Addicted

I want to listen to it more... I want to feel it more... I wish it never ends... stint of 8 and half odd minutes doesn't seem to be enough... If something has to strike a chord it should directly strike your soul. Maula mere Maula song from Delhi 6 is one of its kind. Soul touching! Wat's like listening to a song and getting a urge to kneel down and pray? The Rahman + Prasson Joshi's 'Arziyan'(Maula mere Maula) is the best prayer song I have heard till date. To me, it outwits Gurus last year orison numbers, 'Khwaja mere Khwaja' and 'Manmohana' from Jodhaa Akhbar. Rahman seems to be doing his bit to blur the Hindu and Muslim divide through his compositions. Well thats what I think. Synonymous to this line in the song, 'Pyaas leke aaya tha, dariya woh bhar laaya'( He came thirsty, and he returned riverful) I am left with a  riverful of happiness, fulfilment and content each time I listen to the song.
