O re piya - Rahat Fateh Ali Khan

 Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, the man from whom one tends to expect a lot whenever his name appears in credits, croons 'O Re Piya'. Jaideep Sahni is at the helm of writing for third song in a row which is not really a kind of romantic number which one expects from Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. A situational track with shades of a 'qawalli' setting, 'O Re Piya' takes some time to register itself in the mind of a listener.

Yet another number which is easy on ears, 'O Re Piya' would be enjoyed more with the narrative rather than being played out loud before one has witnessed the situation in the film where the song appears. A song that boasts of good quality but doesn't quite make for a popular track in the offering. 

Sajda - My name is Khan

The soundtrack of the latest offering of Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan, " My Name Is Khan ", boasts of Sufi flavour. Composed by Johar's favourite Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, the album has six originals and most of the compositions are soul-stirring.

The album starts with " Sajda ". Sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Shankar Mahadevan and Richa Sharma, it's a Sufi number that tugs at one's heartstrings. The sounds of tablas and dholaks keep the listener hooked. With great voices behind the mike, "Sajda" is a must hear.

Afreen Afreen By Nusrat Fateh ali khan

Afreen...This is the most famous song of Nusrat saab, The song that was turned into a vedio as well, with Famous Model Lisa Ray, looking her best EVER!!! With its beautiful and deeply discriptive lyrics, the song can make you feel the enchanting beauty of a devine virgin, untouched and pure, right inside u, or around you. I actually get up to look at the mirror by the time the song gets over, and yes it can make u ’’Feel beautiful’’ inside... I wonder if beauty was ever discribed in better words that these!!! ..... AFREEN..meaning ’’the purest, most beautiful and heavenly’’
Read here a couplet or two from the song...


Husn-e-jana ki tareef mumkin nahi, tu bhi dekhe agar to kahe hum-nasheen...
Afreen afreen afreen afreen...

Aisa Dekha nahi khoobsoorat koi,
Jism jaise ajanta ki moorat koi,
Jism jaise nigaho ka jaadoo koi,
Jism nagma koi, Jism khushboo koi,
jism jaise machalti hui raagini,
Jism jaise mehekti hui chandani,
jism jaise ki khilta hua ik kamal,
jism jaise ki sooraj ki pehli kiran,
jism tarsha hua dilkash-o-dil nasheen
sandali sandali, marmari marmari.

and....

Aankhe dekhi to main dekhta reh gaya,
Jaam do aur dono hi do aatisha,
Aankhe yaan maikade ke wo do baab hain,
Aankhein unko kahun yaan kahun khaab hain,
Aankhein neechi hui to haya ban gayi,
Aankhein oonchi hui to dua ban gayi,
Aankhein jhuk kar uthi to kaza,
Aankhein uth ker jhuki to ada,
Aankhein jin mein hai faila aasmaan-o- zameen,
nargisi nargisi, surmagi surmagi!!!

Mann ki lagan by Rahat Fatehali Khan

Mann Ki Lagan" is the one of finest composition by any Pakistani singer sung soulfully by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. One wonders the musical prowess of composer Shahi as composes brilliantly with regular musical instruments like Tabla, Sarangi and Harmonium. This song creates an environment of serenity and spread fragrance of love in air. A typical Sufi composition sung in different moods by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. Amjad Islam Amjad lyrics are too impressive as it touches heart.
