Hum Katha Sunate Lyrics English (Meaning) – Ramayan (1987)
Om shree maha Ganadhipatey namah
Om shree umamaheshawarabhya namah
Om salutations the great chief of Ganas
Om Salutations to Uma Maheswara
Vaalmiki gurudeva ne Kar pankaj teer naam
Sumire maat saraswati Hum par ho khud sawaar
Maat peeta ki vandana Karte baaram baar
Gurujan raaja praja Jan naman karo svikaar
Hum katha sunate Ram sakal gundham ki
Hum katha sunate Ram sakal gundham ki
The Guru Valmiki has made your name in to a lotus flower,
The mother SAraswathi with a rosary should bless us,
After again and again saluting the mother and father ,
After requesting elders , king, people to accept my salutations ,
We would now make you hear the Story of Ram who is treasure of all good qualities,
We would now make you hear the Story of Ram who is treasure of all good qualities,
Yeh ramayan hai Punya katha shrii ram ki
Jambu dweepebharat khande Aryavarte bharat varshe
Ek nagari hai vikyat ayodhya naam ki Yehi janma bhoomi hai
Param pujya shrii ram ki…
Hum katha sunate Ram sakal gun dham ki
Yeh ramayan hai Punya katha shrii ram ki……
Yeh ramayan hai Punya katha shrii ram ki
This is Ramayan the holy story of Sri Rama,
In the Jambu dweep is Bharat Kanda called Arya Vartha and Bharat Varsha,
And in that there is a famous town whose name is Ayodhya ,
Which is the birth place of the most worshipful Ram,
We would now make you hear the Story of Ram who is treasure of all good qualities,
And this is Ramayana which is the holy story of Ram,
And this is Ramayana which is the holy story of Ram
Raghukul ke raja dharmatma , Chakravarti dashrath punyatma
Santati hetu yagya karvaya ,Dharm yagya ka shubh phal paya
Nrip ghar janme char kumaraa, Raghukul deep jagat adhaara…
Charon bhratonke shubh naama Bharat shatryghna lakshman rama…
Guru vashishtha ke gurukul jaake Alpa kaal vidya sab paake
Puran huyi shiksha Raghuvar puran kaam ki
Hum katha sunate Ram sakal gun dham ki
Yeh ramayan hai Punya katha shrii ram ki
Yeh ramayan hai Punya katha shrii ram ki
The kings of the clan of Raghu were followers of Dharma , And the emperor Dasaratha was a holy person,
And he carried out a Yaga for getting children and that Yaga of Dharma gave positive results,
In the palace of the king four sons were born who were the basis for lighting the clan of Raghu,
And those four sons were named Bharatha , Sathrugna , Lakshmana and Rama ,
And they went to the Gurukul of Vasishta and earned knowledge for some time ,
And the education reached completion and the great one of Raghu clan completed it,
We would now make you hear the Story of Ram who is treasure of all good qualities,
And this is Ramayana which is the holy story of Ram,
And this is Ramayana which is the holy story of Ram
Mrudu swar komal bhavana ,Rochak prastuti dhang
Ek ek kar varnan kare , Lav-kush ram prasang
In soft voice with pretty imagination , The interesting subject,
Were one by one described by Lav and Kush in front of Ram
Vishwamitr mahamuni raayi , Inke sang chale do bhai
Kaise ram tadka , Kaise naath ahilya taari
The sage Viswamithra came and with him went the two brothers,
And how Rama walked and how Ahalya was saved
Munivar vishwamitra tab , Sang le lakshman ram
Siya swayamvar dekhne , Pahunche mithila dham
Then sage Viswamithra along with Rama and Lakshmana,
Reached the city of Mithila to see Sita making the choice of her husband
Janakpur utsav hain bhaari , Janakpur utsav hain bhaari
Apne var ka chayan , Karigi sita sukumari
There was a great festival in ciry of Janaka , there was great festival in city of Janak,
For the pretty girl Sita would choose her groom…
Janakpur utsav hain bhaari , Janak raj ka kathin pran
Suno suno sab koi , Jo tode shiv dhanush ko
So sita pati hoye , Jo tore shiv dhanush kathor
There is a great festival in city of Janaka, the great soul of king Janaka,
Please hear, hear every one, he who brakes the bow of Shiva,
Would become the husband of Sita , he who brakes the bow of Shiva
Sab ki drishti ram ki oar , Ram vinaygun ke avtaar
Guruvar ki aagya siroddhar , Sehej bhaav se shiv dhanu toda
Every one’s look was towards Rama, for Rama was incarnation of humility,
Taking on his head the order of His Guru, in an ordinary fashion , he broke the bow of Shiva
Janak suta sang naata joda , Raghuvar jaisa aur na koi..
