dil dhoondta hai!

Translation:

The heart once again yearns for those leisurely times
When we could sit back, and let our imagination wander

Lying laidback in the courtyard,under the mild winter sun,
Covering the face under the shade of your veil
And alternately turning over & lying backside up.

When the winds blew in the summer night
We'd keep awake late; lying on cool sheets;
gazing at the stars lying sprawled on the terrace

When it snowed in winters on top of a hill,
We 'd be listening to the sound of silence echoing through the valley
re-living melting moments
Lyrics:
Dil dhoondta hai, fir wahi fursat ke raat din
baithe rahe tasawwoor-ye-jaana kiye huye

Jaadon ki narm dhoop aur aangan mein lait kar
aankhon pe kheench kar tere aanchal ke saaye ko
aundhe pade rahe kabhi karwat liye huye

Yaa garmiyon ki raat jo purwaiyan chale
thandi safed chaadaron pe jaage der tak
taaron ko dekhte rahe chath par pade huye

Barfilee sardiyon mein kisi bhi pahaad par
waadee mein goonjtee huyi, khamooshiyaan sunein
aankhon mein bheege bheege se lamhe liye huye

This beautiful song and video threw me back to my childhood days. I am missing my home and those care free days. I watch this video every night before going to sleep.

@bashubibi: I have a friend who says that she once believed she could be perennially happy if she got to hear Dil dhoondta hai once every day.

On a personal note, I am very soon moving back to India and trust me although it sounds very cliched, this video has been a big motivation for my decision. Thanks once again my friend....May God Bless you and your family forever !!!!

[harryss65]

Dear harryss65,

This video now happens to be my most favorite on Youtube. I fall short of words for describing this heart touching compilation that you have uploaded. Although I stay now in US for many years, I have realized one thing from your video that.....not one ounce of materialism can ever replace these "Fursat ke Din".

[harryss65]

yes!...i totally agree...& by God! I'm a very 'wealthy' man

[700salim]

simply Mind Blowing... very nostalgic..don't know anything about you. but May GOD bless you and your family, and keep bad eyes miles away from your family.. with love Salim.

Creation of Madan Mohan is always pleasure.. everfresh
