Roshni Se (feat. Anu Malik, Abhijeet Bhattacharya)

The song 'Roshni Se' by Alka Yagnik, featuring Anu Malik and Abhijeet Bhattacharya, is a poetic exploration of love and longing. The lyrics are rich with metaphors and imagery, painting a vivid picture of a lover's quest to find their beloved. The repeated phrase 'Roshni se bhare bhare, bhare bhare naina tere' (Your eyes are filled with light) suggests that the beloved's eyes are not just beautiful but also illuminating, symbolizing hope and guidance in the lover's journey.

The song delves into the theme of unattainable love, as indicated by the lines 'chhuke bole naa chhuna mujhe' (They say don't touch me even if you touch). This paradoxical statement reflects the emotional distance and the elusive nature of the beloved, who remains just out of reach despite the lover's intense yearning. The imagery of searching the skies and rivers ('dhunda hai dhunda hai tujhe aakash upar tale' and 'shayad kisi nadiya pe chalta huwa too mile') further emphasizes the vast and almost impossible quest the lover undertakes.

The lyrics also touch upon the passage of time and the relentless pursuit of love. The line 'maine samay rok ke tera pata puchha hai' (I have stopped time to ask for your address) signifies the lover's desperation and determination to find their beloved, even if it means defying the natural order. The song beautifully captures the essence of love as a powerful, almost mystical force that drives individuals to go to great lengths, often blurring the lines between reality and dreams.
