The song "Chunar" by Arijit Singh is an ode to motherhood and the unconditional love of a mother for her child. The opening lines "Jheena Jheena Jheena re Udda Gulaal, Mayi Teri Chunariya Lehrayi" are a tribute to the colorful and vibrant chunari (scarf) worn by every mother in India. The song highlights the bond between a mother and her child, and how the mother's love is a source of guidance and comfort throughout the child's life. The song's repeated use of "Mayi Teri Chunariya Lehrayi" is a reminder that the mother's presence is constant, just like the ever-flying chunari.
The lines, "Jab Jab Mujhpe Hai Utha Sawaal, Mayi Teri Chunariya Lehrayi" convey that whenever the child has faced a dilemma or any uncertainties, he has always turned to his mother for guidance, and her chunari is always there to remind him of her love.
The song also expresses the child's fear of losing his mother, "Tere Bin Main To Adhura raha" and how nothing can ever fill the void of the mother's absence. The powerful line "Jag Se Haara Nahi Main, Khud Se Haara Hoon Maa" showcases the realization that the mother's love is the only thing that can never be lost.
Overall, "Chunar" is a touching tribute to the ever-present and unconditional love of a mother.
