Indentured laborers from India suffered a lot during those first five years under Britain in Fiji. I admire our forefathers who worked so hard to make our lives happier later. This song has captured every bit of hardship Indians had endured in FIJI.
very emotional songs. I am from India and astonished to find the language used is exactly same as mine native bhojpuri. Will happy to support to trace your roots if any one wants.
Such a beautiful and emotional song. thanks for sharing. I'm from Fiji and have traced my roots back to Gorakhpur. I can understand the hardships our forefathers went through under the girmit system and am so thankful to my aaja who went to Fiji because if he hadn't gone, I would not have the life I have today.
Rahul my father in laws parents came from Bihar under the indenture system.. No families traced back yet.. Sad indeed.. This accent dialect is in that side of my familyToo
Im originally from Tavua.. Farming Family.. Feel so Emotional seeing these Farms n not spending enough time with my families who still work so hard in our farms... We're do u live these days Mr Singh??? Thank you so much for taking my life back to Root S through this
Thanks so much for this. I lived there for a short while, and have such regard for all the girmityas who created a new world....and yet honoured Indian culture. Today they have created something new and beautiful. Thankyou!
Those Indians who migrated to Fiji as indentured labours had taken so much pain,wish their offspring would flourish and live happily.They were cultured ,wise and that so why they had preserved own mothertounge.art culture and falk songs so better away.After all we have blood relations.aap logn ke hMare taraf se derh saare pyar baa.From India (Assam).
ram ram uncle my mother said this song is very heart touchin it made her cry very beuatiful song and if u have more please put them up and thank u for keeping old fiji history alive!!
Fantastic coverage of over 130 years in 9 minutes. I would look forward to Part 2. Having traced my roots in India, it makes so much more emotional. Blessings bhaiji.
These women spent their whole life waiting for husband who never came back, the great poet in Bhojpuri language who was a great performer also summerised the agony of those unfortunate into a song and poem in such a simple bhojpuri language that it easily touches heart of everyone who has anyhow relationship with Bihar or have undrstanding of the language and issue along with message in the song.
It is only Song saved in my favourite from long time-The destiny of Biharis are Same-We Biharis are here to hard work and make world comfortable and disciplined for everyone!This what the"Bihari Attitude,legacy and life mantra" is!!
Hello Friend, this is a very good song and expression of our Fiji Indian heritage and culture. Infact I was thinking of creating Bidesia song but thanks you have done. All the best and keep going.
My eyes got filled with tears after listening to this song . Now I remember when I was very young my mum used to sing sohar similar to this tune. Thank you Bhai.