Sita ki samata nahin hoyi , Jo kare parajit kaanti koti rati kaam ki
The great one of Raghu and no one else , established relationship with daughter of Janaka
And there was no one equal to Sita, by her luster she defeated one crore Rathis
Hum katha sunate ram sakal gundham ki
Yeh ramayan hai punya katha siya ram ki
We are making you hear the story of Rama , the treasure of all that is good,
This is the holy story of Ramayana , the story of Sitaram
Sab par shabd mohini daali
Mantramugdha bhaaye sab nar naari
Yun din rain jaat hain beete
Lav-kush ne sab ke mann jeete
On every one the bewitching words were put,
And all men and ladies became enchanted by the words,
And several days and nights were spent ,
And every one’s mind was won over by Lava and Kusha
Van gaman sita haran hanumat milan
Lanka dehen ravan maran
Ayodhya punaraagaman
Sab vistar katha sunaayi
They all heard in detail the stories of,
Going to forest , kidnapping of sita, meeting with Hanuman,
Burning of Lanka , killing of Ravan,
And again coming back to Ayodya
Raja ram bhaye raghuraai
Ram-raj aayo sukh daayi
Sukh samriddhi shrii gharghar aayi
The Raghu Ram became the king Ram ,
And Rama’s rule came as comfort giving,
Happiness and prosperity came in every home,
Kaal chakra ne ghatna kram mein
Aisa chakra chalaya
Ram siya ke jeevan mein
Phir ghor andhera chaaya!!
In the series of events, the wheel of time,
Spun such a wheel,
In the life of Sita and Rama ,
That again big darkness came about
Avadh mein aisa aisa ek din aaya
Nishkalank pe praja ne
Mithya dosh lagaya!!
Avadh mein aisa aisa ek din aaya
In the country of Avadh , one such day came ,
The people found an imaginative fault,
On the one who does not have any stain
In the country of Avadh , one such day came
Chal di siya jab tod kar Sab neh-naatae moh ke
Pashan hridayon mein na Angaare jage vidhroha ke
Leaving every thing Sita went off for all love of relations is due to passion,
But in the stone like minds, the fire of revenge did not wake up
Mamtamayi maaonke Aanchal bhi simat kar reh gaye
Gurudev gyan aur neeti ke Sagar bhi ghat kar rehgaye….
Even the uppercloths of the very affectionate mothers appeared very much shrunk,
And even the ocean like wisdom and justice of God like Guru , appeared to flow below the ghats
Na raghukul na raghukul nayak
Koi na hua sia ka sahayak…
Maanavta ko kho baithe jab
Sabhya nagar ke vaasi
No clan of Raghus or the lord of that clan,
Were there to provide help to Sita,
And every one of the people of that civilized city,
Seemed to have lost their humanity
Tab sita ko hua sahayak
Van ka ek sanyaasi….
At that time one sage of the forest,
Became the help to Sita
Un rishi param udaar ka
Valmiki shubh naam
Sita ko aashray diya
Le aaye nij dham..
That Sage who was very generous,
Had the holy name of Valmiki,
And he provided support to Sita
And provided her the real home to live
Raghukul mein kuldeep jalaye..
