Bhenge Mor Gharer Chaabi

Genre : Puja/Bondhu (Worship/Friend)
powered by ODEO
Composed by Rabindranath Tagore
when he was fifty-six
Poush 20, 1324/ 4th January 1918
Probahini 67.
Swarabitan#16
Geetapanchashikaa
taken from the play Daakghar

originally inspired from Baul song 'Dekhechhi Roopshagorey moner manush..'
Arrangement : Bodhi-Bappa

Who will break my lock?
Who will take me out of my room, o friend?
No longer can I bear this lonely day without u!

The day may have dawned
The sun may be peeping from the horizon.

I see a road before me
Won't your chariot arrive at my doorstep?

All the stars in the sky stare.
Unblinking.
Waiting by the road of night-and-dawn...

Early morning the merry pedestrians may come and go,
singing in groups.

The flowers may be blooming,
The strings of 'Arunveena' may be creating some more wondrous music...

(Another approximate translation of Tagore. )

Hi Mousumi,
I am speechless :) All i can say is thanx for blogging and giving us the opportunity to listen to these excellent renditions. Singing rabindrasangeet is an art i believe and you have mastered it really really well.
Can i send you some farmaish please ?

Hello Mousumi-

Nice rendition, beautiful voice. But I have to agree with Pradip, recording/mixing need some fine tuning. Clear the pop at the very beginning, to begin with.
