#MusicDay 26: a sad song
उफ़ न करेंगे लब सी लेंगे
आँसू पी लेंगे
ग़म से अब घबराना कैसा, ग़म सौ बार मिला
(3:20—3:41)I love this #Hindi #film SO MUCH, it is my favourite film, period.
The poetry is sublime, but finding it with English subs online is hard, so here's the song ripped from my backup copy of the DVD. Hooray for Mastodon's superior video posting limits, bsky got only a YT link 😁

The utterly sickening #KDrama scandal that's blowing up put me in mind of a long-time favourite song from #Pyaasa. This song was banned from radio play for decades in India for its scathing indictment of exactly the sort of moral hypocrisy the tragic and ugly current #KEnt scandal highlights. Unfortunately, uploaders of #HindiCinema songs seem to think "English" means "Roman script", so I couldn't find actual English subs

#DesiOSTs I love
There is only one song that I could possibly end with.
My favourite song from my favourite film,, from anywhere and anywhen.The only film I own a copy of the dialogues of – a beautiful physical book with the dialogue in two(3?) languages and four scripts.
A line from this song is in my profile, & the last verse sums up my view of the world perfectly, which is why its opening lines are on a t-shirt I had printed.

For something COMPLETELY different, back to the 1957 #Hindi #Film #Pyaasa - the ANGRIEST song I've heard #MohammadRafi sing - doing full justice to the sublime Sahir Ludhianvi's polemic against hypocritical misogynist moralising in a song that was banned from radio play for decades in India.

2. From the same film, a VERY different song, one I fell in love with before I ever saw the film.
