Gudi Padwa is a festival which is celebrated mainly by the people of Maharashtra. It is the first day of the Chaitra month of the traditional Hindu calendar and hence is celebrated as the New Year. At the same time, it also marks the arrival of the season of spring. Gudi Padwa is known by different names in different parts of the country, e.g., Nau Roz in Kashmir, Baisakhi in Punjab, Cheti Chand in Sindhi, Naba Barsha in Bengal, Goru Bihu in Assam, Puthandu in Tamil Nadu and Vishu in Kerala. The day is termed auspicious because it is believed that this was the day when Lord Brahma created the universe out of chaos. The Hindus in Maharashtra religiously follow the rites related to this festival by taking the auspicious bath, hoisting the Gudi, chanting prayers and singing songs in praise of the gods. There are a few songs which are associated with the festival and we are listing here a few out of those.
Gudi Padwa Songs Lyrics
Aakashi zhep ghe re
Aakashi zhep ghe re, pakhara
sodi sonyacha pinjara
tujbhavati vaibhav, mayaa
fala rashal milate khaya
sukhalolup zali kaya
ha tuthvar vedya ghesi aasara
ghar kasale hi tari kara
vishasman moti chara
mohche bandhan dvara
tuj aadavito ha kaisa, umbara
tuj pankh dile devane
kar vihar samrthyane
dari, dongar, hiravi raane
ja oalandun ya sarita, sagara
kashtavin fal na milate
tuj kalate, pari, na valate
hrudyat vyatha hi jadate
ka jiv bichara hoi bavara
ghamantun moti phulale
shramdev ghari avatarle
ghar prasannatene natale
ha yog jeevani aala, sajira
Amrutahuni god naam tuze
amrutahuni god naam tuze dewa
man maze keshwa ka ba n ghe
sang pandhariraya kai karu yashi
ka roop dhyanashi n ye tuze
kiratni baista nidre nagvile
man maze guntale vishysukha
haridas garjati harinamachy kirti
naye mazya chitti nama mahne
Paule chalati pandharichi wat
paule chalati pandharichi wat
sukhi sansarachi soduniya gath
ganjuniya bhari dukh daridryane
padata rikame bhakariche tat
aapt ist sare sagesoyare te
pahuniya sare phirwati path
gheta Prasad shri vittalacha
aasha daridryacha whawa naynat
man shant hota punha lage oodh
taisa aani god sansaracha that
