(LYRICS, TRANSLATION & VIDEO) Clouds, rain, saawan has great social and romantic significance in the sub-continent. They bring happiness and sadness in the life of the people.

My video presentation is in remembrance of a great soul,  Dr. Bhupen Hazarika  who passed away on 5th of Nov. 2011.  He was a great a composer who used folk music with a touch of the contemporary, a singer with a unique voice (Ganga tu Behti ho Kyun) and was a complete institution. This song is about the  TIME  and has also been sung by Lata ji, Asha ji so beautifully for the movie Rudaali. Dr. Bhupen Hazarika in his unique voice imparts a profound effect. I have created videos on all the 3 songs. "The video describes the mental condition of  a woman who had an unforgettable but very short time with her Love and was separated.
