The vibrant world of Haryanvi music has been enthralled by the return of Amit Saini Rohtakiya with “Aghori 3.” This high-energy devotional song, released under the Sonotek Music label, marks the latest chapter in Rohtakiya’s exploration of his Bholenath (Lord Shiva) devotion. “Aghori 3” blends infectious dance beats with heartfelt lyrics, creating a unique soundscape that celebrates faith with a touch of Haryanvi swagger.

Composed by the talented Rk Crew, “Aghori 3” deviates from the traditional devotional ballad format.

The lyrics, penned by Sumit Balambiya, are a captivating blend of Haryanvi dialect and traditional devotional themes. Lines like “Saanv Ke Badal Barse” (Let the monsoon clouds rain) and “Bholenath Le Kyo Kar Jaenge” (Why would you leave, Bholenath?) showcase the raw emotions of a devotee yearning for his deity’s presence. The song cleverly incorporates the word “Aghori,” a term associated with Shiva devotees who follow unconventional practices. Here, it seems to symbolize the protagonist’s intense and unwavering devotion, breaking free from societal norms.

The magic of “Aghori 3” extends beyond the music. The accompanying music video, directed by Jeetu G, is a visually stunning spectacle. Rohtakiya takes center stage, his passionate performance brimming with religious fervor. The video features imagery of Shiva’s trident (trishul), traditional dhol beats, and vibrant sets, all contributing to the devotional atmosphere. The choreography, designed by Santokh S Khera, incorporates elements of Bhangra dance, adding a touch of Haryanvi energy to the spiritual experience.

Lyrics-
अर मोह माया ते दूर ओ भोले खास या बूटी लागे से
मैने तेरी कसम ओ भोले नाथ या दुनिया झूठी लागे से
अर मोह माया ते दूर ओ भोले खास या बूटी लागे से
मैने तेरी कसम ओ भोले नाथ या दुनिया झूठी लागे से

अरे भूले क्युकर जागें भोले अपने मेल पुराने से
मै उन बाबया गेलया रया करू जड़े संभू तेरे ठिकाने से

1 पेपर पे पेपर तान दिए यो माल थोड़ा सा जहरी से
अरे कई घंट्या ते मेरी नजर भोले एक जगह पे ठहरी से
अरे रहरी स या शरण तेरी आड़े सारे लोग बिराने से

2 अरे घूंट मार ली गांजे की, जब तेरा भी एहसास होया
ओए कीत फेटगा नाथ मैने मै तेरे नाम का दास होया
र सुमित balmbhiye माल सपड़ते वो हे तेरे उलहाने से

3 अरे उठ बैठ मेरी बाब्या मै जड़े नाम तेरा यो पावे से
ओ शिव संभू मैने तेरी ढाल भस्म रमानी आवे से
ओ लटाधारी ओ जटाधारी हम तेरे खास दीवाने से
