Kahan tak yeh man ko andhere chhalenge

Kahan tak yeh man ko andhere chhalenge
Udaasi bhare din kabhi toh dhalenge
Kahan tak yeh man ko andhere chhalenge
Udaasi bhare din kabhi toh dhalenge

Kabhi sukh kabhi dukh, yahi zindagi hai
Yeh patjhad ka mausam ghadi do ghadi hai
Yeh patjhad ka mausam ghadi do ghadi hai
Naye phool kal phir dagar mein khilenge
Udaasi bhare din kabhi toh dhalenge

Bhale tez kitna, hawa ka ho jhonka
Magar apne man mein tu rakh yeh bharosa
Magar apne man mein tu rakh yeh bharosa
Jo bichhde safar mein tujhe phir milenge
Udaasi bhare din kabhi toh dhalenge

Kahe koi kuch bhi, magar sach yahi hai
Lehar pyaar ki jo kahin uth rahi hai
Lehar pyaar ki jo kahin uth rahi hai
Use ek din toh kinaare milenge
Udaasi bhare din kabhi toh dhalenge

In this post, I wanted to respond to R’s note from last week.

Then life caught up in many ‘punch-in-my-face’ ways. As usual, I was side-tracked. All the brilliant things I had thought of saying flew out the window.

I thought of how life has been treating us these past years and how we have supported each other through it all. This wonderful song sung by Kishore Kumar, our mutual favorite, came to mind. Written by Yogesh and tuned by Rajesh Roshan, it is a song of hope and positivity.
A rather unassuming song but one that packs quite a punch, with its wonderful lyrics. Just like our friendship—no grand gestures but all heart and soul.  ~ S
