Kandisa - Indian Ocean

Considered to be originators of fusion rock in India -- Susmit Sen, Asheem Chakravarty, Rahul Ram and Amit Kilam together formed Indian Ocean band in the 90s. Susmit's guitar and Amit's drums, when in sync, can't stop listening to it...simply awesome. Vocals for the group mostly rendered by Rahul Ram itself, also taking care of bass guitar. Unfortunately, Asheem passed away in 2009 due to cardiac arrest. To me Indian Ocean is any time...any where...love them!!! 


Kandisa is a prayer in ancient Aramaic, a 3000 year old Semitic language. Ancient Aramaic is the language that Jesus Christ spoke. A modern version of Aramaic is spoken even now in parts of Syria. Indian Ocean has transformed Kandisa into a superb song...


Kandisa Alahaye, Kandisa Hylsana,
Kandisa Alahaye, Kandisa Hylsana.
aalam aalam Aalam, Aamenu Aamen.
sliha Mar Yose, Almaduba-ha Qudisa-ha,
angene Dhanusa, Nyahveh Dukrana.

aalam aalam Aalam, Aamenu Aamen,
sliha Mar Yose, Almadbaha Qudisa-ha.
angene Dhanusa, Nyahveh Dukrana.
Kandisa Alaha, Kandisa Hylsana, Kandisa La Ma Yosa Isaraham Alem.
