I want you

The guilty undertaker sighs

The lonesome organ grinder cries

The silver saxophones say I should refuse you

The cracked bells and washed-out horns

Blow into my face with scorn

But it's not that way

I wasn't born to lose you

I want you, I want you I want you so bad

Honey, I want you.

The drunken politician leaps

Upon the street where mothers weep

And the saviors who are fast asleep

They wait for you

And I wait for them to interrupt

Me drinkin' from my broken cup

And ask for me Open up the gate for you

I want you, I want you Yes, I want you so bad

Honey, I want you.

Now all my fathers they've gone down

True love they've been without it

But all their daughters put me down

'Cause I don't think about it.

Well, I return to the Queen of Spades

And talk with my chambermaid

She knows that I'm not afraid

To look at her She is good to me

And there's nothing she doesn't see

She knows where I'd like to be

But it doesn't matter I want you, I want you

Yes, I want you so badHoney, I want you.

Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit

He spoke to me, I took his flute

No, I wasn't very cute to him - Was I ?

But I did though because he lied

Because he took you for a ride

And because time was on his side

And because I ..I want you, I want you

Yes, I want you so bad Honey, I want you.

Bob Dylan

तुझ पे दिल कुर्बान

ए मेरे प्यारे वतन ए मेरे बिछड़े चमन,

तुझ पे दिल कुर्बान.

तू ही मेरी आरजू, तू ही मेरी आबरू,

तू ही मेरी जान.


तेरे दामन से जो आये, उन हवाओं को सलाम,

चूम लूँ मैं उस जुबान को जिस पे आये तेरा नाम,

सब से प्यारी सुबह तेरी , सब से रंगीन तेरी शाम;

तुझ पे दिल कुर्बान.


माँ का दिल बनके कभी सीने से लग जाता हैं तू,

और कभी नन्ही सी बेटी बन के याद आता हैं तू,

जितना याद आता हैं मुझको उतना तड़पाता हैं तू;

तुझ पे दिल कुर्बान.


छोड़कर तेरी ज़मीन को दूर आ पहुचे हैं हम,

फिर भी हैं यही तमन्ना तेरे जर्रों की कसम,

हम जहां पैदा हुए, उस जगह ही निकले ये दम;

तुझ पे दिल कुर्बान.

रूठ के हमसे कहीं

This is a heart smasher!

and the picturisation really complements the song.

रूठ के हमसे कहीं जब चले जाओगे तुम

ये ना सोचा था कभी इतने याद आओगे तुम


मैं तो ना चला था दो कदम भी तुम बिन

फिर भी मेरा बचपन यही समझा हर दिन

छोड़ के मुझे भला अब कहाँ जाओगे तुम

ये ना सोचा था कभी इतने याद आओगे तुम


बातों कभी हाथों से भी मारा है तुम्हें

सदा येही कहके ही पुकारा है तुम्हें

क्या कर लोगे मेरा जो बिगड़ जाओगे तुम

ये ना सोचा था कभी इतने याद आओगे तुम


देखो मेरे आँसू येही करते हैं पुकार

आओ चले आओ मेरे भाई मेरे यार

पोंछने आँसू मेरे क्या नहीं आओगे तुम

ये ना सोचा था कभी इतने याद आओगे तुम

Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikandar

आज फिर आप की कमी सी है

शाम से आँख में नमी सी है
आज फिर आप की कमी सी है


दफन कर दो हमें के साँस मिले

नब्ज़ कुछ देर से थमी सी है



वक़्त रहता नहीं कहीं टिक कर
इस की आदत भी आदमी सी है

कोई रिश्ता नहीं रहा फिर भी
इक तस्लीम लाज़मी सी है

Romantic Dialogues...the best of 'em

My Best Friend's Wedding
If you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud,
or the monment....just paasses you by.

Phenomenon
George: Hey, would you love me for the rest of my life?
Lace: No...m gonna love you for the rest of mine.

Notting Hill
I'm also just a girl standing in front of a guy asking him to love her.

The Bridges of Madison County
I dont want to need you coz I can't have you.

Jerry Maguire
I love you. You complete me.

Runaway Bride
If I don't ask you to be mine I'll regret it for the rest of my life.

The English Patient
I promise I'll come back for you. I promise I'll never leave you.

As Good As It Gets
Melvin: You want me to be a better man.
Carol: That's may be the best compliment of my life.

When Harry Met Sally
I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because
when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody,
you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.




Love

Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love.
think not you can direct the course of love, for love,
if it finds you worthy, directs your course.
Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself.
But if you love and must needs have desires,
let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook
that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart
and a song of praise upon your lips.

Khalil Gibran

Where The Mind is Without Fear

Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father,
let my country awake

Rabindranath Tagore

The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;


Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,


And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood,
and I — I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.

His house is in the village though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer

To stop without a farmhouse near

Between the woods and frozen lake

The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.
