Why Kirtan Sang Like That?

[Guest guest]

hey i just wanted to ask ...most of the time when kirtan is sang...they sing the last bit 1st...lets use a shabd for example:

"mai andhulae kee ttaek thaeraa naam khundhukaaraa "

...the bit .."theraa naam khundakaaraa" will be sang 1st and then.." mai andhulae kee taek @ ?

....its confusing cuz when im tryin to look for the shab i dnt know where the shabd starts frm lol!!

..so just wondering if anyone knows??

ur right..... we should be singing the first part of the shabad first and then the rest.... i wonder we do it just for the tune it matches with..

i know wat ya mean.....like rite now ma lesson is "sevak kai bharpoor jug jug,wah guru tera sabh sadka"

yet wen i sing it in kirtan style i say "wah guru teera sabh sadka" first and then i say "sevak kai bharpoor jug jug"....and i gess its becuz wid some keertan tunes and shabds....da keys are in such a way dat da first line cannot be sang first....if u know wat i sayin ....and well....sometimes it really sounds kool and nice aswell!!! :TH: jus look for each line in da amrit keertan or anything else and it helps...bhul chuk muaf ji

Actually It's the Rahao lines that shuld be repeated..otherwise the wrong 'arth' are gotten.

For example, the shabad 'Vadiya Vadiya Vadiya, GurSikha man Vadiya' has nothing to do with someones birthday.

The way it is sung has 'tor marorna' (altered) the true meaning of the Shabad.

yhh i agree that when you switch shabads your saying that bani should be this way and that etc......who are we to swap guruji's bani around???....guruji has given no1 that right and know one should have that right.....

...if people agree that it shouldnt be happening then why does it still happen at rainsbhais and kirtans ...im not saying i dnt enjoy listening to it or whateva...i do but still knowing its wrong....its just wrong!
