Trigger Warning: suicidal thought


A saṃnyāsī has asked Subhadrā whom she loves, the way his maternal uncle's daughter loved him. In response, Subhadrā first names his elders, rhyming on the Marathi dative pronoun jayā - to whom, and finally reveals his assonant name, Vijaya!


This song set to Rāga Arabbī is an añjanīgīta, in which each verse has three rhyming lines and a shorter fourth line.


Song: Pāṇḍu Nṛpati Janaka Jayā

Singer-Actor: Bal Gandharva (Narayan Shripad Rajhans), Hirabai Badodekar, Malini Rajurkar

Musical Play: Saṃgīta Saubhadra (1882)

Lyricist: Balavant Pandurang (Annasaheb) Kirloskar

Music: Balavant Pandurang (Annasaheb) Kirloskar

Lyrics

पाण्डु नृपति जनक जया

माता कुन्ती यदुतनया

धर्म भीम बान्धव जया

नामें विजय जो

Pāṇḍu nṛpati janaka jayā

Mātā Kuntī Yadu-tanayā

Dharma Bhīma bāndhava jayā

Nāmeṃ Vijaya zo

To whom Pāṇḍu, lord of men, was father

Kuntī, daughter of Yadu, mother

To whom Dharma and Bhīma are brothers

Who by name is Vijaya


अर्पियलें या शरीरा

तया लोकधनुर्धरा

न फिरे जरि चराचरा

कण्ठ चिरियला

Arpiyaleṃ yā śarīrā

Tayā loka-dhanur-dharā

Na phire zari car'ācarā

Kaṇṭha ciriyalā

This body I've dedicated

To that world-class archer

If he doesn't travel the mobile and immobile

This neck's chopped

One more rendition, this time on stage. Although the singer-actress is uncredited, and various YouTube commentators cannot agree on her name, circumstantial evidence suggests that one commentator is correct: Subhadrā is played by Mugdha Latkar of Madanmohan Lohia Sanskritik Manch (founded by The New Education Society, Kolhapur), with Omkar Barve as Arjuna.

If anyone wasn't expecting Subhadrā to say the name Vijaya instead of Arjuna, just join the Mahabharat Katha private forum and then check the list of names.

This is great song but does not fit the theme. We’re only looking for songs that have first names or last names in them (see the examples I have posted in the first few posts).

Veer is an adjective describing the bravery of soldiers in this song and not a person’s name.

Same is the case with Ek pyar ka Naghma hai (Naghma is not a name but is the Hindi word for poetry in this context)

Please post songs that fit the theme

You are mistaken. I have no problems with your posting songs on this thread or anywhere else. As a mod and TM, I’m simply reminding you of rules.


Yes, I know Veer and Naghma are names of people but in the context of the songs you posted, they are not. If you had posted ‘Dharamveer ki jodi’ as the song for the name ‘Veer’ that would be perfectly acceptable.

For eg. Mera naam Raju gharana anaam- The character’s name is Raju. Also Mera naam hai Chameli. Another song you posted -Mera naam hai Jameela’ also fits this theme perfectly.


I hope that makes it clear.
