read about the discussions on toppas and bhajans...and how this is not a bhajan and a toppa subclass with it's pakistani routes...is thumri very different from this? if so could any one tell me how?
read a question asking if toppa is bengali. this is not a toppa but had toppa alankar in it as many of tagore's taalchhara gaan have. toppa's routes are in punjab (pakistani punjab to be precise) - it is fabled to be the music of the camel-drivers. the jerksof a camel ride being depicted by the typical tappa-style jerky alankars.
Hi this is not a bhajan...this is a song by Rabindranath Tagore. This song probably falls in the 'toppa' genre. as far as i know, 'toppa' songs do not have fixed beats and therefore are not accompanied by tabla or drums.
this is sohini halder............daughter of rudraprasad sengupta and swatilekha sengupta and wife of goutam halder. she won national award as supporting actress for that film
can anyone please tell me who actually sang the song - i knw she is not a proffessional artiste (coz thats what aparna sen said)but i think we should still know who it was...
wow.. amazing! Thank you so much... I agree with you totally regarding interpretation of lyrics... yet its so wonderful to have something to start the journey,the journey through the song... listening it agian and again...finding out a little bit more each time. This song, dont know why, fills me with emotions beyond description. Once again...thank you so much for posting this song and offering non bengalis some light into the meaning of the song. thank you.
however, i gotto say, i feel i kinda stretched myself there! Never translated a tagore ever before, maybe i crossed certain limits there.. my fellow bongs mite take some offence on that one!
I wish to formally apologise if i've abused the translation in any way folks.. :)
Ha ha ha... I am sure they all will be proud of you! if you wish to translate more I have a whole bunch of requests to place!!! Dont worry all Tagore songs!
@nicolaigogol : i doubt if many "fellow-bongs" could actually object to your translation with any justification, for the philosophy of the song is a pretty distant and inaccessible one!
personally, as one of them at least, i appreciate your effort but would just offer one suggestion - maybe you could try to re-organise your translation in the form of a poem?
Well.... posting the lyrics mite not be that difficult, but the interpretation will have to be one's own i'm afraid. U see one has to understand the context of the movie/characters along wid the deeper insight that this particular tagore song brings here. I'll try n post strictly a lyrical translation of the meaning n leave it at that.
I think all those who know bengali here will undrestand that it's beyond us to try n translate Tagore in any form, ever. :)

These type of rabindrasangeet are called taalchara gaan; thats why they are usually accompanied by tanpura only!

Here goes the translation of the song:
[Bengali] Hridoy amaar prokash holo anonto aakashe.. Bedon-banshi uthhlo beje bataashe
Ei-je aalo-r aakulata, e to jani amaar katha- Pheere eshe amaar pran-e amaare udaashe baire tumi nana beshe phero nana chhole; Janine to amaar mala diyechhi kar gale..
Aajke dekhi paran-majhe, tomar galae shob mala je- Shob niye shesh dhora dile gabheer shorbonashe

[english] part 1 My soul (conciousness) realises itself among the eternal skies (This Universe) today The sad-tuned flute fills the air around
This desperate need that the light has, it's very much my story too- It comes back to haunt my soul/heart.. fills them with sorrow

At least you have tried with your capacity.
We should have a full scale web site of Rabindranath with english transations of his poems and songs.
