Goalpariya lokageet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Goalpariya lokageet is a regional folk music of Assam basically from the erstwhile Goalpara district. It is due to the legendary folk singer Pratima Barua Pandey who popularised and integrated-hitherto little known, the genre of Goalpariya lokageet into the mainstream Assamese music and even to the national level. Other noted singers are Allauddin Sarkar, Hamida Sarkar, Abdul Jabber, to mention a few.
Some well known Goalpariya lokageet are:
O mor hai hastir kanyare
Khaniko doya nai mahutok lagiyare
Hastir kanya, hastir kanya, bamuner nari
Mathai niya tam kalsi o
Omi hate sonar jhari omi o
O mor hai hastir kanyare
Tomra gaile ki ashiben
mor mahut bandhu re
Hastire naran, hastire choran,
Kakoua basher aara
Ore ki shape dongshilek bandhubak
Bandhua hoilo mor lorare
Lal gamcha ranga sari re
Ore tar madhye nanan dor
Ajir moto jao bandhu
Shawami ache mor
Lal sari le re moina, lal sari re
Tor malik bhalo re moina, lal sari re
Are laljir bari jabire moina, lal sari re
Godi, gadla pabire moina, lal sari re
Dine dine khusia paribe
Rangilar dalaner mati o saire
