Jeevan Dor Tumhi Sang Baandhi

Raag Yaman Kalyan has been one of my favorite ones in recent times and subconsciously or otherwise I keep humming songs that are based on this raag so today as I sat down to listen to all of these songs on youtube, and discovered this beautiful melody by none other than Lata Mangeshkar. Oh how I wish I can go to Mumbai and meet her once. Just once. I'd feel more blessed. The song is out of this world and it's thanks to LP music. Bharat Vyas has penned this one. Wish I also got to see the video of the song... absolutely love everything about this one!


jeevan dor tumhi sang baandhi (2)
kya toDenge is bandhan ko
jag toofaan aandhi re aandhi

ho na sake kabhi hum tum nyaare (2)
do tan hai ek praaN hamaare
chaahe mile path mein andhiyaare
chaahe ghire ho baadal saare
phir bhi rahoongi tumhaari tumhaari
jeevan dor tumhi sang baandhi
jeevan dor

(so love the violins here!)

yoon ghul-mil rehna jeevan mein
jaise rahe kajra akhiyan mein
teri chhabi chhaayi rahe man mein
tera hi naam rahe dhadkan mein
tere daras ki main pyaasi re pyaasi
jeevan dor tumhi sang baandhi (2)

kaisa mujhe vardaan mila hai (2)
tum kya mile bhagwaan mila hai
ab to janam bhar sang rahega
is mehndi ka rang rahega
tere charaN ki main daasi re daasi
jeevan dor tumhi sang baandhi (2)

Jai Raghunandan Jai Siyaa Raam

It's been a while since I heard a bhajan that sounds so good. Absolutely adore the way the singers have sung this one.

And if it reminds you of other songs such as chandan sa badan that's because they're all based on raag yaman.

I completely adore the woman in this song. I have no idea who that is but she looks gorgeous and I love her jewelry too. If anyone knows who the actors are in this song, please do share. I only know that the youngest kid is Daisy Irani.

I am fascinated with the Ravi music and Shakeel Badayuni lyrics here. Wow! it's just amazing...


M: shri raam chandra aashrit paarijaataha
samast kalyaan gunaabhiraamaha
sitaa mukhaamburuhu chancharikaha

aa aa aa... aa aa aa... aa aa aa aa aa...

M: jai raghunandan jai siyaaraam
Ch: jai raghunandan jai siyaaraam

F: hey dukhbhanjan tumhe pranaam
Ch: hey dukhbhanjan tumhe pranaam

F: bhraat bhaat ko hey parameshwar sneh tumhi sikhlaate

aa aa aa... aa aa aa aa (How sweet does she sound!)
bhraat bhaat ko hey parameshwar sneh tumhi sikhlaate
M: nar naari ke prem ki jyoti jag mein tumhi jalaate

Ch: jai raghunandan jai siyaaraam (2)

Bandaa parvar thaam lo jigar...

For me, if one movie that can come close to Golmaal, it would be Phir Wohi Dil Laya Hoon. Like Golmaal, I must have watched it more than 20 times. It is one of those movies that falls under the "most-entertaining" category. That could be a personal thing too as I truly enjoy the music, songs, story, acting along with the silliness and everything else about the movie.

It's so much fun to watch these songs over and over again. Jeeps and the tall trees remind me of another OPN-Majrooh-Rafi song pukaarta chala hoon main. The best part about this one are the music, lyrics and singer's voice along with all the horse-carriges/taanga and Popatlaal's comedy. And for some reason, everytime I hear the taanga music in a song, it makes me feel that it must be OPN song.

Joy Mukherjee becomes a pathan to disguise himself in this one and Asha Parekh as her beautiful bossy self with a cute hat. It's a lot of fun to watch them. They had pretty good onscreen chemistry. As for the location, I wonder what place this is. Mona's friend mentions Barahmulla right before the song but I am not sure whether that's where it is.

If you are watching the extended clip below, check out the comedy parts of Difu (Rajendranath) in and around the song for additional entertainment. :)

Sharm aati hai magar...

