Songs of Rajanikanta Sen (5)- Ami to Tomare Chahini Jibone
Today in the fifth part of the series, I am writing about another famous composition by Rajanikanta Sen, 'Ami to tomare chahini jibone.
Ami to Tomaare Chahini Jibone
Tumi obhaagaare cheyechho
Ami na daakite hridoyo
maajhaare
Nije eshe dekha diyechho
Chiro aadorer binimoye
shokha
Chiro obohelaa peyechho
Ami dure chhute jete du
haato poshaari
Dhore tene kole niyechho
Ami to tomare...
O pothe jeyo na fire esho
bole
Kaane kaane koto koyechho
Ami tobu chole gechhi
firaaye aanite
Paachhe paachhe chhute
giyechho
Ami to tomare...
Ei chiro oporadhi paatokir
bojha
Haanshi mukhe tumi boyechho
Amar nijo haate gora bipoder
maajhe
(Amaye) buke kore niye
royechho
Ami to tomare....
In this song, the poet says God's love is unconditional. He stays with us
always, protects us, guides us and accepts us each time whenever we move towards Him.
It is the Lord who does all our work taking away all the burden from us.
This song reminded me of two songs from Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan.
1. During the Setu Bandhan song, the lyrics are-
Har kaarajme, nij bhakton ka, haath bataa dete hain,
Haath bataa dete hain,
Baadhaaon ke saare patthar Raam hata dete hain,
Apne upar le kar unka bhaar ghataa dete hain.
2. And the other song is when Ravan attacks Vibhishan with Shakti astra and Shri Ram takes the blow of the fierce weapon upon Himself. The lyrics of that song are-
Nahi Raghuveer sa mitra koi
Nahi Prabhu sa pratipal
Mitro ke sankat sahe
Bankar unki dhaal
May our mind always dwell in the thoughts of the lotus feet of the Lord.
Jai Shri Krishna.

At first the most famous stuti of Hanumaanji by Tulsidasji- Hanumaan Chalisa
Next comes another great creation by Tulsidasji - Sankat Mochan Hanumaan Ashtak
And the most obvious reading of this pious day is the Sundarkand from Ramcharitmanas by Tulsidasji, where we find Hanumaanji crossing the ocean, meeting Mata Sita and returning to Shri Ram with the message from Mata Sita.

Songs of Rajanikanta Sen (4)- Paatoki Boliye Ki Go
Today in the fourth part of the series, I am writing the lyrics of the song- 'Paatoki boliye ki go, paaye thela bhalo hoy'.
Paatoki Boliye Ki Go
Paaye thela bhalo hoy
Tobe keno paapi taapi
Eto aasha kore roy
Korite dhulaakhela oboshaano
holo bela
Jara eshechhilo shaathe phele
gelo oshomoye
Tobe keno...
Harayiye laabhe mule
moronero shindhukule
Pothosraanto dehokhaani taaniyaa enechhi haaye
Jibone kokhono ami daakini
hridoyoshwaami
E odeene e odheene tyejibe ki
doyaamoy (tai)
Tobe keno...
In this song the poet asks the Lord to save him. He also realises that he has wasted his life in this world of Maya and at last has come to the Lord. He knows that the Lord will never refuse him, with this belief he has come to take refuge in the Lord. The last line- "E odeene e odheene tyejibe ki doyaamoy"- is wonderful!
I have heard the version of this song by Krishna Chattopadhyay and Chhabi Bondyopadhyay.
Do listen to this wonderful song :)
Jai Shri Krishna.

75th Independence Day- 15th August 2022- Bengali Songs Playlist
India celebrated its 75th Independence Day yesterday with great grandeur. Following the announcement by our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, our tricoloured national flag was displayed in the balcony, door or rooftop of many households. In the morning, the address to the nation by the Prime Minster was also a great inspiration for many of us.
On this occasion of Independence day, I thought to share some of the famous patriotic songs in Bengali:-
# Utho go Bharoto Lokkhi
# Dhano dhanya pushpo bhora
# Potitoddharini Gange
# Bharot amar Bharotborsho
# Bongo amar janani amar
# Mayer deowa mota kapor
# Bolo bolo bolo shobe
# Ek e shutre baandhiyachhi
# Vande Mataram
# Chol re chol shobe Bharotoshontaan
# Bharotborsho shurjer ek naam
# O amar desher maati
# Jodi tor daak shune keu na aashe
# Mukrito mondiro shopano tole
# Sharthoko jonomo amar
# Chhere dao reshmi churi Bonginaari
# Ganga Shindhu Narmada
- It will be a nice playlist reflecting patriotism.
Someday in future I will try to share Plylist of Hindi Patriotic Songs.
Vande Mataram!
