or was it Raja Wajid Ali?Anyway the story goes that he penned the famous song 'babul mora chuta jaye' when he was imprisoned in his own palace by the British.the point I am trying to drive is the layers of meaning in one song!
i) bride is taken to her marital home in a doli
ii) A hearse is taken to its destination
iii) we are leaving our homeland for a more distant land
iv)there may be yet another meaning of this soul leaving its home in the world to meet the Lord
how great is that!
Anyway it shows what solitude can do!
Sorry ,the Raja was more poetic than me.Just wanted to share this tidbit from today's paper.
Adios!
