This piece was kind of created on the fly (over the past 3 days) but maybe that's what makes it sick. The introduction is an original atmospheric composition by Ekaandhi and the sample used is a famous rendition of "Saanson ki Mala Pe" by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. The original "Saanson ki Mala Pe" is a bhajan by the legendary Meerabai (also known as "Meera"), a Hindu mystic and devoted follower of Krishna. Born a Rajput princess, Meera endured countless political upheavals, assassination attempts, and kidnappings. Throughout all of these trials she remained devoted to her Lord Krishna and his teachings of righteousness and love. Meera's love for her Lord often took the form of poetic recitations, public devotionals and dancing in ecstasy. Partly credited with helping shape the bhakti movement of today, she is revered for her devotion to God, her sacrifice for others, and disregard for material desires.
Pri would like to dedicate this song to brown girl brick squad, Nino the BPQ, and Keerat Kaur.
