Lyrics and translation:

har tajurbe ko taraazuu mein rakhaa
hisaabon mein uljha rahaa

Why weigh every experience? Why be ensnared in calculating every move?

zindagii saamne aayi
to ehtraam bhii na kiyaa

Life appeared in all its glory but alas, wasn't heeded to.

ik samandar peegayaa, phirbhi.. pyaas vohii pyaas rahii
mere andar koii bagaavat si.. aag vohiii aag rahii

Drinking the ocean in its entirety didn't quench the thirst...
Inside me is a rebellious fire that doesn't abate...

Har Tajurbe Ko feat. Subhamita Bannerjee and Ravichandra Kulur

hi all .. enjoy the medley of two beautiful songs of A.R.Rahman from the movie Indra rendered by Shylu Ravindran on guitar and Fazil Sha on keys.

A.R.Rahman Medley | Indra Mash- up| Shylu Ravindran

A Sanskrit adaptation of "Hurt" (originally written by Trent Reznor & made famous by Johnny Cash' haunting rendition (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt1Pwfnh5pc)
Lyrics: @krishashok & KSKarun (twitter.com/kskarun)
This version is told from the viewpoint of Duryodhana (from Bhasa's 2nd century play Urubhanga)

Verse 1
माम् अद्य अहिंसयम् (I hurt myself today)
भावना परीक्षितुम्  (to test my feelings)
पीडाम् योजयाम्यहम् (I focus on the pain)
याम् अस्ति यथार्थम् (that is the only truth)
रंध्रं छिद्रयति सूची (the needle tears a hole)
परिचितदंशः (the very familiar sting)
यतेऽहम् हन्तुम् सर्वं (I try to destroy it all)
सर्वं स्मराम्यहम् (I remember everything)
 
Chorus
किमहम् अभवम् (What have I become?)
मधुरतम मित्र (My sweetest friend)
यान् सर्वान् जानामि (everyone I know)
अन्ते विगच्छन्ति (goes away, in the end)
त्वम् लभेथाः सर्वम् (You can have it all)
मम तृणसाम्राज्यम् (my empire of grass/dirt)
निराशा यच्छाम्यहम् (I bring tragedy)
त्वाम् व्यथयाम्यहम् (I hurt you)
 
Verse 2
कण्टक मौलिम् वहामि (I wear this crown of thorns)
आनृतकासने स्थितन् (upon my liar's chair)
हीनविचारपूर्णः (mind full of harmful thoughts)
प्रतिकर्तुम् न शक्यम् (That i cannot repair)
कालस्य कलङ्केषु (In the stains of time)
भावनाः लीयन्ते  (Feelings disappear)
अन्यः त्वमसि (You are someone else)
अहमत्रैवास्मि (I am still right here)

Picture: Duryodhana, as a character in the Bhasa play "Urubhanga", an alternative take on the Mahabharatha story where he realizes the futility of war and loses interest in empire.

EDIT: (11/11/2017) The reception towards this piece had motivated me to start the Beauty of Ragas series.  I have re-recorded and remastered the original track as I was never happy with the quality of the flute recording. I hope you all like it as well now.. :)

A sequel to my previous composition for my blog posting on the raga Nalinakanthi : http://aboutindianmusic.com/2012/03/raga-nalinakanthi-part-2/ 

I hope unlike the usual way in which sequels suck, this is better than the previous. 

Do use headphones please :-)
