I think with these 'Kaminey' songs..I have fallen in love with the 'Gulzar and Vishal Bharadwaj' duo, all over again!!
The title track is just too good...the lyrics the feel the music the sound..everythin just right!
I really thought that this movie didnt have a title track..after all what can a person weave around the word 'Kaminey' that can actually be put to music and sung...BUT...I guess I didnt realise we are not talking about just another lyricist!
The lyrics are just superb..so close to life...and I think I have realised its not all that bad to be called a 'Kamina'..we are all mean..we are all selfish...we are no saints...even the saints aint Gods...I think this song has just redefined the whole meaning of the word "Kamina"..
Hail Gulzar!
Hail Vishal Bharadwaj!
Kaminey::
Kya kare zindagi isko hum jo mile,Iski jaan kha gaye, raat din ke gile
Raat din gile…Meri aarzoo kamini,Mere khwab bhi kaminey,
Ek dil se dosti thi, yeh huzoor bhi kaminey,
Kya kare zindagi isko hum jo mile,Iski jaan kha gaye, raat din ke gile…
Kabhi zindagi se maanga, pinjre mein chaand la do,
Kabhi laanten deke, kaha aasmaa pe taango
Jeene ke sab kareene the hamesha se kaminey,
Kaminey kaminey kaminey kaminey,
Meri daastaan kamini, mere raasten kaminey,
Ek dil se dosti thi, yeh huzoor bhi kaminey…
Jiska bhi chehra cheela, andar se aur nikla,
Masoom sa kabootar naacha to more nikla,
Kabhi hum kaminey nikle, kabhi doosre kaminey,
Kaminey kaminey kaminey kaminey,
Meri dosti kamini, mere yaar bhi kaminey,
Ek dil se dosti thi, yeh huzoor bhi kaminey…
