The age old topic '
love' in the mystical sufi attire.....a transcendental musical experience...that's Teri Deewani. The object of love varies...for majnoon it may be laila.....for Einstein physics.....Jesus compassion, Muhammed social stability.......and so on.....but the characteristic features of the lover remains same......
.UNCONDITIONAL devotion, obsession, sacrifice, compulsion, purity, zero fear, serenity, sorrows, agony......indeed a long list that makes real sense only with experience..........
At a time when mutual contract for survival convenience based on rigid conditions and clauses, demanding stringent efforts to get things keep going, is mistaken for love ......Kailash is sweeping away the dust off on the forgotten sufi wisdom......that until and unless an emotion is effortless and doesnt flows on its own, impurity is lurking beneath........
The translation attempted here is
not word by word.......emphasis has been to capture the essence and tranfer the feeling.......the intrinsic difficulty imposed by the difference between emotionally cathected urdu and scientifically attuned english, along with the translator's ineptness might have resulted in a drastic fall in beauty..........but that was all I could afford.......
preet ki lath mohe aaisi laagi
ho gayi main matwaali
bal bal jaaun apane piya ko
he main jaaun vaari vaari
mohe sudh budh naa rahi tan mann ki
yeh toh jaane duniya saari
bebas aur laachar phiru main
haari main dil haari - 2
tere naam se jee loon - 2
tere naam se marr jaaun - 2
teri jaan ke sadke mein kuchh aaisa kar jaaun
tune kya kar dala marr gayi main mitt gayi main
ho ri ha ri ho gayi main
teri deewani deewani- 2
ishq junoon jab hadh se badh jaaye - 2
haste haste aashiq suli chadh jaaye
ishq ka jaadu sar chadha kara bole - 2
khoob laga lo pehre raste rab khole
yahi ishq di marzi hain
yahi rab di marzi hain
tere bin jeena kaisa
haan khudgarzi hai
tune kya kar dala marr gayi main mitt gayi main
ho ri ha ri ho gayi main
teri deewani deewani - 4
oh ho oh hoohhhh...
he main rang rangeeli deewani - 2
ke main albeli main mastani
gaaun bajaaun sabko rijhaaun
he main deen dhram se begaani
ke main deewani main deewani
teri deewani deewani...
Smitten and carried by love ..
It seems......my senses are lost.......
Still let no difficulties fall upon her......
I am ready to take it all on my self.....
Any way the whole world knows that,
I no more care much for my own.....
Lost at heart...I wander .....
Aimless around .....dejected......
Oh beloved.... I live by your name
And I will die by the same......
As an offering at your feet my heart is always
longing to do more and more of the sort....
Now you tell me......
What magic have you done.........
I am absorbed and no more...
But for as your ardent admirer,
Passionate beyond limit and words.....
Philosophers and poets told it right...
When love crosses a limit.....
A strange strength sprouts within..
Then for the beloved's sake even death
is as light and pleasant as a smile...
Oh reader,If you are still not convinced,
Take up this challenge posed by love..
"Try keeping obstacles in my path..
as many and as rigid as you wish.."
You will find them melting apart..
This is the divine will, will of love...
Now dear tell me.......
How will i live without you.....
It may be selfishness, but I can't help..
Dear reader, you may be thinking about my where abouts........
I am just a colourful crazy lover.....
Thrilled even when alone....
I sing, dance...induce cheer and rejoice...
Still alone and aloof...in my hut of solitude..
