Aaj Halki Si Shaam Hai...

Aaj halki si shaam hai - by Bodhitree, is a song which I heard about 2-3 days back, and fuck oh fuck, I was blown away. It isn't as if I haven't heard of Bodhitree's GMD, Sabka Katega, XL Ki Kudiyaan, or anything. But, this was something. Soothing. Pleasant. And even more pleasing. The tabla divinity, and the soulful vocals of the lead vocalist, Satadru Bagchi - This song has absolutely everything to blow your ass off! And if you are missing this, you are missing some good music, really!

The lyrics:

आज हल्की सी शाम है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी...
तुम कहो ये क्या हाल है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी.
आज हल्की सी शाम है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी...

गहरे डूबे हुए, झील में चाँद है...
पहले से ही कभी अपनी पहचान है
तेरे तारों की आँचल में ही रहती है पूरी ज़मीन!

आज हल्की शाम है, देखो साथ है अजनबी...
तुम कहो ये क्या हाल है, देखो साथ है अजनबी.
आज हल्की सी शाम है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी...

रात ढल जाएगी, सुबह की आह में
हलके पलकों में भी कुछ तेरी साँसों में,
तेरी आँखों में मिल जाएगी,
जीने की राहें नयी!
-
रात ढल जाएगी, ख्वाबों की राहो में
अंखियों से गाएगी हम को बहलाएगी,
निंदिया ले जाएगी, बातों ही बातों में.

आज हल्की सी शाम है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी...

थोड़े पहरों में ही तुम चली जाओगी,
कैसे कह दूं अभी जान ले जाओगी...
मुझे पूछे ना क्या हो गया,
कहने को कुछ नहीं!

आज हल्की सी शाम है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी...
तुम कहो ये क्या हाल है, देखो ना साथ है अजनबी...

PS: Everyone who is finally done listening to this track by Bodhitree, go figure "Ghar by Bodhitree!" - "Majestic track. Out of the world vocals, excellent transitions from bass guitar to tabla, but what makes it stand out are the lyrics." - Srijan Shukla, The Paused World.
