The Seventh Seal (1957)






"I want to confess as best I can, but my heart is empty. The emptiness is a mirror in which I see my own face and it fills me with loathing and horror. My indifference to my fellow man has cut me off. I live now in a world of phantoms, a prisoner of my own dreams."

Travellers and Magicians





The Dzongkha film Travellers and Magicians out of Bhutan

ये जो हल्का हल्का सुरूर है






Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan

Dancing to every look of the wine-giver, I drank
Playing with the waves, I drank
O Lord, forgive my sins
That I was afraid, but still with great pleasure, I drank
That I would drink without prerogative, when did I have such courage?
With the acquiescence of my lover’s veiled eyes, I drank
Close to me, far from me
Someone surely lives in my heart
Since I have seen her eyes
This mild inebriation remains with me