One of my favorite songs of Saira Banu. Of course, it's not only her who makes it so but all other artists that make this one what it is, a gem that is. Absolutely love the music and lyrics of this one along with the singer! It's fun to watch it as well.

Today happens to be Saira Banu's birthday as well so wishing her lots of happiness, health and all that is beautiful just as she is. :) As I've said in the past too, this woman knows how to wear white sarees the best! I love that about her.


sharm aati hai magar aaj yeh kehnaa hoga (2)
ab hume aap ke kadmon hi mein rehnaa hoga
sharm aati hai magar

aap se rooth ke hum jitnaa jiye khaak jiye (2)
kayi ilzaam liye aur kayi ilzaam diye
aaj ke baad magar kuchh bhi na kehnaa hoga
ab hume aap ke kadmon hi mein rehnaa hoga
sharm aati hai magar aaj yeh kehnaa hoga

(absolutely love the music here)

der ke baad yeh samjhe hai mohabbat kyaa hai
ab hume chaand ke jhoomar ki zuroorat kyaa hai
pyaar se badhke bhalaa kaun sa gehna hoga (what beautiful eyes she has got in this part of the clip)
ab hume aap ke kadmon hi mein rehnaa hoga
sharm aati hai magar aaj yeh kehnaa hoga

aap ke pyaar ka beemaar hamaara dil hai (2)
aap ke gham ka khareedaar hamaara dil hai
aap ko apna koyi dard na sehnaa hoga
ab hume aap ke kadmon hi mein rehna hoga

sharm aati hai magar aaj yeh kehnaa hoga
ab hume aap ke kadmon hi mein rehnaa hoga
sharm aati hai hm hm hm...

Video clip from film (see from 3:15 min)


Audio with all three stanzas (some other singer):

Chaand Taktaa Hai Idhar

Best part about listening to songs with Papu is that I get to discover new songs out of nowhere. This one also came about like that. He thought it was "chaand dhalta??? hai idhar" and then we googled to find the right song. :)

Suman Kalyanpur has never sounded sweeter. Here once again she creates magic with Rafi sahab. What a sweet melody!

Music is of Roshan sahab and Sahirji's lyrics are a nice change to hear from our regular Hindi lyrics.


M: chaand taktaa hai idhar (2)
aao kahin chhup jaaye
F: kahin laage na nazar
aao kahin chhup jaaye
chaand taktaa hai idhar

M: phool shaakhon se jhuke jaate hai hothon ki taraf (2)
jhonkhe balkhaake mude aate hai
ho mude aate hai zulfon ki taraf
F: aa aa aa
chhod kar in ki dagar (2)
aao kahin chhup jaaye
kahin laage na nazar
aao kahin chhup jaaye
chaand taktaa hai idhar

F: main hi main dekhoon sajan doojaa na dekhe tohe (2)
kaa khabar kaun sautaniyaan toraa
ho sautaniyaan toraa man mohe
M: ho ho ho...
dil pe daalo na asar (2)
(aao kahin chhup jaaye
chaand taktaa hai idhar) (2)

M: saari nazaron se pare saare nazaaron se pare (2)
aasmaanon pe chamakte hue
ho chamakte hue taaron se pare
F: aa aa aa

aao kahin chhup jaaye

Main Kyaa Jaanu Kyaa Jaadu Hai

Discovered this melodious song while listening to some old songs on this blog. I completely adore how he sings the "kyaa" before "jaadu" each and every single time.

The music is of Pankaj Mullick and beautiful but very little amounts of lyrics are by Kidar Sharma.


main kyaa jaanu kyaa jaadu hai
jaadu hai (2)
main kyaa jaanu kyaa jaadu hai
in do matwaale nainon mein

main kyaa jaanu kyaa jaadu hai

ek ek athaa saagar sa hai (2)

(man poochh rahaa hai ab mujhse
nainon ne kahaa hai kyaa tujhse) (2)
jab nain mile

jab nain mile nainon ne kahaa

A couple of other singers sing this KLS song and the clips have clearer audio:

Dheere dheere se palken uthaana...

