Earphones please :D 

One of my favourite songs in the world :) Extremely beautiful. Was thinking of recording this for a long long time. Majorly have gone for the feel of the song, as I wanted to try some freestyle, but I believe it has come out very beautifully in just one take. Do follow, like, comment, repost, share :)

Here is my short description on the song: A mom sings to her boy and says please come fast my child and show me your face. The boy is Krishna. Then she goes on describing the great feats her son has achieved. Now the words say fast, "come krishna come fast", that is what the first line means. And one may surely argue that this must be sung fast and not slow. But I feel the description that comes afterwords suggests that the mom is actually describing her child also, which actually puts forth the question, is she in a hurry? So, is the word fast, just a way of showing her yearning to she her boy? Would you praise your child when you are desperate to see him? I dont think so. People may also say, during the first line the mom is just seeing whether her son is there. When the statement repeats again, however, she actually wants him to come and when it repeats again, she wants him "there" and so on (This is surely a good way to look at any song as it leads to lot of musical exploration ). This is portrayed musically by adding more gamakas, where the note stops, volume e.t.c. e.t.c. Though analysis is a good way to look at music, analysis is not music. Music is just what you feel that day. Sometimes an entire day you can be yearning to see your child and not be angry at him or anything, that is what I try to portray in my version. PS. It is so much fun singing Yaman Kalyani, slow :)

Lyrics:

I watch the ways of the river 
Running wild, and strong and free 
Undeterred in her journey 
She sings a song that speaks to me 

Oh to be like the river 
Day by day to find my road 
Calling out to streams surrounding 
"Come with me, we're going home" 

And if I was like the river 
I could sing out on the breeze 
Oh the trees would hear my story and my song 
Oh the river 

Oh to be like the mountain 
High above the world below 
Oh I'd have the strength to tell them 
Oh Be strong and don't let go 

And if I was like the mountain 
I would sing to all these hills 
Oh and they would know my story and my song 
Oh the mountain 

Oh to be like the river 
Every turn another road 
I'd sing to everything surrounding 
"Come with me, we're going home"

The River

Three Eyes of Shiva 

Another fresh and inspiring version of the ancient Mantra Om Tryambakam - Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra - Rudra Mantra in an East West fusion style - featuring all acoustic instruments . 
Nylon string guitar -  Stevin McNamara.
Glorious vocals by the renowned Indian classical vocalist, Mala Ganguly - 

Drums and percussion by Christo Pellani. 

Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra, also known as Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Mantra . It is also called Rudra mantra, referring to the furious aspect of Lord Shiva (Mahadeva), and Tryambakam mantra, alluding to Lord Shiva’s three eyes. The 3rd eye (the faculty of insight and intuition) is said to be located in the space between the eyebrows and is “opened” when one experiences the spiritual awakening.

Followers of Lord Shiva consider that this powerful mantra evokes the Shiva within human beings and removes the fear of death, liberating one from Samsara – the cycle of death and rebirth, hence the name “Great Death-conquering Mantra”.
Along with Gayatri mantra, it holds the highest place among the many Sanskrit mantras used for meditation, contemplation, and healing. Whereas Gayatri Mantra is meant for spiritual guidance and purification, Rudra mantra is used for rejuvenation, healing, and nurturance. Mahamrityunjay mantra is also considered a strong remedy to propitiate Lord Shani (The Sun God).

Lyrics in Sanskrit:

”Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushthivardhanam; Urvaarukamiva Bandhanaan Mrityormuksheeya Maamritaat.
Translation in English:
”We worship the three-eyed one who is fragrant, and who sustains all living beings. May he liberate us from (Samsara) death. May he (Lord Shiva) lead us to immortality, just as the cucumber is released from its bondage.”

Word-by-word meaning 	:

◦	Om – is the primeval ancient sound from which everything originated. This sacred syllable represents the entire manifested world and the unmanifest, and also that which lies beyond both the unmanifest and the manifest.
	◦	Tryambakam – represents the three-eyed Lord Shiva who sees what we can see but who also sees what we can not see.
	◦	Yajamahe – we honor, worship, adore.
	◦	Sugandhim – sweet smelling, fragrant.
	◦	Pushthi – a well-nourished condition, prosperous, thriving, the fullness of life. Reality nourishes (sustains) everything.
	◦	Vardhanam – one who strengthens, nourishes, causes to increase (in wealth, health, well-being, wisdom, knowledge). On the spiritual path, our understanding increases day by day.
	◦	Urvaarukamiva – like the cucumber. Here it symbolizes each of us and our relationship to existence.
	◦	Bandhanaan – from captivity.
	◦	Mrityormuksheeya – free, liberate from death, attain moksha (a blissful state of existence of a soul, completely free from the karmic bondage).
	◦	Maamritaat – may I never again be parted from immortality.
