Piya tora kaisa abhimaan

The whole soundtrack of Raincoat (2004) follows the mood of the movie. Lazy languid melodious and almost morose with a sad longing. I remember seeing the movie in December 2004 and buying the soundtrack the same day. It remains one of my favourite albums.

The past few weeks, the second para of piya tora kaisa abhimaan has been playing in my head, especialy as I drive to work each morning.


Piya tora kaisa abhimaan

Saghan saawan laayi, Kadam bahaar,
Mathura se doli laaye, chaaron kahaar
Nahi aaaye, Nahi aaaye
Kesariyaa balamaa hamaar
Angana badaa sun saan

Piya tora kaisa abhimaan

Apne nayan se neer bahaaye
Apni jamuna khud aap hi banaave
Laakh baar usme hi nahaye
Poora na hoyi asnaan
Sookhe kes, rookhe bhes
Manwaa bejaan

piya tora kaisa abhimaan?

Bol Sakhi kahe kari saajo singhar
Na pahni ab....kaanch na haar
Khali chandan lagao anmaa hamaar
chandan garala samaan
