Update: - First posted on 6th July, 2010. Pulling it up, on relevance. Have always loved this song and now that this song defines the stage I am at, it's more meaningful than ever. It's like someone gave words to the pain inside. Singing this song soothes me a little bit, while a silent lonely tear drop finds its way from corner of the eye to the tip of chin.
When you are talking about the music of a Dharma production movie, you can be rest assured that it is going to be great. The first song that started airing for the latest movie from their stable - “I hate LUV storys”, starring Imran Khan and Sonam Kapoor – ‘Jab mila tu’ was instant hit. And then ‘Bin Tere’ was shown. This is indeed a good song. But you ain’t heard nothing if you haven’t heard the Reprise version of the same. Shekhar Ravijiani sung it superbly and not once do you feel any disconnect. And the only instrument used in this whole song is an acoustic guitar. Last song where just an acoustic guitar created such a magic was ‘Dard-e-Tanhai’ of Jashnn.
I listened to this song on my laptop on repeat mode for an hour or so yesterday. And then transferred it to my cell and listened to it while I drifted into sleep. It’s just a magical number. Wanna give a big hug to every one associated with the making of this piece. @kjohar25, @1mrankhan, @sonamakapoor.. and the whole team. A big Thumbs Up to you all.
Now, just listen to the song. Lyrics follows -
Teri nigahon ke, teri hi raahon ke
kareeb se gayi zindagi.
Tujhe kyun dekha na?
Tujhe kyun jaana na?
Shikayatein karun ya nahin?
Thami hai yeh saansein,
bhari hai yeh aankhein.
Sahu kaise ab yeh faasla...
Bin tere, bin tere, bin tere
Koi khalish hai hawaon mein bin tere.
Bin tere, bin tere, bin tere
Koi khalish hai hawaon mein bin tere.
Kuch bacha hi nahin darmiyaan,
Saans leti hain ab yeh dooriyan.
Dil nahin jaanta raahon mein
Haath se haath choote thei kahan.
Kyun nazar ke kinare,
tootey hain khwab saare, tu bataa.
Suna suna samaa hai,
khaali khaali jahan hai, ab mera.
Bin tere, bin tere, bin tere
Koi khalish hai hawaon mein bin tere.
O Bin tere, bin tere, bin tere
Koi khalish hai hawaon mein bin tere.Lyrics in Hindi font -
तेरी निगाहों के, तेरी ही राहों के
करीब से गयी ज़िन्दगी.
तुझे क्यूँ देखा ना?
तुझे क्यूँ जाना ना?
शिकायतें करू या नहीं?
थमी है ये सांसें,
भरी है ये आँखें.
सहु कैसे अब ये फासला...
बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे
कोई खलिश है हवाओं मे बिन तेरे.
बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे
कोई खलिश है हवाओं मे बिन तेरे.
कुछ बचा ही नहीं दर्मियाँ,
सांस लेती है अब ये दूरियां.
दिल नहीं जानता राहो मे
हाथ से हाथ छूटे थे कहाँ.
क्यूँ नज़र के किनारे,
टूटे हैं ख्वाब सारे, तू बता.
सुना सुना समा है,
खाली खाली जहाँ है, अब मेरा.
बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे
कोई खलिश है हवाओं मे बिन तेरे.
ओ बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे, बिन तेरे
कोई खलिश है हवाओं मे बिन तेरे.English translation -
My life passed right in front of your eyes, your ways.
Why didn't I see you?
Why didn't I know you?
Should I complain or not?
I am running breathless,
my eyes are flooding.
How am I supposed to bear this distance...
Without u, without u, without u...
There's a sadness in the air without you.
Without u, without u, without u...
There's a sadness in the air without you.
There's nothing left between us,
The rift in between is growing.
The heart doesn't know
where did we let go of each other's hands.
Why all my dreams are shattered
right in my eyes, you tell me.
There's only a vacuum left,
My whole world is now empty.
Without u, without u, without u...
There's a sadness in the air without you.
Without u, without u, without u...
There's a sadness in the air without you.
