"DIL DIYA HAI JAAN BHI DENGE AYE WATAN TERE LIYE" - Karma

<img src="http://images4.fotki.com/v48/photos/1/14022/59378/Flag_of_India-vi.gif" alt="" />

SUBHASH GHAI got the National Award presented to him by the President of India for making a Film which promoted Anti -Terrorism.

While some may disagree, I view the following two songs to fall in the genre of patriotic songs:

1) Rajinder Kishan's eternal paen to Mahatma Gandhi in 1948 (sung by a devotional Rafi):

Suno Suno Ae Duniyawallon,
Bapu Ki Yeh Amar Kahani
Woh Bapu Jo Pujya Hain Itna
Jitna Ganga Ma Ka Pani
Suno Suno...

2) Kaifi Azmi's words of pearl memorializing the legacy of Pandit Nehru (from the movie, "Naunihal," in the voice, full of pathos, of Rafi):

Meri Aawaz Suno
Pyar Ka Raaz Suno
Meri Aawaz Suno
Mein Ne Ik Phool Jo Seene Se Lagaa Rakha Tha
Uske Pardeh Mein Tumhe Dil Se Laga Rakha Tha
Tha Judaah Subse Mere Ishk Ka Andaaz Suno
Meri Aawaz Suno

Zindagi Bhar Mujhe Nafrat Si Rahi Ashkon Se
Mere Khwabon Ko Tum Ashkon Mein Dubote Kyon Ho
Jo Meri Tarah Jeete Hain, Kab Marte Hain
Marke Bhi Jaagte Rehtein Yeh, Jaanbaaz Suno
Meri Aawaz Suno

Kal Bhatakta Tha Mein Jin Rahon Mein Tanha Tanha
Kafile Kitne Mile Aaj Oonhin Rahon Mein
Aur Sab Nikle Mere Humdard, Humraaz Suno
Meri Awaaz Suno

Naunihal Aatein Hain, Arthi Ko Kinara Kar Lo
Main Jahan Tha, Inhe Jaana Hain Wahan Se Aage
Inhe Kaliyan Na Kahon, Hai Yeh Chaman Saaz Suno
Meri Aawaz Suno

Kyon Sawari Hain Yeh Chandan Ki Cheeta Mere Liye
Main Koi Jism Nahin Hoon Ke Jalaoge Muhje
Raakh Ke Saath Beekhar Jaonga Mein Is Duniya Mein
Tum Jahan Khaoge Thokar, Wahin Paaoge Mujhe
Har Kadam Par Hain Naye Mod Ka, Aawaz Suno

Meri Aawaz Suno, Pyar Ka Raaz Suno
Mein Ne Ik...

Is it the same Kavi Pradeep which has been referred earlier somewhere in post? Rather than uploading the songs, can you give more details so that it can bought and if it is not a personal "burned" CD.

Thanks for the information.

One more, from the movie Purab Aur Pashchim, stg. Manoj Kumar, Saira Banu. Picturised on Manoj Kumar and Bharti, sung by Mahender Kapoor..As usual, I do not remember all the words..

Dulhan challi O pehan challi
teen rang kee choli (guess reference here is to Indian flag )
bahon mein lahraaye Ganga Jamuna
dekh kay duniya doli

something something something...

and here is the heart of the song...

Desh prem he azaadi kee dulhaniya ka var hai
is albeli dulhaniya ka sindoor suhaag amar hai
mata hai Kasturba jaisee, babul Gandhi jaise
chacha jiskay Nehru, Shastri daray na dushman kaise
jiskay liye jawan baha saktay hain khoon kee ganga
aage peechay teen-on sena (all three armed forces of India)le kar chale tiranga (Indian flag)
sena chaltee hai le kar tiranga
Hon koi hum praant (province/state)ke vaasi, ho koi bhee bhasha bhashi
Sabse Pehle hain BHARATVASI ....

Does anyone remember the small film just like the video "Mile Sur Mera Tumhara" in which all the famous athletes of India at that time are running all over the country taking turns holding the Olympic torch.

