This is a famous song of Hason Raja that Kobi Guru Rabindranath mentioned on his book ' The Religion of Man'. In my childhood, I have heard this song from a famous voice of Ujir Miah so many times, even I heard this song from Dilaram's voice who was once a renowned figure of " Hason Rajar Moromi Ganer Ashor ". I heard for the first time, this above  group performed this song nicely making a very good fusion of both Puthi-like-tune and Ujir Miah's tune. Anyway thanks to CryFor Cry for this song.

CFC-Thanks for the rare song of Hason Raja. I welcome the new style of singing by the artists in this video. But is it the original 'shur' of Hason Rajar Gaan ?? I am not sure. lalShapla UK.

I used to live in Sunam Gonj , Steamer Ghat (close to telephone exchange/howker market). Ujir Miah who was then very wellknown Hason Raja'r gan singer. He was famous radio/TV singer and the authority on the subject. In the year 1985/86 at a homely atmosphere we requested him and he sung that song without any instrument (was not available).---

The book I have is 'Jalalabader Sangskritik Oitijjya' writer Chowdhury Gulam Akbar.Page no.150/151 you can find this song.

thanks.

Part-2

I listened this song from a singer in Sunam Gonj town. But the tune was different from this version sung by DOHAR in here. I don't think it is available,yet in any recorded form. The Head-line of the song is ''momo aankhi hoitey poydha Asman aar Jamin''. I have got the full copy of it (printed,in a book). Thanks for contacting me. Keep in touch.Take care.

Hi pilau123

This is the song which made Hason Raja internationally famous ! The message of the song is highly philosophical. Robi Tagore mentioned this song in his Hibert Lecture in England And other philosophers quoted elsewhere'--. Because of the content of this is a bit contravarsial to our muslim society (It says-- even skies and earth created from 'ME' and also Allah & Rasul ---') , No singer would take the risk to upset the society, That's why it's a rare song. See next, part-2
