Born into a family of musicians with rich lineage and steeped in pedigree music, Bombay Jayashri Ramnath represents the fourth generation of music practitioners in her family. Jayashri has been groomed under the guidance of the legend Shri Lalgudi G Jayaraman and Smt T R Balamani. Jayashri, today not only bears the torch of the Lalgudi tradition, but has also evolved a distinct style of her own.
With a career extending over two decades, Jayashri is today among the most sought after Carnatic musicians. The myriad aficionados, spanning generations, that throng her concerts would bear ample testimony to this.
Her work has won her the acclaim of prestigious institutions in the form of prestigious awards such as the Sangeetha Choodamani and Nadabhooshanam.
Jayashri’s repertoire of meditative music and rare poetry are best experienced through her compositions in her albums. She has also composed music for dance ballets and documentaries. In this manner, Jayashri has deployed the essence of the classical idiom most effectively in her search for avenues beyond the concert format. More recently she has harnessed her skills towards composing music as a powerful catalyst in promoting our rich legacy in literature and other art forms which opens up new vistas for exploring her creative instincts. Her recent composition for the operatic ballet based on the Tamil Epic - 'Silapadhikaaram' is an example of this.
In her voyage as a cultural ambassador of India’ s rich heritage, Jayashri has performed extensively in India and abroad in the most prestigious fora, drawing critical acclaim wherever she performed. Jayashri has the rare privilege of being the first Carnatic classical performer in the Opera House in Durban and the Russian Opera House in Helsinki, Finland.
To say that her music is global would indeed be a truism. Her training in Hindustani Classical system has further helped her in this musical odyssey. Her researches into music are unending, and besides her musical performances, she continues to deliver workshops all over the world on the subject of World Music. Her contribution and involvement with schools where she has conducted workshops and interactive sessions to kindle interest amongst school children into our rich tradition of music is her way of giving back something of what she has gained. Her very limited foray into film music has won her the Flimfare award for the popular 'Vaseegara' that has drawn a new class of listeners into the world of classical music.
Jayashri represents the model emerging new generation musician India is proud of. A skillful blend of uncompromising adherence to the core tradition of classical carnatic music as well as a ceaseless quest for quality music in any form would best personify Jayashri.

Bombay Jayashri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
आज तो मेरा तन बदन
मैं प्यासी हूँ
मुझे भर ले अपनी बाहों में
ज़रा ज़रा बहकता है महकता है
आज तो मेरा तन बदन
मैं प्यासी हूँ
मुझे भर ले अपनी बाहों में
दूर कहीं ना जा
ये दूरी कहती है
पास मेरे आजा रे
Drop it
ज़रा ज़रा बहकता है
ज़रा ज़रा महकता है
ज़रा ज़रा बहकता है
यूँ ही बरस बरस काली घटा बरसे
हम यार भीग जाएँ इस चाहत की बारिश में
मेरी खुली खुली लटों को सुलझाए
तू अपनी उँगलियों से
मैं तो हूँ इसी ख्वाहिश में
सर्दी की रातों में
हम सोये रहें एक चादर में
हम दोनों तन्हाँ हो
ना कोई भी रहे इस घर में
ज़रा ज़रा बहकता है महकता है
आज तो मेरा तन बदन
मैं प्यासी हूँ
मुझे भर ले अपनी बाहों में
Drop it
ज़रा ज़रा बहकता है
ज़रा ज़रा महकता है
ज़रा ज़रा बहकता है
The song "Zara Zara" by Bombay Jayashri is a passionate and intimate love song about a woman's longing for her lover. The first verse has the singer expressing her desire to be held in her lover's arms, singing "Zara Zara bahakta hai, mahakta hai, aaj to mera tan badan, main pyaasi hoon, mujhe bhar le apni baahon mein" which means "Little by little I am swaying, I am being perfumed, my body craves to be quenched by yours, Enfold me in your arms." Throughout the song, the singer uses sensual imagery to describe her feelings, such as "my open tresses are caressed by the wind, you untangle them with your fingers, fulfilling my wish" and "we sleep in one blanket on winter nights, we both are alone, with no one else in this house."
The chorus "Zara Zara bahakta hai, mahakta hai" is repeated several times, adding to the sensuality of the song. The second verse talks about the rain falling heavily outside, but the couple is cozy and warm inside, wrapped in each other's arms.
Overall, "Zara Zara" is a romantic song that captures the feeling of intimacy and longing in a relationship.

My heart flutters and my soul fills with a sweet fragrance

we sleep under one blanket
हम दोनों तन्हाँ हो
we both are alone
ना कोई भी रहे इस घर में
there is no one else in this house
