You turn with fragile grace
To gaze in aching loneliness
At someone else’s face”

LYRICS
Main wahin tha kahin
Jab tere yeh nayan
Barse thhe jaise tufani raat ho
Main wahin tha kahin
Jab tera rom-rom
Tarsa tha har pal kisi ke saath ko
Jab dhundti thi tu
Woh khoye kafile
Main wahin tha kahin
Par tuney dekha hi nahin
Sulagti yadon ko sirhane lekar
Akeli raton ke fasane lekar
Khoyi hui thi jis duniya mein tu
Main wahin tha kahin
Khuli baahein lekar
Mehakti sanson ko
Jab neend aane lage
Saya bhi tera tujhse nazarein churane lage
Din dhalne ko ho
Ghata chhane lage
Duur kahin koi banjara yeh geet gane lage
Is janam mein nahin
To phir kabhi hi sahi
Is jahan mein nahin to
Us jahan mein kahin
Ab tak chhupayi saari aahein lekar
Sadiyon se nam yeh nigahein lekar
Kho jayegi jis duniya mein tu
Main milunga wahin
Khuli baahein lekar

Great song …. are you guys compiling an album of your music ?
Ronak R. said
Wonderful! Indeed.
LOVE the Lyrics.
LOVE the lead vocals.
LOVE the deep bass and guitar that supports the theme.
I feel break beats would be kewl with such mood.
It can be a great rock song too, if you can arrange to have some heavy guitars introduced in later parts, but that may require change in lyrics.
Very touching. I’d LOVE to listen to a high bit-rate version.

Nitin,
Like this song very much !! Far far better than a lot of what bollywood has been churning out these days. Are these home recordings or studio?

udta dhuaan
tere bina – the sadness
mai waheen tha

Amazing rendition Nitin…….very touching lyrics too……liked the guitar and arrangement too. I am trying hard but I hope I can sing like you someday……

Rahul Soman said
Nitin,
I feel that the BGM was awesome was brilliant. But I felt there was an uncertainty about the feel in the initial parts of the song. But the singer managed to catch hold and end up rendering it well towards the middle and end. Soothing even though the start was a bit disappointing a 5/5 for the brilliant effort overall :-D
Regards,
Rahul

Nitin, I like the arrangement and singing…May be a good interlude was missing somewhere in between… but that’s just my perspective. Overall 5/5 from me…
Harshan Nambiar
said
Nitin ….sorry very late on this post, have heard some of your earlier work. Lovely strumming of the guitar, Nitin you are a great composer. I saw your scribble about not understanding written notations. There are software available which will translate the tune to notations. After all composition is a very creative work, if you are good at that ….the rest is all piece of cake. Beautiful vocals from the singer too….liked his tone very much.
As I said long ago, you dont belong here….you should be in Bollywood long ago.
5/5 and to my favourites.

Thanks Ajay and Shonnie – gives me great pleasure to share with you that ‘Baahein’ has been featured as part of the soundtrack of an Indo-Austrlian movie called ‘Another Day in Paradise’ releasing on Feb 5th, 2010 in Australia. (It is an independent film, so details might not be easily available online at this stage). Thanks everyone for your continual encouragement and feedback always. Cheers.
