We get our ‘inspirations’ from all nooks and corners…. then why should music stay behind? A lot of times music has pulled people out of depression! I have one straight philosophy: ‘you can get inspiration from anywhere, provided you’re in the right state of mind to absorb it’! So I have my list of song which inspire me no end…. And I’d love to share them with you. So… here goes………
AASHAYEIN……(Iqbal): You might be surprised to find such a relatively new song, right up here! But don’t be…. This is one song that I can go on hearing for like eternity and yet not be over with it! There are not too many lyrics and only the word ‘aashayein’ keeps repeating all the time! And it is one of those very few songs that can ‘fill the moment’…. If you know what I mean! Wonderfully sung by Kay Kay….
- My fave lines: “Aashayein khile dil ki, ummedein hase dil ki…. ab mushkil nahin kuch bhi, nahin kuch bhi”
KAL HO NAA HO……(Kal Ho Naa Ho): I think most of you will agree with me on this one! A song that makes you reflect on life, and makes you want to live every moment to the fullest…. ‘coz kya pata… ‘kal ho na ho’! The wonderful lyrics are ably supported by some great music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy…… and some beautiful singing by Sonu Nigam!
- My fave lines: “har pal yahan jee bhar jeyo, jo hai sama kal ho na ho”
HAAN YEHI RASTA HAI TERA……(Lakshya): …And I’m Javed Akhtar’s fan! Wow what lyrics man! And yet another Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy creation! Its one song that pushes you towards all your possible dreams! It gives you the conviction that they can be fulfilled! Very very inspiring….
- My fave lines: “Himmat se jo, koi chale…. Dharti hile, kadmon tal…. Tu chal yun hi ab subha shaam, rukna jhukna nahin tera kaam, payega jo lakshya hai tera”
AASMAN KE PAAR SHAYAD……(Fame Gurukul finalists): This song should be heard by even the non-followers of Fame Gurukul…. It plays every once in a while on sony entertainment television! The lyrics are toh inspiring only… but it has also been sung so beautifully by each and every one…. And the video is also really pleasing to the eye! Its better than the Indian Idol song ‘Pal’!
- My fave lines: “Aasman ke paar shayad, aur koi aasman hoga…. badalon ke parbatoon par, koi barish ka mukaam hoga’
5. KANHON SE MILTE HAIN KANDHE….(Lakshya): Another one from lakshya, and both are justified in the list! This one is more about boosting the team spirit rather than the individual…. but both are equally inspiring! The video in the song was touching….
- My fave lines: “Ab jo bhi ho, shola banke patthar hai pighlana, ab jo bhi ho, badal banke parbat par hai chhana”
So those were the inspirations…. but some others that I had to leave out with a heavy heart….
-‘chal diye… na socha, na samjha, na pucha… bas chal diye’
-‘Jahan ho pyar ka mausam, jahan sab dilon ka ho snagam’
-‘Humko toh hai pura yakeen, hum jaisa koi nahin’
-‘Baar baar haan, bolo yaar haan, apni jeet ho… unki haar haan’
-‘Oh mitwa. sun mitwa, tujhko kya dar hai re, yeh dharti apni hai, apna ambar hai re’
-‘Dil hai chhota sa, chhoti si asha’
-‘Zindagi ka safar, hai yeh kaisa safar’
