Day 19: What a riddle life is, Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli, by Manna Dey - Anand (1971)

It is day 19, and today's song, Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli, is an evergreen, heart touching song from one of the top and memorable Bollywood movies of 1971, Anand, directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. 

Oh! what a riddle life is, sometimes it makes us smile, sometimes it makes us cry! Golden super song of all times, sung by none other than the great superlatively amazing singer with a golden voice and superb singing skills, Manna Dey. Lyrics by Yogesh are deep and brimmed with basic yet profound lessons of life. Music composed by Salil Chaudhury.
The movie was pictured with Rajesh Khanna playing the character of a man at the door step of his death. He knows he is terminal, yet he is a cheerful and a joyous man who brings love and goodwill to everyone, wherever he goes. He spreads Anand, bliss!

I guess I shall watch this movie tonight....

Lyrics:
Zindagi kaisi hai paheli haye
Kabhi to hansaye, kabhi ye rulaaye
Zindagi kaisi hai paheli haye
Kabhi to hansaye, kabhi ye rulaaye

Kabhi dekho man nahi jaage
Peechhe peechhe sapnon ke bhaage
Hey kabhi dekho man nahi jaage
Peechhe peechhe sapnon ke bhaage
Ik din sapnon ka raahi
Chala jaaye sapnon ke aage kahan

Zindagi kaisi hai paheli haye
Kabhi to hansaye, kabhi ye rulaaye

Jinhone sajaaye yahan mele
Sukh-dukh sang-sang jhele
Hey ae jinhone sajaaye yahan mele
Sukh-dukh sang-sang jhel
Wohi chunkar khamoshi
Yoon chale jaaye akele kahan

Zindagi kaisi hai paheli haye
Kabhi to hansaye, kabhi ye rulaaye


Thank you for listening
Peace
