Dil gira dafatan - Delhi6

Sung by : Ash King and Chinmayee

As much I love 'Rehna Tu' song from the album, I more often than not end up listening this song too whenever I get a chance. I don't know if its right to call it a unknown gem, rahman lovers probably would know this song and love it too. Still, unlike Masakalli or the religious track or kaala bandar, this one went very much unnoticed.  Though, it was used well in the movie by Rakesh Om prakash Mehra.

Its my most loved song of Ash King till date. The song makes me travel through a heart that loves someone but that person can't see the love.



Dil mera... dil mera
dil meraaaa... dil meraaaaaaaa

Aaa aaa Ooo .. dil mera, dil mera...

Dil gira kahin par dafatan
dil gira kahin par dafatan
jaane magar yeh naiyyan
teri khamosh zulfon ki gehraaiyaaan
hai jahaan dil meraa
uljha hua hai wahin kho gaya
tu magar hai bekhabar, hai bekhabar...

Dil gira kahin par dafatan
kyun goonj rahi hai dhadkan ..
jaane magar yeh naiyyan


Sipiyon ke honth se moti chalak rahe hai
ghazlon ki sohbat mein geet bhi behak rahi hai
samundar lehron ki, lehron ki chadar odh ke so raha hai
par main jaagun ek khumari, ek nasha saa
ek nasha sa ho raha hai
tu magar hai behakhar, hai bekhabar...


Dil gira kahin par dafatan
kyun goonj rahi hai dhadkan...
Jaane magar yeh naiyyan
khushboo mein lipte mausam
Teri khamosh zulfon ki gehraiyaaan
hai jahaan dil meraaa..
uljha hua hai wahin, kho gaya..
Tu magar hai bekhabar, hai bekhabar...

Mann Mera : Gajendra Verma

Sung by : Gajendra Verma 

Love the feel of romance in the words and the voice of Gajendra. For me this version is way above the film one in 'Table No 21', even the visuals are more romantic.  The boy is deeply in love and finds hard to live with only memories of her. My fav part is the starting lines and the one where he asks either give your heart or give his heart back.


Saari raat aahein bhartaa
pal pal yaadon mein marta
maane na meri mann mera
sooni sooni shaam soone savere
behate hainn aansoo mere
jaane kuch bhi na mann mera...

kabhi tera tha jo ab begaana hai woh
deewana deewana samjhe na ...
ho oo kabhi khoya rahe
kabhi roya phir kare
kabhi toote huye sapne sanjhoya phir kare
koi mann se uljhe na
koi mann se jeete na
dil raina aisa kar diye phir bitaaye beete na re mann mera
maane na mann mera

Ragg ragg woh samaaya mere
mujhko khudaaya mere
usse milaaya de mitaa
karun fariyaad pukaarun tujhko
yaa toh de dilbar mujhko
dil ya seene se de hataa
mujhe saari umar ab sataana hai woh
deewana deewana samjhe naa

Aisa bhi kya re dil ka lagaana
aisi bhi kya re mohabbat
aankhein mila ke yeh maine jaana
rone se milti nahi fursat


kabhi chup chup rahe
kabhi zidd pe aa jaaye
bas ek tareeka dhoondhe
tujhse tujhko paa jaaye
kabhi tujh bin jee lunga
kabhi mar jaayunga main
tujhse sau baatein karta haaye
khudko bharmaaye mann mera
maane na mann mera ...

Barbaadi - Aurangzeb

Sung by : K.Mohan

There's a deep pain that is visible right from the starting background tune, and then the vocals of K.Mohan takes it further more along with the lyrics. The person is ready to get destroyed if in the end he gets all the glory. Maybe he believes in, everything gets fine in the end.  The last part is too good, and I like that Ram Sampath (composer) made it sound even more painful with almost no background music in the starting lines of final stanza.


Jale dheere dheere se
ik aag saanson mein
jal jaane dun kya ?
jal jaane dun kya ?
yeh bebasi mujhko kitni sajaa degi
mar jaane dun kya ?
mar jaane dun kya ?
dekho saare dhaage toote
inn jaagi raaton mein
barbaadi, meethi si lage azaadi
barbaadi, meethi si lage azaadi
barbaadi... hoo oo o oo
aasmaan mile, toh meethi si lage barbaadi

kabhi kabhi jo tujhko chu lun
chubhti hai tu
kabhi tu jo mujhko jee le
neela neela sa kar de
jaage hothon pe hai baatein baagi
chup hai zindagi
mujhe kholde, kholde, kholde
main toh qaidi hoon


zara zara sa tujh mein jeeke
marta hoon main
teri shaakhon par hai mere
sookhe sookhe se sapne
toote hai aankhon se
kaise rokein choone ko yeh zameen
unhe jaane do, jaane do, jaane do, jaane do
khul ke behne do
unhein leke jaayein jhonke
anjaani raahon mein

Barbaadi... meethi si lage azaadi
barbaadi.. meethi si lage azaadi
barbaaaaadi ... ho o o oo ...
aaasmaan mile, toh meethi si lage barbaadi.
