Cover of Khakee

Teri Baahon mein hum is beautiful romantic song from the movie Khakee. Unfortunately for it there was another romantic song in the same movie and that song (Waada Raha) was the most popular of the soundtrack. Even I missed this slow intimate song until a friend made me listen to it and after that I was hooked. This is one of those few songs that I am certain I would never have found on my own, and coz of that I like it even more.

The beauty of this song is that it talks about falling in love. It talks about the restlessness and madness that is a part of the process and is extremely imaginative at it.

This is one of the few duets that made it to my list and for good reason too. I feel duets at times takes away from the raw feel of the emotion being expressed. I guess its got something to do with meeting the other person’s emotion half way.

Teri baahon mein hum jeete marte rahe
Yunhi hum tumse pyaar karte rahe
Humne dekhi nahin aisi deewaangi
Kam na hogi kabhi ab to dil ki lagi
Jism se rooh mein hum utarte rahe
Yunhi hum tumse pyaar karte rahe

In your embrace I found life and death
And just like that I kept falling in love with you
I have never seen anyone so lovestruck
Unending is the desire of the heart
From the body to the soul, I kept transcending
And just like that I kept falling in love with you

Aaj karo tum humse bas chaahat ki baatein
Kaatne se kat ti nahin ab to tanha raatein

Today lets talk only about love
These lonely nights are hard to get through

Khwaab banaake tumko aankhon mein rakh lenge
Beqaraariyaan keh rahi hai hum chain tumko denge

I will keep you in my eyes like my dreams
My moments of turmoil say I will give you solace

Aake aaghosh mein hum sanvarte rahe
Jism se rooh mein hum utarte rahe

In your arms I find comfort
And just like that I kept falling in love with you

Yun agar dekhoge deewaana kar doge
Ishq mein hamein yaar tum to mastaana kar doge

If you look at me that way, you will drive me crazy
my friend, in your love I will become mad

Baat meri tum maano, deewaanapan chhodo
Na karo hamein beqaraar kasmon ko na todo

Listen to me, Stop this madness
Dont fuel my desires, lets not break our promises

Khushbuon ki tarha hum bikharte rahe
Jism se rooh mein hum utarte rahe
Teri baahon mein hum jeete marte rahe
Yunhi hum tumse pyaar karte rahe

Like a fragrance, I kept dissolving
From the body to the soul, I kept transcending
In your embrace I found life and death
And just like that I kept falling in love with you
