(Click on CC for subtitles in Hindi) (भजन के बोल देखने के लिए CC पर क्लिक करें) A timeless composition by Kumar Gandharv, these verses by Kabir resonate our true self which is untouched by worldliness. Kabir refers to the world as a fleeting carnival that our life relishes for transient moments. Swan is a common imagery within the Indian traditions conveying a symbol for the human soul. The repetition of the phrase, 'It will fly away, the swan' proclaims a joy in freedom, as the soul leaves this world alone abandoning all material reverences. Liberation is a hidden constant in the poetries of Kabir. The way the breeze makes a broken leaf travel to unknown places, he states once the soul has left this human body, it's hard to get it again. These verses express realizing eminence in this body, which could aid us to stride towards liberation. The Murshidabadi Project is an acoustic Hindustani & Sufi band from Mumbai. Spearheaded by Soumyadeep Sikdar, the band shares a prominent repute reforming Sufi qawwali and Hindustani classical in the modern audience. Set to an Indian classical tune, listen to this mellifluous bhajan recorded at the Sang Kabir Music Festival, Jaipur. _______ Vocals- Soumyadeep Sikdar Tabla- Rupkumar Banerjee Sitar- Swetketu Banerjee Band- Murshidabadi Project ______ English translation of the song - It will fly alone, the swan This world, sight of a carnival Alike a leaf falling from a tree Meeting again is tough Know not, where it will fall Taken by a gust of wind When the age is completed when you lose ruling and following The messenger of death, very mighty I tangled with death itself Servant Kabir, sings the qualities of Hari I find no limit to him The doing of the master, the master goes by The doing of the disciple, the disciple --------------- Connect with us - Subscribe & Click the notification bell: https://www.youtube.com/rajasthankabiryatra Website: https://www.rajasthankabiryatra.org Donate us: http://www.rajasthankabiryatra.org/donate.php Follow us on Social Media – Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/rajasthankabiryatra Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rajasthankabiryatra Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/kabiryatra ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Sang Kabir" is a 2-day music festival, curated for seekers and travellers to embrace the enchanting world of Kabir.
