  • When I sang this song on my production floor...many people including the non bengalis also started humming...the bengalis joined me....in Hyderabad........

  • this song made our choire win in a competetion

  • @prashantnemani Yes. This is a truly legendary song in the Bengali folklore.

  • TYPICAL FOLK MUSIC FROM BENGAL.

    THOUGH I AM FROM SOUTH AND SETTLED IN MUMBAI SINCE CHILDHOOD, THIS SONG HAS REVIVED MEMORIES OF MY SCHOOLING DAYS IN THE EARLY 1970's WHEREIN THIS WAS TAUGHT TO US AS A REGIONAL SONG. I USED TO SING ONLY THE CHORUS PART (ie., HAI RE HAI, LOGON BHOI...) IN THE GROUP SINGING.

    THIS TUNE BY LATE SALIL DA WAS UTILIZED IN THE 1956 HINDI CLASSIC "AAWAZ"; BUT UNFORTUNATELY DELETED.

    BENGALI VERSION BY HEMANT DA SOUNDS SWEETER THAN THE HINDI VERSION,

    PRASHANT L. NEMANI.

  • @Musicpremik thanks for that. I got confused because there's a reference to "Bargi" somewhere in the song. For that I thought it may be a folk song from the mid 18th century when the marathas invaded bengal. The raiders were called "Bargi" by the local folk. Also there's an interesting legend relating to the origin of the "Chompa" flower and the Parul flower

  • @sharadowasdr: This song came out in the early 1950s in order to encourage the newly independent citizens into nation building, which was predominantly an agarian society at that time. This is one of Salil's better known gono-jagoron or mass-awakening songs. The song's mesmerizing melody is immortalized by Hemanto's magical voice. This song has been used as a backdrop in numerous folk dances. some are on Youtube.

  • What does the song represent exactly ? What is it supposed to mean ?

  • Thanks a ton for the upload, brings back old memories of innocent and unhurried days...
