3. Baso More Nainan Mein
In 1945, the legendary M.S. Subbulakshmi starred in and as ‘Meera’. While the
Tamil film was a huge success, the Hindi dubbed version was released in 1947.
Both soundtracks were composed by S.V. Venkatraman. Another popular song was
‘Mere Toh Giridhar Gopal’. This was Subbulakshmi’s last film as an actress, as she
focused on singing thereafter.

4. Chala Vahi Des
The Nightingale has recorded numerous Meera bhajans in the albums Meera
(1968), Chala Vahi Des (1974), and Meera Soor Kabira (2001), with music by
Hridaynath Mangeshkar. The classic Lata bhajan began with the lines, “Chala vahi
des, chal vahi des, kaho kusumbi saari rangawa, kaho toh bhagwa bhes”. Another
really popular Meera bhajan Lata recorded was ‘Payoji Maine Ram Ratan Dhan
Paayo’, earlier popularised by Pandit D.V. Paluskar.

5. Mai Sanware Rang Raachi
One of Mewati gharana maestro Pandit Jasraj’s most requested bhajans, this concluded
many of his concerts as it was composed in raag Bhairavi. One of the stanzas is, “Gaaya
gaaya Hari gun nis din, kaal byaal ri baachi, Shyam bina jag khaara laaga, jag ri baata
kaachi, mai sanware rang raachi”. This ranks among the most soulful renditions of a
Meera bhajan.

6. Aali Re Mere Naina
This song was separately recorded by both Lata and Asha Bhosle. The latter,
composed by Jaidev, was released in 1971. It makes fantastic use of the santoor and
bansuri. It begins with the lines, “Aali re mere naina baan padi”. The song has an
upbeat air that makes it frothy, besides Asha’s vocal nuances. Lata sang the words
‘More nainan’ in her rendition.

7. Hari Tum Haro
Though Jagjit Singh was primarily known for his rendition of ghazals, he also recorded
some marvellous bhajans, specially in the latter half of his career. This one, written by
Meerabai, has been composed in raag Puriya Dhanashree, and begins, “Hari tum haro
jan ki peer”. Like most Jagjit bhajans, this has a temple effect with strong choruses. His
voice has plenty of depth.

8. Saanson Ki Mala
August 16 marked Pakistani maestro Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s 25th death anniversary.
While his qawwals and Sufi numbers remain popular, there are many who continue to
play this bhajan. There are various versions, including a 30-minute qawwali-styled
rendition and a seven-minute edit. Handclaps and backing vocals give this a special
flavor, with Nusrat’s unique style adding charm. This video clip is rare.

9. Aye Ri Main Toh Prem Deewani
Anuradha Paudwal opened her 1989 album Meera with this melodious bhajan. “Aye ri
main toh prem deewani, mero dard na jaane koi”, she sings. Music is by Shekhar
Kalyan, who makes use of sitar and bansuri beautifully. The album has other gems like
‘Main toh saanware’ and ‘Mayee Ri Maine

10. The great Kishori Amonkar sang the beautiful ‘Pag Ghungroo Baandh’ at the Swar
Utsav festival at India Gate Lawns, New Delhi, in 2003. She rendered it in her
immaculate style, building up the mood gradually. The words are, “Pag ghungroo
baandh Meera naachee re, main toh mere Narayan ki aapahi ho gayee daasee re”.

Pag Ghungroo Baandh

11. Jo Tum Tod
Piya
This song was recorded twice by Lata, for Vasant Desai in Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baje
(1955) and for Shiv-Hari in Silsila (1981). Between them, in 1979, Vani Jairam sang
Pandit Ravi Shankar’s composition in the Hema Malini-Vinod Khanna film Meera. The
lyrics are, “Jo tum todo piya, main naahi todu re; tose preet tode Krishna, kaun sang
jodoon”. The song was sung beautifully with exquisite sitar parts.

12. Aisi Laagi Lagan
No Anup Jalota concert is complete without this bhajan, which talks of Meerabai’s
devotion to Lord Krishna. The lyrics are self-explanatory – “Aisi laagi lagan, Meera ho
gayee magan, woh toh gali gali Hari gun gaane lagee, mahalon mein palee, banke jogan
chali, Meera Rani deewani kehne lagee”. It’s actually a folk song written to describe
Meera’s life.
