I really liked the movie saathiya, and it has to be one of my favourite albums of recent times, what with the variety of songs. A dhim dhim tana na, and udi udi udi to contrast with a folk jhooth kapat chal kinhi...very rarely do you get an album where all the songs are such gems,you can see that a lot of thought has been put in to each of them. but the one that i think is a cut above the rest is mainda yaar milade sainyan. It is just so beautiful, ethereal, picturesque. my compliments to the writer, and of course a. r. rahman, he has a lovely voice, its like you can feel the pain, which i guess begs the question why would you want to feel pain, but... let's ignore that for a while shall we?

here are the lyrics as i remember them
बंजर है सब बंजर है
हम ढूँढने जब फिरदौस चले
तेरी खोज तलाश में देख पिया
हम कितने काले कोस चले
isn't that nice? and this
मैंने पोटा पोटा फलक छाना
मैंने टोटे टोटे तारे चुने
बस एक तेरी आहट के लिए कंकर पत्थर बुत्त सारे सुने
See, I just totally completely get that. I think it is such a beautiful description, kankar patthar but saare sune... sometimes i really wonder why I understand obsession so well :) But I know I do.
आ देख मेरी पेशानी को
तकदीर के हर्फे लिखे हैं
मैं कितनी बार पुकारूँ तुझे
तेरे नाम के सफ्फे लिखे हैं...
तेरा साया कभी तो बोलेगा
मैं सुनता रहा परछाईयाँ
and then this next one is the part that just completely takes the cake for me
पैरों के निशाँ जब देखे जहाँ
सौ बार झुकाया सर को वहां
it is so very profound, yet stated so simply। some actions - thinking, wanting, obsessing - do not leave foot prints. There is no tangible proof but does not mean they did not happen.
tch, sometimes i really wish i could sing :(
तारों की चमक ये सुबहो तलक लगती ही नहीं पल भर को पलक....
