Remember when



Beautiful song and video,couldn't resist to put this video and lyrics on blog,nothing more sweet then growing up with someone and to have someone to love you always.

..Remember when I was young and so were you
and time stood still and love was all we knew
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried
Remember when

Remember when we vowed the vows
and walked the walk
Gave our hearts, made the start, it was hard
We lived and learned, life threw curves
There was joy, there was hurt
Remember when

Remember when old ones died and new were born
And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged
We came together, fell apart
And broke each other's hearts
Remember when

Remember when the sound of little feet
was the music
We danced to week to week
Brought back the love, we found trust
Vowed we'd never give it up
Remember when

Remember when thirty seemed so old
Now lookn' back it's just a steppin' stone
To where we are,
Where we've been
Said we'd do it all again
Remember when

Remember when we said when we turned gray
When the children grow up and move away
We won't be sad, we'll be glad
For all the life we've had
And we'll remember when .

Dikhayi diye yun..




First time writing about a urdu ghazal on my Blog..have always loved Urdu and Sufi poetry. This ghazal is by famous urdu poet Mir Taqi Mir ..written i think 250 yrs back..He wrote beautiful poetry in Urdu and Persian.
This gazal was in movie ,Bazaar..all great actors in the movie.
This is a pretty sad setting in the Movie in this song - the two Men sipping drinks are buying a young girl,
while the innocent lovers are lost in their feelings. Movie ends even more sadly.
The poetry is deep..jus have tried to write in short about the meaning of words..

Dikhayi Diye Yun Ke Bekhud Kiya
Hamein Aap Se Bhi Juda Kar Chale..

......I caught a glimpse of him/her and lost control of my senses..
and u separated me from myself and got so much into u that forgot myself but its all that matters in love,not me, just love.

Jabheen sajda karte hi karte gayi
Haq-e-bandagi ham adaa kar chale

..I bowed and kept bowing so much and did my duty of being faithful and truthful.and have right to love the person and bow in front of him/her.
 
Parasthish kiya tak ke aye boot tujhe 
Nazar mein sabhon ki khuda kar chale

.. I worshiped you and made u god in front of everyone..(as the person sacrificed his love and who sacrifices his love is worshiped and considered great by all in world) ..boot=idol/beloved.

Bahut Arzoo Thi Gali Ki Teri
   So Yaas-e-Lahoo Mein Naha Kar Chale

..Longed for your companionship and to live with u, but was utterly disappointed/dejected.
Yaas mean dejection/disappointment. Yaas-e-lahoo is the intensity of dejection/disappointment.
I yearned and desired so much for you and to be near u (lane)that I bathed in my blood in despair.

"Haq-e-bandagi=devotionaly Truthful"

Return to Innocence

Return to Innocence-Enigma


That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

Love, devotion
Feeling, emotion
Love, devotion
Feeling, emotion

Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart, my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence

If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself, don't hide
Just believe in destiny
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence

That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

Don't care what people say
Follow just your own way
Don't give up, don't give up
To return, to return to innocence

If you want, then laugh
If you must, then cry
Be yourself, don't hide
Just believe in destiny 

Love this song by Enigma.no words to describe the music.too beautiful,soothing..
This song is about more than being yourself if only on a spiritual level .
.and return to innocence..where you can laugh and cry and sort out your thoughts .. this song is an elixir .
also it tells to strive for achieving something,simultaneously remain content with your actual self and keep moving ahead in life with all ur innocence.

