It’s thundering outdoors, which makes it a perfect evening to listen to one of those songs that you feel that you have always sheltered, unexpressed, in your heart:
This song, introduced in 1963, is from the classic Hindi film “Humrahi.”
Just as the two lovers sing these sweet words to each other, I sing to the heavy-laden clouds, the mist, and the dazzling shards of lightning that have joined together in the skies tonight…
[Please forgive this rough translation!]
Flowers bloom upon each path you walk as you smile
Where you stop for a breath becomes a place of intoxication
The cool, gentle breeze touches you
and carries your fragrance with it
But I stand, perplexed, at your face…
Sail Blue to the Moon
