My Dil Goes Mmmm...

So, it's Valentine's Day! One of those days in the year which feel different. There's something in the air which infuses you with the scent of love. For me, the feeling of love has always been associated with music since two concepts strike a harmonious chord that resonates with the heart. At different times in life, different pieces of music have stung my heart to inject the love chemical. This time around, its the Bangalore effect showing, with the piece having been given words from the local language which has just started sounding familiar. There's no way I can think of comprehending the poetry but as they say, music has its own language and so does love! Interestingly, this time the language, instead of mitigating the intensity of the chord, adds a mesmerizing mystery effect! The least I can do for the melody here is to quote the lyrics. They go something like this:

Anisutide yaako endu neenene nannavalendu
Maayada lokadinda nanagaage bandalendu
aha enta madura yaatane Kollu hudugi
omme nanna haage summaane

Anisutide yaako endu...

Suriyuva soneyu suside ninnade parimala
Iduyaara kanasalo neenu hodare talamala
Purna chendira dwaja haakida ninnaya mogavanu kanda ksana...
Naakalede neene seremane tappi nanna appiko omme
Haage summane

Anisutide yaako endu...

Tutigala hoovali aadada maatina sihide
Manasina putadali premada ninnade sahiene
Haneyali bareyada ninna hesara hrudayadi naane korediruve nina gunte idara kalpane
Nanna hesara kooge omme haage summane

Anisutide yaako endu
neenene nannavalendu
Maayada lokadinda ninagaage bandalendu aha enta madura yaatane
Kollu hudugi yomme nanna haage summaane

Anisutide yaako endu...

You can mesmerize yourself with this melody composed by Manu Moorthy in Sonu Nigam's or Shreya Ghoshal's (different lyrics) voice here. So for all you people in love and those looking for love like I am, here come my heart felt wishes...

Happy Valentine's Day!

well here surely there is nothing in the air except the smell of commercialism :)
Like you associate with music, i find that in films and books. To each to his own ...
Cheers

nanagu anisutide :), valentine's day as usual sucked, the weather didnt help either.
a couple of line from rushdie abt music: "Our lives are not what we deserve; they are, let us agree, in many painful ways deficient. Song shows us a world that is worthy of our yearning, it shows us our selves as they might be, if we were worthy of the world."

so freaking true!

That was fucking brilliant Raghu. Thats what i meant i get high on such lines from films, music and lyrics. I somehow lack the talent to understand the subtleties of music on its own :)

These days I have been taking solace in Music as its the only thing which lets me be calm and at peace with myself. Thanks to Raghu partly who exposed me to some nice songs :) Nice work Kedar...
