Drishtikone
Hum tere pyar mein from “Dil ek Mandir” sung by Lata (music by Shankar Jaikishen and lyrics by Shailendra)
This song is in Raag “Desh” – so it has a special attraction. Narcissism apart, this song symbolized for me the ultimate love for a long time. Although it has been expressed by a lady, but it could have been a man as well. The sentiments in poetry and the peerless voice of Lata (this period – early 1960’s – saw her come up with the most romantic and peerless rendering of songs ever!), makes it a song that simply pries open your heart! One of my favorite Lata songs!
Enjoy the song below if you are reading this after Jan 24, 2007; otherwise play it on the left hand sidebar…
