My Compositions

Akhiyaan

Got tired of waiting for it to be perfect. Just right. Every layer and every note in place. Now my computer can’t handle any more layers of sound, and I need more RAM :)

But then, here it is. Akhiyaan. Music, voice and arrangement by me. Lyrics by Saint Kabir. All music recorded and rendered on one laptop with Ableton Live and Audacity.

Next revision will be after the magician Rohan plays with the song. It will be transformed into something totally zOMG awesome with his music and talent. Until then, comments welcome.

Lyrics:

Ankhiyan To Chhayee Pari, Panth Nihari Nihari
Jihadiyan Chhaala Parya, Naam Pukari Pukari
Birha Kamandal Kar Liye, Bairagi Do Nain
Mange Daras Madhukari, Chhake Rahe Din Rain

Translation:

My eyes have developed black spots, Watching the path whence you may come
Blistered has become my tongue, chanting away your name
Separation pangs fill my begging bowl, Void is all in the two eyes
Anxious for only a glimpse delight, Waiting patiently day and night.
