Tohre naina bade.. dagaabaaz re..

I love new songs like these that leave me wanting to listen to the songs again even after the movie is over. Very few new movies actually do that trick, and Dabangg 2 is definitely one of them. I think the singers and music have something to do with this feeling. Greedy me wants one more stanza in this one too. If only the lyricist was generous and bathroom breaks lasted longer. Hahaha.. do people still take bathroom breaks in Indian movie theaters when songs come up? I wonder. That reminds me of the scene from Golmaal (1979) when Helen's "mungda" song plays and Ramprasad is out changing clothes from work clothes to evening clothes in movie theater bathroom.

Back to our song: doesn't the music here remind you of music of abhi na jaao chhod kar, especially the ending part of the old song?

dagaabaaz re haaye dagaabaaz re
tohre naina bade dagaabaaz re
ho tohre naina... haaye
naina naina naina... haaye

("abhi na jaao" kind of music plays here)

dagaabaaz re haaye dagaabaaz re
tohre naina bade dagaabaaz re
kal mile.. haan kal mile hoye
yeh hum ko bhool gaye aaj re haaye
dagaabaaz re haaye dagaabaaz re
tohre naina bade dagaabaaz re

(this music reminds me of yet another Hindi film oldie, can't recall it though; love the harmonium here!)

kaahe khafaa aise chulbul se bulbul
kaahe na tu maane batiyaan haaye
F: kaahe padaa peechhe jaan pe bairi
na jaanu kyaa tori batiyaan haaye
M: zindagi apni hum tohka daan dai de
muskuraa ke jo maange praan dai de
kal mile.. ho kal mile... haaye
kal mile bhi hum ko bhool gaye aaj re
haaye dagaabaaz re (2)
tohre naina bade dagaabaaz re
tohre naina
dagaa (3)
dagaabaaz re
re dagaabaaz re
naina re

(dartaa jahaan hum se hum to usse darte
ih sab jaane mori raniyaa haaye) (2)
F: maskaa lagaao na chhodo ji chhodo
samajhti hai tori dhaniyaa haaye
M: is adaa pe to hum qubaan gaye ji
tohri naanaa main hum hi hai jaan gaye ji
kal mile... ho kal mile haaye
kal mile re hum ka bhul gaye aaj re
dagaabaaz re (2)
tohre naina bade dagaabaaz re
dagaabaaz (3) re haaye
tohre naina bade dagaabaaz re
