Welcome

Why LMT is Unique

LMT contains an expandable glossary of over 30 interconnected emotions, offering philosophical, practical and spiritual lyrical antidotes for every life situation.
It also provides one-word interpretations of song sentiments in English, Hindi and Urdu — making it a quick, powerful reference for everyone.

This is “Word Power Made Easy” through the world of lyrics, supported by thousands of examples from film songs written by renowned poets.

A Tribute to the Lyricists

LMT honours celebrated lyricist-poets as well as their lesser-known colleagues whose work shaped our emotional vocabulary. Their music and words have guided generations through joy, sorrow, love, conflict, healing and transformation.

As Anand Bakshi beautifully said:
“Hindi film melodies are integrated into every Indian’s life, for every conceivable occasion — from the arrival of a baby to a man’s last journey.”
