Was listening to a beautiful song form the movie Hazaaron Khwaishen Aisi: (i know its has too many baawaraas but pay attention…the words are amazing)
Baawaraa mann dekhne chala ek sapna
Baaware se man ki dekho baawari si baaten
Baawari si dhadkane hai, baawari si saanse
Baawari si karvatonse nindiya door bhage
Baaware se nain chaahe baaware zharokon se
Baaware nazaaron ko takna….
Baawaraa mann dekhne chala ek sapna
Baaware se is jahaan me Baawaraa ek saath ho
Is sayanee bheed mein bas haathon mein tera haath ho
Baawari si dhun ho koi baawaraa ek raag ho
Baaaere se pair chaahe baaware taraanon ke
Baaware se bol pe thirakna
Baawara mann dekhne chala ek sapna
Baawara sa ho andhera, baawari khamoshiyan
Thartharaata lauh maddham, baawari madhoshiyaan
Baawara ek ghungta chaahe, hole hole bin bataaye,
Baaware se mukhde se sarakna
Baawaraa mann dekhne chale chalaa ek sapna
More beautiful words form Khoya Khoya Chand:
Ye nigaahen, nigaahen , nigaahen jhuki jhuki
Apni aahen labon ki hadon par ruki ruki
Mehfil mehfil kyu deewaan, ye parvaana ghoomta hai,
Jaal jaayega jaanta hai, to kyu shamaa ko choomta hai?
Swaanand Kirkire can sure come up with some interesting words.
What is it with humans and relationships? Why do we invest so much time, and so many emotions in other people? Why the constant struggle to keep everyone happy? Why the constant love-hate, independence-dependence, commitment-freedom conflicts? No two people can behave the same way, think the same way, react the same way to situations, and yet, there is this constant search for company, for companionship, for approval, for admiration.
Indeed a baawaraa mann.
