Bharati who Lost his Heart in Songs

Abstract

Senaappothar (Thiruvalluvar) said that water will flow from a well in the sand in proportion to the depth to which it is dug, and knowledge will flow from a man in proportion to his learning. Learned men had been given a fruitful opportunity to explain boundless truths after having dusted many sources, referred to many articles, submerged in the ocean of Bharathi, and selected one facet from many, like a pearl preciously discovered. Bharathi of the Tamil world has disturbed my sleep. My knowledge marches towards completion because I have done this research. At every stage, why did Bharathi, who has won the times and is still alive today, in his lifetime, immersed in music, mesmerised by rhythm, enraptured by songs, and at every stage, why did he lose his mind in "Song?" When examining that, some things become apparent. They are explored in this study. A mind that is not mesmerised by music will be mesmerised by Tamil music. Bharathi had a great desire to make his songs dance in the language of everyone, from the layman to the learned. That's why he has composed music with a great effort like a lyricist so that they should be sung sweetly in his own time, be it hymns, fiery chants of freedom, or Vedanta philosophy. It is clear that Bharathi's patriotic songs, set to music, were the primary accompaniment to the great revolutionary struggles. What we wonder about in this study is song, i.e., beyond music, the origin and evolution of song, its spread in the multiplicity, and its innumerable types. The adventure that has made our hearts go crazy after listening to the song.
