youtu.be/q27MysROi7Q In many ways this racy number represents all that Tansen-ique humbly aspires.A niche unknown.Talented singers expressing themselves in musical corners and not hip,composers who stitch songs that startle , lyrics that seduce and a musical arrangement that is contemporary(khol, electric sarod, sax, guitar, percussion ) but challenges the classical sound of yore.Shantanu Moitra, Kaushiki Chakraborty,Swanand Kirkire,with their great arrangement produce that eclectic sound and do just that. I leave you all to this..Just after the Karva Chauth and that elusive moon. At the soul of this song is a Keertan, and like all keertans this is a love song. Its a song about a girl who has fallen in love with the moon. The lyrics talk about the girl complaining to the night about how the moon hides from her all day and at times disappears all together! Swanand Kirkires words were inspired by the moon & how it often forms the perfect accompaniment to love. Only this time, he wanted to reinterpret it in a completely different way. This is a song about a girl confessing her love, all the while knowing that what she wishes for is unattainable. She is aware that her feelings will never be reciprocated but still cant wait to see the moon every night! Kaushiki Chakravarthy brings out this sweet pain through the song.

Later the poet moves to saying that she cant help but fall in love with this nomad, compares it to the moon, with its ever changing faces, also complaining that he is someone who doesnt stay long enough to satiate her need for his company. Says that his thoughts trouble her and give her sleepless nights. She has tried to bind him with her love, but given his restless nature, he cannot be contained. But she is helpless, as he has stolen her heart...
