Renowned folk lyricist Ramnandan ‘Agyani’ brings a fresh charm and vibrancy in his latest creation, “”Nayaki Dulhin.”” The work exudes naturalness in both emotion and language. Folk songs are heartfelt tales of life, and when blended with the pleasing rhythm of poetry’s inherent beauty, they become cherished adornments. These songs, free from the constraints of linguistic discipline, emerge melodiously from the hearts of people, offering the joy of beautiful literature. By emphasizing implicit meanings over explicit ones, these folk songs attain the glory of excellent poetry, deeply impacting the masses. Folk songs reflect the civilization, culture, social, economic, and educational consciousness of a region.

Ramnandan ‘Agyani’ fills “”Nayaki Dulhin”” with a rich array of themes. From patriotic songs and farmers’ calls to progress songs, dispute songs, and comforting songs, each piece is impactful. The traditional songs for occasions like Raksha Bandhan, swings, and Holi vividly showcase the culture. As a lyricist who is also a singer, Agyani infuses melody, rhythm, and tone with heartfelt passion, creating a pure and unadulterated taste for the audience. His success is evident, as various platforms have honored him. His simplicity and straightforwardness have made him popular, and readers and listeners will feel as if the songs were written just for them.

Agyani’s songs emanate from the depths of his heart and touch the soul.

The literary, social, and cultural essence of Bakhri town is captured in the song “”Jai Bakhri.”” Addressing road safety, a significant issue, the song provides valuable guidance for today’s enthusiastic youth.

Thus, “”Nayaki Dulhin”” possesses all the qualities of an excellent collection. Adorned with delightful and flavorful songs, this book is destined to be cherished.
