Hello readers,
Only studying the syllabus is not only way of education. Seeing and understanding other forms of literature and learn from them is also one type of education. We see and we learn and the learning process doesn't need any text. We also learn from movies, songs, hymn, couplet etc. So let's see some song and understand what the song gives us a lesson and what it's want to tell us.
1】Mandir Me Murat Ki wo…
◆Lyrics of the song:-
Mandir me Murat ki wo pooja kis kam ki hai
Jab kisi apne ke ghar roti na sham ki hai.
Bhukhe logo ka koi dharm nahi hota hai
Unka bhi dil hota hai unka bhi dil rota hai
Aao ek kam kre…
O...O...O…
Aao ek kam kre…
Nayi sharuat kre Jaino ka man badhaye
Jinko jarurat ho hamari unke ham kam saye
Paiso ko chod ke ab ham apno ko gale lagay
Chod apne paraye…
O… O… O…
Chod apne paraye
Insaniyat dikhaye
Jinko jarurat ho hamari unke ham kam aapye
Paiso ke liye aaj ham apno se lad rahe hai
Fir jake mandiro me dan dharm kar rahe hai
Ye sab dikhava mana duniya me chal jayega
Marke prabhu se kese najare mila payega
Aao ek kam kare…
O… O… O…
Aao ek kam kre nayi sharuat kre Jaino ka man badhaye
Jinko jarurat ho hamari unke ham kam aaye paiso ko chod ke ab ham apno ko gale lagaye
Chod apne paraye…
O… O… O…
Chod apne paraye
Insaniyat dikhaye
Jinko jarurat ho hamari unke ham kam aapye
Jinko jarurat ho hamari unke ham kam aapye.
This is a bhajan. In the first reading, this hymn make me emotional. But it's not appropriate as student of literature, I have to think critically. In this song we can see that it's song for poor people who even can't afford their one time meal. Besically the song is tell to Jain people for doing help to poor people, but it's appropriate with other religion also.
We see that many અન્ધભક્ત are there in society, who believe in idolatry. They believe that god is in idols, but they forgot that god is everywhere. They don't need any shape or idol. They believe in worship that idol rather then doing help of needy people. But the thing is that What is the use of that worship in the temple when there is no bread for our some people to eat.
આપણે જોઈએ તો શિવરાત્રી માં ભગવાનની શિવલિંગ પર કેટલું દૂધ ચડાવવામાં આવે છે. એ દૂધ છેલ્લે જાય છે તો ગટરમાં જ ! પણ લોકો એ દૂધ ને કોઈ જરૂરિયાતમંદ ને આપતા નથી. આને માત્ર દૂધ નો બગાડ કર્યો જ કહેવાય. ભગવાન શિવ એ દૂધ પીવા કાઈ આવવાના નથી, તો યોગ્ય એ છે કે એ દૂધ કોઈ જરૂરિયાતમંદ ને મળે. પણ આ વાત આપણા લોકો ને સમજાતા હજી સદીઓ વઇ જાશે.
ભગવાન જગન્નાથ ને 36 ભાત ના ભોજન ધરો તો પણ જગન્નાથ એ જમવા આવવાના નથી. હનુમાનજી ને ગમે તેટલું તેલ ચડાવો એ કઈ પીવાના છે નહીં. તો આપડે એ જગ્યા એ બગાડ ન કરતા જેને એની જરૂર છે અમને આપીએ.
Next poet say that Hungry people have no religion. They also have a heart and their heart also hurts. Poet wanted to let us do a new starting for helping other people who need our help. We have to help him. Nowadays money is becoming more important rather than human being. So poet wants to tell us that stop running behind money and start to be with people. Here is fine lines,
Paiso ke liye aaj ham apno se lad rahe hai
Fir jake mandiro me dan dharm kar rahe hai
In this lines we see how the things are happening in our society. We are fighting with our near and dear one only for money. And then we are going to do donation in temple, masjid, gurudvara etc. How hypocritical people are !!!! This is what happened in whole India also ! We are pretending like we are developing country, but the development is increase in caste, com, class etc. In India people known by their caste and class. This is our biggest weakness. And this is the time that we have to be aware. This bhajan also suggest us that we have to help others who need our help, and do help without seeing any caste or class.
With the using of literary form like poetry, song, hymn the poet spread awareness through their work. So this all form also the source of information and also of knowledge.
2】Bhagvan hai kaha re tu...
◆Lyrics of the song:-
Hai suna ye poori dharti tu chalata hai
Meri bhi sun le araj mujhe ghar bulata hai
Bhagwan hai kahan re tu
Hey Khuda hai kahan re tu
Hai suna tu bhatke mann ko raah dikhata hai
Main bhi khoya hun mujhe ghar bulata hai
Bhagwan hai kahan re tu
Hey Khuda hai kahan re tu
Aa...
Main pooja karun ya namajein padhun
Ardaasein karun din rain
Na tu Mandir mile, na tu Girje mile
Tujhe dhoondein thake mere nain
Tujhe dhoondein thake mere nain
Tujhe dhoondein thake mere nain
Jo bhi rasmein hain wo saari main nibhata hoon
In karodon ki tarah main sar jhukata hoon
Bhagwan hai kahan re tu
Aye Khuda hai kahan re tu
Tere naam kayi, tere chehre kayi
Tujhe paane ki raahein kayi
Har raah chalaa par tu na mila
Tu kya chaahe main samjha nahin
Tu kya chaahe main samjha nahin
Tu kya chaahe main samjha nahin
Soche bin samjhe jatan karta hi jaata hun
Teri zid sar aankhon par rakh ke nibhata hun
Bhagwan hai kahan re tu
Aye Khuda hai kahan re tu
Hai suna ye poori dharti tu chalata hai
Meri bhi sun le araj mujhe ghar bulata hai
Bhagwan hai kahan re tu
Hey Khuda hai kahan re tu
Bhagwan hai kahan re tu
Hey Khuda hai kahan re tu.

This is the song of movie PK. This song is written by Swanand Kirkire and Shantanu Moitra and it's sung by Sonu Nigam.
In this song we also see a religious satire. People believe in many Gods and Goddesses. Not only in India in other countries people also believe in God and Goddess. But India is different one, who have lot many different Gods and each and every God have their own rules and methodes for worship.
In this song we can observe that god is best adviser, who can help us in our bad time (actually we remember gods and goddesses in our bad time only). So here worshiper pray to God for help to go to his home. He is disappeared in the earth, he wants to go back home. So he pray god and ask them to help him.
In India there are lot many regions. Like Hindu, Muslim, Jain, Shikh, Isai, etc. Also they have different methods for worshiping. They also have different rules and norms for worship. Their places are also known with different names. But the same thing in them is their devotion, faith, hope. Pk tried each way and he has hope that God can help him to go back home. He do everything which all religion person doing. But god is not listening him. So at last he realizes that there is no god who can help him to find what he want. The people are responsible for that.
So here we can understand that praising and worshiping god is not a way of doing the work. We have to work hard for what we want. And what we wanted is also receive by hard work. God can't help us in this type of situation. In this song we also see that pk is wearing rings of defferent gods, Rudraksha garland, and wear wreaths. But it isn't work. We see in our areas also that people wearing that type of wreaths and rings for praising god and goddesses. But it's only blindness. God don't want that type of rubbish things. They want that human being can be a human being !
So this is my interpretation of this bhajan and song.
Thank you! !
