Remembering Pancham

Pancham – In Memoriam The way you waved your hands You never used a baton You always made those discreet movements To suggest a nuance here or an तान there And then the mischievous smile You were innovative You were creative You were so full of life Even in todays songs We find those places and exclaim यह देखो यहा है पंचम We still argue endlessly On how you broke the rules of music How the प सा from राह पे रहते है Was changed to सा मा I keep finding you everywhere You created sounds from everything In the sounds of flowing water In the sound of the bubbling soda Even slaps on the back The more I listen to you The more I keep on discovering you Thanks Pancham For all the happiness You brought us. It’s been 19 years But the pain and agony Still feels like it’s happened yesterday Boss, Saluting you on your exit.
