क्याप: Songs I love to love

When love is in the air, how can music be far behind. So here, is my choice of bitter-sweet romantic melodies. There are indeed many more besides the ones posted here, but these are what come to my mind right now.
Listed in no order.. yet my any list of favorite songs can begin with only and only this one..
----

If there is anything called love in this world, it is this one line. Precisely, just this.
बावरे से इस जहां में बावरा कोई साथ हो,
इस सयानी भीड़ में बस हाथों में तेरा हाथ हो...

----

He looked magical in each one of his black & white avatars. From nonchalance to romance - he'd sweep women off their feet and the teenage me was no exception to that. It was only when he crooned this, I was bowled over.. for ever, that is. I love the lyrics and how!

कई ख्वाब देख डाले, मेरे दिल की बेखुदी ने.. कहीं बेखयाल होकर..

----

She was beautiful, innocent and mischevious. He was grim, confused and curious. A strange chance encounter in the wilderness of the night. How beautiful, candid and surprising can a first meeting be!
I have no idea why we got talking but perhaps it was meant to be...
जाने क्या तूने कही, जाने क्या मैंने सुनी.. बात कुछ बन ही गयी...

----

Would love be love, if it wasn't for longing... The pride, sarcasm and sadness of losing what he probably never had..

किसको फ़ुरसत है जो थामे दीवानों का हाथ.. हमको अपना साया तक अक्सर बेज़ार मिला..

----

Ridiculous comparison may be, but if there's any feeling that comes close to 'Want to sleep for 5 more minutes', it is this 'Wait, stay with me a little more'.. Sing it and even a person like yours truly might stay forever..!
अभी तो कुछ कहा नहीं, अभी तो कुछ सुना नहीं..

----

Promises such as these.. No, don't say 'Waada' and 'Iraada' .. just say it as honestly as this one.

जहाँ भी अब जाए राही हम संग हैं...

----

Waiting for you, patiently..

मुख़्तसर सी बात है, तुमसे प्यार है...

----

Loving strangers! If it weren't for how this song puts it, I would never agree probabaly..
महफ़िल में कैसे कह दें किसी से, दिल बंध रहा है एक अजनबी से..

----

I still cannot understand how and why did women go crazy over this star. Nevertheless, here is a song I love despite being one of those dripping with love, sugary-songs... May be the heart desires "chain" so much..
चैन आये मेरे दिल को दुआ कीजिये..

----

Perhaps, one of those that are closest to my hear... Gulzaar Saab, at times I think, you've given words to everything we can possibly emote..

प्यार को प्यार ही रहने दो, इसे रिश्तों का इल्ज़ाम ना दो...

----

And with love, perhaps, every moment next to this one is 'who knows..'
लग जा गले के फिर ये हसीं रात हो ना हो..

----

One of the songs, I got introduced to much later in life and got totally smitten by. Romantic-fiction at its best!
The song alone is a beautiful story that'd put all The-Notebook-s of the world to shame and may be teach a lesson or two in romance!
मैंने साडी में उरस ली हैं, चाबियां तेरे घर की .. :)

----

My most favorite hindi romantic film 'Socha Na Tha'.

Confusions and confessions of our times are such....

तुम मेरी कोई नहीं, मैं जानता हूँ मगर...

----

Long before 'Tum se hi' happened, Mohit Chauhan had already crooned his way to my list of 'play-nonstop' songs with this...
वो जो हमसे कह ना सके, दिल ने कह दिया..
