Raag : Khamaj

Ustad Bismillah KhanKhamaj Raag is not the Ashyrya Raag (premier) of Khamaj thaat as it is not a sampoorn-sampooran Raag. The first Raag of Khamaj Thaat is Jhinjhoti. However, it is a famous and a very sweet Raag. Lots of folk tunes are based on this raag.

Raag Khamaj Aroh-Avroh

Although Khamaj Thaat and Raag are based on seventh flat (Komal nishad), there is a common practice in Indian music to use Tivar (Shudh) Nishad with Raags of Khamaj Thaat. Tivar Nishad can also be added to Khamaaj Raag without breaking any rules. Dhaivat is slightly weak in Aroh, the Raag’s main ascending phrase is G, M, P, N. Pancham or Pa is often Vakar (jumped over) in Avroh (D, M, P, M).

ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ

ਨ੍ਹੇਰੇ ਦੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਾਹ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ
ਖੁਦ ਜਲ਼ ਜਲ਼ ਕੇ ਰਾਹ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ

ਕੋਈ ਤੀਲੀ ਸੀਨੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾ ਸਕਦੀ ਨਾ
ਦਿਲ ਦੇ ਦੀਵੇ ਗਾ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ

ਨਹੀਂ ਤਾਂ ਏਥੇ ਸਤਯੁਗ ਹੀ ਆ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ
ਅੱਗ ਵਿੱਚ ਸੁੱਟ ਗਵਾਹ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ

ਸੱਚ ਤਾਂ ਰੌਸ਼ਨ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਏ ਬਸ ਸੱਚਿਆਂ ਲਈ
ਝੂਠੇ ਬਿਨ ਮਨਸ਼ਾ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ

ਨ੍ਹੇਰੀ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਤੇਰਾ ਰਾਹ ਵੇਖਣ ਨੂੰ
ਸਾਨੂੰ ਅਪਣੇ ਚਾਅ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ

ਚਾਹੁੰਦੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਪਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਵਿੱਚ ਟੁਕੜੇ ਯਾਦਾਂ ਦੇ
ਦਮ ਰੱਖਣ ਲਈ ਤਾਅ ਰੁਸ਼ਨਾਉਣੇ ਪੈਂਦੇ ਨੇ।
