The Song of the Free - Swami Vivekananda

The wounded snake its hood unfurls,
The flame stirred up doth blaze,
The desert air resounds the calls
Of heart-struck lion's rage.

The cloud puts forth it deluge strength
When lightning cleaves its breast,
When the soul is stirred to its in most depth
Great ones unfold their best.

Let eyes grow dim and heart grow faint,
And friendship fail and love betray,
Let Fate its hundred horrors send,
And clotted darkness block the way.

All nature wear one angry frown,
To crush you out - still know, my soul,
You are Divine. March on and on,
Nor right nor left but to the goal.

Nor angel I, nor man, nor brute,
Nor body, mind, nor he nor she,
The books do stop in wonder mute
To tell my nature; I am He.

Before the sun, the moon, the earth,
Before the stars or comets free,
Before e'en time has had its birth,
I was, I am, and I will be.

The beauteous earth, the glorious sun,
The calm sweet moon, the spangled sky,
Causation's law do make them run;
They live in bonds, in bonds they die.

And mind its mantle dreamy net
Cast o'er them all and holds them fast.
In warp and woof of thought are set,
Earth, hells, and heavens, or worst or best.

Know these are but the outer crust -
All space and time, all effect, cause.
I am beyond all sense, all thoughts,
The witness of the universe.

Not two nor many, 'tis but one,
And thus in me all me's I have;
I cannot hate, I cannot shun
Myself from me, I can but love.

From dreams awake, from bonds be free,
Be not afraid. This mystery,
My shadow, cannot frighten me,
Know once for all that I am He.

- written in 1895

Mera rang de basanti chola

Mera Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Rang De Rang De
Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Rang De Rang De
Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Mera Rang De

Nikle Hai Veer Jiya Le Yun Apna Seena Taane
Has Has Ke Jaan Loota Ne Azad Savera Laane
Marke Kaise Jeete Hai Is Duniya Ko Batlana
Tere Lal Chale Hai Maiye Ab Teri Laaj Bachane
Marke Kaise Jeete Hai Is Duniya Ko Batlana
Tere Lal Chale Hai Maiye Ab Teri Laaj Bachane
Azadi Ka Shola Banke Khoon Rago Mein Dola
Mera Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Rang De Rang De
Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De

Din Aaj Ka Bada Suhana Mausam Bhi Bada Sunehra
Hum Sar Pe Bhand Ke Aaye Balidano Ka Yeh Saehra
Betaab Hamare Dil Mein Ek Masti Si Chaayi Hai
Aaye Desh Alvida Tujhko Kehne Ki Gadi Aayi Hai
Mehke Gaye Teri Fiza Mein Hum Banke Hawa Ka Jhoka
Kismat Walo Ko Milta Aise Marne Ka Mauka
Nikli Hai Barat Saja Hai In Gulab Ka Dola
Mera Rang De
Mera Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Rang De Rang De
Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De
Mera Rang De Basanti Chola Rang De Rang De
Rang De Basanti Chola Maiye Rang De

Sarfaroshi ki tammna

Lyrics of an eternal patriotic poem...written by Ramprasad Bismil G.

सरफरोशी की तमन्ना अब हमारे िदल में है,
देखना है जोर िकतना बाजुए काितल में है ।

करता नहीं क्यों दुसरा कुछ बातचीत,
देखता हूँ मैं िजसे वो चुप तेरी महफिल मैं है ।

रहबर राहे मौहब्बत रह न जाना राह में
लज्जत-ऐ-सेहरा नवर्दी दूरिये-मंजिल में है ।

यों खड़ा मौकतल में कातल कह रहा है बार-बार
क्या तमन्ना-ए-शहादत भी िकसी के िदल में है ।

ऐ शहीदे-मुल्को-मिल्लत मैं तेरे ऊपर निसार
अब तेरी िहम्मत का चर्चा ग़ैर की महफिल में है ।

वक्त आने दे बता देंगे तुझे ऐ आसमां,
हम अभी से क्या बतायें क्या हमारे िदल में है ।

खींच कर लाई है सब को कत्ल होने की उम्मींद,
आिशकों का जमघट आज कूंचे-ऐ-काितल में है ।

सरफरोशी की तमन्ना अब हमारे दिल में है,
देखना है जोर कितना बाजुए कातिल में है ।

From Rang de Basanti (http://www.hindilyrix.com/)

hai liye hathiyaar dushman taak mein baitha udhar
aur hum taiyyaar hain seena liye apna idhar
khoon se khelenge holi gar vatan muskhil mein hai
sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
haath jin mein ho junoon katt te nahi talvaar se
sar jo uth jaate hain voh jhukte nahi lalkaar se
haath jin mein ho junoon katt te nahi talvaar se
sar jo uth jaate hain voh jhukte nahi lalkaar se
aur bhadkega jo shola-sa humaare dil mein hai
sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
hum to ghar se nikle hi the baandhkar sar pe qafan
chaahatein liin bhar liye lo bhar chale hain ye qadam
zindagi to apni mehmaan maut ki mehfil mein hai
sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai
dil mein tuufaanon ki toli aur nason mein inquilaab
hosh dushman ke udaa denge humein roko na aa
duur reh paaye jo humse dam kahaan manzil mein hai
sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamaare dil mein hai - 2
