Gw baru mendengarkan kembali lagu Kula Shaker yang judulnya "Govinda" yang keluar tahun 1997. Liriknya dalam bahasa Sansekerta, karena menarik gw Google liriknya beserta artinya buat cari tau,,here it is..Karena panjang gw copas aje ye,,hehe,,i took it from http://premavatar.tripod.com/focm/lyrics.html
Govinda
GOVINDA JAYA JAYA
GOPALA JAYA JAYA
RADHA-RAMANAHARI
GOVINDA JAYA JAYA
NRSINGADEVA JAYA
NRSINGADEVA
Translation: Victory victory [to] Govinda,
Victory victory [to] Gopala,
Hari [Krsna] pleasure giver to Radha,
Victory victory [to] Govinda,
Victory [to] Nrsingadeva (this is a form that Krsna took as half man and half lion and deva means god),
Nrsingadeva.
Gopala is one of Krsna's names. During Krsna's childhood in Vrindavana in North India, he grew up as a cow boy/cow herder. He took care of the cows, by taking a herd of cows for grazing to forests and green pastures. He protected them from wild beasts. Gopala is actually a joint name from two words: go + pala. The meaning of go = cow, and the meaning of pala = caretaker or a person who protects and is responsible for the safety of something or someone.
Ramanhari is again one of the names of Sri Krsna. Radha was the name of Krsna’s childhood friend and beloved. She is His consort. The word Ramanhari means "the one who steals the peace of the mind" that is, in this case, of Radha. Sri Krsna enchanted Radha, all of the gopis and gopalas, animals and villagers by His flute (anandini, bansuri, murali).
Nrsingadeva is an avatar (incarnation) of Krsna/Vishnu. This form of Krsna was half lion and half man (the upper part of his body (face, chest and stomach) was of a lion, and lower part of his body was of a man). He had the fore limbs (arms) of a lion, having big paws and very sharp, long nails. Nrsingdeva, itself, is a joint name of three words as follows: nr = male/man, sing = lion, deva = god.
Prabhupada refers to the spiritual master, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Praphupada ji, the founder of ISKCON. This is a common temple bhajan/song.
Govindam is one of the names given to Sri Krsna. It is a joint name from two words: gov = cows + indam = god. Govinda was the person who was the god of the cows or the person who took care of the cows, just like the One takes care of man. Cows are very sacred in Bharat (India). They are entitled respect and loyalty, because they are like mothers (read: Holy Cow by Steven J. Rosen).
Background Information: "Govinda" is a folk/devotional song and it is about Sri Krsna.
Wew,,hebat yaaa orang bule bisa explore untuk nyanyiin lagu asia gini..bagaimana dengan kita, hey orang ASIA ?? Baru2 ini gw menyadari Asia makin seperti Barat atau kebarat-baratan. Gaya hidup konsumtif (gw jg msh konsumtif sih,sebenernya..hiks), manner yang makin kebarat-baratan (sudah tidak sopan sm orang tua, dll), alkohol makin banyak ditenggak, seks bebas, dll. Wew, bukannya gw mau sok naif ato sok tua ato sok2 yg lain..once again, i just write it out about my thoughts. Menurut gw, Asia merupakan gudang yang penuh dengan onggokan kekayaan yg gak keliatan sama orang2nya karena ketutupan sampah yg mereka buang di situ. HALOOOO ORANG ASIA !!! Gw gak bermaksud membangkitkan Naziisme lagi, cuma gw pikir orang Asia juga unik, cantik, tampan, hebat, dan sukses dengan caranya sendiri. Karena itu, kita harus mengahargai bangsa kita sendiri ! Caranya ? yaa, salah satunya kenal budaya Asia, ato paling gak tau. Termasuk kita orang Indonesia yang menurut gw masih lumayan 'Asia' dibanding negara Asia yang lain. Gak ada alasan untuk minder sm orang barat, karena KITA SEJAJAR DENGAN MEREKA. Yang kita butuhkan hanya self value yang lebih banyak untuk diri kita sendiri. So, let's work it out !!! HIDUP ASIA !! wkwkwkwk..

Gitaris kula shaker itu kena virus psycadelic macam om lennon karena perjalanan spiritual ke india..jadi ya hasilnya itu :)
Entah knp gue ngeshare di fb haha
Kenapa gw baru tau lagu sebagus ini di tahun 2019 :')
lagub jamanan masih remaja eeeh gak taunya artinya seperti pemujaan dewanya vrindavan ya
Ane mau perjelas ni sama-sama belajar ya, kayak ada tanggung jawab gitu kalo gk ngelurusin, itu band ingris kula shaker, dan band2 lainnya banyak terpengaruh music india terutama, sitar, dll, itu karena emang roots nya mereka, musisi Legendaris dan juga sebagai gitaris di band the beatles George harrison lah yang membawa Musik seperti ini menjadi musik mainstraem, jadi gak heran kalo banyak band britpop mereka musiknya sperti ini karena memang ada kulturnya, itu yang ngata2in orang asia saya rasa telalu berlebihan, ya karena mereka punya roots, kenapa gk ke musik dambus, musik tradisional lainnya, ya alasannya George harrison dulu ketertarikannya pada musik india dan spiritualnya, seandainya dulu George memilih musik gamelang mungkin gamelang lah yang akan terkenal di Inggris, jadi jangan terlalu menyalahkan orang2 jaman sekarang, ✌
Hahahaha... lagu zaman sma... masih kaset pita...
