Sharing a song that is one of the lesser-known songs of the well-known Indian pop band, "A Band of Boys" of the 90s era...This particular song is not just a regular song, but a sublime deep poetry that revokes the fragrance of the ocean, its breeze, and the scent of longing and finally the meeting of the Beloved....
The song can be heard at this link: Elements (Aayi Ho Jabse)
The lyrics are as follows:
(Note the paragraph of lyrics in red are especially too close to my heart...such a depth of words...)
"Guzre the kitne saawan baadalon ki taak main,
Sookhi padi thi shaakhein berehem dhoop main,
Teri ankhon se jo chalka boondon ka Silsila
Chhota sa gul hai khila
Aayi ho jabse tum,
Dil ko mere kya hua
Banjar zameen par jaise
Chhota sa gul khila
Reton main dabi hui
Nadiyon ki cheekh ko
Sangam se bichdi trishna
Tarsi jo preet ko,
Saagar ki shokhiyon se
Shankhon ka sur mila
Chhota sa gul khila
Jeene ki justajoo
Saawan ki bheeni Khushboo
Sardi ki dhoop ho
Banjar zameen par mere
Chhota sa gul khila..."
