Kailash Kher - Piya Ghar Aavenge

Just heard one of the most beautiful tracks ever - Piya Ghar Aavenge. From the album Chaandan Mein from Kailasa the band of Kailash Kher.
Below are the lyrics for the track, its a combination of hindi and Braj Bhasha (Hindustani during pre-independence days)

Chok puraavo Maati rangaavo Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Khabar sunaoon jo Khushi reh bataoon jo Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Eh ree sakhi mangal gao ree Dharti ambar sajaao ree Utregi aaj mere pi ki sawaari Har koi kaajal laao ree Mohe kaala teeka lagaao ree Unki chav se dikhu mai toh pyaari Lachhmi ji vaaro Nazar utaaro Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge

Rangon se rang mile Naye naye dhang khile Khushi aaj dvaar mere daale hai dera Peehu peehu papiha ratte Kuhu kuhu koyal jape Aangan aagan hai pariyon ne ghera Anhat naad Bajaao ree sab mil Aaj mere piya ghar aavenge (2)

oh oh oh he ri oh oh ho he ri he ri....

Anhat naad Bajaa ree sab mil (3)

The Baasuri towards the end is really nice touch.

The rest of the album is equally good. Kailasa keeps one upping itself with each successive album. One point of contention is they add a couple of tracks from an older album in each new album. Albela Saajan is also in the album Kailasa and Tere Naina is there in Jhoomo Re. But I guess with such high quality music can't complain listening to good music over and over again.
