LYRICS: Tu Ganga Ki Mauj from the 1952 film Baiju Bawara,
Singers: Mohammad Rafi and Lata Mangeshkar
Radha don't go to the river Jamuna alone
You're the wave of river Ganga and I'm the flow of river Jamuna
You're the wave of river Ganga and I'm the flow of river Jamuna
Our union is bound to happen
Our union is bound to happen
If you're the ocean then I'm the middle of it
I'm the paddle for the boat of your heart
You won't be able to ride the boat all by yourself
You won't find your destination without me
Please come, please come
Please come and bring the joy with you
Our union is bound to happen
How can the bonds of our heart break
Happiness isn't lost when it unites with joy
Even if you hide in a vortex, I won't let you hide
I'll drown your boat and I'll find you
We'll make, we'll make
One day we'll make the storm into a shore
Our union is bound to happen
You're the wave of river Ganga and I'm the flow of river
You're the wave of river Ganga and I'm the flow of river
Our union is bound to happen
Our union is bound to happen
You're the wave of river Ganga and I'm the flow of river Jamuna
You're the wave of river Ganga and I'm the flow of river Jamuna
Our union is bound to happen
2) 'Sai' (2010) Satinder Sartaaj
"I like this song because he is trying to include the whole world and show that we have different names for the same God, but it is the same God we pray to at the end of the day. I like the message of it. He asks God for lots of things in a very nice way. For example, "if I fall please pick me up. I'm a poet, be a poet for me." I think he's asking God to be his companion. It's a very popular song with Muslims, Sikhs and Hindus."
