[www.keralites.net] LOVE

 

DEAR ALL,

Being possibly the most trivial question of all time, this is one hard question to ask.

Love is not a bond, or a relationship, but more of a heart to heart conversation. When the conversation grows, the bond and relationship forms. Therefore, love creates the bond and relationship.

Still, that leaves us with the main question, what is love?

Love is no ordinary thing. It is not voluntary, but when it begins, you will know.

 

Hindi writer Kavi Pradeep once said "Love is just a part of life and the love written about today talks about love between the sexes only. But do young men and women have a monopoly where love is concerned. Aren't there different kinds of love that between a mother and her children, between a father and his children, between a bhakt (devotee) and his deity, between a man and his motherland? I chose to write about all these different kinds of love."

There are three types of love. Infatuation, love of family, and love of your spouse.

Infatuation, most commonly known as "Puppy Love", is basically love at first sight. Infatuation can be the beginning of a future spouse love. Though most often infatuation doesn't amount to much.

 

Love of family is loving your mother and father, and any siblings you may have. You want to protect them, watch over them, and fill their lives with an unbounding joy. The parents have an innermost feeling for their children, which in my case, they express everyday.

Love of your spouse means loving someone you are married to. Whether husband or wife, you support your spouse with a deep modesty, and you treat them with great respect.

Okay, so I told you the three types of love. But I still haven't told you what love is. I told you a definition, a heart to heart conversation, but does that tell you much? No. So, I will put it straight

Love means to care, to protect, to watch over, to pray for, to make sure the loved person is happy. But to tell you the truth, those are all parts of love. Not love itself.

So, I will tell you what I think of love. Love has a meaning, but we will never know. Many philosophers have tried, but all their attempts have failed. Every single one of them!

Love is actually never the same thing.

Your destiny, your future path, what you choose to do, that all determines what love is. Love is never the same, you make up the meaning of love by how you choose to use it.

Let me pick best song of love from an old hindi movie Khamoshi which was sung by Singer: Lata Mangeshkar, penned up by Lyricist Gulzar, Music Director: Hemant Kumar ever green favourite song of mine Humne dekhi hai un aankhon ki mahakti khusboo.Beautiful poetry and soothing lyrics go beyond the scope of an average listener It requires sharpened intellect to appreciate the true sentimental values that are associated with this song.

Humne dekhi hai in aankhon ki mehkati khushbu
I have seen the perfumed scent of these eyes
Hath say choo kay isay rishton ka ilzaam na do
No need to touch and solemnize this into worldly relations
sirf ehsaas hai ye, rooh se mehsoos karo
Its only feelings do feel them from the depth of your soul

Pyaar ko pyaar hi rehne do, koi naam na do
Let love remain love, do not give it a name

1^st Stanza:-

 

pyaar koi bol nahi, pyaar awaaz nahi
Love is not a voice, love is not a sound
ek khamoshi hai, sunti hai kaha karti hai
It is a silence that listens and speaks (silently)
na ye bujhti hai na rukti hai, na thehri hai kahin
It can not be extinguished, stopped nor stayed
noor ki boond hai, sadiyon se baha karti hai
Just a drop of celestial light flowing from eternity
sirf ehsaas hai yerooh se mehsoos karo
Its only feelings do feel them from the depth of your soul

Pyaar ko pyaar hi rehne do, koi naam na do
Let love remain love, do not give it a name

2^ND STANZA:-

Muskuraahat si khili rehti hai, aankhon mein kahin
when those eyes are lit up with smile
aur palkon pe ujale se, jhuke rehte hain
And my eyelashes are shaded by brilliance
Honth kuchh kehte nahi, kaanpte honthon pe magar
Lips say nothing, but on (my) quivering lips
kitne khaamosh se afsaane, ruke rehte hain
Untold numbers of epics take residence
sirf ehsaas hai ye rooh se mehsoos karo
Its only feelings do feel them from the depth of your soul

Pyaar ko pyaar hi rehne do, koi naam na do
Let love remain love, do not give it a name

 

Lovely song, beautiful music and the lyrics are fantastic. Forget the music, the singer, the film – just read the lyrics like a poem and try to understand it.

It is poetry at its best. Gulzar has written a great poem about that most important emotion of all – LOVE. Not only love between man and woman, person and person just the feeling of love which can touch us all.
