Gurmukhi Da Beta Press Release

Hello Media/Press & Viewers/Audience !!
#GurmukhiDaBeta~ ਗੁਰਮੁਖੀ ਦਾ ਬੇਟਾ the very first song from the Album #SevenRivers ~ ਦਰਿਆਈ ਤਰਜ਼ਾਂ has been Released. Here is the #PressNote :-

We must understand the importance of Script. It is always said that Language is dying or flourishing but basically it is the Script that preserves the language. Being a #Punjabi I feel so fortunate that we are one of those communities who has their own Alphabets (ਅੱਖਰ) so let’s cherish & admire this treasure.

1. It is the very first time in the history of Punjabi Music, a song is created on the basis of the glorification of the #SCRIPT of it’s native language.
2. I am dedicating this Song to River #SUTLEJ {ਸਤਲੁਜ} because of it’s testimony of major Gurmukhi writings.
3. This literary sonata is giving the appropriate importance to many of the unsung elements of this #Culture.
4. Gurmukhi Da Beta is particularly capturing the wider area from Farmers to Lovers of this land. ( Plz listen to the #FullAudio from any of your preferable platform)
5. An admirable significant connection between Punjabi & #Sufism starts from 12th century, the period of Sheikh Farid, considered as the first Poet of Punjabi Language. It is saying that the word PUNJAB came in writing after that, otherwise this land was known as the Land of Seven Rivers ( #SaptSindhu -Rigveda ) from the time of Indus Valley Civilisation.
6. According to the Historians the roots of #GURMUKHI Script are lying in the 13th century in the form of Sharda, Tankri & Lande but Sikh Gurus has reformed & emended this script and the devotees has given it the name of Gurmukhi.
7. This is an effort to unite the ancient geographical formation of this land, including the two significant Rivers: Sindh & Ghaggar with Five Rivers of #Punjab : Sutlej, Beas, Ravi, Chenab & Jhelum, that’s the reason behind the title of the Album ; SEVEN RIVERS (Daryai Tarza’n – ਦਰਿਆਈ ਤਰਜ਼ਾਂ )

These informatory facts will help to understand the essence of this creation. I assume it will decode & reconstruct our heritage to the unknown as well. The cinematography and genre of Music is portraying the Global appeal, a conscious approach. We have given the #Translation on the available #video, it’s purpose is to spread this precious thought preservatory element (ਗੁਰਮੁਖੀ) from the East to the West.

– Dr. Satinder Sartaaj

Main Gurmukhi Da Beta
Mainu Torde Ne Akhar
Maa Khelne Nu Ditte
Badi Lor De Ne Akhar

which translates to “I son of the script of my mother tongue, In its symbols, I stride, My Mother’s tongue has given me the Letters of ecstasy to play that intoxicated in its pride.” Read Complete Lyrics in English
