I had been wanting to type up the lyrics of this Ramayan Choupaayan ever since I listened to the track
jai gauri maa of Vivah. Finally, was able to do it! (with a lot of typos and mistakes in the words, I am sure). In any case, simply fabulous! that's how I'd like to describe it.
Every time, I listen to this 1-hour long track that has the entire story of Raamaayan, it makes me feel happy and emotional; it also stumps me to realize what an ideal human-being should be like and inspires me to be more like Him.
Jai Shri Raam!
It is to be sung to the tunes of this film song "mangal bhawan" from
Dulhan Wahi Jo Piya Man Bhaaye (1977).
