Sun le re….

Mera kaun hai tere siva..
Maula tu hi toh hai bas mera..
Nikla hoon sach ki talaash mein..
Yeh jag toh hai maaya tera..

Maula sun le re..
Khudaya o mere..
Maula sun le re..
Mera man jo kahe...

Suni jab se dil ki pukaar hai...
Utha kaisa ye sawaal hai..
Nahi ab khabar na khayal hai..
Hua kya ye mera haal hai..


Nahi ab khabar.. na khayal hai..
Chadha kaisa ye.. khumaar hai..
Lagta nahi...hogi seher..
Naa jhuke agar.. toh katenge sar..


Ye jhoot pe hai pale huye..
Ye jo doodh ke hain dhule huye..
Inhe kya khabar..
Nahi jaante hai..
Ki ye lab mere hai nahi sile..


Mera kaun hai tere siva..
Maula tu hi toh hai bas mera..
Nikla hoon sach ki talash mein..
Yeh jag toh hai maaya tera..

 

 

(Sun le re song from Madras Cafe)

 

 

Nothing expresses more than the words in a song..

All the words ringing sooo true right now…
“Nikla hoon sach ki talaash mein,
ye jag toh hai maaya tera..”

 

 

As the dusk arrives
and the sun sets,
Sadness wraps me in
Darkness lurching around somewhere..
Hope ran away sometime back..
Anger was here till now but Sadness kicked him out..
Everyone leaves..
Now i’m only left with Sadness
and the song..
Oh, and unending questions..
Trying to find the Truth,
but seems like Darkness hid the Truth somewhere
and I have no energy left right now
to find it…
Dunno if morning will ever come
dunno if light will shine..
Maula sun le re…..
Are you even listening?!
…………………
