Q 14• This song was probably written in 1925, when
Rajaji had defended the right of an untouchable to enter the shrine of Tirupathi. In this song, Rajaji compares the untouchable's inability to have a glimpse of his favorite God to his own inability to have a glimpse of the invisible creator. A striking aspect of this song is that Rajaji does not elicit any favour from God but only maintains that he has no regrets or dissatisfaction about anything in life. Which popular song?
