King is King.
Well, Dil Gira Dafatan proves that only. While AR Rahman gets his due credit for this beautiful composition, the British-born Singer Ash King is the one who deserves probably more for adding life to Rahman's composition with his beautiful voice as he sings Dil Gira Kahin Par Dafatan.
Ash King has sung Dil Gira Dafatan really wonderfully. So much so that right from the start of the song, when Ash starts crooning Dil mera, dil mera.. one starts wondering who is the singer.
What all Rahman has used for the music, I can't tell. There is so, so much. All I can say about the genre is that it's a 'Different' song. The song is a slow number, a rendition by a youthful voice who is singing completely from the heart.
The singer seems to be sitting near some sea, on a rock, and the song reminds me somewhat of Dooba-dooba, not because of the song but the instruments, though the sounds of wind in the background are quite desert-like.
Another question which is there on my mind is about the video of the song. The voice of Ash King, our heroic singer is so much heartfelt that I'm thinking how they can let Abhishek perform the hero with that. My say is that if he does it, and does it properly, it'll be a big deal.
Chinmayee, an all time favorite of Rahman, is the supporting voice and she does her job pretty well. And not to forget, Prasoon Joshi does a real good job again. Ghazalon ki sohbat mein geet bhi behek rahe hain... Excellent!
But still, at the end, it's Ash King who is the King of the song. Or in my words, King is King.
Lyrics:
Dil mera Dil mera
Dil Meraaa
Dil Meraaa......
aaa......
Dil Mera Dil Mera
o..o...ou.... aee...
Dil, Gira kahin par.. daffatan
Dil, Gira kahin par.. daffatan
Jaane.. Magar Yeh nayan
Teri Khamosh zulfon ki.. gehraiyaan
Hai jahan dil meraa uljha hua hai wahin kho gaya
Tu magar hai bekhabar, hai bekhabar
Dil, Gira Kahin par daffatan
Kyon goonj rahi hai dhadkan...
Jaane magar ye nayan
Seepiyon, ke honth se moti chhalak rahe hain
Ghazlon ki sohbat mein geet bhi behek rahe hain
Samandar lehron ki lehron ki chaadar odh ke so raha hai
Par mein jaagoon ek khumari ek nasha sa, ek nasha sa ho raha hai
Tu magar, hai bekhabar.. hai bekhabar..
Dil, Gira Kahin par daffatan
Kyon goonj rahi hai dhadkan...
Jaane magar ye nayan
Khushbuon mein lipte mausam...
Teri Khamosh zulfon ki gehraiyaan
Hai jahan dil meraa...
Uljha hua hai wahin kho gaya
Tu magar, hai bekhabar.. hai bekhabar..
Dil! Gira Kahin par daffatan!
