I.A. Richards Figurative language

     My favorite film is 'Dhadakan'. So I would like to compare one of the songs of this film with I.A. Richards's figurative language. In this song we find several mis understanding or more poetical imagination. Which never exists in reality. Here is some information about this song.

Singer: Udit Narayan and Alka  yagnik.

Music: Nadeem, shravan.

Lyricist: sameer.

Song:
 
" Dil ne  ye kaha hai  dil se
   Mohbbat ho gai he tumse
   Meri jaan mere dilbar mera
   Atbar karlo

   Tumjo kehdo  to chand taro ko
   Tod lavuga me in havao ko in
    Ghatao ko mod lavuga me."

    In second line we find more exaggeration. That hero says to his beloved that I will bring stars and moon for you. And also 'in ghatao ko mod lavuga me' . it seems quiet poetical. In real world it's impossible.

   But yet, it reflects writer's true feeling. We can feel that hero really loves his beloved. So whatever writer feels, exactly the reader can also feel. Which is the ultimate aim of the poet.
