\"Yaad\" (Hindi for \"remember' or \"in memory\") is about the power of accepting the loss of a loved one and moving on. The lyrics celebrate the permanent impact they have on us, reiterating the belief that we carry them in our best memories, no matter how far apart we may be.
The music video is shot in between the snow-capped mountains of the Himalayas and urban India, the music video uses the bond between a man and a dog to highlight its message. The video will release on the 27th of March, 2020 along with the track.
In spirit of the message, Bloodywood has partnered with the Posh Foundation (a non-government, not-for-profit animal shelter and rescue organization) and using the profits made on the very successful debut tour of Europe named \"Raj Against the Machine\" in 2019, purchased an animal ambulance van for the organization. This van will potentially help save the lives of 27,000 homeless animals in the National Capital Region of India over the next 5 years.

Lyrics:
Do you remember?
When I said I would love you forever,
And you thought it would only last as long as we were together,
Fought the past in the past, lost, but it made me better,
Had to feel love to feel loss, yeah feel that now more than ever,
You're
Never gonna be lost,
Your fire burns beneath the frost, an
Empire built between my thoughts,
Crisscrossed across the line that
Can't be crossed,
A million memories in this melody singing to me,
Smile: this is the way it's meant to be
Hazaaro kaanto
Se bichi un raho (On a path riddled with a thousand thorns)
Mein tu hee akela
Sathiya (You were my only companion)
Har saas mein (With every breath)
Har haas mein (With every smile)
Dhadkan ki har awaaz mein (With every sound of the beating heart)
Jalta amar tera diya (Your undying fire burns ever-brighter)
Meri yaado mein (In my memories)
Meri baato mein (In the words I speak)
Tu jiyaa (You live on)
Teri aankho ki
ankahi chaah mein (within the unconditional love in your eyes)
khud se mila (I found myself)
I see your coming as a gift, not your leaving as a curse,
And even though it hurts it makes me feel like I'm one with the universe,
Steady and more than ready to ride,
you're the angel and my guide,
a part of the spark and the power inside
So I go on the attack and I'm gone,
Lil' look back for bit but I'm still moving on,
To a story on a canvas yet to be drawn,
Of a child of the night but I fight for the dawn
On and on, on and on and away,
Singing we may be gone, but what we have will always stay
Har saas mein (With every breath)
Har haas mein (With every smile)
Dhadkan ki har awaaz mein (With every sound of the beating heart)
Jalta amar tera diya (Your undying fire burns ever-brighter)
Meri yaado mein (In my memories)
Meri baato mein (In the words I speak)
Tu jiyaa (You live on)
Teri aankho ki
ankahi chaah mein (within the unconditional love in your eyes)
khud se mila (I found myself)
Hazaaro kaanto
Se bichi un raho (On a path riddled with a thousand thorns)
Mein tu hee akela
Sathiya (You were my only companion)
Do you remember?
When I said I would love you forever,
And you thought it would only last as long as we were together
(x2)
Har saas mein (With every breath)
Vishvaas mujhe (I still believe)
Apaari sagar mein bhi (Even in shoreless seas)
Tu paas mere (You're here with me)
Har saas mein (With every breath)
Har haas mein (With every smile)
Dhadkan ki har awaaz mein (With every sound of the beating heart)
Jalta amar tera diya (Your undying fire burns ever-brighter)
Meri yaado mein (In my memories)
Meri baato mein (In the words I speak)
Tu jiyaa (You live on)
Teri aankho ki
ankahi chaah mein (within the unconditional love in your eyes)
khud se mila (I found myself)