I discovered this song just randomly as it was sitting on my ipod being ignored. I saw Sonu and Shreya's names and realized I should've already listened to it. If you've never heard this one, don't watch the video, just listen to it. You'll totally fall in love with it. Just be warned that the video is bakwaas of sorts. The music is nice too.


M: dheere dheere se palken uthaana
dheere dheere se palken jhukaana
dheere dheere se dil ko churaana
dheere dheere se apnaa banaana
dheere dheere dheere (2)
yeh tum ne kya kar diya

F: dheere dheere se nazare milaana
dheere dheere se hum ko rijhaana
dheere dheere se dil mein samaana
dheere dheere se apnaa banaana
dheere dheere dheere (2)

M: roshan haseen chaand jaisa yeh chehra

M: gaane lagi hai khaamoshiyaa
F: dheere dheere dheere (2)

M: dheere dheere se palken uthaana

Duniya banaane waale... pyaar ki aag mein...

While listening to the songs of film Ziddi, I discovered so many songs that I had missed out on watching the film years ago. This being one of them. It sounds and looks comedy, but has very deep feelings about a broken hearted person. Mannada gives voice to Mehmood once again to create this magical number. I still can't believe I missed this song.

At about 3:30 mins in the song, you hear the famous music that has been played in many many songs like nazare mili dil dhadaka, dole dole dil dole bole dil bole, and of course from Come September, and many more.


duniya banaane waale sun se meri kahaani
roye meri mohabbat
tapde (2) meri jawaani

pyaar ki aag mein tan badan jal gayaa (2)
jaane phir kyon jalaati hai duniya mujhe (2)
pyaar ki aag mein tan badan jal gayaa

thandi aahen bharu paagalon ki tarhaa
main to rotaa phiru baadalon ki tarhaa
arre main to ho ho ho rotaa phiru
main to rotaa phiru baadalon ki tarhaa
thandi aahen bharu paagalon ki tarhaa
jaane phir kyon, phir kyon
jaane phir kyon rulaati hai duniya mujhe
pyaar ki aag mein tan badan jal gayaa (2)

baat jab main karoon mooh se nikle dhuaa
jal gayaa (2) mere dil kaa jahaan
baat jab main karoon mooh se nikle dhuaa (2)
arre jal gayaa
jal gayaa mere dil ka jahaan
jaane phir kyon, phir kyon
jaane phir kyon sataati hai duniya mujhe
pyaar ki aag mein tan badan jal gayaa (2)

ishq mujhko nachaataa rahaa hai sadaa
kyaa kyaa sapne dikhaata rahaa hai sadaa
ishq mujhko nachaataa rahaa hai sadaa (2)
kyaa kyaa sapne dikhaata rahaa hai sadaa

Madhuban mein raadhikaa naache re...

I now remember this entire song by heart. After taking up the challenge to choreograph the whole thing for the baby shower of our dear sister P, M and I literally went crazy for this song. We both adore it and enjoyed it thoroughly dancing on it. And while doing that, just realized and appreciated at each and every moment for the creators of the song to make this one possible. It is one amazing song! The next one that we want to chreograph is hopefully another Radha-Krishna song.

This one is so beautiful to listen to as well as watch. What awesome singing of Rafi sahab and then Dilip Kumar's lipsync with it and Naushad's music just make me go "waah waah!!" and who wouldn't when Radhika is dancing to Giridhar playing His flute. :)

Growing up next to Sben in Vallabh Vidyanagar was the best because I got to listen to a ton of Lata Mangeshkar solos on radio and tape player non-stop. She being a huge fan of the haunting melodies of LM, I got to hear this one along with many other favorites...

Panthi hoon main us path ka...

This is probably the best song of Kishore Kumar or so I feel. I've never heard a song of him like this one... it's out of this world, the music, lyrics and the voice.. waah waah Kishoreda, kya baat hai! You truly do fall in the same class as Saigal, Rafi and other singers. Hats off!

