00:00I'm so broken that I'll fall apart if you touch me
00:12Now if you pray any more, I will die
00:24Assalam Lekum and welcome back friends and their students
00:28In today's video we are going to learn
00:30With that a very famous Ghazal of Ghulam Likhan Saab
00:33I am so broken that I will fall apart with a single blow
00:36As you know we have started Raagamadhavanthi
00:40So this ghazal is also a Ragamadhavanti bestie
00:44If you want to learn the details of Ragamadavanthi
00:47So go to the description in the link of this video
00:51and you can see it in
00:53I have sung the entire Raagamadhavanti in detail.
00:55And I have included this ghazal also in it
00:58How these ghazals are interlinked with Raagamadhavanti
01:02so let's begin
01:03So if we start with this C sharp then
01:07So this is Raagamadhavanti, it is simple like this, these are its notes
01:20So these songs are closely similar in their beginnings, as I have told you earlier that Komal Maddham means pure Maddham and Komal Gandhar
01:28Both of these are generally used in this Raga whenever it is composed or sung.
01:35So let's begin, I'm so broken that I'll fall apart if you touch me
01:58Now if you pray any more I will die
02:19I'm so broken that I'll fall apart if you touch me
02:31I will fall apart
02:37So this is how you can say it simply, now I will try and play it very slowly and with one finger
02:43I'm so broken
02:49I'm so broken that I'll fall apart if I even touch you
03:15I'll be shattered and scattered
03:24So let's see how its scale would be
03:26The Sarga broke so much, measured but simple
03:36I measured my feet but my feet were simple
03:44This is simple from here, as I have told you in that tutorial.
03:48that sometime it seems that its resonance is quite grand
03:53a very famous melody
03:55We also call her Hindustani Sindhra and also Malti
03:58Indians know it by the name of Shivranjini as it is from Dasagare
04:05Dasapar Garesa, from here it sounds exactly like Raga Shivranjini, please check it again
04:14I will see this again
04:15All the gods are burning in the fields, I have a simple palm tree
04:21snake gare sabh nex
04:25Now Nex
04:29When Gar and Gapni Dadadh
04:35the two increase two
04:39The Madara Re Sadhapans
04:43nini dhapa nini dhapa magresa I will die
04:57So this is its parallel from here like this, who will you see
05:02Now if, now if, now if you make two more promises, I will die
05:26then this will be its equivalent
05:33I hope you understood this far Yogi
05:34So let's begin next
05:36Even in life, I am a traveler of your suffering
05:51Even in life, I am a traveler of your suffering
06:06Even in life, I am a traveler of your suffering
06:20So you can see that this is exactly Madavanti
06:27So, I will do it with one finger and also tell you a little about its scale
06:32I am a traveler in life too
06:43A simple dice with all the facilities
06:51Teri Kashti's Grandfather Sanidha Grandfather Sanidha Needha Pak
07:03So from here, simply like this, you can sing this billline.
07:08I am a traveler in life too to see again
07:22I am a traveler of your suffering in life too
07:36Wherever you meet me for your troubles, that is where you will find the solution
07:48I'll go wherever you tell me to
08:01I'll go wherever you tell me to
08:12Now if you pray any more, you will die
08:23I'm so broken that I'll fall apart if you touch me
08:35I hope you will understand
08:39So you can repeat this video again and again by rewinding it a little bit
08:42learn it line by line
08:44Learn one line first.
08:46then learn her next line
