Duur Kinara
Shubha Mudgal and Swarathma
Written by Shubha Mudgal, Vasu Dixit, Pavan Kumar KJ and Jishnu Dasgupta
Vo gaye balam
Vo gaye nadiya paar
Aap toh paar utar gaye
Hum toh rahe majdhaar
(Fragile memories,
Snatches of sound,
Faded photographs
Feelings unbound,
Birds flying in a V,
Homeward bound)
Doorada oorina katheya
Kelide nanna hridaya
Ee gaaliyali, nadiyalli
My heart has heard the tales of that faraway land
The tales that waft in the breeze, and flow in the rivers
Taayiya madilalli
geleyara nageyalli
Naa kandenu katheyannu
In my mother’s lap, I’ve heard these tales
In the laughter of my friends, I’ve seen these tales
Re gehri nadiyaa
Naiyya jhanjhari, duur kinara
Us paar saajan hamaara
Re gehri nadiyaa
(Fading photographs,
snatches of sound,
fragile memories,
feelings unbound)
Kanasolagina kanasali naa kande aa ooranu indu
In a dream within a dream I’ve seen that faraway land
(Translated from Kannada by Jishnu Dasgupta)

Comment by nikhil kumar January 24, 2012 @ 12:05 pmHey, I have fallen in love with your music over my winter break. Sadly, I am back in california now but I would love to learn how to play this song on the guitar. If there is anyway you could post chords I would be most thankful.
P.S. My roommate is chinese-american and I have played your songs so often that he recognizes them and even hums to them
. Thought you would find that funny.
