My Ram Raghunath ....


- Gold bowl Ray-Nilesh Pandya

Mhara Ram Raghunath, Mhara Ram Raghunath,

So many grooms gave me, always get up and join hands.

Athuno to khetar dijyo, bichme dijyo nadi,

The housewife gave him a son and brought a buffalo.

My Ram Raghunath ...

Doi to mhane chhali dijyo, doi dijyo laradi,

Kali bhuri donu dijyo, ek banala bardi.

My Ram Raghunath ...

Ek to mhane halio dijyo, haal dijyo thadi,

Doi to mhane bell dijyo, bichme dijyo gaadi.

My Ram Raghunath ...

Bajre ri roti dijyo, upar sakkar ghee,

In addition to the doi dijyo, a lot of c.

My Ram Raghunath ...

In today's age, if God is pleased with human beings and asks them to ask for something, what will they ask for? What is the feeling if a citizen goes to the temple and expresses his desires to God? Oh god Give me a bungalow, a car, a servant, a farmhouse, Dom Dom Sahyabi. Now after the Coronation period we may all ask for health too! It will be very interesting to know what a village, uneducated or semi-educated man wanted from his Ishtadev fifty-one hundred years ago. If we look at our folk songs, village songs, we will know what was the demand-feeling of those people?

'Mhara Ram Raghunath ...' is a Rajasthani folk song. What blessing did any villager ask Lord Rama for? As soon as you see the list of things you ask for, your resourcefulness is respected. He says, O Ram! Hey Raghunath! I join hands with you every day, you bless me to get everything I need. First of all, give me a farm in the Athmani direction. Why only in Athmani direction? So go to the farm in the morning and return in the evening so as not to face the sun! Give a pond between the farms so that the problem of irrigation is also solved. Please give my wife a son and a buffalo so that the lineage of both of us can continue.

Also give me two goats and two ewes, one of them black and one brown so that I can make a blanket of both colors. If you give a field, you also need a plow and a kos. Otherwise what to do with farming? Runs a little without tools? Then give me two oxen and a cart! If you get all this but don't get bread, what's the point? So we need millet bread, sugar and ghee on it and it gets very cold in our country, so God has to give us two rugs too, that's all, I don't want anything else ...!

What a sensible demand? He did not ask for money, facilities, material things, but for hard-earned food. In this folk song, the morality of a rural Indian is felt to be overflowing.
