Antakshari

Antakshari (अन्ताक्षरी)is a musical game played in India.

The word is derived from two Hindi (with Sanskrit origins) roots:

1. Ant (अन्त) meaning End.

2. Akshar (अक्षर) meaning letter of the alphabet.

The idea of the game is to post the first two lines of a song (usually from Bollywood movies, but any song will do here). The last letter of the last word is then used by the next poster using the lyrics of another song, starting with that letter.

For example:

1) To the tables down at Mory's

To the place where Louie dwells

The second poster follows with two lines of lyrics that begin with the letter "S"...

2) Sous les nuages de la nuit

je marche vers la clairière.

Then the next poster will follow with lyrics that begin with the letter "E". Make sense?

Deliver me, out of my sadness

Deliver me, from all of the madness

Yep!

Now's the time for stepping out of place

Get up on your feet and give account of your faith

Help I need somebody

Help not just anybody

Yeah New York

Yeah Manhattan

Never let 'em see you when you're breaking

Never let 'em see you when you fall

Love is lovelier the second time around

Much more comfortable with both feet on the ground

Did you sweep us far from your feet

Reset in stone this stark belief

Freedom's just another word

For nothing left to losE.

Everybody's intent on killing someone

The streets are closed and there's a kid on the run

Under the boardwalk, down by the sea,

Embrace, embrace the lonely, lonely life

Lonely days and nights

Smile though your heart is aching

Smile even though its breaking

Going to the chapel

And we're... gonna get married:D

Dream...dream, dream, dream

Dream.........when I want you in my arms

Summertime and the living is easy

Fish are jumping and the cotton is high

Hello Dolly well hello dolly

Its so nice to have you back where you belong

Go now....go now....go now

Before you see me cry

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as if there here to stay

Young, gifted and black

Oh how I long to know the truth

How do you do what you do to me

I wish I knew

What do you want

If you dont want money

Your so vain

Tomorrow he is arriving Home......e:sneaky::-5

Easy come easy go

Up down all around kiss and kiss

She may be the face

I cant forget

Tell him that yer never gonna leave him

Tell him that yer always gonna love him

More than the greatest love

The world has known

Nobodys child

Im nobodys child

Do do do

What you done,done,done before baby:D

Your just to good to be true

Cant take my eyes off of you............grrrr:-5:-5

Unforgettable... that's what you are;

Unforgettable, though near or far

Rain eyes that blur the rays of sunshine

When all you see is seen through tears
