Melody for Monday: Aaj sajan mohe

Composed by SD Burman with the words by Sahir Ludhianvi, this is a mix of melody, emotion, and lyrical beauty. Dutt's voice brings an unparalleled depth-'Kahin jiyaa nahin laage bin tore'-distils the utter fear and emptiness of being without one's object of love. The fact that she is using the kirtan mode to render this longing makes the song realise the notion of divinity more accurately-it's nothing but love and yearning.
