All time high-July 2009

This month I bring to you one of my all-time faves(yes, it is an all-time high, no less)- this masterpiece by Gulzar, sung by Manna Dey from the movie 'Anubhav' directed by Basu Bhattacharya, produced by Basu Chatterjee. A heady combination which makes for an all-time high.

I specially like the second paragraph, chockful of meaning. The tune, the voice, the lyrics- love love love it all.



Phir kahi koyi phool khila, chaahat na kaho usko
Phir kahi koyi deep jala, manzil na kaho usko
Phir kahi koyi phool khila...

Mann ka samundar pyaasa hua, kyu kisi se maange duwa
Lahero ka laga jo mela, toofaan na kaho usko
Phir kahi koyi phool khila...

Dekhe sab woh sapne, khud hi sajaaye jo hamne
Dil unse behel jaaye to, raahat na kaho usko
Phir kahi koyi phool khila...
