Bhole Shankar Khol Jatayein Lyrics in English Letters (Romanized)
Upahaas Kama Kar Aaya Hoon
Itihaas Banaakar Jaaunga
Is Baar Bhi Gaane Ke Aakhir Mein
Sabko Rulaakar Jaaunga
Paakhand Ka Parcham Ooncha Hai
Use Kheench Ke Neeche Laaunga
Akele To Kar Sakta Nahin
Shankar Ke Saath Mein Aaunga Main
Ek Din Aisa Hoga
Jab Ulat Pher Sansaar Ka Hoga
Aawaaz Bejubaanon Ki Goonje
Waqt Nikhaar Ka Hoga
Haan Kaal Pralay Ka Ho
Sanghaar Ki Jwaala Jali Rahegi
Aur Bali Chadhaane Waalon Ki Hi
Us Par Bali Chadhegi
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
Brahm Bhayankar Khel Rachaae
Kasht Khatm Kar Bhairav Digambar
Naad Ho Jam Kar Bhasm Ramaae
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
Brahm Bhayankar Khel Rachaae
Rudra Shubhankar Karke Kalam Sar
Veerbhadra Vidhvansh Machaae
Har Bhasm Ang Har Nang Dhadang
Har Har Bedang Ho Kar Malang
Har Sheesh Gang Karpoor Rang
Vasu Ki Bhujang Vishdhar Visang
Na Bhed Sake Bhaala Khadang
Har Ang Bhang Kare Bhang Nang
Paakhand Se Hai Ghanghor Jang
Kitne Kalang Kar Deve Bhang
Peeda Ke Badle Peeda Dena
Shankar Kya Ye Baat Sahi
Jo Vyakt Na Karta Peeda Ko
Usko Hota Santaap Nahin
Rachna Jaisi Ki Thi Tumne
Shiv Ab Ye Vo Sansaar Nahin
Tu Dhyaan Magan Hai Jaane Kahaan
Ab Triloki Mein Nikhaar Nahin Hai
Ek Din Aisa Hoga
Jab Ulat Pher Sansaar Ka Hoga
Aawaaz Bejubaanon Ki Goonje
Waqt Nikhaar Ka Hoga
Haan Kaal Pralay Ka Ho
Sanghaar Ki Jwaala Jali Rahegi
Aur Bali Chadhaane Waalon Ki Hi
Us Par Bali Chadhegi
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
Brahm Bhayankar Khel Rachaae
Kasht Khatm Kar Bhairav Digambar
Naad Ho Jam Kar Bhasm Ramaae
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
Brahm Bhayankar Khel Rachaae
Rudra Shubhankar Karke Kalam Sar
Veerbhadra Vidhvansh Machaae
Likhkar Peeda Inki Kyon
Phoot Pade Aansoo Ye Mere
Shankar Insaaf Karo Na
Toot Rahe Praani Ab Tere
Ab Suna Nahin Jaata Ye
Phoot Phoot Kar Mrityu Ka Rona
Mahakaal Chalo Doshi Ka
Kapaal Phod Kar Nritya Karo Na
Tere Teesre Nain Ko Khulta
Dekhne Nain Nikhar Ke Tarse
Har Ek Paapi Bhakshak Pe
Agni Ab Sanghaar Ki Barse
Kaisi Nirlajjata Hai Ki
Praatah Jal Shivling Chadhaaye
Ho Shaam Ko Pashupati Ke
Pashuon Ka Hi Maans Chabaaye
Bechaara Nandi Ab
Shivshankar Ko Dhoondh Raha
Shiv Dwaare Apne Pitata Dekh Bhi
Aankhen Moond Raha
Bolo Kalyug Mein Jaagti Hai Kya
Mamata Gaura Maiya Ki
Jab Dekhe Jarjar Haalat Vo
Insaan Se Peedit Gaiya Ki
Ab Dekho Gali Gali Mein
Bhasmaasur Hi Ghoom Rahe
Shiv Bhakti Paakar
Vo Shiv Bhakton Ko Hi Ghoor Rahe
Jo Ek Haath Vardaan Kare
Har Ek Saans Abhimaan Kare
Aise Nirmohi Lobhi Ka
Shankar Kaise Kalyaan Kare
Ek Din Aisa Hoga
Jab Ulat Pher Sansaar Ka Hoga
Aawaaz Bejubaanon Ki Goonje
Waqt Nikhaar Ka Hoga
Haan Kaal Pralay Ka Ho
Sanghaar Ki Jwaala Jali Rahegi
Aur Bali Chadhaane Waalon Ki Hi
Us Par Bali Chadhegi
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
Brahm Bhayankar Khel Rachaae
Kasht Khatm Kar Bhairav Digambar
Naad Ho Jam Kar Bhasm Ramaae
O Bhole Shankar Khol Jataaen
Brahm Bhayankar Khel Rachaae
Rudra Shubhankar Karke Kalam Sar
Veerbhadra Vidhvansh Machaae

Bhole Shankar Khol Jatayein Song Description
This song is "Bhole Shankar Khol Jatayein", sung, composed, and written by Nikhar Juneja, who is also the founder of the Wagheshwari Mata Mandir. The music production, mixing, and mastering were also done by Nikhar Juneja, and it has been released under his own music label.
The song's lyrics carry a deep social and spiritual message, raising a voice against the hypocrisy prevalent in society while praying to Lord Shiva. The lyrics say, "Main uphaas ka patra bankar aaya hoon" (I have come bearing mockery), but "Itihaas rachkar jaunga" (I will leave having created history). "Iss baar gaane ke ant mein sabko rulakar jaunga" (This time, I will leave making everyone cry). "Pakhand ka jhanda bahut uncha hai, main use neeche kheench launga" (The flag of hypocrisy is very high, I will pull it down). "Akele yeh nahin kar sakta, isliye Shankar ke saath milkar aunga" (I cannot do this alone, so I will come together with Shankar).
The song imagines a new age where the world will be turned upside down, the voiceless will find a voice, and a time of 'Nikhari' (splendor/purification) will arrive. A time of destruction, or Pralay, may even come, where a flame of annihilation will burn, and those who offer sacrifices will themselves be sacrificed. The chorus pleads with Bhole Shankar to untie his matted locks ("Bhole Shankar khol jatayein") so that a fearsome yet just game can be created, so that "Bhairav Digambar" (the naked Bhairav) can end sufferings, and so that a powerful "Naad" (cosmic sound) can burn everything to ashes, causing destruction through forms like Rudra and Veerbhadra.
Later verses contain strong criticism of society. The lyrics ask whether it's right to give pain in return for pain. Shiva is told, "Yeh duniya ab waisi nahin rahi jaise tumne banayi thi" (This world is no longer as you created it). "Tum dhyaan mein magan ho, aur triloki mein ab nikhari nahin hai" (You are absorbed in meditation, and there is no 'Nikhari' left in the three realms). The song also strikes at the duplicity of the modern age, where people offer water to the Shivling in the morning and eat the meat of animals in the evening. It mentions the plight of Nandi and the cruelty towards cows, as well as people like "Bhasmasur" who exploit Shiva worship to intimidate others. In the end, there is a repetition of the same hope that one day everything will change, the voiceless will be heard, and the time of justice will come. With its powerful lyrics and energetic composition, the song takes the listener on a journey of spiritual and social reflection.
