TOMRA JA BOLO TAI BOLO | তোমরা যা বলো তাই বলো | Abhyuday Mallick | Rabindra Sangeet | Amit Banerjee|

Rabindranath Tagore, a literary giant, philosopher, and visionary, continues to enchant audiences with his vast repertoire of songs known as Rabindra Sangeet. These compositions reflect Tagore's unique philosophical outlook, blending human emotions with a sense of spirituality, nature, and the divine. One such remarkable piece is “Tomra Ja Bolo Tai Bolo,” a song that epitomizes the spirit of internal freedom and detachment from worldly concerns, themes that are often central to Tagore’s works.
This particular song stands out because of its simplicity and profoundness. On the surface, the song seems like a personal monologue, reflecting an individual's indifference to societal judgments and opinions. However, when one delves deeper into the song, it reveals layers of spiritual thought, introspection, and a deep connection with the natural world.
Lyrics
তোমরা যা বলো তাই বলো, আমার লাগে না মনে।
আমার যায় বেলা, বয়ে যায় বেলা কেমন বিনা কারণে॥
এই পাগল হাওয়া কী গান-গাওয়া
ছড়িয়ে দিয়ে গেল আজি সুনীল গগনে॥
সে গান আমার লাগল যে গো লাগল মনে,
আমি কিসের মধু খুঁজে বেড়াই ভ্রমরগুঞ্জনে।
ওই আকাশ-ছাওয়া কাহার চাওয়া
এমন ক'রে লাগে আজি আমার নয়নে॥

Tagore’s worldview was greatly influenced by his belief in the importance of individual freedom and self-expression. He believed that true happiness comes not from seeking validation from others but from finding peace within oneself. This idea is evident in many of his works, and “Tomra Ja Bolo Tai Bolo” encapsulates this philosophy beautifully. The singer is not swayed by societal expectations, norms, or criticisms; instead, they are content to live life according to their own rhythms, detached from the opinions of others.This detachment isn't about indifference or apathy, but about the freedom from seeking approval. Tagore emphasizes individualism and inner strength in these lines, quietly defying societal pressures and reminding us that true contentment comes from within.
The song opens with the lines "Tomra ja bolo tai bolo, amar lage na mone," which translate to "You say what you want, but it doesn’t matter to me." These lines set the tone for the entire piece. The singer is uninterested in what others think or say about them, reflecting a state of mental detachment from external judgments.
Tagore often saw time as a natural force and a metaphor for life’s journey. In “Tomra Ja Bolo Tai Bolo,” time is accepted rather than feared. The singer is at peace with life’s uncertainty, embracing its mystery without needing meaning in every moment. This acceptance of life’s unpredictability reflects the song’s theme of detachment, as the singer allows life to unfold naturally, trusting in time’s flow. This spiritual surrender aligns with Eastern philosophies that emphasize living in the present and letting go of attachments to the past or future.
Tagore often explored the concept of time in his works, and he viewed it as both a force of nature and a metaphor for life’s journey. In “Tomra Ja Bolo Tai Bolo,” time is not something to be fought or feared but rather something to be accepted and flowed with. The singer seems to be at peace with the fact that life moves on without any clear direction or purpose, and that’s okay. There’s no need to find meaning in every moment because the beauty of life lies in its mystery.This acceptance of life’s unpredictability is closely tied to the song’s overall theme of detachment. The singer is not clinging to any specific outcome or expectation; they are simply allowing life to unfold as it will, trusting that the natural flow of time will take them where they need to go. This sense of surrender is deeply spiritual, echoing the teachings of various Eastern philosophies that emphasize living in the present moment and letting go of attachment to the past or future.
This song captures the essence of someone who is unaffected by external opinions, someone who is more in tune with the subtle flow of life. The "pagol hawa" (crazy wind) and the vast, endless sky evoke an image of a world that is both boundless and mysterious. The singer is drawn to this world, not by logic or reason but by something deeper and more instinctual.
At its core, “Tomra Ja Bolo Tai Bolo” is a celebration of inner freedom and detachment.