Viva Forever


"Viva Forever"

Do you still remember
How we used to be
Feeling together, believe in whatever
My love has said to me
Both of us were dreamers
Young love in the sun
Felt like my saviour, my spirit I gave ya
We'd only just begun

Hasta mañana
Always be mine

Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever,
For the moment
Ever searching for the one

Yes I still remember,
Every whispered word
The touch of your skin, giving life from within
Like a love song that I'd heard
Slipping through our fingers,
Like the sands of time
Promises made, every memory saved
Has reflections in my mind

Hasta mañana
Always be mine


Back where I belong now,
Was it just a dream
Feelings unfold, they will never be sold
And the secret's safe with me

hasta mañanae
Always be mine


Love this song by spice girls..i remember watching this video lot ,long time back..on music channels on tv.
the video was strange at that time for me..in the video two kids are roaming in woods..and suddenly some fairies appear..and one kid is fascinated by them,follows them and disappears in a cube like thing with fairies,..the other friend doesn't knows where his friend went,all he knows is he went into a world from where he will never come back and it will remain a mystery.
whether it is the result of death, disease, or just separation. he struggles with his emotions, which is symbolized through him struggling to solve the rubik's cube. By the end of the video, he places the rubik's cube in a case and throws it into a giant vending machine, indicating tha he  will keep the memories of him always.

The big vending machine at the end symbolizes a memory bank,and cubes in it memories.
the song is about  losing someone u love/like...and u still cant figure out How.
hasta manana in spanish means.will see u tomorrow..

Mystery of Love





Mystery of love by David gray..
 Few lines i like from the song..

A tangle of tongues
Flesh flowers and thistles
Of conscience, spittle and skin
We can't change the past
So we'll raise this cup to our lips
And drink it all in
And meantime back in civilisation
The rain is cold as steel
But the mystery of love
It just keep growing
The more my heart reveals

As sure as the rose
The bright day blooms
As surely still it fades
And the night kindles stars
On empty winds
And ghosts along the colonnades
And slow but sure
The sands are falling
As the bridge burns
Beneath the wheel
And the mystery of love
It just keeps growing
The more my heart reveals
The more my heart reveals..

Im your Man







You can be a million miles away from me
You can be kissin' another man's lips
But I'm you man, I'm your man


If tomorrow would stay behind
And I close my eyes and I never wake up
I'm still your man
I'm still your man, I'm your man


I pray to God, I pray for time
I pray I can hold you in my arms
Pray with me eternally
Time is forever ours


It's the way that you smile
The way that you cry
Why I always want to be your man
it's the way that I feel, when I feel you inside
Why I always want to be your man
You can be a million miles away from me
you can be kissin' another man's lips
But I'm your man, I'm your man
They can take away my heart and my soul
They can even tell me you don't love me no more
But I'm your man, I'm your man


I won't give up, I won't let you down
I promise to always stand by your side
Pray for faith, pray for you
Pray that we'll always be


It's the way that you smile
The way that you cry
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way that I feel, when I feel you inside
Why I always want to be your man


It's the way your weak
It's the way that you're strong
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way you believe
It's the love that you give
Why I always want to be your man.


I'm your man by Enrique iglesias .. One of the best song of Enrique.The song is perfect ,has the perfect words to tell someone how u love them for everything they are..when they are weak,strong,or smile,cry..and will stand by them always. Doesn't matter if they are far from you,but how thy feel u inside them,and the love they feel,is important.,Song has all the passion and devotion at the same time for someone.Enrique's voice just melts into the tune. ...its soothing.You can feel the longing in his voice.he brings the passion into his voice so smoothly, the listener is just spell bound.

Flightless Bird


I was a quick wet boy,
diving too deep for coins
All of your street light eyes wide on my plastic toys
Then when the cops closed the fair,
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map
and called for you everywhere

Have I found you Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
or lost you, american mouth Big pill looming

Now I'm a fat house cat

Nursing my sore blunt tongue

 Watching the warm poison rats curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold
And clean blood of Christ mountain stream

Have I found you Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding
or lost you,
american mouth Big pill stuck going down

I have been listening this song from Iron and Wine ,over and over again ,each day..since i heard it for the first time..
Fell in love with it the first time heard it,also as it features in one of the best romantic movies ever(may not for every1 :-)),,Twilight.

The lyrical imagery is meant to inspire a sensation of the loss of youthful innocence and an embracing of mature love with all of its challenges and rewards.

