Sahir and his love for the country knows no bounds. He will always be remmebered for writing works like this.
With the same intensity and his love for the nation and his vision for equality amongst all differentiating factors, he wrote "Tu Hindu Baenga Na Musalman Banega". I love to think that he is talking to a newborn and telling baout the demarcations of religion, whilst mentioning that there is a beacon of hope and pride that belongs to this country which has to be taken ahead by the future generation.
Sahir, you beauty 💛
The background music is "Vande Mataram (Revival) by A R Rahman. In entirety or whole, I own no part of the song or the poem. All I own, is the sky 💛

Immortal. This is what defines this Nazm. Always has and always will. If you listen closely to this nazm, it will define the relationship of time with the universe. How meager we human beings are and how tiny we can be in the vast spectacle of this universe.
Listen closely, for the universe is always listening.

There was someone before Amrita. Sahir's world was not always grey, it had a love that was reciprocated but then something else came in between them. Yaksui was written for her.

Notes and anecdotes for this episode are inspired by Akshay Manwani who wrote the book, "Sahir Ludhianvi: The Peoples Poet". Which he undoubtedly, was, is and always will be.

The notes and anecdots, the music, the poems, I own nothing about them, in pieces or entirety. All I own, is the sky.

Somethings should never be repeated again. For example, Umeed ka khat.
That was an original masterpiece by itself and still remains so. To be honest, I do not think so that I will ever be able to top that one up. But then my midnight musings brought me over here.

To note, this is a "nazm" written when a lover moves on, when the relation is dead, when there is supposed to be no contact, when the shayar becomes a human.

Been a while to this!
Sahir sah'b decided to make a comeback, but this time, not in my dreams. I got some new recording gear and I was utterly scared to use them. Maybe, I was scared to make mistakes.
Sahir sah'b casually helped me record this, making sure I know my mistakes on the way as I recorded this. This is to him!
Barely any sound (Read: Noise) was removed from the podcast. I am still getting used to the mic and the interface and it shall be fun! Let's see how and where do I reach from here!
Till then
yours forever,
Farhid :)
