Katra Katra...

Tujhse naaraz nahin zindagi, hairan hoon main
Tere masoom sawalon se pareshan hoon main

Jeene ke liye socha hi nahin dard sambhalne honge
Muskurao to, muskurane ke karz utarne hoge
Muskurao kabhi to lagta hain jaise hoton pe karz rakha hai

Aaj agar bhar aayi hain, boondein baras jayengi
Kal kya pata, kin ke liye aankhein taras jayenge
Jaane kab gum hua, kahan khoya, ek aansoo chupa ke rakha tha


Some days are just made for sitting out in the balcony, soaking the sun and listening to Gulzar's soulful lyrics set to haunting tunes by RD Burman.
Today was one of them, till rude reality intervened in the form of the clock hands informing me that it was almost time to go to work.
Sometimes, you just have to make the most of the little things in life in whatever little time you are given to enjoy them.

Katra katra milti hai
Katra katra jeene do
Zindagi hai, bahne do
Pyaasi hoon main pyasi rahne do

I love these lines...

"tum ne to aakaash bichhaayaa
mere nange pairo mein jameen hai
kaante bhee tumhaaree aarajoo hai
shaayad ayaisee jindagee haseen hai
aarajoo mein bahane do
pyaasee hoo main ,pyaasee rahane do"


This song always makes me wistful!

hey katra katra zindagi ..i liked d thought..gud one

dafan hai dil mein armaan yuhin kai zamaane se..kafan phir bhi uthta nahin beete pal dohraane se..maut hai jo ab har roz mil jaati hai is deewane se..zindagi je raha hai yeh dost shaayri ke baahane se..
