Atul’s Song A Day- A choice collection of Hindi Film & Non-Film Songs

Jai Janani Jai Bharti

Posted on: August 20, 2011


In this blog, I often get farmaishes (requests) for songs to be discussed. Most of the songs are relatively well known songs and/or songs that are easy to find. The challenge in their case is to try and accomodate them in the blog within the limitation that one can only discuss a few songs in a day.

There are some cases when I get request for songs that are rare and not easily available. There have been cases when the farmaish sender mentioned that he/she was searching for the song for several decades !

Such songs naturally arouse my curiosity and I try to find these songs. and it gives me great creative satisfaction when I am able to locate these songs and discuss them in this blog. The happiness that it brings to the readers in general and the farmaish sender in particular is to be seen (read) to be believed.

One of our newer visitors Mr Mrs. roos ramdin has been looking for a song for more than 40 years. and he she gave the request for this song to me yesterday.

He She wrote :
…But Iam seaking for more than 40 years to a song, sung by Hemant Kumar from the movie BHAGWAT MAHIMA. The title is JAI JANANI JAI BHARATI, JAI JAI etc….Please, will you do me a great favor and try to find this song? Thank you very much..

I thought that this song should not be that difficult to find on YT, but it was. one can find a few other songs of this movie there but not this one.

Then I searched for this song in my collection, and there it was !

So here is this song, on the farmaish of Mrs. roos ramdin. The song is sung by Hemant Kumar. Saraswati Kumar Deepak is the lyricist. Music is composed by Hemant Kumar himself.


Song-Jai janani jai Bharti (Bhagwat Mahima) (1955) Singer-Hemant Kumar, Lyrics-Saraswati Kumar Deepak, MD-Hemant Kumar

Lyrics

Jai janani jai Bharti
Jai jai janani jai Bharti
Jai janani jai Bharti
Jai jai janani jai Bharti
Jai janani jai Bharti
Jai jai janani jai Bharti
Jai janani jai Bharti
Jai jai janani jai Bharti
jiske guru(??) kul sajaa rahe hain
sachche sukh ki aarti
jiske guru(?? ) kul sajaa rahe hain
sachche sukh ki aarti
ambar ?? kaali dharti
baarambaar pukaarti
Jai janani jai Bharti
Jai jai janani jai Bharti
Jai janani jai Bharti
Jai jai janani jai Bharti

isi chhaanh mein raah satya ki
sukh ka yahi praakash hai
sukh ka yahi praakash hai
haraa bichhauna prirthvi ka
oopar neela aakaash hai
oopar neela aakaash hai
samta mamta yahaan
sabhyata ka singaar sanwaarti
jai janani jai Bharti
jai jai janani jai Bharti
jai janani jai Bharti
jai jai janani jai Bharti

isi tapowan ke aangan mein
khel chuke Shri Ram hain
khel chuke Shri Ram hain
isi dhool par maakhan mishri
baant gaye Ghanshyaam hain
baant gaye Ghanshyaam hain
dharkar nar ka roop yahin
Bhagwaan bane hain saarthi
jai janani jai Bharti
jai jai janani jai Bharti
jai janani jai Bharti
jai jai janani jai Bharti

Dear Mr. Atul. What a wonderful present I got from you. The song I was looking for. I enjoyed it a lot, and I want to thank you very very much for the effords you made. But a little correction, I am not a Mr, but a Mrs. My name is Rosita Urmila Devi, I was born in Surinam, (South America), my father was from India.My home name is Roos (Rose).I was born under the Dutch rules, so I have the Dutch Nationality. But in my heart and vains runs only pure Indian blood. Many greetings from Amsterdam. Roos Ramdin

Thanks for your introduction. It is nice to know that you still maintain your links with the land of your ancestors. It was my pleasure to be able to discuss the song that you were looking for.

We all love to share our knowledge and information about the music from the golden era of Hindi music and I am sure that our collective knowledge will help make this blog a useful place for the music of this kind.

This song was “new” for me too. And I too enjoyed listening to this song.

Can you give me a similar present for my very old pending request of Kitna haseen mera piya hae allah by Mahendra Kapur and Kamal Barot from the film Sunehra Jaal?

This song does not seem to be available anywhere. I have many rare songs with me but not this one. The only way I can get this song is if someone sends me this song or the link to this song.

Atul,

“guru kul”, is the one word guru-kul, which was the ancient tradition of a sishya living with the the guru, and learning.

The second one sounds like “ambar daata, kaalee dhartee”; one has to figure out the poet’s intention here. baarambaar pukartee – does that mean call repeatedly? I am afraid my Hindi vocabulary doesn’t etend that far.

The refrain reminds me of a very popular telugu song (the phrases are 100% Sanskrit) penned by Devulapalli Krishna Sastry – which goes like

jaya jaya jaya priya bhaarata janayitree divya dhaatri
jaya jaya jaya Sata sahasra nara naaree hRdaya nEtri

jaya jaya jaya susyAmala sasya calaccElAncala
jaya vasanta kusumalatA charita lalita choorNakuntala
jaya madeeya hRdayASaya lAkshAruNa padayugaLA |jaya|

jaya diSAnta gata Sakunta divyagAna paritOshaNa
jaya gAyaka vaitALika gaLa viSAla pada viharaNa
jaya madeeya madhuragEya chumbita sundara charaNaa |jaya|

I found a bengali transcription of this song at a website! – http://www.vignanam.org/veda/jaya-jaya-jaya-priya-bharata-bengali.html
can’t correct any typos there! (I did in the above version)

हीरे के जैसा गाना।
मैं एक गाना / कविता ढूंढ रही हूं।
जय जननी जय भारती।
दानव कुल का कुल दीपक बन भोला जन्मा िशशु प्रहलाद
सत्याग्रह से दूर किया था िप्रेथ्वी पर फैला अपवाद।
़़़़़़़़
जय जननी जय भारती।
अभिमन्यू
चक्रव्यूह में िघर कर भी िजसने नहीं गवाया अपना धीर
ऐसे धीर वीर ही पथ पर खींचा करते अमिट लकीर।
याद मनाने भर से जिनकी नैनों में भर आता नीर।।
