This song of the Bengali film 'Khaad' has a beautiful lyrics, which says that the whole creation is there for me or for all of us. I loved the lyrics when I listened to it for the first time.
Though the song has some
mistakes like wrong rhythm while pronouncing 'Asato Ma Sat/...', and also it uses
only a part of the famous song 'Oi Mahashindhuro paar theke' by D L Roy, still,
the original part (lyrics) of the song is very very uplifting.
And about the music, the chanting
effect of 'Asato Ma Sadgamayah', as well as Arijit Singh's certain way of singing
has made this song very very unique. Specially the way he ends the song 'Holo
kaajer hisheb shaara'- the last part, wonderful!!
Very very nice and meaningful
song which reminds me of one song by Rabindranath Tagore- 'Jogote anondo joggne
amar nimontron'- same spirit has been represented by this song of 'Khaad'.
Here is the lyrics and the song-
Asato ma sad gamaya
Tamaso ma jyotir gamaya
Mrityor ma amritam gamaya
Shaanti Shaanti Om
Shaanti Om Shaanti Om Hari Om Tat Sat
Shaanti Om Shaanti Om Hari Om Tat Sat
Dekho aaloy aalo aakaash
Dekho aakaash taraay bhora
Dekho jaowaar pother paashe
Chhute haaowa paagol paara
Eto aanondo aayojon
Shobi britha aamay chhaara
Dhore thakuk aamar mutho
Dui chokhe thakuk dhaara
Elo shomoy raajar moto
Holo kaajer hisheb shaara
Bole aaye re chhute aaye re twora
Hetha naaiko mritty, naiko jora
Asato ma sad gamaya
Tamaso ma jyotir gamaya
Mrityor ma amritam gamaya
Shaanti Shaanti Om
Shaanti Om Shaanti Om Hari Om Tat Sat
Shaanti Om Shaanti Om Hari Om Tat Sat
Dekho aaloy aalo aakaash
Dekho aakaash taraay bhora
Dekho jaowaar pother paashe
Chhute haaowa paagol paara
Eto aanondo aayojon
Shobi britha aamay chhaara
Dhore thakuk aamar mutho
Dui chokhe thakuk dhaara
Elo shomoy raajar moto
Holo kaajer hisheb shaara.
Holo kaajer hisheb shaara.
