this song is 'bai tharo kesariyo hazari gul ro phool' and it talks about the wishes of a good life ahead of his sister by a brother. Yes it also talks about maadliyon(amulet or medallion) pertaining to Lord Krishna to protect her happiness(husband i think) from buri nazar.

allot of the rajasthan/romani music is so enthralling+most beautiful dresses!---ive heard that the desert snakes inspired their dance+movements,+ notice near all rajstan/romi vids have men playing those snake charming horns !just amazing music+visual! these rajastan/romani people are just one of many sanskrit-derived people based in pakistan-india-bangladesh [sindhi,bengali,gujrati,panjabi,marathi,etc,,hindi+urdhu of cours].only differnce is allot of romani left old india.

The journey of the Romany people told through musicians and dancers of India, Egypt, Turkey, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, France, and Spain.

He's singing about a girl he loved who was so beautiful she was dangerous. "Beware the evil eye"

My culture and tradition I love my Banjara community in India.

Growing up my heart was with this rhythm , the culture, the stories & the people I never knew why .. I get frustrated trying to figure out why, but it’s 2nd nature ❤️

OMG! YES!! I love this sequence to death. That girl does the best damn barrel turns in all of the universe! And I positively love that boy's singing. He's so adorable. Latcho Drom is a fantastic film and I'm so happy you shared this with us. ^_^

@MzKatitzi I live in the U.S. and am learning about the Roma and their culture for the first time. I LOVE the music, dance, and costume! I am particularly interested in the Gitano of Andalusia. I can see how this Indian origin had an influence on the development of Flamenco. Wonderful stuff! (Don't ask how this American, with Irish ancestry got interested in the Romani. I can't explain. LOL) Watching the girl in the black dress is like watching a kaleidoscope. Amazing!

This is so interesting, please pay attention to the beginning of the video. I think it has a special message. The way they started making music out of some random sounds is very important. In flamenco, a gorgeous rythm named "MARTINETE" was born exactly as the video shows. Out of small sounds from hammers and other tools for labour. And well.. flamenco is very well known as a dance and culture from the gypsy culture. Excellent job!

I've been studying dance for years and I know I'll never reach such a level of ease and fluidity. She's fantastically wonderful!

Can watch this forever 😍

Wow my dad made me watch this movie when I was younger and I ended up loving it. But i never knew what the name was. Its so good to see these scenes again.thx

God... i cant say nothing... beautiful... just beautiful

A great favorite scene from this movie - amazing how the children's voices are so strong so early. Thanks.

Los amoo

The clip is from "Latcho Drom" a Tony Gatlif movie, traces the movement of gypsies from the subcontinent to Andalusia.

@52 sec, comes the butterfly out of the pupae - director's masterpiece - this movie should have won the Oscar.

I went to the villages in the deserts of Rajasthan, India the summer just before the release of this film. When I saw these images in the film my heart dropped because I had just left these people. This is exactly what you see when traveling there. What a groundbreaking powerful documentary film.

This shows that spanish flamenco started from india

Around 0:52, as she enters the frame - transition from a baby girl to a young woman, wow! Thanks for the post.

these are kalbelia's from thar desert of India which is in state of Rajasthan. They are nomads and iron smiths. History goes that they own their alligience to Maharana Pratap who lost Mewar in battle of haldighati to Akbar. He swore never to settle on any land except Mewar. He could never defeat Akbar and died a nomad. His kinsmen decided to keep his word and till date remain nomads. They are fun loving folks with talents for music and dance. They travel all over Rajasthan in their caravans,

i am proud to be part of the human race

Yeah - most music around the world has at one time or another drawn inspiration from it's environment, like you pointed out, this video underlines that fact - I am glad you liked it.

My favorite movie! My favorite sequence!!! Thanks for putting this on youtube!

it`s amazing,i like very much,too much sincerity.thanks a lot,Mohammed from Holland.

Very nice song

thanks for KALBELIYA! köszönöm, ez inditott el gyermekkoromban, s imádom!!!:)

I am so glad all of you liked the video - please make time to see the movie 'Latcho Drom" if you haven't already - the clip is just one of the many good sequences in the movie

This is just beautiful! Godly touch...

