Lyrics of Konkani songs by the late JuJu 
- "SAUD" ani "MHAKA JIENK ZAI"! 
 
Jose Anastacio Fernandes, fondly known to all as “JuJu” from Benaulim, 
Salcete, Goa, was one of the finest saxophone players Goa produced.  It was a 
big shock to the tiatrist fraternity and Goa on the whole when he suddenly 
passed away last year.

Besides playing saxophone, Juju was an excellent singer.  He has 
produced his own cassettes as well as provided music for dozens of Konkani 
cassettes. 
The moment tiatrists knew that Juju was playing for them they would 
jump with joy because he would not only accompany them in their songs and 
play on the stage but they would also get to listen to some of his best pieces 
which he would exhibit during the intermission.  He liked music from his 
childhood and always had a penchant for the western music.  He won many awards 
for his musical talent; among them ‘Flying Film Production’ best musician for 
the year 2000, and GULAB award.  He was one of the few musicians who knew 
to read and write music notes - an art which has been on the decline over 
the years.

Here are the lyrics of two of JuJu’s songs – the first one “SAUD” talks 
about happy union of two hearts in the sacrament of matrimony in which 
he wishes all the best to the newly married couple.  
The second song “MHAKA JIENK ZAI” is a tragedy waiting to happen to a newly married couple.  I 
would sum it up by saying:  “Man proposes; God disposes!”  Both the 
songs are very touching and full of meaning and apply to our day-to-day life:
‘SAUD”

MHAKA JIENK ZAI

Sat vorsam mogan sarlelim, eka mekak tim patienaslim

Chorus
Ghov kallzan than mog kori bailecho, bailekui aplo ghov chodd mogacho

Chorus
Blood cancer mhunn bailek dotor gomoita, salvar zavpacho dubav dakoita

Moji asa titlii tum girestkai vhor, punn ghal mojer tuji doieall nodor
Moje baile passot Dhoniam mhaka jienk zai’
Moje baile passot Dhoniam mhaka jienk zai’
