#Laal Ishq

[thatstolenpayal]

these lyrics>>>

apna naam badal doon

ya tera naam chhupa loon?

ya chhod ke saari aag main

bairaag utha lu?

bas ek rahe mera kaam ishq,

mera kaam ishq, mera kaam ishq

mera naam ishq, tera naam ishq

mera naam, tera naam,

mera naam ishq, yeh laal ishq

laal ishq, ram leela

[omkar12desai]

At the start of this song, you listen to a melancholic flute that represents the loneliness of Ram & Leela

A Melancholic Flute from Laal Ishq

this is how Laal Ishq begins

[Ye Laal Ishq, Ye Malaal Ishq

Ye Aeb Ishq, Ye Bair Ishq]

It will be unfair to just look at this song from the lenses of Ram and Leela

There are multiple dimensions of this song going by the movie and real life

So let us ask ourselves, how is this Laal Ishq?

This is red meaning passionate, intense, willing to give life for the pursuit of love

It is remorseful - it's highs and lows are steep, it makes you really sad sometimes just how Khatana Bhai would say

Pain, Dukh (Sadness), Dard (Pain), Aansu (Tears)

And because it is away from right and wrong, it is a fault

and animosity is also a kind of love, to imagine oneself with that other person in various situation - you haven't forgotten them, you are still in love!

away from leela, ram says something really profound

"dekh raha tha ki khoon ka rang toh laal hai ki saala ye bhi badal gaya"

ram has realised for the first time that the animosity between two communities is bigger than his pursuit of love

He is not allowed to feel what he is feeling & if he cannot do that

then how is he himself?

they changed the name which was the reason of all the troubles, both renames themselves to be called Ishq

[Mera Name Ishq, Tera Name is Ishq]

Now when you listen to these lines again, Arijit is also singing signifying it is Ram's version, what has he got to say?

Ram's laal ishq is also very passionate as we saw in the movie

after falling in love is he realising the animosity and feeling regret about being born where he was. A fault that he found only the woman from across enemies to fall in love

and this love because of which he has become enemy to everyone

[ Mera Naam badaldu, ya tera naam chupalu]

This movie is inspired from the play of Romeo and Juliet and there is line there

" Deny Thy Fathers & Refuse Thy Name"

And the line is exactly the same in essence when it talks about forgetting the person behind the name

[ Ya Chodke Saari Raag Mai Bairag Utha lu ]

In hindu culture, Raag stands as desire, so Bairaag is someone who is without any desire

Ram acknowledges that the world insists him to be away from love but he is willing to leave this world to meet his lover elsewhe

He is assured that his love is beyond this world and he will meet Leela elsewhere if not here

[Bas Ek Rahe Mera Kaam Ishq Ye Naam Ishq Ye kaam Ishq]

here the word 'kaam' (work) is very interesting. Have you heard the idiom - one for the kitchen, one for the soul?

So work is something you do to survive and get acceptance from the world

currently where ram is, his work is to be enemy to the other community

Now he wants to make love is work and because he feels the animosity is so old, it will take the effort of a day job to eradicate it

[Ye Laal Ishq, Ye Malaal Ishq

Ye Aeb Ishq, Ye Bair Ishq]

Now when you hear these lines again for the third time, look at this from the perspective of Society/World

These guys (lovers) fell in the trap of sexual attraction and broke the rules of society

The red signifies anger of society upon looking at lovers breaking rules

There is sadness that they might have to exclude or kill their beloved Ram and leela

And for them it is a flaw which is propelling them to fight all

and what is this love in the name of which you have become enemy to all of us

how contextual and well written are these lyrics that says it all for everyone

Initially there love was all fooling around and fun but eventually Ram get's tired of fighting everyone. Try to feel that in next lines

[ Ye Kaali Raat Jakadlu, Ye Thanda Chaand Pakadlu]

The day is red in sun but during night, it's dark in the moon.

every fight stops during the night whether it is as big as Ramayan or Mahabharata

There is alot of peace in nights and Ram just wants that this peace remains, the night remains!

