Karsh Kale and Anoushka Shankar- Ghost Story

[bikramkalikotey]

love the music!

[sreya28]

ehsaan zindagi ne dikhaye na phir khabi (x2). It translates as: let life not show me pity anymore. hope that he doesnt return to my arms, anymore. the once that I smiled, now I cried my heart out. let me not shed a tear anymore. in this monsoon my clouded eye keep crying. after long the flood gates of my tears have been opened, In the joy of your return, the lamp of eyes have been lit they burn day and night. let life not show me pity ,anymore.

[sreya28]

the lyrics are: ehsaan zindagi ne dikhaye na phir khabi (x2) woh laut kar nigahoon main, aye na phir kabhi ekbar kya hase the ke jee bharke roo liye (x2) aankhon se hamne ashk bhaye na, phir kabhi ab ke sawaan main ghata ban ke gire hai aason(x2) mudato bad bahut khulke hasse hain asson, ab ke sawaan main ghata ban ke gire hai aason tere ane ke khushi main yeh chirag aa kaisa (x2) khushk palkoon pe sare shaam jale hain aason, ab ke sawaan main ghata ban ke gire hai aason

[brahmabul]

Sunidhi's soft voice sounds so lovely. Normally one doesn't associate her with such type of songs. The best part of the song is the sitar.

[neo15951]

ab ke savan ki ghata ban ke gire hai aasu

muddaton baad khul ke hase hai aasu!... awesome

[brightstarinthesky]

[Bommali08]

Wow, truly amazing.

I always liked Sunidhi; her voice here is just even more amazing....

[sxmadrid]

Vocal from 2:18 is astonishingly beautiful. Superb collection of music is Breathing Underwater. 5 stars.

[dheerajmehta85]

@sxmadrid absolutely!

[artmajr]

What's the translation to this song, anyone? Thanks :)

[MrRamana281]

Anoushka sitar followup of sunidhi voice are fantastic..

Very restrained voice of sunidhi. For a more exuberant version, see Sajna Ve Sajna of Sunidhi chauhan

[Sujathasv]

Anoushka Shankar is truly gifted.

[Sithuni78]

Sunidhi's voice is mesmerizing!!!!

[KumarTabla]

I hear some parts are Raag Rageshri and others are Raag Bhairavi.

[xodarap]

Beautiful!!! OMG! The singer is wonderful; her voice seems to just float through the air; Ms Shankar's sitar likewise.

For me though the best thing in this song is the drumming: there are so many subtle shifts and superimpositions of the underlying beat patterns.

[sediqe20]

sounds amazing! can anyone translate the lyrics to english?

[Lamantyn]

The sitar parts are fantastic, and give me a dark yet uplifting feeling... dunnow why... it's lovely, modern and old, simple and complex at the same time, i love it !

Thank you Anoushka.

The track as a whole could've been better though...

[ashwati9]

yup d vocals cud have bee done better

[Tifa85]

and thank you Karsh Kale!

[kedarnevergone]

This could have been better...

[digitalsurrealism]

totally ambient... brilliant composition... portrays the existence of creativity in humans

[Rainbowsexmoose]

Stunning.

[nancyl2]

Love the sound of this lovely voice, what a joy it would be to sing beside such artists.I hear my "tabla," : -) so smooth and chilling, just heavenly music. I am sorry I did not listen to other genre's of such wonderful talent. Truly a plus to my education of understanding other cultures gift to us.I am so grateful for this share. : -)

[shmuelechad]

this is one of the most mezmerising pieces of music ever

[pilesovinyl]

Oh my god, her voice is more haunting and beautiful than she is. WOW. This woman is amazing. The more I see of her and her talent, the more I feel transfixed and just overwhelmed. WOW (I already said that but what a track.......)WOW ;)

[Troy62486]

lol that's not actually her singing, she just plays sitar and keyboards, the singing is done by Sunidhi Chauhan

[DoctorMustafaSaad]

sublime...:)

[OYANEKU]

[digitalsurrealism]

[silentflame12]

Ilove this song. Such a nice mix.

[ijerakta]

Sea Dreamer Same tide that drew me closer Pushed me far away I held the hand that lit the dark night Nothing I could say I was on the outside I was waiting for a sign I set a course for a hidden island That lay beyond the deceiving silence I was on the dark side I was sailing towards the light I made my way through a sea of silence A pirates life for a worthless diamond

[Tifa85]

This isn't the translation to this song

[omdogstar]

Is this a response to ijerakta's translation ~ Sea Dreamer.... ?

If so, do you know the correct translation ?

[inkuban]

@Tifa85 but it is a complementary translation to the lyrics.

[dakoata121212]

I dont speak Hindu, can someone plz tell me the part of the lyrics, er even what this song is about. it souds verry beautiul ^^

[earthwind12]

uhhh its hindi...not hindu (hindu refers to the religon, hinduism)

[meghna22]

sunidhi chouhan is a guest artist on this album for this particular song, and Bollywood singers are not devoid of talent..Sunidhi's voice is beautiful

[newyorkgirl123000]

i agree bollywood has some great singers that have the most beautiful singing voices and can sing in a wide range of languages and styles look at sonu nigam an amazing highly acclaimed singer and sherya ghosal and the legends asha and lata that have entered the world record books highly popular and deserve to be india has great talent and their singers know how to sing so intensely and emotionally that you can feel their emotions it is tryly amazing.

[AhmedM85]

I'm not a huge fan of Bollywood, but I agree that Bollywood does produce one of the best music out there in terms of variety and talent. Not only the singers but the music directors and composers are not short of talent or creativity.

[toothlessangels]

Why this title .. ??

[Tifa85]

Huh? It's the artist and the song. You don't understand?

[toothlessangels]

I mean .. why a ghost story ?

[h3t3]

well to me Ghost Story sounds much more artistic than oh i dunno say....All American Rejects, just off the top of my head eh? LULZ

[persian93]

hi! i love this song ..

may i know the song is from which film please ?

[Tifa85]

It's not from a film. It's from Karsh Kale and Anoushka Shankar's CD Breathing Under Water. It's called Ghost Story.

The thing about Karsh Kale is dat his music always takes so long but it is okay he is really good with ambient style of music.
