Just words

Last few days were weary and doleful. But now Im up and running. I almost see myself chanting the Doris Day song -

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

Some people tend to make up their own lyrics while singing. This reminds me of the most hilarious instance of my younger days.

Apologies to those who don't know Hindi, for the song was in that language. We were a group of kids playing Antakshari. A current hit was Tere jaisa yaar kahaan from the movie Yaarana, which I decided to sing.

One of the stanzas begins with:-
Meri zindagi sanvaari, mujhko gale laga ke,
baittha diya phalak pe, mujhe khaak se uttha ke

With great gusto, I sang:
Meri zindagi sanvaari, mujhko gale laga ke,
baittha diya palang pe, mujhe khaat se uttha ke

To this day, the memory never fails to make me smile :)
