In a rare artistic endeavor that bridges continents, cultures, and centuries, Tumi Robe Nirobe, a timeless composition by Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, has been reimagined for the global stage. The song is being released by reputed U.S.label Bongo Boy Records. This soul-stirring rendition - interpreted with haunting intimacy by New Jersey-based vocalist Aninda Bose - is now being presented for GRAMMY® consideration under the category Best Global Music Performance (Outstanding Vocals).
Written and composed in 1895, Tumi Robe Nirobe ('You remain in silence') explores the metaphysical space between presence and absence - a contemplative ode to love, stillness, and spiritual connection. The piece is re-envisioned in a modern arrangement while staying rooted in its lyrical origin - a poignant echo of what Tagore may have envisioned when he wrote it over a century ago.
The release date is no coincidence - August 7, 2025, marks the anniversary of Tagore's passing, and this rendition serves as a humble yet powerful ode to his legacy. The song will be available for streaming and download worldwide across all major platforms. A music video will also accompany the launch and premiere on YouTube, visually interpreting the song's quiet emotional depth. It will also feature on select global radio stations, bringing this Eastern masterpiece to living rooms and headphones across continents.
'This is not just a song,' says Aninda Bose, 'but an attempt to imagine what Tagore may have dreamt - not just for Bengal, but for the world. It is music beyond borders, and emotion beyond language.'
