@shephard · 2018-09-12 16:18 · openmic

Hello, next week I am flying to India, so I want to play an Indian song for this weeks Open Mic. It is a bhajan made on the poem of Kabir, the beloved rebel saint of Varanasi, who lived there in 15th century. He was a weaver by occupation and mystic poet and Sufi.

This was one of the first Indian songs that I ever learned. I heard a version sung by Anoop Jalota and I loved it from the first moment. There are many different versions of this song in India.

I hope you will enjoy my version of it.

Lyrics:

Tan tambūrā tār man adbhuta hai yeh sāz Hari ke karte bajarā hari kī hai āwāz Tan ke tambūre meń do sāzoń ke tār bole Jaya sīyā rāma rāma, jaya rādhe śyām śyām

Ab to is tan ke mandir meń prabhu kā huā baserā Magan huā mana mera chūṭā janama janama kā pherā Man kī muralīyā meń sūr kā sṛńgār bole

Jaya sīyā rāma rāma, jaya rādhe śyām śyām Tan ke tambūre meń do sāzoń ke tār bole Jaya sīyā rāma rāma, jaya rādhe śyām śyām

Lagana lagī līlādhārī se jagīre jagamaga jyotī Rāma nāma hīrā pāyā śyāma nāma kā motī Pyāsī do ańkhiyoń meń, āńsuwo ke dhāra bole

Jaya sīyā rāma rāma, jaya rādhe śyām śyām Tan ke tambūre meń do sāzoń ke tār bole Jaya sīyā rāma rāma, jaya rādhe śyām śyām
