Saahil Tak - Nitin Sawhney feat. Papon & Ashwin Srinivasan, Coke Studio @ MTV Season 2

- Опубліковано 27 лип 2012
- This is a song about crossing to a different shore and how the boatman is the guiding spirit who ferries people across the river. It talks about how the boatman is the only beacon of light amidst the swirling darkness of the river. And about how his presence gives migrants a sense of hope & calm.
This is a recurring theme in Nitin's set because he was brought up in different countries and considers his parents to have migrated similarly; wherein they were taken across the river to start afresh in a new land.

Song synopsis:
Tham lo patvaar tanik .... , Meri nav samble jaye
Tum hoke vanhar , toh tufan palat jaye
Band lo nazar mein yun,
Ke zindagi savar jaye
In balao se mein keh doon,
Dur se he laut jaye
Tham lo patvaar tanik .... , Meri nav samble jaye
Tum hoke vanhar , toh tufan palat jaye
Band lo nazar mein yun,
Ke zindagi savar jaye
In balao se mein keh doon,
Dur se he laut jaye
Maaji koi geet sunakar
Mujh ko meethi neend sula do
Aur bor hone se pehle
Mere saahil pass bula do.
Maaji koi geet sunakar
Mujh ko meethi neend sula do
Aur bor hone se pehle
Mere saahil pass bula do.
Tham lo patvaar tanik .... , Meri nav samble jaye
Tum hoke vanhar , toh tufan palat jaye
Band lo nazar mein yun,
Ke zindagi savar jaye
In balao se mein keh doon,
Dur se he laut jaye
Tham lo patvaar tanik .... , Meri nav samble jaye
Tum hoke vanhar , toh tufan palat jaye
Band lo nazar mein yun,
Ke zindagi savar jaye
In balao se mein keh doon,
Dur se he laut jaye
Maaji koi geet sunakar
Mujh ko meethi neend sula do
Aur bor hone se pehle
Mere saahil pass bula do.
Maaji koi geet sunakar
Mujh ko meethi neend sula do
Aur bor hone se pehle
Mere saahil pass bula do.
Maaji koi geet sunakar
Mere saahil pass bula do.
Tham lo patvaar tanik .... , Meri nav samble jaye
Tum hoke vanhar , toh tufan palat jaye
Band lo nazar mein yun,
Ke zindagi savar jaye
In balao se mein keh doon,
Dur se he laut jaye
Maaji koi geet sunakar
Mujh ko meethi neend sula do
Aur bor hone se pehle
Mere saahil pass bula do. (4)
Meaning of the song:
When it comes to the tough and dangerous journeys of life one needs a reliable and assuring hand. A hand you can hold on to, for strength and for direction.
The poet is sharing experiences about his journey across the rivers, to newer prosperous shores. Shores where he hopes to improve his life and give him opportunities that would remove all his hardships.
He surrenders his hope and faith in the boatman and implores him to ensure that the boat gets across safely. He asks the boatman to sing a song, as that would not just remove fear but also make his journey
One of the most underrated song on Coke Studio!
One of the best as well
So true!!
Oh .. so .. KI JAIHA !!!
An unofficial translation:
Hold the helm for but a moment.
And steady my boat;
For with you as a helmsman,
Even storms change course.
Do keep watch over me,
To see my life get better;
And I’ll tell my troubles,
To retreat from afar.
Sing me a song, oh boatman!
And lull me to sweet slumber.
And before the break of dawn,
Take me to my destination.
2022
And that's more than a translation

Papon is just amazing. His voice touched my soul what a voice man.
Have listened to this song so many times...just look at their voices Papon and Samidha, such strong voices...and love that composition...too good
this is strung together so beautifully. you could imagine someone putting together the song rather one-dimensionally... but Nitin Sawhney intersperses & overlaps Papon's mellow voice, Samidha's steady poignant voice and musical climax with such genius.
Maanjhi koi geet sunakar mujhko meethi neend sunaakar, the most beautiful track of this episode
Samidha Joglekar😍 . Тази песен е невероятна , благодарение на тази жена.
There is a huge difference in the quality of composition in this song by Nitin Sawhney and other CS India compositions by Papon. Papon's compositions are far superior :-)
stumble upon this song accidentally. ..and now I am in love with this song. superb lyrics. ..talented singers. .love the song
What a creative song
00:56 The bass guitarist is playing defretted guitar, that too at such young age !!! Awesome