And to show his desperation, he wants to do something as outrageous as holding the moon!

[ Din Raat Ke Bairi Bhed Ka Rukh Mod Ke Mai Rakh lu ]

There is an angst, there is tiredness in Ram for sure but there is a strong will which he is expressing in these words

Actually if you look at it, both fulfilled their roles as enemies by killing each other

This is like his last bye to Leela.

[ Mera Naam Ishq Tera Naam Ishq Mera Naam Tera Naam Mera Naam Ishq ]

On the night of Ramleela, Ram and Leela became one

Both became symbols of love, both became Laal Ishq

"ये मोहब्बत में निकली हुई फाल है,

इश्क तो लाल है, इश्क तो लाल है,"

[bubbles-floating]

the "laal" at 3:24 in laal ishq (arijit singh) just slaps SO HARD the harmonic change just really makes you feel the release of emotions after the build up of the last lines and it just feels great i wish i could replay that exact part over and over and over

[themarvellouspoetrydream]

i should have known i was a psycho when i went from listening to laal ishq to daddy issues 🎃

[miniuniverse]

One of the best song of the era❤️

[gojoscupcake]

saala Ye ishq Kyu nahi hota be????

#Laal ishq OST

دل کی رَگ رَگ سے ٹپکا ہوا ہے لہو

جا بجا جُو بہ جُو جا بجا جُو بہ جُو

چال دیکھو تو مستی بھری چال ہے

حال دیکھو تو بس ، حال بے حال ہے

عشق تو لال ہے عشق تو لال ہے

کون ہیں لوگ یہ زخم کھائے ہوئے

دل کی میت کو سر پر اٹھائے ہوئے

آرزوئیں کہاں بیچ کر آئے ہیں

آج آئے ہیں پوچھو یہ کیا لائے ہیں

اِک محبت سے یہ نہ سنبھالے گئے

اِک محبت نہ ان سے سنبھالی گئی

زندگی بس امیدوں بھری جیب تھی

جیسے خالی ملی ویسے خالی گئی

کیا مِلا ہے محبت کے بازار سے

آج پھرتے ہو دل کو نقد ہار کے

یہ محبت بھی دشمن کی اِک چال ہے

عشق تو لال ہے عشق تو لال ہے

جب کہا تھا محبت گناہ تو نہیں

پھر گناہ کے برابر سزا کیوں ملی

زخم دیتے ہو کہتے ہو سہتے رہو

جان لے کر کہو گے کہ جیتے رہو

پیار جب جب زمیں پر اُتارا گیا

زندگی تجھ کو صدقے میں وارا گیا

پیار زندہ رہا مقتلوں میں مگر

پیار جس نے کیا ہے وہ مارا گیا

حد یہی ہے تو حد سے گزر جائیں گے

عشق چاہے گا چُپ چاپ مر جائیں گے

یہ محبت میں نکلی ہوئی فَال ہے

عشق تو لال ہے عشق تو لال ہے

عشق تو لال ہے عشق تو لال ہے

(خلیل الرحمان قمر)

[lemonpastrys]

this is for all my desis

it's always "i love you" and never

[ar1baaa]

Never show your happiness in front of a sad person.

-Maula Aliؓ

[besudhi]

खैर इतना तो मासूम नही, के चाल साज़ी समझे ना

देखता है सब मगर न जाने क्यों, अनजान बनता है

है जाम तो नहीं मगर फिर भी ये छलक गया,

है बहुत कठोर मगर बात जब-जब उनकी आई

ये हर दफा पिघल गया,

के बात जब-जब उनकी आई

न जाने क्यों, ये बेझिझक बेखुदी सी कर गया,

वो फिर से मुस्कुरा दिए,

हस्ब-ए-आदत, ये बेअकल, फिर उन्हीं पे मर गया..

[sunidhiigupta]

"तेरे मोहल्ले तक पहुंची तो देखा गली में मोहब्बत नीलाम थी"

—सुनिधि, मोहब्बत थी

I heard Laal Ishq today AGAIN, and went straight to heaven.
