About the song
It started out as a chord sequence inspired by Vedic Shlokas, that Amrit demo'd to the band. Alap filled in the haunting bi-lingual lyrics. and one of Antardhwani's first sequenced songs was born.

Alap is a Genius with words. Amrit is a genius with music. Subhamoy knows how to do a mix. Supratik shredded his guitar in the background. Casio sounds were used for the drums, jazz organs, and strings.
Lyrics
Teri yaadon mein khoye huye
Dariyaan mein behte diye
Jalte hain ishq ke silsile
Teri palkhon ke tale

Jaane kyon hain yeh dil bekaraar
Jaane kyon mere dil me hain pyar
Tere liye
Tere liye

Tere ishq mein sau gam liye
Tujhe sau gam bhi diye
Dono hain ghayal kyon
Main aur tu
Main aur tu


Take a walk inside my mind
Do you see the hurt inside
For Seven years I’ve been tending to
The garden of pain nurtured by you

Does my silence talk to you
Does it scream inside of you
Inside of you
Inside of you

Coz nothing changes overnite
Nothing changes on its own
If I’ve cradled you, why cant you cradle me
For life
Or just for a night