Ram ke do sut siya ne jaaye..
The lamp of the clan of Raghus was lit,
And Sita gave Ram two sons
Shrota gan jo ek raja ki putri hain
Ek raja ki putrvadhu hain
Aur ek chakravati samrat ki patni hain
Wohi maharani sita
Vanvaas ke dukho mein
Apne dino kaise kaat ti hain
Oh audiences she was the daughter of a king,
She was the daughter in law of another king,
And she was the wife of a very great emperor,
And that great queen Sita
And yet how did she spend her days ,
Of her great sorrowful days in the forest
Apne kul ke gaurav aur
Swabhimaan ki raksha karte huye
Kisi se sahayta maange bina
Kaise apna kaam woh swayam karti hain…
Swayam van se lakdi kaant ti hain
Swayam apna dhaan kootti hain
Swayam apni chakki peesti hain
Aur apni santaanonko
Swavalambi banana,
Ki shiksha kaise deti hain
Protecting the respectability of her clan,
Protecting her great self respect ,
Without begging for help from any one,
She herself was cutting wood in the forest ,
She herself cleaned her own grains ,
She herself powdered the grain in the mortar,
And she made her children,
Depend only on themselves
And that is how she gave them lessons
Ab uski karun jhaani dekhiye.
Janak dulari kulavadhu Dasharath ji ki raj rani ho
Ke din van mein bitati hain……
Rehti thi gheri jise
Das- dasi aato yam
Daasi bani apni
Now see about her very pitiable life,
The darling daughter of Janaka became the queen of kingdom of dasaratha,
How does she spend her time in the forest,
She who used to live like an empress served by ten servant maids ,
All the twenty four hours
And she has now become a servant herself
Udaasi ko chupati hain…
Dharam praveena
Sati param kulina sab
Vidhi dosh-hina
Jina dukh mein sikhati hain
That great lady of Dharma ,
Was hiding her tiredness
She who was most virtuous innocent lady ,
Has been punished by fate.
And made to learn to live in sorrow
Jagmata hari-priya lakshmi swarupa siya
Koothhi hain dhaan bhoj swayam banati hain
Kathin kulhadi leke lakdiya kaant ti hain
Karam likhe ko par kaat nahi paati hain…
Sita, the mother of the world , the darling of Hari who has the form of Lakshmi,
Herself pounded the grain and prepareed herself the food,
She took a hard axe and sliced the fire wood herself,
Though fate has written like that and she was not able to cut
Phool bhi uthana bhaari jis sukumari ko tha
Dukh bhari jeevan woh uthathi hain
That tender lady to whom even flower was heavy,
was lifting this life filled with sorrow
Ardhangi raghuveer ki woh dhare dheer
Bharti hai neer neer jal mein nehlati hain
Jiske prajake apvaadon
Kuchakra mein
She who is the better half of Rama, with great cheer,
Filled up water and she mixed the bad words of the bad days
Of the citizens in that water itself,
Peesti hai chaaki
Swabhiman bachati hain….
Paalti hain bachchonko
Woh karmayogini ke bhaati
Swavalambi sabal banati hain
She mixed the dough ,
And saved her self respect ,
She nurtured her children,
Just like one who is detached,
And thus made them strong and self dependent
Aisi sita mata ki pariksh leti
Nithur niyati ko daya bhi nahi aati hain…
Does not this , a cruel justice become kind ,
When taking examination of such a great mother Sita
O…us dukhiya ke raj-dulaare…
Hum hi sut shrii ram tihaare….
O….sita maa ki aankh ki taare…ee …
Lav-kush hain pitu naam hamare….
He pitu bhagya hamare jaage
Ram katha kahe ram ke aage……
WE are the princely son of that sorrowing lady,
WE are your sons oh lord Rama,
We are the stars of the eyes of mother Sita,
And the names given to us are Luv and Kush
Oh our lucky father wake up,
WE are telling the story of Ram before Ram
