Lodged in my brain ever since I heard the first few bars of this song in the movie Ocean's 12, today was the day I finally heard it for the first time. This video is set to pictures of Italy, but chances are, you will be looking at the lyrics the whole song through.

.....I visisted you again ! ...and this video made it completely worth my time ... u were right ..i didnt see a single picture of Italy either in the background:)
Dear spa,
You seem to be one among those who appreciates profundity of lyrics when you listen to music.....
I do too........... I watched the video and read the lyrics. You seem to be moved by it a lot.
I for one listen mostly to old hindi film music and am deeply moved by some of the lyrics.... I feel none can match the profundity of thoughts of Indian poets.... sometimes just a single line contains a complete philosophy.
Again, I don't mean to offend anyone by comparisons, but wish you to start listening to some songs just so that you dont miss it....so that you may weep in your solitude as I do.....
If you are interested, I can share some lines with you and probably translate them for you in case you dont understand Hindi/Urdu....
lemme know...

thank you for taking so much interest in this blog. As for lyrics, yes I do pay attention to them but not to the extent of recalling them in my solitude with lachrymatory results :-)
Here is something for starters....
Kabhi kabhi mere dil main khayal aata hain
Ki zindagi teri zulfon ki narm chhaon main guzarne pati
to shadab ho bhi sakti thi.
Yeh ranj-o-gham ki siyahi jo dil pe chhayi hain
Teri nazar ki shuaon main kho bhi sakti thi.
Magar yeh ho na saka aur ab ye aalam hain
Ki tu nahin, tera gham teri justjoo bhi nahin.
Guzar rahi hain kuchh iss tarah zindagi jaise,
isse kisi ke sahare ki aarzoo bhi nahin.
Na koi raah, na manzil, na roshni ka suraag
Bhatak rahin hai andheron main zindagi meri.
Inhi andheron main reh jaoonga kabhi kho kar
Main janta hoon meri hum-nafas, magar yoonhi
Kabhi kabhi mere dil main khayal aata hai.
***
Shadab=fresh,delightful
Ranj=distress,grief
Justjoo=desire
Hum-nafas=companion,friend
Litsen to the poem in the voice of Amitabh Bachchan.

I hope you listened to the poem above.....
A very famous one but you never get tired of it....
(Do let me know if you think you dont really have a flair for this kind of stuff... I would not want to waste your time and this space...):-) Have a good day.....