In the end PT Usha is running with deer.
And all this with the song Chariots of Fire playing. I wish i could get hold of that as well!

Some one had left the aao bachon song incomplete:
Here is one part:

Aao bachon tumhe sikhaye jhaki Hindustan ki
is mitti se tilak karo ye dharti hai balidan ki

yeh hai mulk marathon ka yahan Shivaji dola tha
Mughalon ki takat ko isne talwaron pe tola tha
har parbat par aag lagi thi har parbat ekshola tha
boli har har Mahadev ki bachha bachha bola tha
Sher Shivaji ne rakhi thi laj hamari jaan ki
is mitti se---

Jaliyanwalah bagh yeh dekho yehi chali thi goliyan
yeh mat pucho kisne kheli yehan khoon ki holiyan
Ek taraf bandook-ki dhan dhan ek taraf thi goliyan
Marnewale bol rahe the inquilab ki boliyan
Yahan laga di behanon ne bhi baazi apni jaan ki
Is mitti se......

There is one on Rajputana, can some one fill it?

----
-----
-----
Kudh padi thi yahan hazaron Padminiyan angaron pe
bol rahi hai kan kan mein kurbani Rajastan ki
is mitti se--

Ye hai apna rajputana naaz jise talwaron pe
isne saara jeewan kaata barchi teer kataron pe
ye pratap ka watan pala hai azaadi ke naaron pe
kood padi thi yehan hazaaron padminian angaaron pe

The LoC songs are getting good reviews from the trade. Can anybody who has listened to the songs give us a "BR Review" ?

you can listen to them here
http://www.musicindiaonline.com/music/l/XX01000B1F

iirc ...

"is mitti se---" tilak karo yeh dharti hai balidan ki.

And the opening stanza is

"Aao bachon tumhe dikhaye jhaki Hindustan ki..."

I think national anthem was created by modifying this original song-

Sukh dukh chain ki barkha barse, Bharat Bhagya hai jaga
Panjab sindh gujrat maratha, Dravid Utkaal Banga
Chanchal sagar bindya himachal Geeta jamuna ganga

Sab mil kar hind pukaren, Jai aajad hind ke naare
Pyaara desh hamara

Suraj Ban ke jag pe chamke, Bharat naam tumhara, Bharat naam tumhara

Jai ho jai ho jai ho
Jai jai jai jai ho
Bharat naam tumhara

Shankar Mahadevan had recorded a song for Mukul Anand's Dus which was never released coz the producer-director passed away before the movie could be completed. Lyrics go like this...

Suno gaur se duniyawaalon
buri nazar na ham pe daalo
Suno gaur se duniyawaalon
buri nazar na ham pe daalo
chahe jitna zor lagaalo
sabse aage rahenge Hindustani!
Suno gaur se duniyawaalon
buri nazar na ham pe daalo
Suno gaur se duniyawaalon
buri nazar na ham pe daalo
chahe jitna zor lagaalo
sabse aage rahenge Hindustani!
humne kaha hai jo tum bhi kaho
humne kaha hai jo tum bhi kaho

aao hum mil jul ke
bole abto yaara
apna jahaan hai sabse pyaara
aao hum mil jul ke
bole abto yaara
apna jahaan hai sabse pyaara
humne kaha hai jo tum bhi kaho

jalte sharrare hain
paani ke dhaare hain
hum kaate, kathte nahin

jo vaada karte hain
karke nibhate hain
hum peeche hathte nahin

waqt, umar hai
josh hai aur jaan hai
na jhuke, na mite
desh to apni shaan hai
waqt, umar hai
josh hai aur jaan hai
na jhuke, na mite
desh to apni shaan hai
humne kaha jo tum bhi kaho
hey, suno gaur se duniya waalon
buri nazar na humpe daalo
chahe jitna zor lagaalo
sabse aage honge Himdustani!

subke dillo ko
mohabbat se baandhe jo
hum aisi zanjeer hai

unchi udaane hain unche iraade hain
hum kal ki tasveer hain

jo hume pyaar de
hum use yaar pyaar de
dosti ke liye
zindagi, apni vaar de
jo hume pyaar de
hum use yaar pyaar de
dosti ke liye
zindagi, apni vaar de
humne kaha hai jo
tum bhi kaho
yeah yea...

suno gaur se duniya waalon
buri nazar na humpe daalo
chahe jitna zor lagaalo
subse aage honge Hindustani!
Hindustani...

