
Bin badal barsawe sawan
Sawan bin barsatan
Bin badal barsawe sawan
Naina bawara kar denge
Naina thug lenge
Naina thug lenge thug lenge
Naina thug lenge