Tolles Video , sehr schön ,und gibt's nicht mehr zu sagen, 👏🎎💝😘

Our people migrated from India 1500 years ago,new findings,according to the scientists. And its true, people from Punjab understand most of our language :)

I have gypsyblood as well. Sinti as a matter of fact. It makes me proud to belong to such a beautiful group of people.:)

Desichhokri is an amazing handle to have, congrats and thanks for your comment. I would like to say something about the word "Gypsy" and why it has been used. The generic term for Nomads from the Thar is Banjaras in India - the closest English approximation is the word Gypsy. As you can see the title does refer to them as Banjaras.

Yup that's what Latcho Drom is all about, the thread that strings all gypsy culture together, from the east to the west - glad you liked the clip.

@pqumar Watching it again and still mesmerized, thank you!

I am glad you liked the movie and this sequence in particular - Thanks.

jai sevalal jai Baba lakki sha banjara jai gour banjara

BANJARS ARE ORGIN FROM AFGHANISTAN GHOR PROVINCE. BANJARAS WERE UNITED BY MAHARAJ RUPSINGH JI AND BEFORE THAT THEIR ARE 4 CASTES CHAVDA(CHAUHANS) RATHORES PARMARS JADHAV

This film is amazing.

This dance inspired me

@AryaVarta glad to hear/read that someone knows about our history :) its true that we "european" gipsys all come originally from India. The first group of Roma-People came to Sweden in the 1500-centurys. Sadly, most countrys in europe truly hate us and wants us to leave.

Rajasthan dance inspires me thanks for people

Yes, incredible.

Magnifique!

I understand each and every word of this song😍love rajasthan😍

Beautiful....Thank you

Girls who learn dancing in the dance clubs, don't try to dance like her because you can't lol

The song name is Oh Kesario Hazari Gul Ro Phool ...

I am so glad - aur ji haan ye Rajasthan hai.

Beautiful.

QUE BONITO VIDEO , MUY BONITO

You are one lucky fellow.

Me encanta!

I am sorry the Banjara clarification was for the forum, I just happened to include it in my reply to you - as far as Kalbelia - it is a word that I was entirely ignorant of so thanks.

Thanks!

I love you my rajasthan

@DanceSuriya So sorry to hear that. The harsh realities of the modern world and new economy. In about a 100 years the Romany way of living shall be mostly gone. Its good to make videos like this for the preservation of a memory. Times have changed.

Video is too short man! Love the song❤ is there a long version of this song?😂❤

Very nice thanks

amazing! I heard the girl's name is Suwa Devi, but what about the boy, does anyone know?

Jai Banjara

thanks!

Thanks for posting this portion of the film. Gatlif's film Mondo has some great music too but not to the same extent as this one.

i totally agree :D

THEY ARE NOT BANJARAS. THEY ARE KALAEBELIYAS

Crazy rthym 🤯

@zukervati - Thank you - I am so glad you like the clip

The real banjaras are the community like lambadi, lamani , lavan, labhan etc who are nomadic traders, merchants and transporters of goods. Because they are nomadic and well-known community that's why people started calling other nomadic community as banjaras. Banjaras/vanjaras means traders . Ex : lambadi means trades of salt . Don't mistake real banjaras with these people, people used to call them as banjaras because they think banjara means nomadic, they have their own community names. The banjaras (traders/transporters) are a semi nomadic community.

Beautiful gadiya lohar

LOVVE! :)

Rangilo Rajasthan

Does anyone knows the title or name of this song?

thanx ;)

I wish this was in 1080p HD. brilliant dance and music.

not just gypsies, all european tribes came from south asia. Not in one migration, but at different times different groups had migrated into europe from the densely populated region of south asia.

does anybody know what the song says?

Bai thaaro kesriyo haazari re gul ro phool, aawe mehn chamke beejli.... Banna-saa thaaro madaliyo bisrayi ne, Kaanhu-de(Lord Krishna) re baabe bisrayi ne. Buhjhere re baabe....... bai-saa ro beero laadlo...

Oprey Romaaleee!!!!

post a video! it's a gorgeous dance!

Can someone post the lyrics and the meaning pls

lindo lindo

@MzKatitzi no, it was much earlier, 1100 I think. read Gypsies, from the Ganges to the Thames By Donald Kenrick

Simply amazing!!! 😍

Sounds so beautiful, is this from a movie?
