Every tune has a song.

Most often we love a song because we like it's main tune. Couple it with good lyrics and the song becomes great. However there are many songs where the interludes are extremely good. One such song is PEHLA NASHA PEHLA KHUMAAR from the film JO JEETA WOHI SIKANDAR. The piano pieces played in that song will stay in memory forever.

Today I thought of filling out those tunes with words. The song begins with the words CHAAHE TUM KUCH NA KAHO. The first stanza beautifully rendered by Sadhana Sargam ends with the words CHUN LIYA, SUN LIYA. Then, the piano starts. The following four lines can fit that instrumental.

All the way... warriors will go... all the way
with courage that won't fade away...
They know that after night there's day...
Masters at keeping all the foes at bay!

After this interlude, Udit Narayan starts, with UDTA HI FIROON. After his stanza is over, there is another piano piece. I have tried to fit the following words to that.

Moving like the wind, they blow the opposition down.
And having just the target in their sights, they see only the victor's crown...
like a being on a mission, they move on, really strong, their hopes never gone... 
they keep just moving on and on... on... on.

You will have to listen to the song very carefully, before you read this. Meanwhile I know, I need more practice with lyric writing! :-D
