HAYE WO MERIYA – Bishwanath and Group ║ BackPack Studio™ (Season 3) ║ Indian Folk Music – Rajasthan

This song describes the people as well as the nature of Kangra district in Himachal Pradesh. Most of the things that were close to the heart of the singer have either vanished or changed and realising this phenomenon of change bothers the singer. This song puts all his nostalgic feelings of pain into words that might touch the hearts of all individuals who might feel this way about their respective hometowns.

Lyrics –

Dharmi log pahad de, komal jinha de chitt
(Pahadi people are virtuous; they have a pure heart)

Hansde gale lag lende par dillo apne banayi lende mitt
(They’ll embrace you with a smile and will make you their friend)

Padre maidane jhilara pani haye wo mereya dildua o
(Just like a placid lake on a plain field is my heart!)

Seh angan seh angan rudhi gaye jitthu gittiyan kheliyaan
(The courtyard has vanished in which I used to play marbles)

Seh pippal bhaji gaye jitthu pinghan jhutiyaan
(The peepal tree has fallen where I used to swing)

Sehwan jali gaye jitthu dangre chaare
(The forest has burned where animals used to graze)
