Ram Naam Ras Pije Manwa

\"Ram Naam Ras Pije Manwa\" is a devotional track from the album Andolan, released on December 31, 1951, under the Saregama label. The song features vocal performances by Arun Kumar and Usha in a duet format. The composition adopts a bhajan style rooted in North Indian devotional traditions, with lyrical themes centered on the worship of Lord Rama.

The track occupies the fourth position in the album’s sequence and runs for 2 minutes and 56 seconds. The original release format is unclear, but the recording became available in later decades through digital media distributions. Saregama, the label responsible for the release, was a prominent publisher of Indian classical, devotional, and film music during the mid-20th century.

Lyrical content emphasizes the consumption of divine nectar (ras) through the chanting of Rama’s name, a motif common in Ram bhakti traditions. The musical arrangement reflects the era’s recording practices, though specific instrumental or compositional details remain undocumented. The album Andolan itself contains multiple devotional tracks, but further information about its full tracklist, contributing artists beyond Arun Kumar and Usha, or production personnel is not widely verified.

The song’s reception and historical impact are not extensively recorded, but its inclusion in Saregama’s catalog suggests regional circulation during the early 1950s. Later digital reissues preserved the track for contemporary audiences, though no official music videos or live performance documentation from the period exist. The recording stands as an example of mid-century devotional music blending classical influences with accessible melodic structures.