Its a foot tapping number & oozes life.

Somebody asked for details of Pandit Pradeep's CD. I sincerely appereciate the spirit.
The CD is tiltled 'The Genius of Pradeep' by RPG. If some patriotic guys buy this why should I need to post this to kazaa.

ok i dunno how many of you guys heard about Bharathi...some of his poems are/were very patriotic..ofcourse in Tamizh!!

His poems like...
Viduthalai Viduthalai...
Paaraukulle Nalla Naadu
Vandhe Mataram
Aduvome Pallu paduvome
Endru Thaniyum indha suthandhira
Vellaipani meedhu

Thai manne Vanakkm - a.r.rehman
Neerarum Kadalulutha - Namakkal Kavingar

And this is my all time fave,
thayin manikodi pareer
adhai thazndhu panindhu pugalndhida vareer

Incidentally, while trying to follow the Mush assassination attempt yesterday, I was watching PTV. In one of the short breaks, they played a 'patriotic song' of theirs. I was shocked that they had copied Pradeep's song Hum Laye Hain Toofan se Kashti Nikal Ke, Is Desh ko rakhnaa mere bachchon sambhal ke..' almost word to word. They only changed the words like 'desh' into 'mulk' and removed references to 'Bharat', 'Hind', 'Bapu' etc. The tune itself was identical to the original one by Hemant Kumar to the last note.

Is there no way to ensure that intellectual property is not blatantly stolen like this and that too by a Government?

Sridhar, they have also copied this song of Pradeep: "Sabarmati kay Sant".

In fact, they have made this into a very famous Paki song in praise of the "Quaid", and they sing it with the exact same tune. I was shocked to hear this on local Paki radio in the days leading up to Dec. 25.

<hr>
Added later:

The plagiarised Paki song is the first one on this page: ("Aee Quaid-e-Azam Tera Aehsan Hay")

link

jrj:

Thanks for pointing this out. It fills me with both rage and amusement at the same time. Why the rage is quite obvious - both the blatant plagiarism and also the conversion of a song extolling high moral values into one with a communal message.

Amusement because even in plagiarism, these sorry souls could not exhibit any creativity or originality. The central theme of every single paragraph of Pradeep's poem is lifted and converted/distorted to suit their purpose. Pradeep has a reference to Jawaharlal (in a stanza saying how the people from all walks of life gave up their lifes of comfort to follow Gandhiji in the struggle for independence). Jawaharlal is replaced by Quaid-e-Millat (Liaquat Ali Khan). And the same in other paragraphs.

My favourite one ... (in Bengali)

Muktir'o Mondir'o shopano tolay
Koto praan holo bolidan
Lekha achey osroo jolay ... ... ...

Another couple of bong songs I love are:

Durgom giri kantaar moru (Nazrul)

Book bedhe tui dara dekhi (Rabindranath)

I actually loved the 'Mera Bharat Mahan' series (I don't think that was the name, I am just calling them those) created at the fag end of Rajiv Gandhi's term.

1. The musical (no lyrics) piece with sportspersons doing a relay run with a torch.
2. Mile Sur Mera Tumhara in multiple languages with famous people from the worlds of art and sports from all over the country
3. Desh Raag (both versions)

Any idea if they are available anywhere on the net?

A great poem by Jai Shankar Prasad which was used in TV series chanakya.

http://www.anubhuti-hindi.org/gauravgram/prasad/himadri.htm

Could we have missed ...

Saare jaahan se accha
Hindustan hamara

That song "Himadri tung shring se ..." is originally from Jayshankar Prasad's famous drama "Chandragupta", so it was fitting that it was included in a serial on Chanakya.

