Aa Laut Ke Aaja Mere Meet
Come, Return To Me My Love
Tujhe Mere Geet Bulate Hain
My Songs Are Calling Out To You
Mera Soona Padha Re Sangeet
My Music Is Barren/lonely/melodyless
Tujhe Mere Geet Bulate Hai
My Songs Are Calling Out To You
Aa Laut Ke Aaja Mere Meet
Come, Return To Me My Friend
Barse Gagan Mere Barse Nayan
The Sky/heaven Is Raining And So Are My Eyes
Dekho Tarse Hai Man Ab To Aaja
Look My Heart Is Full Of Compassion/longing, Come Now
Sheetal Pavan Yeh Lagaye Agan
Cool Breeze In The Air Is Making Me Ablaze
O Sajan Ab To Mukhada Dikha Ja
O Beloved, Now Make An Appearance
Toone Bhali Re Nibhai Preet
How Well Have You Kept Your Promises Of Love
Tujhe Mere Geet Bulate Hain
My Songs Are Calling Out To You
Aa Laut Ke Aaja Mere Meet
Come, Return To Me My Love
Ek Pal Hai Hasna Ek Pal Hai Rona
One Moment We Laugh, One Moment We Cry
Kaisa Hai Jeevan Ka Khela
What Sort Of A Game This Life Is
Ek Pal Hai Milna Ek Pal Bichhadna
One Mement We Meet, The Next We Separate
Duniya Hai Do Din Ka Mela
Life/world Is A Two Day Fair
Yeh Ghadi Na Jaye Beet
Let This Moment Not Pass
Tujhe Mere Geet Bulate Hain
My Songs Are Calling Out To You
Aa Laut Ke Aaja Mere Meet...
Come, Return To Me My Love
ABOUT RANI ROOPMATI AND SULTAN BAZ BAHADUR :-
Rani Rupmati, also spelt Roopmati, was a Hindu Rajput singer of Malwa. Sultan Baz Bahadur and Roopmati fell in love with each other and were married according to muslim and hindu rites.
Adham Khan was prompted to conquer Mandu partly due to Rupmati's beauty. When Adham Khan marched on the fort Baz Bahadur met him with his small force and was defeated, roopmati poisoned herself. Thus ending the magical love story which was steeped in music,poetry ,romance,war and death.
Rani Roopmati ,The Lady of the Lotus and her LOVE :-
Baz Bahadur, ever so fond of music, was the last independent ruler of Mandu. Once out hunting , Baz Bahadur chanced upon a shepherdess frolicking and singing with her friends. Smitten by both her enchanting beauty and her mellifluous voice, he begged Roopmati to accompany him to his capital. Roopmati agreed to go to Mandu on the condition that she would live in a palace within sight of her beloved and venerated river, Narmada. Thus was built the Rewa Kund at Mandu. Nowadays, their family members' are living in Indore.
The End of The Love Tale ;-
Unfortunately, the romance of this Muslim prince and Hindu shepherdess was doomed to failure. The great Mughal Akbar decided to invade Mandu and capture roopmati and baz bahadur. Akbar sent Adham Khan to capture Mandu and Baz bahadur went to challenge him with his small army. No match for the great Mughal army, Mandu was easily defeated fell.
Baz Bahadur fled to Chittorgarh to seek help. As Adham khan came to Mandu, was surprised by the beauty of roopmati and Rani Roopmati stoically poisoned herself to avoid capture. Thus ended this magical love story steeped in music, poetry and beauty.
Poems and Music of Rani Rupmati ;-
In 1599, Ahmad-ul-Umri Turkoman, who was in the service of Sharaf-ud-Din Mirza wrote the story of Rani Rupmati in Persian. He collected 26 poems of her and included them in his work. The original manuscript passed to his grandson Fulad Khan and his friend Mir Jafar Ali made a copy of the manuscript in 1653. Mir Jafar Alis copy ultimately passed to Mehbub Ali of Delhi and after his death in 1831 passed to a lady of Delhi. Jemadar Inayat Ali of Bhopal brought this manuscript from her to Agra. This manuscript later reached C.E. Luard and translated into English by L.M. Crump under the title, The Lady of the Lotus: Rupmati, Queen of Mandu: A Strange Tale of Faithfulness in 1926. This manuscript has a collection of twelve dohas, ten kavitas and three sawaiyas of Rupmati.
[Rewa kund and Rani Roopmati pavilion
Rani Rupmati Pavilion at Mandu
Rewa kund
The Rewa Kund is a reservoir built by Baz Bahadur at Mandu, equipped with an aqueduct to supply Roopmati's palace with water. Today, the site is revered as a holy spot. Baz Bahadur's Palace was constructed in the early 16th century, and is notable for its spacious courtyard fringed with halls, and high terraces which give a terrific view of the lovely surroundings. Rani Roopmati's Pavilion was built as an army observation post. It served a more romantic purpose as Roopmati's retreat. From this picturesque pavilion perched on a hilltop, the queen could gaze at her paramour's palace, and also at the Narmada flowing by, below., wikipedia
