Today’s song is a rare Bhajan from the film Jai Hanuman-1948.

A few days back, I got a message from our friend Gajendra Khanna ji, along with this song. He suggested that I write a post on it. This song was given to him long ago by Suman Chaurasia ji who had got it from Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji. When I heard this song, I was very much impressed with its tune, music and melody. Since the song was in MP3 format, I requested Sadanand Kamath ji to upload this song, so that I could use it for my post. However, Sadanand ji found that this song was already posted recently by the Saregama company. He sent me its link.

Dua’a (A prayer)
——————————–

O Allah, we seek refuge in Allah from a knowledge that does not benefit
And from a heart that is not humble
And a soul that is satisfied
And from a dua’ that is not heard
O The Most Generous.
O Allah we ask you for beneficial knowledge
And good provision and deeds that are accepted
O The Most Merciful.
O Allah, make the best of our lives towards the end of it,
And the best deeds of our deeds the last ones,
And the best of our days the day we meet You,
While You are satisfied with us
O Lord of the worlds
O Allah we ask you for a pure life
And a good end,
And a return that is neither shameful nor disgraceful
O The Most Generous
Our Lord do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred,
Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us,
Our Lord and do not burden us with which we have no ability to bear,
And Pardon us
And pardon us
And forgive us and have mercy upon us,
You are our Protector
So give us victory over the disbelieving people
Our Lord, indeed we have believed
So forgive our sins
So forgive our sins, and protect us from the punishment of the fire,
O Lord of the worlds
O Allah make us of the patient ones
O Allah make us of the truthful ones
O Allah make us of the obedient ones
O Allah make us of those who spend(for the sake of Allah)
O Allah make us of those who seek forgiveness
Forgive all of our sins
Forgive all of our sins
The small and the big
The first and the last ones
Secret ones and the ones done publicly
Forgive what we have put forth and what we have sent behind
What we did in secret and what we did in public
And what You know better than us
You are the Expediter and the Delayer
There is no God but You
Our Lord, we ask you for faith that does not turn back
And a blessing that never ends
And a blessing that never ends
And a blessing that never ends

And the company of our beloved Muhammad(pbuh)
In the Highest Paradise
In the Highest Paradise
In the Highest Paradise
O the Lord of the worlds
Our Lord,
And our Creator
And our Provider
Indeed every night You free people from the hell fire
O Allah free our necks from the fire
O Allah free our necks from the fire
O Allah free our necks from the fire
And necks of our fathers and mothers from the fire
And necks of our fathers and mothers from the fire
And our wives and our offsprings from the fire
And our wives and our offsprings from the fire
And our brothers and sisters from the fire
And our brothers and sisters from the fire
O Lord of the worlds
O the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful,
O the Most Generous, The Beneficent Bestower of bounties
O The Most Kind, The Most Loving,
O The Most Compassionate, Merciful of the world
O You, whose mercy encompasses everything,
O Allah free our necks from the fire
O Allah free our necks from the fire
And necks of our fathers and mothers from the fire
And our wives and our offsprings from the fire
And our brothers and sisters from the fire
And all our Muslim men and Muslim women
And the believing men and believing women
(free them) By Your Mercy,
O The Most Merciful
Our Lord
Our Lord
And our creator
Your sevants besides us are many!
And we have no Lord but You to Whom we can invoke
And we stand between Your hands
O Allah, cleanse our hearts from hypocrisy
O Allah, cleanse our hearts from hatred
O Allah, cleanse our hearts from envy
O Allah, cleanse our hearts from pride
O Allah, do not leave us to ourselves even for the blink of an eye
Or even less than that
O the Alive, O the Everlasting
O the Alive, O the Everlasting
By your mercy, we seek help
Set right for us all our affairs
And do not abandon us to ourselves for the blinking of an eye(ie a moment)

A very Happy MAHASHIVRATRI to all our readers.

On this auspicious occasion, I am presenting a Shiv bhajan from the film Swami Vivekanand-1955.

There were two Hindi movies made on Swami ji. One was made and released in 1955 and the other was made in 1994 (released in 1998). There was also the movie The Light : Swami Vivekanand in 2013. It was made in Hindi, Bangla, Tamil and English. There were movies in Telugu and of course in Bangla also. Today’s film was made by Amar Mullick Production. It was produced by actress Bharati Devi (Amar Mullick’s wife) and Phani Mullick (Amar’s brother). The film was directed by Amar Mullick himself. The film was made simultaneously in Bangla and Hindi. All artistes were from Bengal. The Music Director was Rai Chand Boral.

When I first heard this song as a ‘caller-tune’ I was transported to the era of Rajshri Films and the songs of Ravindra Jain-Jaspal Singh, from the seventies and early eighties. Often in my online consultations especially with the patients from North India, I get to listen to this song or this caller tune, and it piqued my interest. I thought it as a ‘non-film’ bhajan. But on searching for it I came to know that it was a song from a recent film which is ‘Adipurush’ (2023).

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Kraanti-1981’. This was one of the biggest movies of our times when people like me were still growing up or had just entered their teens. I still vividly remember the summer of 1981 when we had watched this movie in the near-by city Akola (Maharashtra). This movie was passed by Censor Board on 28.01.1981. Unlike now, when movies are released simultaneously in all places, it would take two-three months for the movies to reach the theatres then.

Today’s song is from the film Mahapooja aka Shri Satyanarayan Katha-1954.

Marriage fixed, New House Entry, New Job, Promotion, Shravan Maas, any Happy event in life and we always celebrate by doing a ‘Satyanarayan Pooja’. It is one of the most popular and common pooja that is performed in all over India, except 2-3 states. Satyanarayan is NOT an Avatar of Lord Shri Vishnu. It is just another form of Vishnu.

Hullo Atuldom

As a youngster, I had heard a song which had the mukhda ending with ‘prem ka hum shree ganesh karein’. At that time I didn’t know what the phrase “shree ganesh karein” meant. As time passed, I learnt that it meant a new-start for any activity or venture by seeking the blessings of your God and elders. I know for sure that followers of Islam say “Bismillah” at similar situations. I think it is a very Indian practise. I know of students who used to write some holy symbols on top of every page of their answer sheets at the time of important examinations. ( I have heard that the various education boards have prohibited this recently, don’t know if this is being implemented. 🙂 )

Non-Film Songs of Mukesh – 03

Today, 22 July 2023 marks the birth centenary day of Mukesh Chand Mathur who was born in Delhi a hundred years ago.

His wiki page gives a fair information of his life and 36 years of film career which as we are all aware is mainly as a playback singer. In the initial part of his career he also acted, produced, and composed. However, his role as a playback singer put him high up on a pedestal as one of the greatest singers of all times. A singer whose very name brings to fond memories some of the exceptional songs that he rendered. A voice which touched the inner chords of human soul. A voice which we can easily associate and link to our daily lives. For sincerity, dedication and total submission to singing is what his voice is all about. Almost every song of his is a bhajan in my view as the voice was beyond the materialistic world and has one or the other facet of life covered. My song for this special post which we shall come up a bit later is a testimony to this view.
