I have been a fan of music as a whole but somehow always with a special bias towards the music which has classy lyrics associated with it..
Was listening to this song from yet another upcoming typical bollywood movie..it was all about that same feeling you find in Every other song these days - non acceptance of one's love..
However, even then, I felt like listening to it again and again..Reason : Words! Lyrics!! They are as new, as fresh and as rejuvenating everytime they come from a different lyricist, even when the feelings behind each one is different; infact they feel new even when they are coming from same person, on same feeling but in a different timeFrame..cz you never feel the exact same way twice!!
So this one is to all the lyricists and poets - thanks for transporting us to different times of our lives..even the ones which we never had!!
Cheers!!

Maana Ke Hum Yaar Nahin
Maana ke hum yaar nahin
Lo tay hai ke pyaar nahin
Phir bhi nazrein na tum milaana
Dil ka aitbaar nahi
Maana ke hum yaar nahi…
Raaste mein jo milo toh
Haath milaane ruk jaana
Ho…
Saath mein koi ho tumhare
Door se hi tum muskaana
Lekin muskaan ho aisi
Ki jisme ikraar nahi
Nazron se na karna tum bayaan
Woh jis’se inkaar nahi
Maana ke hum yaar nahi…
Phool jo band hai panno mein
Tum usko dhool bana dena
Baat chhide jo meri kahin
Tum usko bhool bataa dena
Lekin wo bhool ho aisi
Jis’se bezaar nahin
Tu jo soye toh meri tarah
Ik pal ko bhi karaar nahin
Maana ki hum yaar nahi…
