Har Ghadi Hai Juda

I know I didn’t upload a new post last Friday after saying I would be consistent the last time I had missed the posting. Well, this time it was a deliberate attempt. I will explain why. For some time I was feeling I wasn’t producing any new material and was just focusing on finishing up songs that I had composed a couple years ago. Every Friday the blog was turning into real work and
I was constantly keeping myself under pressure in order to deliver to my best ability. Honestly, it doesn’t quite work that way with creativity. Creativity needs to be spontaneous. There definitely needs to be a mood, some different kind of setting and most importantly a fresh mind.

I still don’t know how creative professionals pursue their interests as a job. I would be seriously struggling if I was told I had to compose 10 songs within a certain period of time where each song is based on a situation and that they should match the Production companies signature tastes, e.g YashRaj Films. No matter which music composer they choose when you listen to their songs you can tell it’s a song from a YashRaj movie.

Anyway, bottom line is that your hobby cannot be a full-time job when pursued as a hobby. And the best outcome of creativity is actually when it is pursued as a hobby and not a job. Otherwise it turns into a mundane activity. I managed to compose four to five new songs last week which I will complete and upload eventually.

For now here’s one song I am particularly proud of because of the nice mellow but sad mood that it sets. So close your eyes and enjoy it.

Here are the lyrics. 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]
Har Ghadi Hai Juda, Apne do dil yahan
Raasta ek hai, Manzilein aur hai

Aeh khuda tu bata, tujhko hai kya pata
Dil mein jab pyar hai, to kaisi takrar hai

Mitade sabhi fasle, dilon ko tu de hausle .. eh

Har Ghadi Hai Juda, Apne do dil yahan
Raasta ek hai, Manzilein aur hai

[1st antra]
Lambi Lambi Tanha Raatein, Katti hi nahin
Suni Suni si barsaatein, Katti hi nahin

Har jagah mil rahi, Humko mayusiyan
Jane kaise bani, Dil mein ruswaiyan

Aeh Khuda tu bata, tujhko hai kya pata
Chal rahe saath par, Bhigdi hai baat har
Milade tu dekar dua, Banade hume ek jaan

[Repeat Mukhda]
