(Click on CC for subtitles in Hindi) (भजन के बोल देखने के लिए CC पर क्लिक करें) Celebrate the mystical poetry of the Bhakti Poets and immerse yourself in their entrancing lyrics with Kaluram Bamaniya from Malwa belt of Madhya Pradesh. Kaluram, the leader of the Bairaag Kabir Lok-Bhajan Mandal, was born from a family of singers who have been transmitting the enchantment of Kabir, Gorakhnath, and Meera's poetry in their voices for many generations. In his opinion, music is more than simply an art form; it is a way of life. This insightful composition portrays the dilemma of the poet who is unsure of pouring his heart out to others. His thoughts are different and parallel to what the world thinks. How will he align his feelings with the rest!? He describes what he sees but the others believe in the written word. He wishes to come out of the chaos and others are just entangled in the chaotic world. He believes in the awareness of mind but others are still in deep slumber. He asks others not to be greedy but they are still busy in their materialistic pleasures. The poet says that the Guru’s grace is flowing gently, his body reflects his wisdom and we must wash our ignorance and sinful nature in it. Saint Kabir says that if we succeed in gaining Guru’s guidance, we can lead a meaningful life. Listen to this beautiful Bhajan in the melodious voice of Kaluram Bamaniya. __________ Vocal & Music- Kaluram Bamaniya & Group __________ English translation of the song - O crow, eat all of this body Bit and bit of my flesh Just leave away these two eyes I Still hope to witness my beloved Meera drank the cup of poison Gripping the thread of Raam’s name Got across this world A cup of poison sent the Raana Laid it on Meera's hands She drank, knowing as the lord’s nectar You know the rest, O Gopal! A casket of snakes sent the Raana Handed it to Meera When opened up the casket, Finds out a bejeweled necklace A casket of scorpions sent the Raana Laid it on Meera's hands When opened up the casket Turns out a divine stone of Shaligram I plea joining my hands Do listen, O my fate maker! Meera met his Girdhar, the mountain holder She prospered after all Translation by Shreyans Dugar --------------- 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.
