Tadka spice – Ever wondered about a place where you and your loved one are all alone? AR Rahman gives you just that in ‘Kahin To…’ from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na… :)

kahin to, kahin to, hogi woh
duniya, jahaan tu mere saath hai
jahaan main, jahaan tu,
aur jahaan
bas tere mere jazbaat hain

hogi jahaan subah teri
palkon ki kirnon mein
lori jahaan chaand ki
sune teri baahon mein…

jaane na kahan woh duniya hai
jaane na woh hai bhi ya nahin
jahaan meri zindagi mujhse
itni khafa nahin…

jaane na kahan woh duniya hai
jaane na woh hai bhi ya nahin
jahaan meri zindagi mujhse
itni khafa nahin…

saansein kho gayi hai kiski aahon mein…
main kho hoon jaane kiski baahon mein…
manzilon se raahein dhoondti chali….
aur kho gayi hai manzil kahin raahon mein

kahin to, kahin to…
hai nasha teri meri har mulaqat mein
hothon se, hothon ko
choomte… rehte hain hum har baat pe

kehti hai fiza jahaan
tere zameen-asmaan
jahaaan hai tu meri hassi
meri khushi meri jaan…

jaane na kahaan woh duniya hai
jaane na woh bhi ya nahin
jahaan meri zindagi mujh se
itni khafa nahin…

jaane na kahaan woh duniya hai
jaane na woh bhi ya nahin
jahaan meri zindagi mujh se
itni khafa nahin…

Song analysis – ‘Kahin To…’ from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is another of those tracks which will tell you why AR Rahman is better than the rest! The songs of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na are full of freshness and so is ‘Kahin To…’. Rashid Ali and Vasundhara Das bring the ethereal Rahman zing into ‘Kahin To…’ from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and this is why you’ll be surprised how different this track sounds. The beauty of the song also lies in the lyrics, which dwell on the thoughts of fabtasy, about a world where the two lovers can bask in the beauty of each other’s love and nothing else. AR Rahman’s genius lies in understanding the theme/mood of the song and then giving the perfect score which keeps the harmony intact, which seems the case with ‘Kahin To…’ from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na too. All in all, it is a beautiful song, which is just to be enjoyed with loads of day-dreaming and smiles to accompany… :)

    this song is a superb romantic song. Heads off to A R Rahman for his beautiful tune and to the lyrisist and at last to Aamir Khan.
