Satyagraha Music Review [Salim-Sulaiman, Aadesh, Meet-Anjjan, Indian Ocean]

Like before.

• Prakash Jha is making a multistarrer on a socio-political subject.
• Music is taken from many composers.
• Aadesh Srivastava is one of them. So are Salim Sulaiman.
• One song is taken from something everyone remembers. Vande Mataram to Raghupati Raghav.
• There is one item number kinda thing.

Now, the things that don't come under these bullets.

First of all, accolades to Prasoon Joshi for writing magic throughout.

Hum Bhole The Hum Bhaale Hain Lyrics Translation [Satyagraha]

Hum Bhole the is a Rocking rock song composed and performed by Indian Ocean for Satyagraha. The impassioned lyrics of the song are written by the man with a spirited pen, Prasoon Joshi. As for the praise of the song, there are just four words to be said. Do Not Miss It.

Here are the lyrics of the song with Translation. Most of those available on the web until now are wrong. I've tried to get it as right as possible. Still, if there is anything missing, let us know.



Lo mashaalon ko jagaa daala kisee ne
Bhole the ab kar diyaa bhaala kisi ne..

Here, someone has burned the torches..
We were innocent, someone has made us a spear..

Aara ra ra Janta Rocks Satyagraha Lyrics Translation Explanations

Movie: Satyagraha
Music: Meet Bros Anjjan
Lyrics: Prasoon Joshi
Singers: Meet Bros Anjjan, Keerthi Sagathiya

In this song, Janta, Public is replaced by 'Janta Rocks' by the lyricist, but since it makes it difficult to write the meaning, the additional 'rocks' is removed from meanings.

O hilegi kursee dolegaa shaasan
Dag dag dag dag janta rocks
Ab baat karegee janta rocks
Jaag uthee hai janta rocks
Baat karegi jaag uthee..
Ab raaj karegee jantaa hoye..

The chair will stir, the regime will swing,
dag dag dag dag Public Rocks
Now the public will talk,
Now the public has woken up
Will talk, has woken up,
Now the public will rule..

Ras ke Bhare Tore Nain Saanwariya Lyrics Translation [Satyagraha]

Music: Aadesh Srivastava
Lyrics: Prasoon Joshi

[Saanwariya was used for Lord Krishna lovingly for his dark complexion, for detailed meaning, see THIS POST.]

Ras ke bhare tore nain saanwariya
Ras ke bhare tore nain..

Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram Lyrics, Translation, Explanation [Satyagraha]

Movie: Satyagraha
Music: Salim-Sulaiman, based on the actual Bhajan Raghupati Raghav
Lyrics: Prasoon Joshi
Singers: Rajiv Sundaresan, Shivam Pathak, Shweta Pandit

Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram
Patit paavan Seeta Ram

(Hail) Master of Raghu Family, Lord Raam,
(Hail) Seeta Raam who make even the fallen ones pure.

[The lines are important for, one, they're the lines of most favorite bhajan of Mahatma Gandhi, who began the system of Satyagraha (and coined the term), and here the protesters seem to follow his way, though partially. And two, the lines signify that the protesters are remembering their Gods and asking for Their support.]

Satyagraha.. Satyaagraha..

[For detailed Meaning of Satyagraha, see THIS POST]

Satyaagraha/ Satyagraha Meaning [सत्याग्रह]

Satyaagraha or Satyagraha was a term coined by Mahatma Gandhi for his unique way of fighting against injustice without being violent. As such the meaning of the word doesn't mention non-violence, still the term is used for non-violent methods of protesting.

Literally, Satyagraha is made of Satya and Aagraha, the former meaning Truth and the latter meaning Request. So the meaning is literally 'Request for Truth'. The aagraha here is also used as insistence, though usually it's not used to that effect, and hence Satyagraha is called Insistence for Truth.

Either way, the word is not just limited to request or insistence for Truth alone, but is used as a way of protesting against any injustice in an active but non-violent way.
