ATAM GHANTTI GOENKAR

"ATAM GHANTTI GOEMKAR"
- Sung by Olga Vaz, Humbert, Cassy Alfonso & Prince Jacob
(From Cassy Alfonso's (London) audio cassette "Mog Mhaka Goemcho")


"Hea ghanttieanchem padd poddom; atam ghantti Goenkar" (Curse be upon these
ghanttis; now Goans are ghanttis!):

Legend: Olga = O; Humbert = H; Cassey = C; Prince Jacob = P

Dialog:
O: Oh darling! At last we’re in Goa!
C: Come, darling come! This is our motherland and this is our house.
O: Is this home? Such a big house!
C: Hello! Hello!
H: Yenna-appa – yella yista bangoddi?

Pandemonium ensues between home owners and two occupants (ghanttis) living
in the house.

O: What darling? What people?
C: Darling, don’t worry. Ami London-ak asta mhunnttoch amchea ghoran ami
tankam amchem ghor samballunk dovorleat.
O: Oh-h!

I
H: Yenda puta swamy, I’m come from Hubili
P: Panch vorsam Goeam ravli ani xinkili Konkani
H: Goencho lok ekdom bori, ghor dhita baddeani
P: Goenkar Goeam ietoch ravtat hotelanim

Chorus
O&C: Ar’re Bal Subramanim, sangtam Pillai Kutti
Longi tuji soddun, martam tujer mutti
P: Hem ghor ravonk dil’li, mummy tuji zantti
H: Hem ghor moddon poddleli, bandli ami vontti

O&C: Ar’re Bal Subramanim, sangtam Pillai Kutti
Longi tuji soddun, martam tujer mutti
P: Hem ghor ravonk dil’li, mummy tuji zantti
H: Hem ghor moddon poddleli, bandli ami vontti

II
C: Ghor echea paichem, tuka ravonk divchonam
P Hem ghor moddun poddleli, ami sarki kelam
O: Tor sang poixe kitle, bill kitlem zalam
H Serkarachi kaido asa, bhair soronk zainam

Chorus
O: Darling, I am waiting, what’s the darn telling you?
C: Ravonk ghor dhilelem, apnnem bandlam mhunntta new
O: Ghantti soglle tumi chor, amcho khatat jiv
P Ami Goeam ravun kaddttat Fenni ani Cashew

O: Darling, I am waiting, what’s the darn telling you?
C: Ravonk ghor dhilelem, apnnem bandlam mhunntta new
O: Ghantti soglle tumi chor, amcho khatat jiv
P Ami Goeam ravun kaddttat Fenni ani Cashew

III
H: Goemkar baili ganvan, ozaranim zoddttat
P: Zoddleli zodd tumi folganch marunk moddttat
O: Poixe korunk amkam zaitech tras poddtat
C: Amchem ghor chortuch tumkam borem dista

Chorus
H: Goenkar kitli uxear, ghalta soreachi bar
P: Ami ghantti Goeam ievn zali MP, Minister
H: Tumi folganch marunk urli, show Maruti ghevn car
O&C: Hea ghanttieanchem padd poddom, atam ghantti Goenkar

H: Goenkar kitli uxear, ghalta soreachi bar
P: Ami ghantti Goeam ievn zali MP, Minister
H: Tumi folganch marunk urli, show Maruti ghevn car
O&C: Hea ghanttieanchem padd poddom, ami ghantti Goenkar

Here again, pandemonium takes place between the owners and occupants.

Dialog:
H: Ghor amchi zali, ami ravta. Cholai, tumi London-ak cholai
C: Darling atam anik rosto nam; ami khuimcheai hotelan vochon ravomiea.
O: Oh no!!!

_______
A classic song sung by the one and only yesteryear Konkani stage
all rounder – Remmie Colaco. The song should serve as an inspiration to our
soccer players. It was recorded at a tiatro in Mapusa in 1978! In Goa,
‘soccer’ is known as ‘football’; hence, it is referred to as ‘football’ in
the song.

-------------
'Ramacanta Kamat' whose stage name was ‘Kamat de Assolna’ was one of the
finest yesteryear artists of the Konkani stage. He passed away in Miranda
Hospital in December 1987. He is survived by his wife, Muriel, and four
daughters - Indira, Maya, Bina and Milan, the youngest, who is stationed in
the United Kingdom. Ramacanta was one of the few Hindus who embraced the
Konkani stage which is mainly dominated by Christians. Many people were
under the impression that he was a convert but he was a Hindu and died a
Hindu. He was well-liked by the tiatro fraternity and was very popular with
the public. He gave us many memorable songs but he will be remembered by
generations for his masterpiece song “KONKANI ULOI KONKANI” in which he is
immortalized. Over the years, the song has not only become popular among
Goans in Goa and abroad but it has also become an inspiration to one and all
for learning the Konkani language.

In the olden days and until recently if a tiatro did not include a
“Konknneanchem kantar” it was as if something was missing; it had become
part and parcel of a tiatro. The following duet is a classic one which is
sung by Kamat de Assolna and the nightingale of the Konkani stage, Ms
Sharon, who dominated the stage in the 1980’s and 1990’s and stole the
hearts of Konkani audience! She is one of the first Konkani actresses who
began to sing on the stage with a mike in her hand.

NATALAMCHI TOEARI

NATALAMCHI TOEARI



Natalam laguim paulim, sezaream kamank laglim
Maim chol ami kamank lagom-iea
Ballok Jezu ieotolo, ghoran bhitor sortolo
Tor ghor amchem saf korum-iea
Kumsarakui vochon, saf korun ontoskorn
Jezuk amchea kallzan ghevum-iea
Pattleo amcheo chuki, bogos mhunnon magon
Fuddarak bore nicheu korum-iea.

Sarnam-vodde, bibik ani dodol
Cake hathan, neureo, bolinham, dol
Hem korunk kitleoxeoch vostu haddunk zai
Tea bhair narlacho kaddunk zai ros
Vellar ami khuim, khuim daumtelim
Atanch gheun dovrum-iea ek, ek vost
Sezareank adhar divum-iea ani tancho adhar ghevum-iea
Bogunk Natalamcho sontos

Natalam laguim paulim, sezaream kamank laglim
Maim chol ami kamank lagom-iea
Ballok Jezu ieotolo, ghoran bhitor sortolo
Tor ghor amchem saf korum-iea
Kumsarakui vochon, saf korun ontoskorn

Pattleo amcheo chuki, bogos mhunnon magon
Fuddarak bore nicheu korum-iea.

Uzvadd astolo gottean, karann Jezun haddlo
Uzvadd amchea jivitan

Natalam laguim paulim, sezaream kamank laglim
Maim chol ami kamank lagom-iea
Ballok Jezu ieotolo, ghoran bhitor sortolo
Tor ghor amchem saf korum-iea
Kumsarakui vochon, saf korun ontoskorn
Jezuk amchea kallzan ghevum-iea
Pattleo amcheo chuki, bogos mhunnon magon
Fuddarak bore nicheu korum-iea.
