Nainon se nain milaa ke – song no. 12
—————————————-
I have noticed that some of the regulars on the blog have shortened the name of ‘atulsongaday’ as ‘ASAD’. They might be interested to know that ‘Asad’ in urdu and Arabic means ‘Lion’. Now there is one famous personality named such, we are familiar with i.e. “Asadullah Khan Ghalib”. And ‘Lions’ by nature are hunters and like to roar. Mirza Ghalib was a different story, as even if he roared, it turned into sheer poetry. Where as we at ‘atulsongaday’ are more comfortable ‘cooing’ as a ‘Dove’. At least I prefer to thinks so.

Nainon se naina milaa ke – Song no. 11
——————————————-
With post of 10th song in the series, I thought the series is complete. But it was not to be. A fellow contributor to the blog, Mr. Nitin Shah, has magnanimously offered a wide choice of songs for this series, and contributed the lyrics, compelling me to continue the series for a few more songs.

A very special song for Mohammad Rafi fans. This is what is real effortless singing. He makes it sound as if it is his ‘baayen haathh ka khel’. And it was his forte to seamlessly go from one mood to another, go from light, comic mode to qawwali, sounding quite serious and melodious and switch to western style, all in the space of less than a minute. If what I say does not make sense, than one can only listen to this song and confirm. What range and what smoothness of voice and diction. And adding the punjabi tadka too in a spoken line towards the end of the song.

Nainon se naina milaa ke : Song No. 10
——————————————–

Here we are at the tenth and final song of the series ‘Nainon se naina milaa ke ‘. When I started this series, I had just three songs with similar mukhda’s one of which is the tenth song. The duet from ‘ Shahkaar ‘ and Geeta Roy solo from ‘Hamaari Manzil’ were the other two. So I had thought of keeping it short and sweet with these three songs.

Nainon se naina milaa ke – Song no. 09
—————————————–
Here comes the song no. 9 of the series, which is the oldest song so far. I am actually indebted to Sudhir Kapoor Sir, for suggesting this song for the series. This was not available on youtube. Sir was kind enough to upload the song and he also provided the lyrics both in English and Hindi script.

Nainon se naina milaa ke – Song no. 8
——————————————-
ishq qaatil se bhi, maqtool se hamdardi bhi
ye bata kis se mohabbat ki jazaa maange gaa ?
sajda khaaliq ko bhi, iblees se yaarana bhi
hashr mein kis se aqeedat ka silaa maange gaa ?

(Allama Iqbal)

When in doubt tell the truth. (Mark Twain)

There are innumerable ‘when in doubt…’ quotes out there from ‘when in doubt wear red’ to ‘go public’ to ‘throw it out’. Just to give the briefer ones. There are some sensible ones like ‘do not react’ or ‘sleep over it’. For someone like me fortunate enough to know Urdu, it makes sense to turn to Urdu poetry.

Nainon se naina milaa ke – Song no. 7
—————————————-

Song no. 7 is once again a duet. I am not yet done with the duets from Rafi excel sheet. I was in two minds whether to have songs with ‘Ankhen’ ‘nigaahen’ and ‘nazaren’ also which match the theme. But the songs that have come my way having the ‘naina’ or ‘nainon’ are so endearing and similar yet with different flavour, that my hands are quite full.

Nainon se nain milaa ke : Song No. 6
——————————————-
Since yesterday, I was looking for a song from Qaatil (1960), whose link was proving elusive, though other songs from the film are available on youtube. While looking for the song from I stumbled upon another duet which is in line this series of ‘nainon se nain milaa ke’.

——————————————

Song no. 4 in this series is again a duet, but this time it is Jagjit Kaur who is singing with Rafi. This is from the film ‘ Mera Bhai Mera Dushman ‘ (1967). I had never heard of this film. The lyrics are written by Kaifi Azmi and the composer is Khaiyyam. Now, about them I have definitely heard. 🙂
