Rama Ho

This was the song that I sung in front of Guruji in the World Youth Peace Summit. There were at least 10,000 people there that day and I was slated to sing before Guruji came but Vikram Hazra's set took a bit longer than expected so did not get to start as expected. Before the end he saw four of us and he smiled and said, "Are you going to sing something?". I said yes but could I jazz it up a bit? He smiled and sure! The next thing I remember was the moment the beat started he got up and for two whole songs (This one and Jaya Jaya Krishna Krishna Hare) he just danced and danced!!! It was the happiest day of my singing career! I remember that with the first beat itself the entire crowd was on its feet but that was no where as near exciting as seeing Guruji dance.

This song is on my album Cosmic Celebrations and you can hear at:


Here are the original lyrics of the song:

Rama Ho


Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama

Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama (Rama Ho Adlib)

Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho

Jeevan Sagar Mere Bhaiya

Naiya Sada Badhae Ja

Prabhu Ko Na Bisaraye Ja

Ram Ramaiya Gaye Ja


Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama

Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama (Rama Ho Adlib)

Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho

Oh Sagar Main Hoti Hai Lehare

Leharoon Mein Toofan

Jeevan Mein Sukh Dukh Do Ayee

Voh Bhi Aisa Jaan

Sukh Aur Dukh Ke Is Jhule Mein

Masti Sada Banaye Ja

Prabhu Ko Na Bisaraye Ja

Ram Ramaiya Gaye Ja


Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama

Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama (Rama Ho Adlib)

Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho

Deepak Ne Kali Raaton Se

Darna Na Jaana

Maya Janjaalo Se Bhi Tu

Kabhi Na Ghabharaana

Manzil Tujhe Zaroor Milegi

Yeh Vishwas Jagaye Ja

Guru Ko Na Bisraye Ja

Ram Ramaiya Gaye Ja


Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama

Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama (Rama Ho Adlib)

Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho Rama Ho Rama Rama Ho
