Oh, nagori
May 25, 2005
That night hip hop arrived
Right then I knew that you and me
Were meant to chill and vibe
Elevated feelin'
Baul in the buildin'
Everybody chillin'
Now I'm independent
I can touch the ceilin'
I can be like Dylan
I can make a million
I can have opinions
I'm in love
I'm in love with the song
I'm in love with the beat
I'm in love with the rhythm
I said
I'm in love
I'm in love with the song
I'm in love with the beat
I'm in love with the rhythm
Chorus:
Chul bhijaabo na go aami
(I won't wet my hair)
Beni bhijaabo na
(I won't wet my bun)
Chul bhijaabo na
(I won't wet my hair)
Aamar jemon beni temni robe
(My bun stays as it is)
Chul bhijaabo na x 4
(I won't wet my hair)
Cholo tomai aami niye jayi
(Come with me, Let me take you)
Dur kothao cholo (eh)
(Somewhere far away)
Notun kothao niye jaabo
(I'll take you, Somewhere new)
Aamar shathe cholo (eh)
(Come with me)
Shantiniketane boshe aachi aami
(I'm sitting here in Shantiniketan)
Pashe boshe ache Tarak Das
(Sitting next to me is Tarak Das)
Gaan lekha lekhi baul shekha sheki
(Writing songs, learning baul)
Shobar haathe boro glass
(Cheap booze in a big glass)
Baba bole chilo gaan koro tumi
(Baba told me to sing)
Bhule jao shob koshto
(And forget all my worries)
This is the beginning, I'm already winnin’
I'm just waiting at the crossroad
Paari naa
(I just can't)
Paari naa aami thakte
(I just can't)
R.A.P chara
(I can't live without RAP)
Nei aamar kono tara
(And I'm not in a hurry)
I said
Paari naa
(I just can't)
Paari naa aami thakte
(I just can't)
R.A.P chara
(I can't live without RAP)
Nei aamar kono tara
(And I'm not in a hurry)
(Chorus)
