Yaad Na Jaaye ( Memories won’t leave me )

yaad naa jaaye, beete dinon kee
Memories won’t leave me, memories of days past

jaa ke naa aaye jo din
Days gone never to return

dil kyo bulaaye, unhe dil kyo bulaaye?
Why does the heart call them, why does my heart call them?

din jo pakheru hote, pinjade mein main rakh letaa
If the days were birds, I would keep them in a cage

paalataa unako jatan se, motee ke daane detaa
I would tend to them with care/love, feed them pearls

seene se rahataa lagaaye
Keep them close to my breast/heart

tasaweer unakee chhupaa ke, rakhadoo jahaa jee chaahe
I could hide her picture, keep it anywhere I chose

man mein basee wo murat lekin mite naa mitaye
But the one ensconced in my heart, will not erase however I try

kahane ko hain wo paraaye
Even though she is supposed to belong to another

Come on.. let us both become strangers once again

Not a very appropriate song to be uploaded during Valentine’s week.. but such is life….

A poignant song from Gumrah sung by Mahendra Kapoor.. the lyrics are so touching.. many are likely to relate to this song notwithstanding Valentine’s week… I am adding the English translation of the song which I found on the net…

Chalo Ek baar Phir Se Ajnabee Ban Jaayen Hum Dono…

(Come on, once again let the both of us become strangers)

I shall not any longer hold expectations of  consideration from you
Nor shall you look at me with eyes filled with wrong intentions
My heartbeat shall not hereafter falter with my words
Nor shall the secret of your grief be evident in your glances
(Come on, once again let the both of us become strangers )

Some perplexity stops you too out of hesitation
People tell me too that this beauty belongs elsewhere
My companions too are the disgraces of my past
You have with you too the shadows of the bygone nights
(Come on, once again let the both of us become strangers )

When relationship becomes a malady, it’s better to forget it
When attachment becomes a burden, it’s better to shatter it
When taking the saga to its final destination is impossible,
It’s better to grant it a lovely twist and to leave the matter alone

(Come on, once again let the both of us become strangers )

draw me close to you …

Draw me close to You ...NEVER LET ME GO

This is a wonderful worship song which I have sung  acknowledging that JESUS  IS MY FIRST DESIRE  &  FRIEND .

On International Friendship Day,  I dedicate this song to all my friends , urging them to come to know Jesus as a very personal and intimate friend..

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY !

Vellai Pura Ondru – By Kaushick M & Anu Anand

This is one of the vintage goldies of Ilayaraja from the movie Puthu Kavithai, based on Kalyaani Raagam,  a song which makes one keep humming it for days together after listening to it… originally sung by K.J.Yesudas  and  S.Janaki…

I have great pleasure and privilege in  covering this awesome duet with Anu Anand. A few words about Anu…  superbly gifted with a sweet voice,  she is a singer with great musical acumen, having the ability to bring life to any song through her expressive and innovative singing.. most of all she has a burning passion for music..  although she is relatively a new entrant to the web world music arena, she has already carved out a niche place for herself in a forum like Muziboo, having captured the musical hearts of so many people around the globe with her mellifluous  voice & versatile singing ….  She has been a wonderful collaborator in this duet project and I am looking forward to doing more duets with her in the near future.. Please do visit her space in Muziboo to listen to her songs uploaded there  http://www.muziboo.com/Anu_Anand/

Bagon Mein Bahaar Hai (Araadhana) – Kaushick M Duet with Noureen | Online Karaoke

This is my second duet with the Wonder Child Singer NOUREEN ( Babu’s 13 year old daughter), the first one being Jaane Kaise Kab Kahaan

Once more this is a 50 : 13 combo ( I am already a half centurion he he he) which I am sure is unique in Muziboo…

You all will agree that she has done a fantastic job in rendering this duet . This is yet another demonstration of her prodigious talent … this is again Noureen’s song all the way and I have the greatest honour and privilege singing along with her…

Thanks @ Babu for making this second 50-13 combo duet project happen and thanks for mixing this song so wonderfully as usual….

apni aankhon ke saandar mein (ghazal) – sung by Kaushick M

Apni Aankhon Ke Samandar Mein (Ghazal) – By Kaushick M | Upload Music

agjit Singh is a favourite of mine … it is also easier to sing his ghazals compared to any of the others like Ghulam Ali or Hariharan… In spite of that, I ended up with a lot of offs and other mistakes… I recorded this when I was briefly in the right frame of mind, in the wee hours of the morning ( in fact it was around 2.30 am )… a rather hurried exercise in recording & mixing – could’nt find the energy to re do them… so have left them as they are, banking on the tolerance & magnanimous indulgence of my friends here at muziboo … he he he… I may not have been very accurate in terms of adhering to the original harqats as I have rendered this purely out of my memory of hearing this ghazal a long time back…

Sun Sun Sun Sun Zalima (Aar Paar) – Duet with Latha | Upload Music
Presenting an awesome oldie from Aar Paar (1954)… a movie which is so contemporary in style and content, so fresh to watch even today 57 years after its original release! This song is one of my favourite ones and has been in my wish list for a long time now… a Rafi – Geeta Dutt – O.P.Nayyar combo song….

I have great pleasure in doing this duet with Latha who is one of my favourite singers in Muziboo… she has done a fantastic job bringing out the spirit of this song with her superb voice , rendition and mischievous/naughty expressions that this song demands… in the original song, Rafi Saab takes a back seat and it is Geeta Dutt who really sizzles… so it is here in this cover too… it is truly Latha who has sizzled and made this cover come alive … (superb singing @Latha… and thanks for being such a wonderful collaborator)… it is truly a privilege working with her….
I want to thank Babu for his superb magical mixing & mastering , which has added tremendously to the song… Thanks @Babu Bhai for being ever willing to help…
