Kabhi Kabhi Mere dil mein khayal aata hai


If you are familiar with Indian music then you know this song. This blog entry is my homage to this incomparable love song. Such beautiful poetry and the melody made unforgettable by Mukesh, Lata and of course the one and only Amitabh Bachan.


This link will take you to the song as sung in the movie “Kabhi Kabhi” : Kabhi Kabhi original Male version .


Here is the Kabhi Kabhi original Female version of the song again from the movie .


A link for a portion of the Kabhi Kabhi poem recited by Amitabh .


For those of you who want to explore the origins of this beautiful song here is the poem in Urdu as written by Sahir Ludhiyanvi .


If you are brave enough to stray from the original masterpiece and want to see a Remix here is one to enjoy. Thankfully it still has Amitabh Bachan's charm to pull it off.


If you have any link to better or different versions please share so we can all enjoy it.


For those of you who don't speak Hindi and hence don't really get the song, I am sorry there is no decent available translation for it on the web, trust me I have looked. Just suffice to say IMHO its one of the best love songs out there telling of a love story that could not be.
