Can this make it to classical music side of tumbler?

What is your favorite classical song. It can be an instrumental, a film score one, or whatever. Mine is Petite Suite, L. 65, No. 3: menuet

It’s very special to me for some reason. It’s the song I listen to whenever I’m anxious or need something stabilizing. It will always and forever be my favorite one. So what’s yours and why?

آنے والا پل جانے والا ہے، ہو سکے تو اس میں، زندگی بتا دو، پل جو یہ جانے والا ہے

اک بار یوں ملی معصوم سی کلی، کھلتے ہوئے کہا، خوش باش میں چلی، دیکھتا تو یہیں ہے، ڈھونڈتا تو ںہیں ہے، پل جو ہیہ جانے والا ہے

اک بار وقت سے لمحہ گرا کہیں، وہاں داستاں ملی، لمحہ کہیں نہیں، تھوڑا سا ہنساکے تھوڑا سا رولاکے، پل یہ بھی جانے والا ہے

نغمہ : آنے والا پل جانے والا ہے فلم : گول مال - 1979 نغمہ نگار : گلزار گلوکار : کشور کمار

اداکار : امول پالیکر ، بندیا گوسوامی

موسیقار : آر ڈی برمن
