Maage Ubha Mangesh - Marathi Bhavgeet - unplugged
Maage Ubha Mangesh - Marath... Lyrics & Chords
Lyricist :Shanta Shelke
Singer :Asha Bhosle
Music Director :Hridayanath Mangeshkar
Movie :Mahananda (1984)
Lyrics:
मागे उभा मंगेश, पुढे उभा मंगेश
माझ्याकडे देव माझा पाहतो आहे
जटाजूट माथ्यावरी, चंद्रकला शिरी धरी
सर्पमाळ रुळे उरी
चिताभस्म सर्वांगास लिंपून राहे
जन्मजन्मांचा हा योगी, संसारी आनंद भोगी
विरागी की म्हणू भोगी
शैलसूतासंगे गंगा, मस्तकी वाहे
Ever since I heard this beautiful Shiva Bhajan, I was hooked. This beautiful Marathi Bhav-geet was originally sung by the versatile Asha Bhosle. The Lyrics were penned by gifted Marathi poetess and writer Late Shanta Shelke for which she received the Soor Singaar award.
The melodious tune created by Pt. Hridaynath is based on Raag Yaman.
The live version of this song rendered by Ashaji was just mind-blowing. The line “माझ्याकडे देव माझा पाहतो आहे” is the Life of this song. There are times when we feel life is not fair, but Somewhere, Our God is right with us, and He is watching us, and looking out for us.
I have tried to retain the original style with my own nuances and valiant attempt to achieve a complex Marathi-style BolTaan in the end. :-)
Many Thanks to Adwait Ranade for listening to my preliminary attempts and giving me his useful pointers on diction and nuances.
Please listen to my humble attempt and do drop in your valuable feedback.

Listening to it yet again….I think this bhajan is also rendered by Pt.Bhimsen Joshi….could be wrong.

Lovely rendition Sudha, not familiar with the original but sounds complex and tough. You have done a great job. Loved your open throated singing.
The alaap mid way through and the fast harkats towards the end could be improved.

said
Thanks Harshan, Max, Vidya, Sai and Kumar for listening and your lovely f/bs. Appreciate your time.
Harshan – I have not heard the Pt. Bhimsen Joshi rendition. Actually, in the movie – Lataji and Usha Mangeshkar sang this, but the popular one (more Yaman-like) is the one sung by Ashaji. Would love to hear other styles…
Kumar – Thanks. I know, this song was a challenge. I totally agree I need to do better. Need a lot more taan practice to do that last harkat…

Sudha,
Wonderful, divine, experience of Yaman in your splendid voice….
You have sung it so well and that too unplugged! Hats off!! As such it would not be fair to compare your work with the original of Ashaji. Appreciate your sincere hardwork on diction, too.
To my Fav’ with a Thumbs Up.
Looking forward for more……

Thank you so much Ramya, Unni, Srividhya, Ibolya, Srini, RK and Adwait for taking the time to listen this Saturday and your appreciative comments!
Srini – not sure I hear “Aahee” instead of “aahey” and others – listened to this a gazillion times b4 uploading. It could be my voice tone. Will keep in mind on how I open my mouth at that vowel… Thanks a lot for fav’ing, Srini.
Adwait – Thanks so much to you for your pointers. Marathi is not an easy language – and despite having learnt it I know diction is tough. I can only attempt this – Asha Tai’s original is in a different plane altogether.
Thanks all of you,
-Sudha

Harry Narain said
Very good singing. Good pitching….
A litttttttttle more solid control on the harkats is required…. I wd request you to pay attention each and every harkat however minor it may be. Over a period of time, you will get control without really paying attention….
Recording is very good… Very clear on my headphones….
I am only 3 months old here. Plz don’t mind… Cool right?
