Lyrics
Down with dog position, locusts, cobra and standing tree.
I am the motherland expanding pregnancy unplanned in the
21st century.
More than our people, our culture, our country
I AM ALCHEMY.
Raag main Taal, rhythm and melody...
Conceived when Shiva breathe the kiss which died on the
lips of his bride Paravati.
Desi, Gora, Kaala
I'm every grain of rice in your basmati
Every spice in your Garam Masala.
I'm the turmeric stains on your Grandmothers hands.
I'm "Enna meena dika, die, dominica,
Red teeka flames on the pineal glands.
I'm the maala beads, slipping through her fingers like
Display seeds of sand through an hour glass.
I'm the jigsaw made by the shattered fragments of the past,
Pieced together in a way that works for us.
A billion strong and uprising and its
IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE US.
The interwoven chorus of Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Marathi,
Hindi, Kashmiri, Malayalam, Nepali, Punjabi, Sindhi, Telugu, Tamil,
Urdu..... Ginger, Chilli and garlic.
Brahmin, Kshatriya, Dalit.. Touch me
For I'm no longer untouchable.
Capable, practically inescapable, no longer unaccountable,
I am your accountant, I program your I.T.
I'm the chai, latte, ice tea... dat'd chaiwalla stares at the moongfali...
He sighs.. On the rise of the middle class whispering their upwardly
Mobile MANTRAS.
Thank GOD Almighty
I am FREE at last.
I sing "Tumhi ho mata HINDUSTAN"
As I smoke beedi's, chew Paan n watch Bollywood
DVD's starring Akshay Kumar and Shahrukh Khan.
Remixing Pranayama by whispering my Mantra---
"I AM A DISCO DANCER" under my breath.
Profound, Primitive, Superstitious
Spread from Canada to Australia, Trinidad to Mauritius...
I will always be INDIA.
The impoverished child that bangs the window of your ambassador car.
The old man who instead of clapping his hands... simply says
"ARRE WAAAAAAHHHH"
I Am Sarasvati whose "Veena" was later remixed into the shape
Of a "Sitar".
Just like "OM mane padme Hum....of the table drum became the
"Ta teri kit... two turn tables and a mixer.
I Am the Rickshawalla
I have the white tiger, a survivor rising up in a drive to progress.
I am the distressed heart of Delhi, Calcutta's cloaked street,
Bombay's blocked arteries and an accumulation of stress... yes!!!
"I AM HINDUSTAN...."
In the land of Ustad AliAkbar Khan and kaun banega crorepati,
Krishnamurthy, Vivekananda , Tagore and Aurandathi, and
Pop bellied elephant headed superhero .Ganpati.
OM SHANTI
I am the monk's saffron ropes, I am the scent of the
Cinnamon, cardamom, clove.
I am the air thick with the rain and the funk of the monsoon.
I am the sliver of moon that SHIVA wears for hairclip.
I am he unsanctioned love-marriage between Bharatnatyam and back flip.
Converse trainers under kurta pyjama and salwar kameej.
I'm the thunder of the storms on the horizon weeping the
Solidified tears of Rudraksha beads.
I AM ALCHEMY.

@SillyCoda In today's world most of the people don't care about the lyrics music emotion struggle they just want to listen to the nonsense beats with no sense of music and lyrics.
Pretty surprised looking at the number of views and likes!!!
this is one of those songs that gives you goosebumps instantly and all of India is beautifully described through the video
got addicted to it ever since it came out the first day in 2013 and now it's 2015 and still can't forget it
this song is like a tranquilizing drug to your soul
2024 still getting the goosebumps
describes india in the trippiest way possible
At 3:33, I literally cried. Idkw, it made me feel so connected with my roots.
Kay radayla
"TOUCH ME, FOR NO LONGER I AM AN UNTOUCHABLE"
What a psychedelic masterpiece! Why isn't this super famous, This music video does better job than many books written on this country.
🙌
This track is just so underrated. The artist is phenomenal and the lyric is absolutely golden❤ How is it that more people are not listening to this?
This song describes India in the most eloquent way possible. Literally amazing.
A talent to be recognised and appreciated but sadly India listens to yoyo funny singh!
Zuber Khan yeah that's sad. The real music is here and no one listens to it. idk understand how shit like yoyo gets so much fame and consideration while beautiful music like this is still hidden!!
This is incredible, so mind-blowing. I could watch this again and again.
I don't think that there is any other song which conveys "I love India" so eloquently and beautifully!
Thanks dude. It was written from the heart. I am of Indian descent, but my first visit was when I was aged 28. This was written twelve years later, as I fell in love with the culture I was born into. Yet to attach ourselves with pride to an identity, a culture or a nation can also do us a great deal of damage; two thinkers who speak eloquently about this are Tagore and Krishnamurti. Thanks for your kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the words. Mayur wrote the song afterwards; then the absolutely brilliant visuals came; these are truly the unrecognised genius behind this piece of art. It was a collaborative effort made with a skeleton team of around ten people. Sadly, many did not get paid, but that is a longer story!
I AM ALCHEMY!
The lyrics are in the description also if you put the caption on while playing you can see them :)
underrated af !
I Hope the wait was worth :)
How many of you are stoned ?
Bro total lost.mewsic is awesome.

Loading up the gun ;)

For all those who do not know; India has a decent population of Nepali speaking people, which sums up to 4 million. So shut up and listen to the song!!

I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY DISLIKES , ITS SIMPLE ITS WAY BEYOND THERE UNDERSTANDING LEVEL ....
FOR ME ITS SIMPLE FANTABLUS !
amazing video and what a kickass sound and lyrics! Great job to the team who made this. DIG!!!
Profund individuals make profound art, and the other ones make other kind of art, thank you for such an existence, this is truly an inspiration...
Everyone is an artist, and it doesn't matter how 'good' your art is. Celebrate the diversity of life, and abundance; do not fall into the old caste way of thinking, where one type of artist is greater than other. We are all untouchable. We are all artists. We are all free.
@@theworldaccordingtogeoffre6317 brother you do what you like and let me do what I like also refrain from unsolicited advices, to my mind it is a trait of low vibe individuals who think they know more. Peace ...
@@ChackraTantra yes dude. all about the lo fi vibes. do what you like! it's all good in the hood, dood
@@ChackraTantra why you so angry bro? say hi to your mum for me