The song has been written, produced, directed and composed by him.


(panthi hoon main us path kaa ant nahin jiskaa
aas meri hai jiski dishaa aadhaar mere man kaa) (2)
panthi hoon main us path kaa

is path par dekhe kitne sukh dukh ke mele (2)

jaane kab tak chalnaa hai mujhe is jeevan ke saath
panthi hoon main us path kaa ant nahin jiska
aas meri hai jiski dishaa aadhaar mere man kaa
panthi hoon main us path kaa

mujhko raah dikhaaye palchhin ke phulzaare
pathik mere path ke sab taare aur neelaa aakaash

Muskuraa ke dekh... zaraa...

It was Shaan's voice that made me pay attention to this song more than anything.. and because it was too long and didn't finish quickly, I actually got to hear/listen to more of it while I turned the radio on in the morning. And I hate to admit it but I do like it. Listening to it third time makes me appreciate even the lyrics now...

Watching the video reminds me of kabhi kabhi aditi... song quite a lot. Looks like a brand new movie so no idea of the actors, but do give it a listen.


muskuraa ke dekh, zaraa muskuraa ke dekh, haaye muskuraa ke dekh zaraa
muskuraaye raat ke baad hi subaah
muskuraaye kaanton mein phool manchalaa
mushkilen to mehmaan hai, mushkilen to aasaan hai
shart bas itni hai, unpe tu muskaaye
muskuraa ke dekh, zaraa muskuraa ke dekh, muskuraa ke dekh zaraa

toota ik taara, khaali kahaan hai aasmaan
laakhon ho armaan, hasta rahe jo dil sadaa
hans hans ke yaaraa (2)
gham ko zaraa tu rulaa ke dekh
muskuraa ke dekh, zaraa muskuraa ke dekh, haaye muskuraa ke dekh zaraa

haste honthon pe roti aankhen khoob hai
gham hi khushi ka sach poochho to mehboob hai
daaman khushi ka (2)
us mein tu gham ko sajaa ke dekh
muskuraa ke dekh, zaraa muskuraa ke dekh, muskuraa ke dekh zaraa

jaage hai chandaa aur khwaabon mein khoya jahaan
jalke suraj bhi roshan kare saara jahaan
tu unke jaisaa (2)
in raaton mein jag-magaake dekh
muskuraa ke dekh, zaraa muskuraa ke dekh, muskuraa ke dekh zaraa

roke kismat pe tu aise hi na baithna
khaayi hai thokar kyon dil ne bhi yeh sochnaa
dil ko lagaa par hooo dil ko lagaa par
duniya ko bhi aazmaa ke dekh
muskuraa ke dekh, zaraa muskuraa ke dekh, haaye muskuraa ke dekh zaraa

muskuraaye raat ke baad hi subaah
muskuraaye kaanton mein phool manchalaa
mushkilen to mehmaan hai, mushkilen to aasaan hai
shart bas itni hai, unpe tu muskaaye

Aate Jaate Hanste Gaate...

When I get tired of watching all other movies, I watch Rajshri movies, specially one of Maine Pyaar Kiya, Hum Aap Ke Hai Kaun or Hum Saath Saath Hai. Last night while watching HAHK, I realized how beautifully they have picturized the title song. It reminded me of the title songs of James Bond movies, because these are the kinds of film that have a fantastic title song - in one way or the other. So then I decided to watch Maine Pyaar Kiya, yet another Rajshri favorite of mine that has a beautiful title song. I do like HAHK title song better than this, but it's such beautiful one I decided to put this one on here first. Enjoy!


M: I love you...
F: I love you...
Both: I love you...

