paapiman Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 What do you mean by a Tarana? What is he singing? Is this similar to the taal codes of the tabla (Da, Din, Tin, Ta, etc)? Codes associated with different blows/strikes? Bhul chuk maaf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amardeep Posted January 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 I think so yes. There are many such verses in Dasam Granth and Sarbloh Granth which are not words per se but rather the sounds of swords and drums etc. I think this is one such example of the sound of drums 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amardeep Posted January 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 I came across some lines in Sarbloh Granth a few years back that went something like this: ..... sa sa sa ...... na na na ...... tha tha tha ....... kha kha kha It did'n make sense to me back then, but considering now it is used for music then it makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amardeep Posted January 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Regardless of whether one believes in Dasam bani or not, many sections are pure treasure houses of poetic and musical beauty. See this: Guru Gobind Singh's masterful poetic dexterity is on display below, which is a portion from his Chandi Chritar. The Tenth King uses a literary device known as antanaclasis, or in Braj and Sanskrit literature, Yamak Alankar, whereby the same word will be used repeatably with varying different meanings. The word Hari, has 44 definitions, and Guru Gobind Singh uses 14 separate meanings in this single stanza to describe the beauty of the Goddess. ਹਰਿ ਸੋ ਮੁਖ ਹੈ ਹਰਿਤੀ ਦੁਖ ਹੈ ਅਲਿਕੈ ਹਰ ਹਾਰ ਪ੍ਰਭਾ ਹਰਿਨੀ ਹੈ ॥ Her face is akin to the moon(1), beholding of which all suffering is dispelled(2), her curly hair even surpasses(3) the magnificence of Shiva's(4) garland of snakes. ਲੋਚਨ ਹੈ ਹਰਿ ਸੇ ਸਰਸੇ ਹਰਿ ਸੇ ਭਰੁਟੇ ਹਰਿ ਸੀ ਬਰੁਨੀ ਹੈ ॥ Her eyes are like lotus flowers(5), her eyebrows are like bows(6), and her eyelashes are like arrows(7). ਕੇਹਰਿ ਸੋ ਕਰਿਹਾ ਚਲਬੋ ਹਰਿ ਪੈ ਹਰਿ ਕੀ ਹਰਿਨੀ ਤਰਨੀ ਹੈ ॥ Her waist is slim like that of a lion(8), [the rhythm in] her stride is [graceful] like an elephant(9), [her beauty] surpasses that of the wife of Kamdevta(10). ਹੈ ਕਰ ਮੈ ਹਰਿ ਪੈ ਹਰਿ ਸੋ ਹਰਿ ਰੂਪ ਕੀਏ ਹਰ ਕੀ ਧਰਨੀ ਹੈ ॥੮੮॥ Shiva's wife [Chandi](11), with a sword(12) in hand, riding atop a tiger(13), is enchanting like the Sun(14). ਦਸਮ ਗੁਰੂ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ ਸਾਹਿਬ, ਅੰਗ 82 Dasam Guru Granth Sahib, page 82 The word Hari is used for: 1) moon, 2) dispelling, 3) surpassing/stealing, 4) Shiva, 5) lotus flowers, 6) bow, 7) arrows, 8) lion, 9) elephant, 10) Kamdevta, 11) Chandi, 12) sword, 13) tiger, 14) Sun This literary device is mentioned by the great poet, Santhok Singh, in his Jap Ji Sahib Commentary, Garab Ganji Tika, where he writes: ਇਕ ਪਦ ਵਾਰ ਅਨੇਕ ਜਿ ਆਵੈ, ਅਰਥਹਿ ਭਿੰਨ ਭਿੰਨ ਪ੍ਰਗਟਾਵੈ, ਸੋ ਯਮਕਾਲੰਕਾਰ ਬਖਾਨੈ, ਕਵਿ ਸੰਤੋਖਸਿੰਘ ਗੁਣੀ ਪ੍ਰਮਾਨੈ । When one word is reused many times, with varying meanings springing forth, this is called Yamak Alankar, Poet Santhok Singh relates these characteristics and evidence.

The above is a beautiful passage from Sr Chandi Charitar Sahib jee. Alankaar Vidhya is a must for any Sikh scholar. Gurparsaad, Daas will make a post on Alankaars and we can discuss them briefly.
