The so called band " MIRAGE "

Don't go by the name , it may be just temporary , but here it is , our own band "MIRAGE" , it started off with my friend apoorv always wanting to make a song like bc sutta ( if u have not heard it better listen to it , it music is amazing ), but I told him to make non- vulgar songs so that I can atleast tell my mom ( My mom's a classical singer and music enthusiast ) . After that he came up with some tunes but were incomplete , I was just a normal singer then ( trying to sing abhijeet sawant's songs and aiming for sonu nigam's :P) . Well after a dormant period I got my hands into guitar and the journey began , I along with my another friend Alok who had similar interests tried to explore the guitar world with aching and bleeding fingers . Then one day I started off with a simple arrpegios on guitar which attracted alok , we then came up with some 4 chords and that was it , something was coming up . Then another day ,I added few more chords at the beginning and came up with four lines of lyrics instantenously as if those words were crying to come out of my heart for so long , when we combined both the things it was amazing , then we really started working on it . Day and night we would add and try different combinations of chords and riffs to add to the feel . And as the chords went on , lyrics kept coming up . Finally it was time for a guitar solo , it was the most tiring of all , alok came up with a catchy riff and then we added to it to make a solo at an amateur level ( but whenever I listen to it I just love it ) .... AFTER lots and lots of editing and changes Finally we got our first song complete ... it took 4 months to make only this one song .. so we will never forget its making .
They say there's always a story behind every song , well its true , and this is the story behind our first song " Roko Ise ".

Second song : Kisine has a similar story but this time its apoorv who came up with a catchy theme , I wrote the first line of the song at that very moment when I heard the music . Earlier it was a disco type song but we later changed it into a band type song . I was amateurish during the first encounter as I hardly knew about guitar that time but this time I utilised my talent to the best .

Following are the lyrics of songs (though not yet complete ) which we made :-

Roko Ise..

Roko ise yeh jahaan me nahi…

Yeh zameen hi hain wo jahaan tera nishaan..(2)

Zindagi ki in raaho me kaatein sahi …

Magar chalte rehna hain yuhi humein…

Aaaa……..

…

Samjho ise yeh ishara hain wo ..

Yeh zamane ka koi bahana nahi..

Tu akela nahi zinadagi me yahaan..

Yahaan pe bhi logon ka tha karva..

Aaaa………

Ujala hain us or dekh tu zaraa ..

Andheri in raaho pe chalna nahi…

Yeh yakeen ho ke aankhon me aasoon nahi…

Muskurate hi rehna hain yuhi humein…

Aaaaaa…….

--Soham

Kisine..

Kisine naa jaana dil mera yeh begaana…

Kisine naa jaana dil mera yeh begaana…

Har taraf hain chahat nam hain kyun yeh afsana…

Doudti hain rahe na mile koi nazraana…

Kyun hain yeh betaabi..

Kaisi hain hulchul..

Na hamra koi aaj hain aur naaa….koi kal

Hai wohi nasha phir bhi yeh sitaam anjana

Dhundhli hain aakhen…mushkil ho raha chal pana

Kisine naa janaa …..

Badna to hain hi in uljhi raahon pe

Badna to hain hi in uljhi raahon pe

Humsafar na koi akela hi chalna hain

-- Soham and Apoorv

In palko…

In palko pe jo sapna..saja ke chala main…

Tha wo ek jhoota dilasa..zindagi ka…

Phir bhi main chala bhoola ke saara jahaan..(2)

He………………..

Wo lamhe zindagi ke zindagi se churake …

Sameta hain unko yaadon ke saharen…

Phir bhi/kyun na mila..wo sama pyaar ka(wo jaahan)…(2)

He………………

--Soham

Intezaar ( song.mp3)

Intezaar kar rahi phir wohi uljhin raahein

Mit gaya wo nishaan reh gayi kal ki yaadein

Dhundlin raaston par kho gaya tha kahin

Panchiyon ke sarike udd saka to nahi

Mil gaya wo jahaan mil gaye sapne

Udd chala befikar badalo ke paar ...

-- Soham & Alok

Alone ( bgift.mp3)

Alone ......

Bound in these chains again ,

They tore apart my dreams away

Trapped in this cage again

My wings ache to fly away

They strangled me

Wont let me free

Inflicted Pain upon my soul

Just becoz I am not the same

Born again ...(3)

- Soham and Alok

Sara Jahaan

Sara jahaan ruka hua kyun hain

Yeh zameen jal rahi kyun hain

Aasmaan dhua dhua kyun hain

Tharthara rahi yeh nadiyan

Aag ke pyale me jal raha ....( incomplete )

- Soham
