my little paradise...

I listened to a song today.Nothing new there as i subject myself to those innumerable ones almost everyday hoping to feel atleast half as great as the person i think i am.It's a song you will know when you hear it, it will speak right to the blood pooling at the base of your heart, the blood that leaves you craving and yearning..Its not a song that is just listened, but is
lived through.The song that would secretly make me breathe fire and break into tears at the same time.

I got hold of Dil hum hum from rudali while i was just making my regular visits to those shared folders! I have heard the song long back and i always mention it as one of my favourite songs. but today..I listened to the song between three powercuts, two long phone calls and few interrupted trips to meetings and of course work! I have never spent more than the
required 4 minutes of my time over this song. I realised how less i knew then.Will i cry even when i listen to this song at 30.. It makes me secretly weep and dream! Perhaps i had forgotten how realy wonderful wonderful can it be to listen to a song.

Here's to rudali- the professional mourners who cannot cry at the death of their own soul!whose struggle for survival in this unfair world baffles me. Here's to those who dont know the price they have paid for the gift of this beautiful song to us.
