#MellowMusic Hits: Savera by Iqlipse Nova and Anubha Bajaj

"Savera" by Iqlipse Nova and Anubha Bajaj, released under Sony Music India, encapsulates the blend of indie pop and heartfelt storytelling. This track delves into the theme of finding light and hope through a special person. The song isn’t just about love but highlights the irreplaceable role one person can play in our lives, bringing clarity and warmth.

The lyrics of "Savera" explore this deep connection and the emotions tied to it. "Dhoondha hazaaron mein kayi sitaare mein" (Searched among thousands, in many stars) introduces us to the protagonist's relentless search for someone unique. This quest is universal, touching on the human desire to find that one person who stands out among the rest.

The recurring line, "Tu hi savera, hai kyun andhera?" (You are the morning, why is there darkness?), juxtaposes light and dark, highlighting the beloved’s role as a beacon in the narrator's life. This contrast underscores the transformative impact of this person, turning night into day and despair into hope.

Musically, the song combines gentle guitar strumming with soft percussion, creating a soothing yet evocative atmosphere. Anubha’s vocals, paired with Iqlipse’s emotional delivery, bring out the raw sentiment in the lyrics. The minimalist production allows the emotional weight of the lyrics to take center stage, enhancing the listening experience.

In an interview, Iqlipse and Anubha shed light on their creative process. Their collaboration was spontaneous. Iqlipse discovered Anubha on Instagram, and after a live session, they decided to create together. After hours of jamming with no success, a melody emerged just as they were about to give up. This serendipitous moment is reflected in the song’s organic and heartfelt nature.

"Karaan main tujhse bahaane koi bhi na yeh jaane" (I make excuses to talk to you, no one else knows) speaks to the intimacy of the connection between the protagonists. It captures the essence of secret conversations and shared moments that define a deep relationship. This line emphasizes the personal and private bond they share, which forms the foundation of the song.

Another significant line, "Hoon main andheron mein, tujhmein savera paun" (I am in the darkness, in you, I find the morning), highlights the dichotomy of presence and absence. It reflects how the beloved brings light into the narrator's darkest times, illustrating the healing power of love. This sentiment resonates deeply, as it touches on the comfort and solace found in a significant other.

Anubha’s personal journey in music, starting from learning instruments as a child to formal training in guitar and piano, has shaped her artistic identity. Iqlipse’s path, marked by initial struggles and eventual viral success, reflects the perseverance needed to thrive in the indie music scene. These individual experiences enrich "Savera," adding layers of authenticity and emotion to the track.

The song’s success has motivated both artists to continue creating. Anubha, inspired by the positive reception, is working on new projects, while Iqlipse is gearing up for multiple releases, including collaborations and solo tracks. Their dedication to their craft is evident in the quality of "Savera," a testament to their growth and passion.

"Savera" is a poignant exploration of love, hope, and renewal. It captures the essence of finding that one person who can dispel darkness and bring light into our lives. The heartfelt lyrics, combined with the evocative music and the genuine collaboration between Iqlipse Nova and Anubha Bajaj, make this track a standout in the indie pop genre. It’s a reminder of the power of connection and the beauty of finding light in the darkest moments.

Lyrics & Meaning:

Dhoondha hazaaron mein Searched among thousands
Kayi sitaare mein In many stars
Hai tere jaisa na koi There's no one like you

Tu hi toh lakhon mein You are the one in millions
Jaise kitaabon mein Like in books
Koi kahaani ho nayee A story that is new

Karoon main tujhse bahaane I make excuses to talk to you
Koi bhi na yeh jaane No one else knows
Hai tujhko khabar ya nahi? Do you know or not?

Yeh jo raaste hain saare All these paths
Hain tere hi sahaare Are supported by you
Kya tum yeh jaanon ya nahi? Do you know this or not?

Baatein yeh saari main tumse hi karna chaahun All these things I only want to tell you
Teri nadaaniyon se main pigal hi jaaun I melt by your innocence
Khoyi si rahein kyun? Tumse hi milna chaahun Why are the paths lost? I just want to meet you
Hoon main andheron mein, tujhmein savera paun I am in darkness, in you, I find the morning

Tu hi savera You are the morning
Hai kyun andhera? Why is there darkness?
Tu hi savera You are the morning

Kya tu bhi soche mere baare mein? Do you also think about me?
Kehde na aake yoon Come and tell me
Ishaaron hi ishaaron mein In gestures
Nazrein chura ke jaana Hiding your eyes, leaving

Chhodun main jannatein I would leave heaven
Jo tu nahi aaye wahan pe If you don't come there
Tu hi faryaad mein You are in my prayers
Tu yaad mein, jaaun kahan? In my memories, where should I go?

Tu subah, meri shaam tu You are the morning, my evening is you
Jo khoya, mera naam tu What was lost, my name is you
Main tera tha, tera rahoon I was yours, let me stay yours
Na jaane kaise yeh kahoon I don't know how to say this

Jo roothe tu, jaana kahin na If you are upset, don't go anywhere
Tere siwa koi na No one but you
Kaise main tujhse yeh kahoon? How do I tell you this?

Tu hi savera, hai kyun andhera? You are the morning, why is there darkness?
Tu hi savera You are the morning
