#thaabangale

And since IPK has ruined every other love story for me, I always have Arshi in front of my eyes as I listen to each heart-breaking line of the songs. I mean, look at these lines :

Is the love just dreams?

Am I unending journey? Is it not enough?

Is the time a question?

Enough... my heart melts and getting dissolved to come near you

Funfact: I wonder if Arshi would have been in a very similar situation as the leads of this film if Arnav let his past hurt more than his heart yearned for Khushi on their wedding day/came back to painfully suggest they don't proceed with their relationship since he can't separate his past and present with her in his life.

Nonetheless, all songs perfectly capture their spark and this one in general is a 💎 so I did what I generally do and wrote Telugu(my mother tongue) lyrics to Thaabangale with Arshi in mind. They kinda match the movie and Arshi both. Do listen to the original if you haven't and let me know of your thoughts 💭😊

Thaabangale - (Teluguvised 😂)

Her:

తాపనికే రూపం తనై

తలచే, పిలిచే.. ఎదురుగా నిలిచే

ఊరించేనే, లాలించేనే

మరునిమిషము ఇది తగదంటూ విడిచే X2

నేరం, ఎవరిదెవరిదో అంటూ..

గాలించెనే, వేధించెనే

వైరం తనది తనతోనే అంటూ

విధే ఇలా విషయం తెలిపే || తాపనికే ||

Him :

నా మనసుకు చెలి నీ..

తలపే తపస్సైందా?

నీ పేరిక నాకు

ఆలపనే ఐందా?

Her :

ప్రేమంటే నదురు, బెదురా?

స్నేహం ఇదంటే జంకు, భయమా?

ఒకమారు విను ప్రియ సఖుడా,

లేత మనసును మరి మరి

విరచుటయే తగునా? || తాపనికే ||
