Indian fusion raga carnatic jam melody
Welcome to Arvind's music page. You can find some of my interesting creations. I am a keen student of world music (don't read too much into the word 'world' ;).
Hope you enjoy them and leave enough in the way of feedback to make my next creation even more enjoyable :)
Story behind the song
'Aadum chidambaramo' in ragam Behag and countless melodies by IR and ARR have always been a listener's delight. Somewhere along the line, i guess a composition in this raga was bound to happen.

To the purists, it may not strictly adhere to Behag - but you can also find some interesting blends from closely related ragas, keep the guesses coming ! :)

Dhinam Dhinam thedi
thirumugam naadi
azhaikiren anbe nee enge (2)
nee enge dinam dinam thedi
nee enge thirumugam vadi (2)
muppadu nodiyum moonru nimidam
melliya imayum bAramagum
kangalin sogam kavidhai agum
nenjin bAram kadhal agum
endhan uyirum neeyadi
endhan peyarum neeyadi
Dhinam Dhinam thedi
thirumugam naadi
azhaikiren anbe nee enge (2)
Odum nadiyum kadalai thedum
karayil odum nadiyai thedum
Iravil nilavum vaanai thedum
manjal vaanum nilavai thedum
endhan uyirum neeyadi
endhan peyarum neeyadi
Dhinam Dhinam thedi
thirumugam naadi
azhaikiren anbe nee enge (2)
nee enge dinam dinam thedi
nee enge thirumugam vadi (2)
English :
Looking out for you everyday, seeking your beautiful face
requesting you to come with me, but where are you ?
where are you, everyday ?
where are you, the beautiful face ?
thirty seconds seem to be thirty minutes
thin eyebrows seem to be a big burden
sadness in my eyes is poetry
sadness in my heart is (because of) love
you are my heart
you are my name
Looking out for you everyday, seeking your beautiful face
requesting you to come with me, but where are you ?
every river seeks the ocean
every raft seeks the river
moon seeks the sky in the night
golden horizon (sky) seeks the moon (in the evening)
you are my heart
you are my name
Looking out for you everyday, seeking your beautiful face
requesting you to come with me, but where are you ?
where are you, everyday ?
where are you, the beautiful face ?
