Lyrics

Meaning

Hari is among the most common names of Vishnu, carrying senses of one who removes or takes away — that is, who removes sorrow and sin. Songs use it interchangeably with Vishnu's other names, and lineage references such as 'the nephew of Hari' identify figures by their relation to him.
