"Dhana Dhanya Pushpa Bhara" () is a Bengali language patriotic song composed by the Indian litterateur Dwijendra Lal Roy in 1905. The song was composed in the context of the First Partition of Bengal and the Swadeshi Movement. It is one of the most popular Bengali patriotic songs, both in Bangladesh and India.
The first partition of Bengal came to effect on 20 July 1905, where the British colonial government split the unified province of Bengal Presidency into two parts along communal linesâÂÂEast Bengal and Assam having a majority of Muslims and West Bengal having a majority of Hindus. The event triggered a nationalist surge particularly among the Bengali Hindus, who claimed this move as politically motivated. Along with a host of others, songs such as this were meant to rekindle the unified spirit of Bengal and to raise public consciousness against the communal political divide. Dwijendra Lal Roy wrote the song during this time in 1905. The song was later included on his play Shajahan in 1907.
The song was one of the various songs that were used to encourage the Bangladeshi freedom fighters during the Liberation War of Bangladesh. During the drafting of the Constitution of Bangladesh in 1972, two songs were proposed for the national anthem of the country, the "Amar Sonar Bangla" by Rabindranath Tagore and "Dhana Dhanya Pushpa Bhara". But at the end, Amar Sonar Bangla was selected.
The song ranked 10th in the list of the twenty greatest Bengali songs of all time in a 2006 survey conducted by BBC Bangla. The song became popular during the July Revolution of Bangladesh when thousands of protesters chorused the song on 3 August 2024.
