लाकड़

लाकड़ जल्के कोय्ला होए जाए... ख़ाक
जिया जले तो कुछ होए रे... ना धुंआ, ना राख
जिया ना जलैय्यो रे, हाय
जिया ना लागैय्यो रे...

~ ओम्कारा

  2. One of Vishal Bharadwaj's most lilting melodies. Heavenly!

  3. The Hindi script somehow evokes the earthy, soulful, appeal of the song very vividly. Interesting touch.

    Xinu.geist would be the spirit of Xinu ?

  4. Hi Soumik! I guess 'spirit of xinu' would be sort of correct.. I'm aiming more towards 'xinu's take on life' or xinu's zeitgeist :)

    By the way, I haven't seen you around before.. how did you find me? Welcome :)
