Varshik sangeetamala ki chauthi kadi samarpit hai geetakar, gayak aur samvad lekhak, rangmanch karmi Swanand Kirkire ko jinhonne 'Parinita 'aur 'Hazaron Khwahishein Aisi' ke geeton se mere dil men pichhale teen salon se ek vishesh jagah bana li thi. Khoya Khoya Chand ke is geet ko jab mainne udate udate suna to main aavak rah gaya ki inhonne to Majaaj Lakhnavi ki nazm 'Aawara' ki panktiyan mar li hain. Us waqt ye dhyan nahin raha ki geet ki agali pankti mein bakayada Swanand ne 'Majaj' ki prerana ko chinhit kiya tha. Waise to mujhe poora geet hi bhata hai par isaka ye hissa mere liye behad khas hai ,lagata hai apani hi bhavanaon ko shabd mil gaye hain dil ko samajhana kah do kya aasan hai,
dil to fitarat se sun lo na beeeman hai
ye khush nahi hai jo mila, bas mangata hi hai chala
janata hai har lagi ka, dard hi hai bas ik sila.
jab kabhi ye dil laga, dard hi hamen mila,
dil ki har lagi ka sun lo dard hi hai ik sila !
kyoon naye naye se dard ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
kyoon apane aap se khafa-khafa jara jara sa naraj hai dil
Aur jab koyee lekhak ya geetakar bar-bar ye ehasas dilate rahe ki vo aapaki bat kar raha hai to dil mein usaki jagah vishisht ho jati hai. chahe vo raat hamari to chand ki saheli hai ..... ya fir bawra man dekhane chala ek sapana.... Swanand ne hamesha meri anubhootiyon ko chhuaa hai. aakhir Swanand mein ye khasiyat kahan se aaee? Chaliye doondhate hain is javab ka hal unhi ke kathyon dvara.. ..
Kya aapako pata hai ki Swanand vanijya (commerce) ke snatak hain aur unake mata pita khud Kumar Gandharv ke shishy rahe hain? Par Swanand ka kahana hai ki unhonne kabhi sangeet ke kshetr men jane ka sapana nahin dekha tha. yuvavastha men vo yahi socha karate ki mata pita to sangeet se jude hain hi, main kuchh naya kyoon na karoon ? Unki ye soch unhen le gaee National School of drama mein. Aaj jis bahumukhi pratibha ka jauhar vo dikha rahe hain vo bahut kuchh rangamanch se jude unake dinon ki den hain. Woh khud kahate hai ki natak men to hamen sab karana hota tha. Dharavahik ki kahaniyon se lekar sanvad lekhan taka, nirdeshan se geetakar tak ka ye safar svanand ke liye apane virasat me mile sanskaron ki taraf badana bhar hai.
Haal hi men svanand ne apane ek sakshatkar men kaha
"Main abhi bhi bolachal ki bhasha aur dainik jeevan men dikhane vale bimbon ka prayog karata hoon. naye jamane ke geetakar ki haisiyat se main sirf titaliyon aur nadi jaise rupakon ka istemal baraha nahin kar sakata. Ek lekhak moolatah apne liye likhata hai par vyavasayik bandishon ki wajah se aisa hamesha nahin ho pata. Aap bhale hi khana achchha banate hon par ek khanasame ki haisiyat se ye bhi jaroori he ki agar aap 5 vyanjan apane grahakon ko khilayen to sat apani or se bhi parosein."
Gulzar ki tarah unaka manana hai ki geet aise na hon jinamen sab spasht ho, kuchh aisa bhi hona chahiye jo sunane vale ko sochane ko majaboor kare use bar bar us geet ko sunane ke liye vivash kare. Swanand geetakar ka kiradar kisi bhi halat men sangeetakar se kam nahin manate. Woh kahate hain ki main khud ek geetakar bana kyoonki gane sunate waqt mera dhyan sabase jyada geet ke bolon par rahata tha. Aakhir sahi to kahate hen vo, jyadatar geet jo hamen yad rah jate hain vo unake bolon ki vajah se.
Aaiye nazar dalein ki kya keh rahe hain Swanand is geet mein
aaj shab jo chand ne hai roothane ki than li,
gardishon men hai sitare bat hamane man li!
andheri syah jindagi ko soojhati nahi gali,
ki aaj hath tham lo ik hath ki kami khali
kyoon khoye khoye chand ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
kyoon apane aap se khafa-khafa jara jara sa naraj hai dil
ye manjilen bhi khud hi tay kare,
ye fasale bhi khud hi tay kare
kyoon to raston pe fir saham saham samhal samhal ke chalata hai ye dil
kyoon khoye khoye chand ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
jindagi savalon ke javab dhoondane chali,
javab men savalon ki ik lanbi si ladi mili.
saval hi saval hain soojhati nahi gali,
ki aaj hath tham lo ik hath ki kami khali!
ji men aata hai, murda sitare noch loon
idhar bhi noch loon, udhar bhi noch loon !
yek do ka jikr kya main sare noch loon !
idhar bhi noch loon, udhar bhi noch loon !
sitare noch loon main sare noch loon
kyoon tu aaj itana vahashi hai, mijaj men majaj hai ai gam e dil
kyoon apane aap se khafa-khafa jara jara sa naraj hai dil
ye manjilen bhi khud hi tay kare,
ye fasale bhi khud hi tay kare
kyoon to raston pe fir saham saham samhal samhal ke chalata hai ye dil
kyoon khoye khoye chand ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
dil ko samajhana kah do kya aasan hai,
dil to fitarat se sun lo na beeeman hai
ye khush nahi hai jo mila, bas mangata hi hai chala
janata hai har lagi ka, dard hi hai bas ik sila.
jab kabhi ye dil laga, dard hi hamen mila,
dil ki har lagi ka sun lo dard hi hai ik sila !
kyoon naye naye se dard ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
kyoon apane aap se khafa-khafa zara zara sa naraj hai dil
ye manjilen bhi khud hi tay kare,
ye fasale bhi khud hi tay kare
kyoon to raston pe fir saham saham samhal samhal ke chalata hai ye dil
kyoon khoye khoye chand ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
kayoon apane aap se khafa-khafa jara jara sa naraj hai dil
ye manjilen bhi khud hi tay kare,
ye fasale bhi khud hi tay kare
kyoon to raston pe fir saham saham samhal samhal ke chalata hai ye dil
kyoon khoye khoye chand ki firak men, talash men, udas hai dila,
Khoya Khoya Chand ke is geet ki dhun banaee Shantanu Moitra ne aur Swanand ke sath sahayogi svar hai unke purane jodidar Ajay Jhingaran ka
