RRR SONG #4 – KABHI KISI KO MUKAMMAL JAHAN NAHIN MILTA

RRR Songs (Songs of Regret, Repentance and Ruefulness)

I started this new series on 17 Jan 21 on my Facebook Group Yaad Kiya Dil Ne. My efforts failed to involve people in writing their own stuff about songs and music rather than copying and pasting from here and there or worse, just sharing url of songs from YouTube. Hence, I had decided to give the group a burial that it deserved rather than making it like thousands of groups on Facebook about songs with nothing unique about them at all.

I hope you liked RRR Song #3: Hamsafar saath apna chhod chale. Here is the next song:

Song #4
Kabhi kisi ko mukammal jahan nahin milta

A Reality of Life

All virtues on earth are relative. A few years ago I wrote a piece called Absolute Virtue . Some of you who are interested can go through it.

The fact is that there is only one Absolute and He is God; all the others have all virtues in relative terms.

There is merit in this too since all our difficulties are relative too and transient at that just as all good things that happen to us.

However, in this song, Nida Fazli and the gentlest of composers Khayyam, have made it look like that it is sad and soulful.

Look at the lyrics of this song of Regret and Ruefulness:

कभी किसिको मुकम्मल जहा नही मिलता
कही जमी तो कही आस्मा नही मिलता

जिसे भी देखिए वो अपने आप मे गुम है
जूबा मिली है मगर हुंजुबा नही मिलता

बुज़ा सका है भला कौन वक्त के शोले
ये ऐसी आग है जिस मे धुआ नही मिलता

तेरे जहाँ मे ऐसा नही के प्यार ना हो
जहा उम्मीद हो इसकी वाहा नही मिलता

Reality of YKDN Too

It is as relative and transient as anything else in this world. The way the world has been made, जिसे भी देखिए वो अपने आप मे गुम है. As Sahir said: कौन रोता है किसी और की ख़ातिर ऐ दोस्त, सबको अपनी ही किसी बात पे रोना आया.

My Own Poetry

I am giving you another perspective (I delve in Philosophy a great deal):

JAHAN TO MUKAMMAL HI HAI

दुनिया में जब खामियां नज़र आती हैं,
सोचते हैं रब्ब ने मुकम्मल जहान क्यूं नहीं बनाया?
खुद तो खुदा तकमील की मूरत हैं,
फिर चीज़ों और लोगों में खोट क्यूं भरवाया?

और तो और सब कुछ उनकी तखलीक में फानी है,
सबको दाइम भी तो बना सकते थे।
सब कुछ चंद रोज़ के लिए जैसे बहता पानी है,
मुस्तकिल बनाने से खुदा क्यूं डरते थे?

सबसे पहले तो एक बात की सबको पहचान है,
खुदा की कायनात तो करोड़ों सालों से यहीं है।
सिर्फ इसलिए के हम सब चंद रोज़ के मेहमान हैं,
क्यूं हम कहते हैं खुदा की खुदाई मुस्तकिल नहीं है?

जो कुछ दिखता है हमें फ़ानी खुदा की खुदाई में,
वो सिर्फ एक सूरत से दूसरी बदलता है,
जैसे सूरज या चांद दिखता है अंगड़ाई में,
यूं कि कभी ढलता है और कभी निकलता है।

जब हमें हर शय के दाइम होने का हो एहसास,
फ़िर हमें पहचान होती है खुदा की खुदाई की।
सब सराब है जो है हमारी इद्राक के पास,
मन की आंखें खोल के समझ आती है सच्चाई की।

It’d take a little time to sink in!

The Song

Yes, it was sung by Bhupinder Singh in the 1981 movie Ahista Ahista. However, I am giving you the Asha Bhosle version.

Please enjoy: Kabhi kisi ko mukammal jahan nahin milta…

I hope you liked Song #4 in this series.

Please await Song #5: Chandni raaten pyar ki baaten kho gayin jaane kahan.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
