Several Homes in a Lifetime

Some people are shifting home, they seem to resettle themselves and they are gonna talk about this past in their future, they might be looking for a sense of identity in a state of dispersion.

Every effort to recreate the sense of being rooted at a milieu would nostalgically bring this place in their floating eyes.

We all get displaced and always feel a void within, that place has a permanent space in my existence where I lived my innocent childhood.

And this musical space is gonna be rose- fresh throuout the infinite lifetimes, and I'm walking with the luminosity of your love having realized that I'm on the meant path to be one with the heartbeats of the nature.

We create and keep in our mind several homes in a lifetime and each home has a parallel existence

I'm riding through cedars, oak trees and pines,
The pair of shoes of my motorbike is running down from the sole, it needs a service

I'll be in a darkness without you, even a huge mountain becomes invisible in darkness. Don't put your light away.

This flock of birds has brought your magical colors to my memory, I'll soon be back to my homeland.

It will be a gross mistake if one evaluated Negi just for the poignant songs he has written, sung and composed. He stands atop and beyond them all – A towering Adam-sized human being. His universal popularity and presence is bewildering. He is everywhere: In Uttarakhand agitation, taking out “prabhat pheris” i...

तुम्हारी उम्रों के पैर थके हुए नजर आते हैं कि वो चल रही हैं सफर अपना, और बहुत लाज़मी भी है बातों का उसी तरह घटित होना जैसा कि उनको होना है तुम्हारे वहाँ होने से जहाँ कि तुम हो भल...

Transcending Borders

Transcending Borders Narendra Singh Negi and the Ethos of Romanticism Narendra Singh Negi, a poetic voice resonating through the gorgeous valleys of the Uttarakhand Himalayas, exemplifies the Romantic sensibility in a manner that transcends mere physical landscapes. His songs and poems, much like the European Romantics and American Transcendentalists, echo a longing for transcendence; an existential wish to connect profoundly with nature, humanity, and the cosmos. What sets Negi apart is his use of the vernacular tongue, drawing from the everyday life of shepherds, grass reapers, and villagers, blending the simplicity of the life of hill folk with the profound depth of Romantic thought. Negi’s songs and poems, akin to the poetic expressions of Romantic poets like Wordsworth, Keats, and Robert Frost, reflect an unfathomable reverence for nature. His lyrics whole-heartedly celebrate the feelings of love with a deep exploration of the human condition. Yet, h...
