Colonial Discourse and the Suffering of Indian American Children Book Cover.webp
We examine the impact of the current colonial-racist discourse around Hindu Dharma on Indians across the world and prove that this discourse causes psychological effects similar to those caused by racism: shame, inferiority, embarrassment, identity confusion, assimilation, and a detachment from our cultural heritage.

Rom rom mein basne

From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

Translated by P. R. Ramachander

Hey rom rom may basnevala Ram,
Jagat ke Swami, Antharyami, main thujse kyaa mangoon, hey

Oh Ram who lives each and every hair of mine,
Oh God of universe, Oh Lord who is everywhere within, What shall I ask you, Oh

AAs ka bandhan thod chuki hoom,
THujpar sab kuch chod chukka hoom,
Naath mere Main Kyon kuch sochoon, thoo jaane theraa kaam.

I have cut off my ties of hope,
And I have left everything to you,
Oh Lord, why should I think “mine, me” and you know your work.

There charanon ki dhool jo paaye,
Vo kankar heeraa ho jaye,
Baag mere jo maine paayaa, yin charanom mein dham,

The dust of your feet which I got,
Let it becomes stones of diamond
The thing that I got as my share, would be deposited in those feet.

Bhedh thera koi kyaa pahchaane,
Jo thujsaa ho, vo thujhe jaane,
There kiye ko hum kyaa deve, BHale bhure ka naam
Jagat ke swami, hey antharyami, mein thujse kyaa mangu ey

How can anyone understand differences in you,
Only you know, what all you have,
How can we call as good or bad the job done by you,
Oh God of universe, Oh Lord who is everywhere within, What shall I ask you, Oh

Hey rom rom may basnevala Ram,
Jagat ke Swami, Antharyami, main thujse kyaa mangoon, hey

Oh Ram who lives in each and every hair of mine,

Oh God of universe, Oh Lord who is everywhere within, What shall I ask you, Oh
