Chapter 14- Tunes of Heart
Part two
Draupadi's heart fell as she stood up on the stage facing the crowd whereas Arjun sat down in the chair tuning his guitar .
Lucky him ! Thought Draupadi , at least he can sit down and does not has to worry about his legs shaking . All he has to do is sit down play the guitar and sing continue thinking draupadi , where else I m left with all the difficult jobs like stage coverage , maintaining expressions , interacting with audience with the help of song and so on . But now that I m here I would not let it down so easily . Come on Draupadi u can do it ! She motivated herself and just remembered the words of Arjun
"Pour your heart out! "
Okay she thought lets see what my heart has stored for me , I m gonna pour it out .
As the music began Draupadi sighed and closing her eyes started the first line
Draupadi :
Kaise batayein
Kyun tujhko chahe
Yaara bata na paayein
Baatein dilon ki
How do I tell,
Why I love you,
O friend, I'm unable
She sang this as not kalyug's Draupadi but dwarparyug 's one . Though she loved Arjun solely ,she could never tell that .
Draupadi :
Dekho jo baki
Aankhein tujhe samjhaein
Tu jaane na..
Tu jaane na...
see, whatever talks of hearts
is remaining,
the eyes explain to you
you don't know..
you don't know..
But though not directly she verified her love indirectly many times only if he would understand it . Even if he did , he was always inclined to others than her either his brother and mother or his other wives .
Arjun
milke bhi, hum na mile
Tumse na jaane kyun, meelon ke,
Hain faasle tumse na jaane kyu
Even after meeting, I didn't meet-
you, don't know why, of miles-
there are distances from u, don't know
Now it was Arjun turn to pour his heart out . Even being his draupadi was never his. Though he had won her and her heart , he could never have her like his wife forever neither physically nor emotionally . Though she was always there in front of him ,though only she was some space away from him the space between them was more than enough .
Arjun
Anjaane, hain silsile
Tum se na jaane kyun, sapne hai
Palkon tale tum se na jaane kyun..
unknown series (of say, links) are there,
attached to you, don't know why, dreams are there-
below the eyelids, because of you, don't know why
Their love was no ordinary love . His dream was her though he tried to ignore it always .
Both
Kaise batayein
Kyun tujhko chahen
Yaara batha na paayein
Baatein dilon ki
Dekho jo baki
Aake tujhe samjhayein
Tu jaane na..
Tu jaane na
Everyone was surprised to hear this lovely song by the couple . Everyone admired their voice and the judges too were left mesmerised .
Draupadi
Nigahon mein dekho meri jo hai bas gaya
Woh hai milta tumse hoobahoo
Jaane teri aankhein ya baatein thi vajah...
Hue tum jo dil ki aarzoo
that who's living (can say stuck) in my eyes,
that looks exactly like you,
I don't know whether your eyes or talks were the reason,
that you became the wish of heart,
Arjun was always there not only in heart but in her eyes too cause he was the sight that she longed to see everyday .
Draupadi
Tum paas ho ke bhi
Tum aas ho ke bhi
Ehsaas ho ke bhi
Apne nahin aise hai hum ko gile
Tumse na jaane kyun, meelon ke
Hain faasle tumse na jaane kyun...
Tu jaane na..
Tu jaane na
you, even though near,
you, even though wished for,
even after being a feeling,
are not mine, why do I have such complaints,
against you, don't know why, of miles,
there are distances from u, don't know why,
you don't know..
you don't know..
Being always with her but not close to her , that was their relation . He was hers and she was his but only if they could be practically .
Arjun
o jaane na jaane na jaane na
tu jaane na
Khayalon mein lakhon baatein,
Yoon toh keh gaya..
Bola kuch na tere saamne
hue na begaane bhi tum hoke aur ke
Dekho tum na mere hi bane
o, don't know- don't know- don't know,
you don't know,
in thoughts millions of things (I)
said though,
Didn't say anything when in front of you,
Arjun never had the strength to express his love to Draupadi . Though being the mighty warrior who could fight with death he was sacred to express his love to his wife . He could never confess his love openly .
Arjun
Afsos hota hai, dil bhi yeh rota hai
Sapne sanjota hai, pagla hua soche ye
Hum the mile tum se na jaane kyun
Meelon ke, hain faasle tumse na jaane kyun
Anjaane, hain silsile
Tum se na jaane kyun, sapne hai
Palko tale tum se na jaane kyun...
You didn't get alienated even after being of someone else's,
see you didn't become mine either,
there is grief, the heart cries too,
it cherishes dreams, gone mad, it thinks
why I met you,
of miles there are distances from you,
unknown series are there,
attached to you, don't know why, dreams are there-
below the eyelids, because of you, don't know why..
For this mistake of his he always felt bad . His heart everyday cried though he acted that he was cool with sharing her only his inner self knew how broken he was.
Both
Kaise batayein

Baatein dilon ki
Dekho jo baki
Aake tujhe samjhayein
Tu jaane na..
