Not Limited by Time | Bharatanatyam | ft. Mythili Prakash

Priyé | Not Limited by Time
Priye Charushile - Mukhari - Khanda Capu - Jayadeva Ashtapadi
Just a few words
From those lips
Reveal a smile
Breaking darkness
I feel within -
Like the chakora bird
Gazing at the full moon,
My eyes can’t look away
From your face -
Let go of pride
Your anger
My love
Let go -
Don't you see
This fire is burning me
So
Let me drink the nectar
From your lips
Let me quench
This fire -
Love’s arrows
Wreck my soul
Healed only by
Your tender feet
Sparks rage in my heart
A blaze of pain
Pleasure stains
My helpless love
For YOU -
You are my ornament
You are my life
You are my ocean
My existence
My love
Do you see me,
Recognise my truth?
Forgive my foolish ways
Let them not keep us apart
Be with me
Forever
Forever in my heart.
In October, I launched "Not Limited by Time." An initiative to remind ourselves, all of us, musicians, dancers, theater people and audiences that we cannot remain trapped in what an algorithm determines as art. We can't let art become a little bite-sized information. Art needs pause, time and needs to just sync in. I have been releasing a Raga Alapana every month. I am very happy that many other musicians, dancers, actors across genres have agreed to participate in this initiative "Not Limited by Time."
