My two short poems - which I recorded for radio

These are the two spots - as in my small poems which will be used as our department advertisements on all 5 radio channels of Gujarat.

Spot 1:

પશુ-પક્ષીઓ થઇ રહ્યા છે લુપ્ત ,
શિશિર ની ઠંડી જાણે પોતે જ થઇ રહી છે સુષુપ્ત ,
વર્તાશે અછત જળ , અનાજની જયારે થશે આજનો યુવા પુખ્ત ,
પર્યાવરણના વધતાં તાપમાન ની અસરો હવે રહી નથી ગુપ્ત!!!

Its about Global warming.. summary of these lines
Animals have become extinct ,
Climate is changing drastically ,
We will be facing shortage of water and food after some years..
And thus effect of global warming is now not hidden ..

My 2nd script for the radio recording...

ઉમંગને સંગે , ચાલો વાયુવેગે સૂર્યને આંબવાની કરીએ આસ,
ભાવિ પેઢી માટે વસુંધરાને બચાવીએ ખાસ,
ઊર્જાક્ષેત્રે સ્વાવલંબી બનવા કરવા પડશે અથાગ પ્રયત્નો - એવો થઇ ગયો છે આભાસ ,
ભૂલકાંઓને જ સક્ષમ બનાવી , ઉજ્જવળ ભાવિના કર્તા-હર્તા બનાવવા - એ જ છે અમારો પ્રયાસ!!!

These lines are written specially for the Bal Urja Rakshak Dal (BURD), which has around 50 thousand students and BURD deals with spreading awareness about Energy conservation among students with various creative programs. As our department deals with Renewable Energy..I have used words like the sun (Solar ) and wind ..
These lines say..
Let’s use solar energy and spread its importance enthusiastically,
And let’s save the earth for the young generation,
We have understood that we need to work hard to be self-sufficient in the field of Energy and so finding various non-conventional means,
Let’s teach the children about the same and so they can build their own future bright…
And that is our(BURD’s) mission …

Hureyyy!!!!

Hureyyy!!!!
Done with my radio recording and just came back to office with lots of great memories and one goodie –bag by 94.3 My FM-‘Jiyo Dil Se’ …
Now this recording will be given to all the 5 radio channels and they will broadcast it during their slots, everyday for almost one year.
Tomorrow I will be getting CD of the same with some music addition.
Now coming to my experience about the whole day..
Hmmm..What to say..I was pretty excited..Reached to the “Bhaskar House” (Divya Bhaskar publications’ office) with my two ma’ams ,where the person who is handling all sales and PR department came to receive us..
When you enter the building , first you see is the Indian map where the entire Divya Bhaskar network was marked. Then we headed towards the 3rd floor at My FM office, as expected the entry was having various posters and tag line ‘Jiyo Dil Se’ was written on walls..in all very nice colorful ambience.
We met the regional head and he explained us about various new things in Radio and how FM is having high impact in today’s world.
Then we were taken on quick tour of the whole radio station and they explained all technical stuff about radio broadcast. We saw the ‘on-air’ room , from where the RJ was doing the Live show. Then we went to the recording studio , where we met the head of that studio.
Woooooooohh!! Then the real show begun , I started recording the poem with that big mike and putting headphone ..

First 2-3 takes were not so good as I think I got li’l conscious and also to talk with all the emotions and that too in front of instruments and not people were li’l strange for me..but with lots of patience the sir over there helped me and then after 5-6 takes was done with my first poem which was on a serious note.
The second poem was on a lighter side , so I managed to do it well soon. It was a really funny situation to hear your own voice after recording is done.
After the recordings , they gave all of us one gift-hamper kinda bag with DVDs and key-chain and most importantly Ganeshji-idol of SidhhiVinayak .
When I am writing this constantly I am smiling…It’s the same feeling which I had when I first time met sachin tendulkar or I got admission into Nirma …
I may sound over-enthu or over –excited in this post ..the reason may be is that I got this opportunity totally unexpectedly ..
Whatever it is..I am happy…and I am enjoying every moment !!!!
Waiting for tomorrow, when I will be getting my poems with music :D

My poems are going to get my own voice-first radio recording!!

There are times where unexpectedly destiny bestows you with great surprises. last Thursday, on 9th September , we had an event in Ahmedabad , where we had to present planning for the year 2010-11 ‘s activities for our BURD program (Bal Urja Rakshak Dal) ,yes the same program for which I am contributing in website development. (http://burd.org.in/new/ ) , still lot more to do in this , but so far 1820 schools have registered through on-line registration portal.
On that day I had my presentation for the same web site and about the guidelines for registration. As my presentation was last, as and when I got time , I wrote certain lines and then in the break time, I was ready with 2 poems –short poems related to energy conservation and global warming.
I used those poems at the start and at the end of my presentation. All my office heads liked them very much. And then after the program got over, I got to know from our mass communication officer that my poems will be broadcast through our radio campaign for spreading awareness about energy conservation. And luckily all 5 radio channels ‘ Gujarat representatives were right there at the program , so they also liked the work and our Mass com head told me that If I can record them in my voice.
I was pleasantly shocked… I said yes I will !!!..
So,today I am going to the radio station ..for the first time..
I am pretty excited and also anxious a li’l bit…It’s the same feeling which I had when I first went on stage for my debate competition ..or for anchoring…or when I post my blog for the first time..
I will write about my experience once the recording is done..Hopefully all should go well…
Need your wishes..
