'Asato Ma Sadgamayah' - a Song from the Bengali Movie 'Khaad' (2014)

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.