Jayshankar Prasad's another drama "Skandagupta" also had a nice patriotic song.

Of all the Hindi poets, it is perhaps Ramdhari Singh Dinakar, whose poems stand out as very powerful expressions of patriotic vigour.

Dudes,
Never thought I'd post to this thread, but it seems like there is no thread on this forum that is not interesting.

Firstly, here's my idea of patriotic Indian _music_. Record the sound of an Agni II (or a Brahmos) lifting off, with a background chorus from Sukhois revving their engines. The finale of the music would be the boom of the Agni/Prithvi warhead (conventional or otherwise) exploding on the target .

I really liked the 'Mile Sur Mera..' song. The amazing part is that the song has lines from atleast 10 languages, perhaps more.I can recall the Hindi and Telugu lines:

Mile Sur Mera Tumhara, To sur bane hamAra
Sur ki nadiayaan, har disha mein,
Behke saagar mein mile
Badalon ka roop leke, barse halke halke
Mile sur mera tumhaara, to sur....

Next lines, I think are in Kashmiri...

(Telugu)
Naa swaramu, nee swaramu sangamai
Mana swaramuga avatharinche
(let your and my 'swara' mix and incarnate
as a combined swara)

If I get the full deal, I'll post it.

Srikumar

The song is called "Des mera".

My fav Bengali song. Dunno whether this is the right thread for it.
Download from here....

Ekla Cholo Re
Jodi tor daak shune keu na ashey

Ekla Cholo Ekla Cholo Ekla Cholo Ekla Cholo Re |

The favourite song of mine is Aaj himalay ki chotti se phir hamne lalkara hein..door haton..door haton.. Hindustan Hamara hein.., from the old movie Kismat.

Does any one have any Real Audio or MP3, of this song?

Hey Vicky,
Thanks a lot for bringing "Mera Karma Tu" to our attention. I owe you one . I had forgotten about it for 10 years now...until today I saw your post and searched frantically for it - now I cant get it off my player.

"dil diya hai jaan bhi denge ae watan tere liye" - Beautiful lyrics indeed!

http://www.musicindiaonline.com has some good collections on Indian patriotic music

Jahan Daal Daal par sone ki chiriyan karti hai basera. Woh Bharat Desh Hai mera.. from the movie Sikandar by Sohrab Modi.

I need full lyrics to this song. Who composed it, who sung it and who wrote the lyrics.

Here you are...http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~navin/india/songs/isongs/0/24_gif.html

And yesterday, I heard another ridiculous example of this.

Recall that lovely song by Pradeep - "Aao Bachon Tumhe Dikhayen Jhanki Hindustan Ki" from the movie Boot Polish. My all time fav song.

And then, the Pakis were singing to the exactly identical tune a ba$tardized version of their own, which went like this:
<img src="http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/ubb/icons/icon11.gif" alt="" />

JrJ, minor correction....that song is from the 1953 (?) Satyen Bose directed movie, "Jagriti."

In all three examples of plagiarization, songs that try to teach Indian children about universally desirable principles (peace, love, respect for all faiths etc.) are converted into Islamist, militarist songs for their ba$tardized versions. Shows what depths the Pakistanis sank to very early on and continue to be in.

Incidentally, the plagiarized version of Kavi Pradeep's 'Aao bacchon' (along with other plagiarized/distorted songs) are found here
http://daakar.netfirms.com/nationalsongs2.htm

Suryavir: it is from Jagriti, but the year was 1954

Subramanya Bharati composed some absolutely brilliant patriotic songs in Tamil that simultaneously celebrate high moral principles.

Suryavir and Sridhar, thanks for the heads-up on Jagriti ...

These lovely songs by Shri Pradeep touch me like nothing else that comes out of an audio speaker.

And it burns me up that the Pakis are shamelessly stealing all this heritage.

There was a lovely Haryanavi folk song to which the dancers were swinging this morning on Rajpath, 'Mera veera paltan mein jaa raha sai'. I thought it was brilliant.
