You converted Laila back to Leela under ghar wapsi scheme... Yogi ji will be proud of you 😆😂

Beautiful – great voice, music, lyrics and perfect enunciation of Sanskrit. A caveat: Eric Clapton’s Layla lyrics refer to 'old man' which in US slang means either husband or boyfriend - certainly not father. Clapton wrote Layla to woo Patti Boyd who was at that time wife of George Harrison

Hats off to you Ashok for pulling this off.

किं सः उन्मत्तः? Is he mad?
द्रष्टुं समर्थो न वा? Can he see or not?
(पद्भ्यां) चलितुं शक्तः ? Can he walk?
उत चलन् पतति ? If he walks will he fall?
जीवति उत मृतः ?  Is he alive or dead?
चिन्तयितुं समर्थः?  Is he capable of thought?
तं न गणयामो वयम् We will ignore him
तेन किमस्माकम्? What does he do for us? 

चित्रायसम् अभवत्  He became steel
महायस्कान्तक्षेत्रे In the great magnetic field
कालम् अतीत्य गच्छति सति He traveled time
मनुकुलस्य भविष्यार्थम् For the future of mankind

कस्यापि न इष्टः  Nobody wants him
भुवनं प्रेक्षते  He just stares at the world
प्रतीकारं चिन्तयन् Planning his vengeance
प्रतीकारं चिन्तयन् Planning his vengeance

अयं मुहूर्तः This is the time
भीतिं प्रसारयितुम् For him to spread fear
परलोकात् परवैरम् Vengeance from the other world
ये तेन मुक्तास्तान् हन्ति Kills the people once saved by him

कस्यापि न इष्टः Nobody wants him
प्रतिमुखीकुर्वन्ति तम् They just turn away from him
कोपि न उपकरोति Nobody helps him
अथ तस्य प्रतिक्रिया Now his revenge

बहुमलपादरक्षाः Boots of lead
भयेन पूरयति तेषां हृदयम् Fill their hearts full of dread
धावन्ति यथावेगम् They run as fast as they can
अयोनरः पुनर्जीवति Iron man lives again

Lyrics

त्वयि एकाकिन्यां किं करिष्यसि  (What will you do for your loneliness)
Tvayi ēkākin'yāṁ kiṁ kariṣyasi 
यदा सहचरः कोऽपि नास्ति  (When for companionship there is no one)
yadā sahacaraḥ kō̕pi nāsti 
चिरम् धावन्ती गुप्ता असि त्वम्  (Time has past, you have been hiding)
ciram dhāvantī guptā asi tvam
जानास्येव तत् गर्व इति  	(You must know that it is your pride)
 jānāsyēva tat garva iti 

लीले, साष्टाङ्गं प्रणमामि  (Leela, I fall at your feet)
līlē, sāṣṭāṅgaṁ praṇamāmi     
लीले, प्रिये, त्वम् याचेऽहम्  (Leela, my love, I implore thee)
līlē, priyē, tvam yācē̕ham 
लीले, चित्तव्याकुलम् शमय  (Leela, pacify my troubled mind)
līlē, cittavyākulam śamaya 

तव शोकम् अपहर्तुम् अयते  (I tried to remove your sorrow)
tava śōkam apahartum ayatē  
त्वत्पिता यदा निराशाम् (अजनयत्)  (When your father let you down)
tvatpitā yadā nirāśām (ajanayat) 
मूढोऽहम्! त्वयि अनुरागो जातः!  (Fool that I am, love for you was born)
mūḍhō̕ham! Tvayi anurāgō jātaḥ! 
लोक एव अधोमुखीकृतः!  (My whole world was turned upside down)
 Lōka ēva adhōmukhīkr̥taḥ! 

उन्मादात् प्राक् मम (Before I become mad)
Unmādāt prāk mama  
मां पुनरुद्धर (Bring me back to normalcy)
māṁ punarud'dhara 
गतिर्नास्तीति मा वद (Don't tell me that there's no hope / way)
gatirnāstīti mā vada 
व्यर्थमिदम् प्रेम मा ब्रूहि  (Don't tell me that my love is in vain)
vyarthamidam prēma mā brūhi

[LYRICS]


---( cyprinidae)---

i was swimming 
much too fast
in my world 
made out of glass
would you feed me?
would you see me every day?
i'm a pet that you just can't take out to play
i'll sit 
inside my home
patient
malaise
the phone
stain my eyes
stain my eyes
red
silver
and blue
no one feels like this...
would you feed me?
would you see me?
no.
red
silver
blue
blue...


---( the cutting room floor )---

bits and pieces make up this body. this world's so empty. and i feel like i'm drowning. my head breaks surface and i feel nothing.

i wake up staring
at the same old bed sheets
reverse necktie
yeah-
i still feel empty...
EVERYTHING IS GREY
IN MY DREAMS OF SILENT SCREAMS
i'll sleep face-down
so if i die in my sleep
i fall face-first
into flames that scorch me
EVERYTHING'S A FUCKING MESS
and i swear-
THIS IS MY BEST
what's wrong?
are you really waiting for
someone to surround you again?
pray against the pillow case
bite your tongue and hide your face
sleep and forget everything...

the water flows into my mouth and down my throat.

i take comfort
in that we're both empty
stain my eyes red
fuck-
THIS JUST KILLS ME...
everything i preach-
IS BLEACH I DRINK, THEN SPEAK
what's wrong?
were you really expecting to find:
someone you often dream?
bite your nails and pick your skin
wait for them to grow again
some things never will...
what's more:
i feel i'm being led on again...
feel too much:
feel empty.
out into the water now...
don't throw up-
just keep it down
i
only
ever
watch
my
dreams
I'M DRINKING OCEANS
i'm still swimming...
I'M DRINKING OCEANS
i'm still swimming...
I'M DRINKING OCEANS
i'm still swimming...
I'M DRINKING OCEANS
i'm still-
empty...

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...

Two Sides of Karma takes you on a journey through the bright and dark parts of life, that the ancient Indian concept of Karma subjects us to. The emotions conveyed through the songs explore both the good and the bad of the ever-prevailing Karma. Along with IndoSoul’s original creations, you will find interpretations of two Indian Classical compositions by Saint Thyagaraja. Sit back and soak up the IndoSoul sound, that takes you through a rollercoaster of emotions encompassing joy, love and even obsession.

I take the ridiculous and the sublime, add cellos, violins, guitars and random internet collaborators to make music of sorts
