ANISHA VENKATASUBRAMANIAN

It's a bright Sunday morning. I woke up around 4am. Now, y'all must be wondering who on earth wakes up so early on a Sunday? And I was never a morning person. Yes, I do wake up. I love doing my riyaz and studies early in the morning. I've started waking up early since the first year of MBBS. It's really peaceful during that time and mind is fresh. I washed my face, brushed my teeth and made myself some nice hot cocoa and then I took my guitar and started singing this latest song Tanhai by Tulsi Kumar in which my favourite Zain Imam is also there. Zainu , Oh man he's just so good. Singing gives me eternal peace and solace it's a wonderful stress buster.

Sunday is no classical song day. Sunday is Bollywood day.

This surely is a sad song but I really liked it. Don't judge me. I sometimes feel sad songs are more meaningful and relatable as compared to other kind of songs. And Tanhai is kinda relatable to me. I can relate with Tulsi Kumar's feelings in this.

(A/N: I've put the song above you can check it out if you want)

I began singing....

Toota hai bahot yeh dil mera
Aashu hai badi tanhaai hai
Jab se teri baahon mein humein
Aane ki hui manaahi hai

Kuch yaadein jo teri baaki hai
Jo dil ko bohat satati hai
Kate se nahi katata lamha
Kyun dedi tanhai
Kuch baatein jo teri baaki hai
Jo humko bahot rulati hai
Jeene ko nahi ab dil karta
Kyun dedi tanhaai

Woh hath jo kal tak hath mein tha
Ab chhune se katrata hai
Har lamha kal tak sath mein tha
Ab milne tak nahi aata hai
Yeh soch ke neend na aati hai
Aur dil mein ek udasi hai
Kyun tune kiya humko tanha
Kyun dedi yeh judaai
Hothon pe hasi na aati hai
Aankhein bhi nam ho jaati hai
Acha hi nahi lagta jeena
Kyun dedi ye judaai
Is ishq mein tere hathon se
Yahi cheez humhe mil payi hai
Kyun dedi tune judaai hai
Kyun dedi tanhaai

Tanhaai hai humsafar
Tanhaai hai har dagar
Tanhaai hai har pehar
Tanhaai saamon shehar
Tanhaai hai har taraf
Tanhaai hai had e nazar
Tanhaai hai arsh tak
Tanhaai hai ab farsh tak
Mere hisse mein hisse mein
Gham hi aaye hai
Tere hisse mein hisse mein khushiyan
Meri ankhon mein ankhon mein
Ashq aaye hai
Tere hothon pe hothon pe hassna

Toota hai bahot yeh dil mera
Aashu hai badi tanhaai hai
Jab se teri baahon mein humein
Aane ki hui manaahi hai

Waqt sheekha deta hai
Ishq mein tanhaai ko sehna
Par zindagi mein kisi ko bhi rab
Tanhaiyan na dena

I finished singing. Wow it was fun! It was as if I literally poured my heart out through the lyrics. This so damn true I loved the line actually the quote.

I said it slowly, "Waqt seekha deta hai ishq mein tanhai ko sehna par zindagi mein kisi ko bhi rab tanhaiyan na dena."
