The BombayBaroque project initially features Bollywood classic
songs sung by Robert Crowe, a Western opera singer. The music is
arranged and performed by Indigo Masala, and the accompanying
Youtube videos are films by Martin Maeder, a Swiss artist.
Our next stage is to take Baroque opera arias and create a more Indian
flavor.

Daiya Daiya - Compassion Compassion:
|
My lover, I fell in love with you; |
|
I quietly declared myself with my eyes. |
|
How can I meet your gaze? How can I meet it? |
|
I've started to feel shy. |
|
If you don't look, how can I save you? |
|
My soul is pulling away from its moorings. |
|
It will overflow in desire for you.
These wretched anklets don't obey me. |
|
Restlessness has started to torment me; |
|
love has pierced me to the core. |
|
I pass my days by saying your name; |
|
the nights pass tossing and turning. |
|
I always think of you now. |
|
Your words are filled with mischief. |
|
In love, desire becomes a flame |
|
and it flares up on my lips. |
|
You're totally crazy; how can I assuage your madness? |
|
My heart will pound right out of my chest! |
|
I looked upon you and I desired you. |
|
My lover, I fell in love with you.
