Mera Jahaan - Taare Zameen Par

Playback - Adnan Sami, Auriel Cordo, Ananya Wadkar

Music - Shailendra Barve - Guest composer for this song
(Shankar - Ehsan - Loy for the rest of the songs)

Lyrics - Prasoon Joshi & Amol Gupte

A little sweet a little sour.. is what everything in life is.
There are happy moments & sad moments but you got to live through it.
There are dreams which we all wish were real and then there are nightmares which you wish never happened!

So there's always a mix of sweet & salt in all phases of our lives. It's just that we go through the happy times with ease and so quickly but the sad times are the one's which are difficult.. but well you got to deal with it.

A Little Sweet, A Little Sour
A Little Close Not Too Far
All I Need, All I Need
All I Need Is To Be Free

Is what Inu thinks when he is tired of the daily rut of being unsuccessful and being pulled up by his parents & teachers.. and wants to be free..

Chhoo Loon Main Itna Kareeb
Chal Padun To Kitne Door
Sapna Ka Buna Sweater Sa Warm
Safed Baadalon Ke PaarMera Jahan

He imagines a world of his own, so sweet, so warm and so comfortable.

Udne Ko Sau Pankh Diye Hai
Chadme Ko Khula Aasmaan
Udne Ko Sau Pankh Diye Hai
Chadme Ko Khula Aasmaan
Mudne Ko Hai Karwat Karwat
Aur Badhne Ko Mera Jahan

Are the lines which I think are well sung by Adnan Sami - and it's about how there's no limit, there are no boundaries. There are 100s of options if your willing to try and there are ways to go on.

Bachpan Ke Din Chaar
Na Aayenge Baar Baar
Jee Le Jee Le Mere Yaar

The kido days never come back, make the most of "now"!

Jeib Khaali To Udhaar
Jee Zindagi

And finally, live life to the fullest, even if there are hard times like no money, borrow, live and .. I'd say.. return it some day ! :)

Beautiful song, beautiful music & full marks to Adnan Sami & the gang.

Hmm...The song is truly great !! But it was composed by Shailendra Barve, and not SEL. It was a guest composition, but the best score of the movie and quite certainly of 2007. (Yes, gives Mr. Rahaman a run for his money with his Guru)
