Dear Haule Haule,

 I heard you for the first time as a 6-year-old when Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi first premiered on television. I distinctly remember thinking to myself that this is it. This is love. This is what it feels like.
 
 
 Then I grew up, forgot about this gem and quite honestly the feeling too.
 Up until I heard you again recently.
 

The very beauty of the lyrics is their simplicity. Not in its structure but in its meaning. Every emotion felt by that 6-year-old flooded back and you made me realise that nothing has really changed in my perception of love, a concept I was lost figuring out for a while.
 
 
 “Tu sabra to kar mere yaar
 Zara saans to le dildaar
 Chal phikr nu goli maar yaar
 Hai din zindadi de char”
 
 
 Love is simple
 Love can't be forced
 And if it’s meant to be, it will be
 
 
 “Rab de sahare chal de
 Nahe kinare chal de
 Doori hai na kahare chal de
 Kya kehke gaya tha shaayar woh siyaana
 Aag ka dariyan doob ke jaana”
 
 
 Love is belief
 Love is devotion
 And it's worth the pain
 
 
 As a hopeless romantic I can only be grateful that you exist.

Take this as a small thank you note from all the hopeful hearts out there.
 
 
 A reinstated believer,
 Adhwiti
