Place to go if you want to ask someone identify raga, tala, composer etc or ask for sāhitya (lyrics) or notations or translations.

jAkE piyA na rAm baidEhi

Post by smala »

Just wanted to share another piercing soulful rendition from Veena Sahasrabuddhe.

This Tulsidas composition from Vinaya Patrika is said to be stated as response to the difficulties faced and expressed by Meera...

A helpful gist accompanies the text in Devnagiri on the following video, looking forward to any additional inputs...

jAke piya na rAm baidehi
so chAdiyE koti bairi sam yadyapi param sanEhI
tajyO pita prahlAd vibhishan bandhu bharat mahtArI
bali gurU tajyO kant brija bani tani bhayE muda mangalkArI
nAtE nEh rAm kO manIyat suhrida susEbya jahAnlO
anjan kahA Ankhi jEhi phutE bahutak kahO kahAlO
tulsi sO sab bhAti paramhita pujya prAnatE pyArO
jAso hOyE sanEha rAma pada aitO matO hamarO

Yes this song was written in a reply to meerabai's letter. And it is after these instructions that she left her royal house. If I am not mistaken, her letter was also in the form of a bhajan, I will search for it and post here.