People are subject to their own interpretation and meaning. No one can really tell what it means except the writer.

 but would say that writers deep thoughts truly drowned me.
 Here's my interpretation..

first part of song,a quick wet boy.. represents innocence and childhood..
"diving too deep for coins" going too far and deep for something.
cut my baby hair is about loss of innocence..
stealing a dog-eared map and called for you everywhere,is trying to find your love ,
the one whos your better half..

dog eared map,,a folded map,because one has been looking for love everywhere and now the map is folded..people have looked there already,and those places are not for you,you wont find what you are looking for there.

Hav i found you..if u are really mine now?
The flightless bird is a special person, a flightless bird, someone who has evolved from their current state (a bird) to become an exceptional, special person,who wont leave u or fly away 4m u.  jealous and weeping because they can’t find anyone to accept them for who they are.

Nursing my sore blunt tongue..when u have a sore tongue.and u say things bluntly,which causes serious consequences. 
American Mouth, the ability to communicate, how the two lovers understand and talk to each other. Big pill looming , the future, what can happen to this love.

The house cat part is an analogy to becoming lazy in love, and not appreciating the person as the one who is your true love anymore. Pissing, ruining the relationship because you got too comfortable.This happens with every1 some day i believe,when you are so close and comfortable with someone and stop respecting there importance in your life,and may be take them for granted most of the times.

Later ,where the lover realizes that the relationship has changed. I see the clean blood of Christ to means I’ve judged and I want some atonement, to reconcile what we have become.

the love makes two lovers feel  like they could fly And since being made feel like they could fly, it’s lost now. But, American mouth, we can still communicate, this does not have to end, the big pill (the future) is stuck, but the two can stop it from going down.

"Mi Chico Latino"

"Mi Chico Latino"

Donde esta el hombre
con fuego en la sangre
Ive got a secret.

I cannot keep it Its just a whisper of a distant memory
Just a dream or so it seems

Take me back to the place id rather be
You left a fire in my eyes
That lightens up the darkest skies

Im giving up im letting go

I'll find my way so

 Take me back to my sweet lavida
Find my love
my dolce vita S
how me where i need to go
Donde esta mi chico latino ..


Stolen moments
time has broken
My eyes ares open to this
life-long mystery
And so i'll go

with what i know

Take my chances and run with destiny
Now there's fire in my eyes

I'll break away and say goodbye

Im free to be im letting go

I'll find my way so

 Ay-y-y Que sueno, dolce y pequeno Yo no se yo no se Pero no es un cuento Mi corazon con tormento Chico latino te quiero y simplemente deseo Yo lo se el camino Es un sueno latino

(Take me back to my sweet lavida) Take me back
Find my find my find my love
my dolce vita
Show me where i need to go
Donde esta mi chico latino

This song by geri halliwell, from the band Spice Girls,first ever girl band which became so popular ..

later after she parted with spice girls ,this song is fresh in my memory.though other songs were great too,from her debut album Schizophonic..


Geri's Voice cant really be described..its different,husky,smoky,  soft, strangely sexy..
The song is in english with italian and spanish words..which makes it more beautiful.

the song is about search of love.. heres meaning of some Italian and Spanish words in the song..from the best of my knowledge .
Donde esta el hombre con fuego en la sangre..means Where is this the man with fire in the blood


Donde esta mi chico latino ..Where is this latin Man..


Que sueno, dolce y pequeno
Yo no se yo no se Pero no es un cuento
Mi corazon con tormento Chico latino te quiero y
simplemente deseo Yo lo se el camino Es un sueno latino

 That I sound, sweet and small but not. But it is not. a story My heart with torment. Latin boy I want and desire .

dolce is italian word ,means..sweet.

dolce vita- Sweet life

Donde esta mi chico latino-- Where is my  latino Man ..

Latin music and lyrics always fascinates.Don't forget to listen to this song :)..will post some more soon.
