A song so beautiful...

I want to hug the person who wrote this song. Each word, each sentence and each para is a story for each one of us. When this song started to play in the movie, I just couldn't hold back my tears. I was remembering my Ma as well as thinking about my son when it played.

I'm talking about the song 'Maa' written by Prasoon Joshi from the movie Taare Zameen Par which was sung by Shankar Mahadevan. I really want to know what was the inspiration behind this song for the writer. It is just so perfect!!

'MAA'

Main Kabhi Batlata Nahin
Par Andhere Se Darta Hoon Main Maa
Yun To Main,Dikhlata Nahin
Teri Parwaah Karta Hoon Main Maa
Tujhe Sab Hain Pata, Hain Na Maa
Tujhe Sab Hain Pata,,Meri Maa

Bheed Mein Yun Na Chodo Mujhe
Ghar Laut Ke Bhi Aa Naa Paoon Maa
Bhej Na Itna Door Mujkko Tu
Yaad Bhi Tujhko Aa Naa Paoon Maa
Kya Itna Bura Hoon Main Maa
Kya Itna Bura Meri Maa

Jab Bhi Kabhi Papa Mujhe
Jo Zor Se Jhoola Jhulate Hain Maa
Meri Nazar Dhoondhe Tujhe
Sochu Yahi Tu Aa Ke Thaamegi Maa

Unse Main Yeh Kehta Nahin
Par Main Seham Jaata Hoon Maa
Chehre Pe Aana Deta Nahin
Dil Hi Dil Mein Ghabraata Hoon Maa
Tujhe Sab Hai Pata Hai Naa Maa
Tujhe Sab Hai Pata Meri Maa

Main Kabhi Batlata Nahin
Par Andhere Se Darta Hoon Main Maa
Yun To Main,Dikhlata Nahin
Teri Parwaah Karta Hoon Main Maa
Tujhe Sab Hain Pata, Hain Na Maa
Tujhe Sab Hain Pata,,Meri Maa

And its not just that I got emotional only when I heard it first. It makes me so every time hear it.
And one day Anirudh got so concerned when he saw tears rolling down my cheeks that he came to me and asked "Aap ro rahe ho?" (You are crying?) And when I said 'Yes", he goes on "Aapko chinta ho rahi hai Papa ki?" (You are worried about Papa?) since hubby wasn't home that time. When I said "No", he asked further "Aapko yaad aa rahi hai Papa ki?" (You are missing Papa?) And when again I replied 'No' he hugged me tight for few seconds and then tried to wipe my tears :)

I just hugged him tighter and showered lots of kisses on him.
