Following the footsteps of Meera Bai who relinquished the comforts of her royal palace, we have another Princess, Raamkali who took the path less traveled by. Resonating her pain, the Sindhi Sufi poet Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai expresses his longing for detachment.
It seems in his youth days, Latif wandered for several years with the Nathpanthi Yogis, absorbing their lifestyle and being. This kafi (a form of Sufi verse) from Sur Raamkali describes the yearning of a Princess for the Yogis, her devastation when they left her one day to go on their own wandering ways. She has no fear of accepting a homeless mendicant's life and surrendering her privileges to a humble cause. She repeatedly pleads for the Yogis to return back and take her with them. They have painted her heart in the shades of saffron and now her solace rests with them. One can clearly feel this longing through the strings of Mooralala's magical tambura.
Perhaps the most striking quality of Mooralala's singing is the sense of unparalleled joy that one gets connected to. He belongs to a lineage of Meghwal Singers who migrated from Rajasthan to Kutch about 300 to 400 years ago. Now settled in the village of Khadeer in Kutch, Mooralala claims to be an eleventh-generation singer and that his Santaar (tambura) must be at least 130 years old.
Enjoy this age-old classic composition, in the beautiful voice of Mooralala Marwada, and swing yourselves to the beats of the Tambura!

I Want to Be with the Yogis
Shah Abdul Latif Bhitai
My heart couldn’t help it
It left with the yogis
Oh, mother,
I want to be with the yogis!
Tying up their dhotis
The saadhus took off again
Oh, mother,
I long for the company of yogis!
Bowl in hand, stick on shoulder
I’ll also be a wandering seeker
Oh mother,
I want to be with the yogis!
Chanting “yogi, yogi” I set off
I paid no heed to anyone
Oh mother,
I long for the company of yogis!
Shah Latif says, listen friends
They dyed me in their color
Oh mother,
I want to be with the yogis!
