Nishant Mittal - Raakh - Lyrics

Updated: Jul 18

Raakh is a new track by Nishant Mittal. Being released under the label 'Jo Marzi Studios' (sponsored by The Testament), the song welcomes Nishant's longtime collaborator - Abhishek Pawar - on audio production and Rahul Sethi (from Jaza, Sahi) has made the lyrics video.


Raakh is available on this website, all streaming platforms and on Youtube (below).



"I wrote this song when I heard about the extraordinary forest fires in the US, back in 2019. I imagined how it must have been for animals who once called that incessantly burning paradise "home". Then I thought, it must have not been very different from how people felt when they lost their loved ones and livelihood during Covid. Raakh is about forest fires, both literally and metaphorically. The song is intense and extremely different from everything being played right now. I hope you can feel that."

Lyrics


ये जो आखिरी ज़मीन

का है सवाल

क्यूँ आसमां में है ये आग


नीर भी ये क्यूँ

काला पड़ा

किस तेल की तुझे है तलाश


आखिरी ज़मीन

का है सवाल

क्यूँ आसमां में है ये आग


आँखों के आगे है मंज़र तमाम

जंगल के राजा के जंगल में आग

हवा में धूआं

और ज़मीन पर


राख

राख


आखिरी ज़मीन

का है सवाल

क्यूँ आसमां में है ये आग


नीर भी ये क्यूँ

काला पड़ा

किस तेल की तुझे है तलाश



आखिरी ज़मीन

मांगे जवाब

क्यूँ आसमां में है ये आग


नीर भी ये क्यूँ

काला पड़ा


राख

राख
