Meaning, Summary and Listening Notes
This song, "Mantra (om)... Om Pranabha Om Nad," is from the Hindi movie "Strings - Bound By Faith." It features a powerful, chant-like structure with repetitive "Om" phrases.
What it means
The lyrics present a complex, stream-of-consciousness mantra that blends traditional spiritual invocations with a wide array of mundane objects, political slogans, and aggressive imagery. It seems to encompass a vast spectrum of existence and human experience, from the sacred to the profane, the abstract to the concrete.
Listen forthe pervasive repetition of om throughout the versesthe rapid shifts between spiritual terms everyday items and political phrasesthe chant-like rhythm created by the short declarative linesthe invocation of various deities and calls to action

Lyrics
Om pranabha om nad om mudraya
Om vaktavya om udgar om goshnaay
Om bhasan om pravachan
Om hunkaar fatkaar om shitkaar
Om phus phus futkaar om chitkaar
Om aswanand ingit om shyare
Om naare aur naare aur naare
Om sab kuch sab kuch om sab kuch
Om kuch nahin kuch nahin om kuch nahin
Om patthar par ki dhup, khargosh ke singh, namak tel haldi, jeera heeng
Om koyla ispat, om petrol
Om hum hi hum thos, baaki sab phoote dhol
Om moos ki lahri, kaler ke paat, dayan ki cheekh aur ghar ki utpat baat
Om jaajman, om purohit, om raja, om dalit
Om kranti kranti kranti, sarvagya kranti
Om shanti shanti shanti, sarvagya shanti
Om bhranti bhranti bhranti, sarvagya bhranti
Om bachao bachao bachao
Om hatao hatao hatao
Om gherao gherao gherao
Om nibhao nibhao nibhao
Om danomeg dal apna dal
Om mangikaran, suddhikaran, rashtriyakaran
Om mushthikaran, tushtikaran, pushtikaran
Om mritraj, aakshey, anushashan
Om gaddi par ajanma bajrasan
Om tribunal, ashwasan, gutnirapeksha, satta-sapeksh jod tod
Om bakwaas, om udhghatan
Om maran mohan ucchatan
Om chaalla-chand mittha horam-hor
Om kaali kaali kaali maha kaali
Om maar maar maar bhag naa jaaye khali
Om apni khushali om dushmano ki baamali
Om maar maar maar maar
Om opposition ke mund bane tere gale ka haar
Om mang hring cring hum haam
Om hum chabayegen tilak aur gandhi ki taang
Om budhe ki aankh, chokri ka kajal, tulsi dal, dilla-patra, chandan-rori, akshat, gangajal
Om sher ke daant, bhaloo ke nakhoon, markhat ka khota
Om humesha humesha karega raj mera pota
Om chu chu fhu fhu phat fit fut shatruyon ke chaati par loha kut
Om bhairon bhairon, om bajrangi bali
Om bandook ka tota, pistol ki nali
Om dollar dollar, om rouble rouble
Om pound pound, om sound sound
Om sound sound, om sound sound
Om dharti dharti, dharti, dharti dharti, vyom, vyom vyom
Om astdhatuyon ki, ito ke bhatte, mahamahi, mahamaho, ullu ke patthe
Om durga, durga, tara tara, isi pet ke under sama jaaye sarva hara (2)
Hari om tatsat !
