Today in my seond post in this series (for the first post, check out here), I am taking the song- 'Tumi arupo shwarupo shaguna nirguna' by the famous poet - Rajanikanta Sen.
Tumi arupo shwarupo shaguno
nirguno
Doyal bhoyaal Hari hey
Ami ki ba bujhi
Ami ki ba jaani
Ami keno bhebe mori hey.
Ki rupe eshechhi kemone ba
jaabo
Ta bhabiye keno jibono katabo
Tumi aaniyaachho tomarei paabo
Eo shudhu mone kori hey.
Na raakhi jotil nyayer
baarota
Bichaare bichaare baare
oshaarota
Ami jaani tumi amar e debota
Tai ami hride dhori hey
Tai bole daaki praan jaha
chaaye
Daakite daakite hridoyo
juraaye
Jokhono jey rupe praan bhore
jaaye
Tai dekhi praano bhori hey.
Here the poet expresses his salutations and absolute faith in the Almighty. He can be formless or He can take any form, (He can be Sagun or Nirgun), He can be gracious or strict, but He is the 'essence' of our whole existence. I especially like the last stanza where he says whenever I feel love for a certain form, I immerse in the that form to feel divine love. Such a great emotion!!!
Hinduism gives us this freedom to choose whatever form we wish to worship. Then the Lord blesses us so that we can have immovable faith in our chosen form.
I have listened the version sung by Krishna Chattopadhyay. Do check out her version from any video or audio App.
Jai Shri Krishna.
