Hari Tuma Haro is an Indian bhajan or devotional song by Mirabai, the 15th-century poet saint.
It was Mahatma Gandhi's favorite song, who requested M S Subbulakshmi's rendition for what was to be his last birthday celebrations.
[2] Hindi: Transliteration (ISO15919): English Translation: M. S. Subbulakshmi had previously visited Gandhi in Delhi, and sung Ram Dhun.
Subbulakshmi answered that she wasn't familiar with the song, and suggested that a noted singer should sing the bhajan.
[3][4][5] A few months later, on 30 January 1948, when AIR announced Gandhi's assassination, it was followed by playing of Subbulakshmi's recording of Hari Tuma Haro repeatedly.
