Halke Halke

It’s amazing, how a song evolves from just the first few lines. I was humming the tune of this particular song for quite some time. I had the melody for the Mukhda. But for the lyrics, I constantly stopped at Halke Halke. Just couldn’t move forward. Wasn’t really sure what the lyrics should be from that point on. And whatever I came up with, didn’t have a rhyming second line. For example- Halke Halke baarish ki bunde, Halke Halke hawa ke zokein, Halke Halke jaam yeh chalkein, etc. Tried several combinations.

Until this past weekend when I managed to finish the first two lines - Halke Halke, Yeh Kadam Badhe, Jaise Tumse, Yeh Nayan Lade.

And that pretty much dictated the entire song. The first two lines express that a person is shy from moving forward whenever they see this special person. Later, few more lines also dictated that this should be a female song.

So, enjoy it and see ya next Friday.

Here are the lyrics and you can play the song from the Player at the very end of the lyrics or from the Playlist on the right hand side –

[Mukhda]
Halke Halke, Yeh Kadam Badhe
Jaise Tumse, Yeh Nayan Lade

Dil mein zazbaton ki, Kashmakash ho rahi
Kya kahun kehneko, baat kuch bhi to nahi

Halke Halke, Yeh Kadam Badhe
Jaise Tumse, Yeh Nayan Lade

[1st Antra]
Roj subah aakhen kholu, tumhein milu
Raaton ko aakhen mitu to, tumhein milu
Jane kya hua asar hai, dil pe mere, kya kahun ...
Waqt jaise tham gaya hai, aaj phirse, najane kyun ..

Sasein meri, kyun bhala ruki
Aye tum samne, to palkein bhi zuki

Dil mein zazbaton ki, Kashmakash ho rahi
Kya kahun kehneko, baat kuch bhi to nahi

Halke Halke, Yeh Kadam Badhe
Jaise Tumse, Yeh Nayan Lade

[2nd antra]
Mile jab kabhi bhi hum,to bhool jaoon sare gum
par jane kyun dobara milnese, darta hai mera man

Hai khwahish saath chalne ki, kaise kahun
Bina kahe yeh umrabhar, kaise rahun

Ulzi ulzi, Lage har ghadi
Kaise jodun, Dilki har kadi

Dil mein zazbaton ki, Kashmakash ho rahi
Kya kahun kehneko, baat kuch bhi to nahi

Halke Halke, Yeh Kadam Badhe
Jaise Tumse, Yeh Nayan Lade

[Repeat Mukhda]
