'Hum hai raahi pyar ke'- Philosophical song from the Hindi Movie 'Nau Do Gyarah' (1957)


Dear Friends, 

Now I am starting a series on some wonderful Philosophical songs, in Hindi/ Bengali/ English. 

Today, I am posting a very famous song, which tells us about life. It is 'Hum hai raahi pyar ke' from the film- 'Nau Do Gyarah' (1957). 





Most of you already know the song, the lyrics, by heart :). I really like the way it tells us to remain steady while facing the pair of opposites (like sunshine/ moonlight,  happiness/ sadness, peace- pain), in life. 

Wonderful music, lyrics and effortlessly sung by the great Kishore Kumar! Music is very easy, free flowing, as light as the person adhering to the philosophy would feel himself! Because of the 'let go' or 'accept' approach, he will be able to enjoy life to the fullest, in each moment. 



'Humne har tarah ke phool, haar me piroh liye'- such a wnderful expression!!! Experiencing the Bliss of Being Alive!!


'Raah me pade hain hum, kabse aap ki qasam/ Dekhiye to kam se kam, boliye na boliye'-  And this stanza is so Simple!!! We just get amazed by the ease of expression here!!




Here are the lyrics:-


Hum hain raahi pyar ke, humse kuchh na boliye 
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 
Hum usi ke ho liye 
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 


Dard bhi hume qabul, chain bhi hume qabul 
Humne har tarah ke phool, haar me piroh liye
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 


Dhup thi nasib me, to dhup men liya hai dum 
Chandni mili to hum, chandni me so liye
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 


Dil pe aasra kiye, hum to bus yun hi jiye
Ek kadam pe hans liye, ek kadam pe ro liye
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 


Raah me pade hain hum, kabse aap ki qasam
Dekhiye to kam se kam, boliye na boliye
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 



Hum hain raahi pyar ke, humse kuchh na boliye 
Jo bhi pyar se mila, hum usi ke ho liye 



(Lyrics available in the internet).




Enjoy :)


Jai Shri Krishna.
