No it doesn't and she herself (pallavee) ...Hi<br /> No it doesn't and she herself (pallavee) has said that. There are little nuances that do not come out when you translate it like that. And of course it is open to interpretation. For example the first two lines, <br />Maalavun taak deep<br />Chetavun anga anga <br />is something like <br />Dim the glow of the lamp<br />kindling the fire within our bodies..<br />It is like saying that one is more incandescent than the other.<br />And then again Lata's singing and the Hridayanath's melody adds something else to the song. I think that is a surbahar in the interludes. I am told this is supposed to be Mangal Bhairav though there is not much use of the Madhyam. Mehdi Hasan's ghazal sort of uses the same notes but it seems to be Bhoopali with both dhaivats. This version has one of my favourite singers Arati Ankalikar singing it though I must say I prefer Lata in the higher registers in this song. Hridayanath is playing the harmonium.<br /><br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAoi2sV7V5YSSWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2309362817539389132.post-21183231339421317532012-07-10T09:53:43.929-04:002012-07-10T09:53:43.929-04:00SSW, does this translation do justice?

Just finished the last song and then told myself, "This is getting bad.

Since I dont know Marathi, I am relying on the translation.<br />There is a story behind Mehdi Hassan's "Ab Ke Hum Bichde", which sounds similar, but the tune came about due to a reason.
