Steemit openmic week 52... Raahein ( Original song )

in openmic •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hi.

Last week was really busy taking care of my parents so I did not get any time to upload a song. Today I had time so I have recorded a song. The song is in Hindi and talks about the roads that we travel through life metaphorically.

Thanks to @luzcypher and @pfunk for the contest.

Raahein.

Lyrics and translation:

Inhi raahon se tu aaya hai ( On the road of life you have come )

Inhi raahon se tu jaayega ( And on the same road you will go )

Kahaan gayi hain wo awaazein ( Where have all the voices gone )

Reh gayi hain tanhaaiyaan ( What remains is sheer loneliness )

Tanhaa zindagi ke mor pe ( All alone at the turn of your life )

Koi to hai jo aayega ( You look for someone to be there for you )

Khaamoshi ki sun le awaazein ( Listen to the sound of the silence }

Keh rahi ik dastaan ( It is telling you a story )

Chorus :
Phir koi karwaan sehra mein kho gaya ( There is a caravan that is lost in the desert)

Ret bhi dhoonde hai kadamon ke wo nishaan ( and the sand is trying to find the footsteps that you left behind )

Na ruke raastey na ruke ye jahaan ( But the road never stops for you and nor does the world. )

Bichar gaya tha lehron mein ( You were separated from your loved ones in the waves of the sea )

Dhoond raha tha kuch khwaabon mein ( And you were trying to find something special in your dreams )

Talaash thi ik manzar ki ( You were looking for the culmination and zenith of your dreams )

Duniya ki in raahon mein ( On the roads of this world that you travel in life )

Chorus :
Phir koi karwaan sehra mein kho gaya ( There is a caravan that is lost in the desert)

Ret bhi dhoonde hai kadamon ke wo nishaan ( and the sand is trying to find the footsteps that you left behind )

Na ruke raastey na ruke ye jahaan ( But the road never stops for you and nor does the world. )

I hope the meaning comes through in my translation.

Peace and love !!!

Love the E-major to F-sharp main riff alongside the accompanying vocal melody during the verses... The chorus is equally impactful and complimentary... So very, very cool! Loved this...

👏👏👏👏👏 You know, I always look forward to your spot on the open mic and you have not disappointed me yet! Once again, being a language I don't do, I have no idea what the lyrics are suggesting. However that does not stop me from enjoying your performance as usual. I like your voice and melodies and there something very
haunting about your whistling . I must’ve met I also like the video backgrounds that you use so, well done all round, good one! 😉👍

p.s. Look after your parents well, because after all, without them we would not be seeing you on the open mic!

Thank you for your words of appreciation Sir. The lyrics are suggesting that we have been on the road of life and will carry on always. They talk about loneliness and a want for companionship. The road and life will go on for ever even though we may be gone. I guess I should translate it up there.

My parents are very old and need my time. I try my best to look after them well. Thank you again.

Peace !!!
