~ Songs of my heart ~

Below is a list of songs that are close to my heart...
Music is food for the soul, indeed.

1.Kau Ilhamku..
(You are my inspiration)

Beribu bintang di langit kini menghilang
Meraba aku dalam kelam...
Rembulan mengambang kini makin suram
Pudar ilhamku tanpa arah.

Sedetik wajahmu muncul dalam diam
Ada kerlipan ada sinar
Itukah bintang ataupun rembulan
Terima kasih ku ucapkan.

Izinkan ku mencuri bayangan wajahmu
Izinkan ku mencuri khayalan denganmu
Maafkanlah...
Andai lagu ini menganggu ruangan hidupmu
Kau senyumlah...
Sekadar memori kita di arena in...

Kau ilhamku....

~Manbai~


note: This is just one of the songs that makes my heart skip a beat....for ties invisibly bound to it, for memories awakened by it...so very vividly, for reasons only known to my frail heart...


2. Ye hassen vaadiyaan - Roja

Ye haseen vaadiyaan ye khula aasmaan
Aa gaye hum kahan ay mere saajna
In bahaaron mein dil ki kali khil gayi
Mujhko tum jo mile har khushi mil gayi

Tere honthon pe hain husn ki bijliyaan
Tere gaalon pe hain zulf ki badliyaan
Tere baalon ki khushboo se mehke chaman
Sangmarmar ke jaisa ye tera badan

Meri jaanejaan ye hai teri chaandni
Chhed do tum aaj koi pyaar ki raagini

Tere aanchal ki chhaaon ke tale meri manzil mujhe mil gayi
Teri palkhon ki chaaon ke tale mohaabat mujhe mil gayi

Jee karta hai saajna dil mein tumko bitha loon
Aa masti ki raat mein apna tumko bana loon
Uthne lage hain toofan kya meer seene mein ay sanam
Tumhein chaahoonga dilon jaan se meri jaanejaan teri kasam

3. Humsafar - Silk Route

Hum jo chale, tum bhi chalo saath
Phir kya khabar ke din hain ke raat
Bas mein nahin rahenge jazbaat
Tum jo sanam hamare chalo saath....

Sur se saji geeton si teri
Tujhbhin sanam bhaye na koyi baat
Asie kaho chaloon aaj
Aao sanam sune hain dil ke saaz

Kaise bhi rahen ho kaisi dagar
koyi bhi rasta ho koyi safar ho
Chalte rahen hum jo tum humsafar ho

Din ye kahe bheto hamare saath
Aao idhar ishara kare raat
hum ko magar cahiye wohi shaam
jis par sanam likha ho tera naam

chandni raatein yann (........)
chahe din ka wo koyi paher ho
chalte rahein hum jo tum humsafar ho

Galiyon mein phirta hain banjara dil ye
Tujhko hi dhoondega awara dil ye
Karta hain jaane ishaare kya dil ye
