What is the meaning of Yako Yako Lyrics from The Rise Of Ashoka?
Pancham Jeeva’s voice captures the disbelief of a dream in reality. Poornachandra Tejaswi’s words paint the coffee cup scene. The ‘dum-taka’ beat represents the racing heartbeat.
Munjaane Maimuriyutta Baladha Maglal YeddiddeWaking up this morning, I stretched and turned to my right,
Kaapi Lota Kaiyal Hididhu Neene Yeduru Nintiddeand there you were, a coffee cup in hand, standing right before me.

Hingondu Rangaada Kansu KandeI once had such a colorful dream,
Tangaali Tampalle Nensikondeand I was lost in its cool, gentle breeze.
