Mujh Se Pehli Si Mohabbat

Mujh Se Pehli Si Mohabbat [ Singer : Rajni Pallavi ]
Poet: Faiz Ahmad Faiz Do Not Ask ... Do not ask me For that past love When I thought You alone illumined This entire world And because of you The sorrows of life Did not matter. I thought Your beauty game permanence To the colors of spring And your eyes were The only stars In the universe. I thought If I could only make you mine Destiny would, forever, be In my hands. Now I know There are afflictions Which have nothing to do with desire Raptures Which have nothing to do with love. On the dark loom of centuries Woven into Silk, damask, and goldcloth Is the oppressive enigma Of our lives. Everywhere-- In the valleys and bazaars-- Human flesh is being sold-- Throbbing between layers of dust-- Bathed in blood. The furnace of poverty and disease Disgorges body after body-- Your beauty is still A river of gems But now I know There are afflictions Which have nothing to do with desire Raptures Which have nothing to do with love. My love, do not ask me ...

Madhav Hamar Ratal Dur Des

Madhav Hamar Ratal Dur Des [ Singer : Rajni Pallavi ]
This song is penned by great maithili poet Mahakavi Vidyapati.
प्रस्तुत रचना महाकवि विद्यापति द्वारा रचित कएल गेल अछि । एहिठाम माधबक तात्पर्य प्रियतम सं अछि । नायिकाक प्रियतम दुर देस अर्थात परदेस मे रहैत छनि । प्रियतमक कुसल-छेम कहय बाला नायिका क' कियो नहि भेटैत छनि । प्रियतम लाख कोस दुर रहथु मुदा जुग जुग जिबउथ । ई त हमर अभाग अछि जे ओ हमरा सं फराक छथि, एहि मे हुनकर कोनों दोस नहि छनि । दैब हमर करमे बाम क' देलनि तैं ने ओ हमर सभटा नेह आ पिरीत बिसरि गेलाह । हृदय दुःख-वेदना सं भरि गेल अछि ओ वेदना तीर जका बेधने जा रहल अछि । ठीके अनकर दुःख के आन की वुझतैक । कवि जयराम विद्यापति कहैत छथि तखन त एहि दुःख मे राजा सेहो किछु नहि क' सकैत छथि कारण हिनकर दैबे वाम भय गेल छथिन ।

He Gaura Baju

He Gaura Baju [ Singer : Rajni Pallavi ]
प्रस्तुत पदक रचना महाकवि विद्यापति द्वारा कयल गेल अछि । ई भक्ति रसक पद थीक । महादेब कोनो एकटा झोरा मे भांग रखने छलाह जे कतौ नहि भेट रहल छनि । तैं ओ गौरा सं पुछैत छथिन जे हे गौरा हमर भांगक झोरा कतय अछि? कियैक त' झोरा नहि भेटलाक कारण आइ भरि दिन भांग नहि खा सकलौ अछि, तै मोन भकुआयल अछि । गौरी कहैत छथिन जे ओहि झोरा मे कोन सोनाक मणि छल जे एतेक अप्पस्यात छी । विद्यापति कहैत छथि जे हे मनाईन गौरी--सुनू जों भांगक झोरा महादेब क' नहि भेटलनि त' आइ अहाँ क' दुर्गति भेलेटा अछि ।

Chanak Ijot Me

चानक इजोत मे [ Singer : Rajni Pallavi ]
This song is a deviation from the traditional style of Maithili songs and has been composed with an entirely novice approach. I am dedicating this piece of art to the audience and hope that it will be appreciated. I seek your sincere advice and feedback on the same.
This song is written by Mr. Satish Chandra Jha, an emerging poet in Maithili literature. His poetry has already been part of sevreal magazines and journals. We wish that his art work will further strengthen the glorious legacy of Maithili literature.

Namami Shamishan Nirvaan Rupam (Shiva Rudrastakam)

श्री रूद्र अष्टकम -- Sri Rudra Ashtakam [ Singer : Rajni Pallavi ]
The Rudrastakam (Sanskrit: रुद्राष्टकम, Rurdāṣṭakam) is a Sanskrit composition in devotion of Lord Rudra or Shiva, composed by the Hindu Bhakti poet Sant Tulsidas (Sanskrit: तुलसीदास). Tulsidas composed in the late fifteenth century Uttar Pradesh of India and created many other literary pieces including the magnum opus Ram Charit Manas. The devotional hymn "Rudrastakam" appears in the Uttara Kand of the celebrated Ram Charit Manas, where demon King Ravana composed the hymn to propitiate Lord Shiva. The Astakam is in reverence to Lord Rudra, though the context pertains to the benevolent Lord Shiva, the post-Vedic transformation of the malevolent Rudra. It is arguable that the distinction between Rudra and Shiva was already lost by the time of Goswami Tulsidas. The Rudrastakam is lucid and simple in style and plays an instrumental role in the Shaiva traditions. The term "Astakam" is derived from the Sanskrit word aṣṭan, meaning "eight". An astakam is made up of eight stanzas. An Astakam belong to the genre of lyric poetry, which tends to be short, extremely melodic, and contemplative. It reflects and portrays the poet's own feelings, states of mind, and perceptions about the theme or character in the Astakam.
