Sukoon 2015 (annual students cultural festival of University of Hyderabad) rock night was held on March 21, 2015 (Saturday) at our campus Open Dais.  On that rock night the main band was Kryptos (Bengaluru heavy metal band), besides the main band Amen M Imsong and the band from Assam & Nagaland also performed with their lively music talents.

As I often mention in my earlier posts Sukoon is an annual students cultural festival of University of Hyderabad, which is organised by Student's Union. In this year we were very fortunate that one of the famous Indian heavy metal bands from Bengaluru 'Kryptos'  had an awesome live concert in our campus Sukoon rock night. The concert was held at our University campus Open Dais on March 21, 2015 (Saturday Night).  Their performance, songs and music were more than words.

Bhargavi Pillai - A Telegu celeb singer

She does not need more introduction. A Telegu popular singer Bhargavi Pillai came to our University of Hyderabad campus annual students' festival called SUKOON 2015 on 20th March 2015 (Friday night). Her stage performance was good, her sexy voice, and her enthusiastic charisma were awesome. Though i didn't much understood her songs but i really liked the show. To commemorate her performance in our University fest - SUKOON 2015 let me post some of her live pictures here:

Based on my internet (google) search sources i came to know that she was one of the members of S5 (Indian pop band) formed in 2004, but after one year she started solo career in Telegu songs. I am glad that i saw her live performance in SUKOON 2015, it was worth to remember for me. Thanks to Bhargavi Pialli for coming to our campus (University of Hyderabad). We really enjoyed your show.

Mizo Good Friday Song: Tlang mawi tak chu a awm (There’s a hill lone and grey, in a land far away)

Many times especially when it came to Good Friday I often listen my all time favourite Mizo Good Friday song "Tlang mawi tak chu a awm" .  It is a nice song and its lyrics are very heart touching ones. Once i was told it's English lyric of this song, but i can't remember it for longer. Every time when i need to check out it's English lyric i have to search through google.com. So, to keep my time  let me bookmark here in both English and Mizo Tawng.

In English (words: Robert R. Carradine) :

There’s a hill lone and gray,
In a land far away,
In a country beyond the blue sea,
Where beneath that fair sky
Went a Man forth to die
For the world and for you and for me.

Oh, it bows down my heart,
And the teardrops will start,
When in mem’ry that gray hill I see;
For ’twas there on its side,
Jesus suffer’d and died
To redeem a poor sinner like me.

Behold! faint on the road,
'Neath a world’s heavy load,
Comes a thorn-crowned Man on the way!
With a cross He is bow’d,
But still on thro’ the crowd
He’s ascending that hill lone and gray.

Hark, I hear the dull blow
Of the hammer swung low,
They are nailing my Lord to the tree!
And the cross they upraise
While the multitude gaze
On the blest Lamb of dark Calvary!

How they mock Him in death,
To His last lab’ring breath,
While His friends sadly weep o’er the way!
But tho’ lonely and faint,
Still no word of complaint
Fell from Him on the hillock of gray.

In Mizo Tawng (translated by Luaia):

Tlang mawi tak chu a awm, ram hla takah chuanin,
Tuipui piah ram nuam takah chuanin;
A hming, Lu ruh hmunah, Lalpa chu a thi ta,
Kei leh nang leh khawvel tan a ni.

A tuarzia ka hriat in, ka mittui a tla thin,
Chu tlang chu ka thlir, eng lai pawh in;
Chu tlangah chuan Isuan a tuarin, a thi ta,
Kei anga sual chhandamna turin.


Lungngaia a kalin, kraws rit tak an puttir,
Hling lukhum an phiar chu khum chungin;
Kraws-ah an khengbet a, mipui ten an nuihsan,
Chu tlang mawi takah chuan an khai kang.

A lungngaih zia ka hria, Amah an phuar laiin,
Ka chhandamtu thingah an khengbet;
A kraws chu tungdingin, mipuite mithmuhin,
Kalvari tlangah chuan an khai kang.

Thimin a hmel a hliah, lungpui zawng zawng an khi,
Lungngaihna aw thang vel an hriat in;
Kan Lalpa aw a ni, thihna rapthlak tuarin,
Kan zaa sual chhandamna turin.
