"Abhi nahin aana, sajna..
Mohe thoda marne de..
Intezaar karne de..
Abhi nahin aana, sajna.."



The lyrics take me back to a rainy afternoon at 86/1, College Street.. I remember Dibyadyuti da (Department of English), my immediate senior both in C.B.S. and Presidency, singing the song ever so beautifully.. The poignant undercurrent of the song, the deep-seated pain in the lyrics struck me at once, and I have sung the above stanza to myself countless no. of times..

These songwriters must be gods..
