Based on my limited skills here I think its a cry from the average
man (soldier, farmer etc.) against the rulers in Delhi.
 
Dear Vikas

Delhi here is the embodiment of the Rulers of India. It is regarding the relationship between the rulers and the peasantary, workers , middle classes of India. How the exploited lot see the rulers

Thank a lot for the reaction and suggestion

Ranbir Bhai.. Very Nice...

few years before> maine ek raagni suni thi jo ki Paleraam ne gayee thi> Maine ginke de liye bol teenso jaat chhubaare waali..tanne khole nahi kiwaad dekhraa main baat chhubare aali...

purane din taazaa ho gaye...
 
Usee dhun par hai

Dear Devendra ji

Thanks for the comments and your memory. The Ragni you refered is written by Fauji Mehar Singh.

This ragni is composed on the same dhun

I am delighted to see some ragni fans here.
So let me ask my question once again here (I had posted it in the "haryanavi music" section earlier).

Do we have any gurus teaching this form of music somewhere in jatland (or elsewhere) ? I am kinda interested in knowing more about the musical form of ragnis and how to keep it alive.

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Cheers!

Hey Vikas and Ranbir, I am also interested in knowing more about technical aspect of music involved in ragnis and kinds of music instruments used... most of ragni singers are people based back in Haryana... this genre of music doesn't seem to get carried on by youngsters in educated class.. why?... Gujrati, Panjabi, Bengali, Telgu and other south Indian forms of music and dance get preserved thru young generation in US too... does anyone know how to get started in learning music involved in ragnis?
Thanks
Vinod
 
Ostensibly there are some folks who teach ragnis and sangs. Pandit Lakhmichand used to be one. But I don't know any contemporary ones.

Major hurdles in keeping ragnis alive are (ofcourse in my miopic view) -
1. Lack of recognition of this music form.
2. Lack of interest for music in rural haryana.
3. Ragnis being considered crude.
4. Lack of formal training in folk singers.

Cheers!

I agree with Vikas,
Very few Jats wannts their young generation to learn Ragnis and sing.
This is true that Ragnis are considered as crude.

I remember long back there were few ragni competitions every year in some of the villages... and tape recorders became quite popular during those days in villages.

The question is if Gujrati, Telgu, Tamils are making efforts in maintaining their culture why not we?

How can we initiate this?