M: aate jaate hanste gaate
socha tha maine man mein kayi baar
woh pehli nazar halka sa asar
karta hai kyon is dil ko beqaraar
ruk ke chalna chalke rukna
na jaane tumhen hai kis ka intezaar
tera woh yakeen kahin main to nahin
lagta hai yehi kyon mujhko baar baar
yehi sach hai shaayad maine pyaar kiya
haan haan tumse maine pyaar kiya

F: aate jaate hanste gaate
socha tha maine man mein kayi baar
hothon ki kali kuchh aur khili
yeh dil pe hua hai kis ka ikhtiyaar
tum kaun ho batla to do
kyon karne lagi main tum pe aitbaar
khaamosh rahoon ya main keh doon
ya kar loon main chupke se ye sweekaar
yehi sach hai shaayad maine pyaar kiya
haan haan tumse maine pyaar kiya .

Deewaane Hai Deewaanon Ko

It's amazing to be able to analyze the lyrics and music of favorite songs, and if you can do that on a daily basis, it's even more fun... that's how we remembered this one today. The lyrics are so beautiful and fun to hum along with the song and sweet voices of Lataji and Rafi sahab just add to the charm.

When I first watched this film almost a decade ago, it was amazing to discover that the actor is none other than the lyricist himself. Now we don't get to see that often in HFM, do we?


M: aap ke dil mein jo thodi si jagaah mil jaaye
apne armaanon ki betaab kali khil jaaye

M: deewaane hai deewaano ko na ghar chaahiye na dar chaahiye
mohabbat bhari ek nazar chaahiye nazar chaahiye
F: jawaani mein jawaani ke sahaare ho jawaan mere meherbaan
mujhe tu hi tu humsafar chaahiye humsafar chaahiye
Both: deewaane hai deewaano ko na ghar chaahiye
mohabbat bhari ek nazar chaahiye nazar chaahiye

M: hai sar pe humaare khulaa aasmaan khulaa aasmaan (2)
F: hamaare liye hai yehi aashiyaan yehi aashiyaan
M: bina pyaar ke zindagi kuchh nahin (2)
jahaan pyaar hai har khushi hai wahin
F: ho phoolon bhari chaahe chaahe kaanton bhari haan kaanton bhari
chale jis pe tu woh dagar chaahiye dagar chaahiye

Both: deewaane hai deewaano ko na ghar chaahiye na dar chaahiye
mohabbat bhari ek nazar chaahiye nazar chaahiye

M: nigaahon mein aise ishaare hue ishaare hue (2)
F: ke dil ne kahaa hum tumhaare hue tumhaare hue
M: nazar ban gayi hai zubaan pyaar mein (2)
mazaa aa gayaa jeet kaa haar mein
F: milega wohi maangoge jo dildaar se magar pyaar se
duwaaon mein apni asar chaahiye asar chaahiye

Both: deewaane hai deewaano ko na ghar chaahiye na dar chaahiye
mohabbat bhari ek nazar chaahiye nazar chaahiye
jawaani mein jawaani ke sahaare ho jawaan mere meherbaan
mujhe tu hi tu humsafar chaahiye humsafar chaahiye

Dheere Dheere... Tum Paas Aa Rahe Ho

I had not listened to this one for the longest time until I got hold of the music of Veer Zaara. May be it's not in the film? I think because I haven't listened to it while watching the film numerous times... and it's not as famous may be because it has that ghazal touch to it. It's become one of my favorites of this film.


M: dheere dheere (2)
aankhon mein chhaa rahe ho
tum paas aa rahe ho
F: chupke chupke (2)
dil mein samaa rahe ho
tum paas aa rahe ho
M: dheere dheere
F: chupke chupke

M: jhukti hui yeh palken khulte hue yeh gesoo (2)
yeh sharm ki adaayen woh shokhiyon kaa jaadoo
F: kaise kaise (2)
sapne dikhaa rahe ho
tum paas aa rahe ho
M: dheere dheere
F: chupke chupke

(don't forget to enjoy the most divine music here)

F: phoolon bhare nazaare yeh khushbuon ke dere (2)
lagte hai khwaab jaise yeh shaam yeh savere
M: haule haule (2)
armaan jagaa rahe ho
tum paas aa rahe ho
F: chupke chupke
M: dheere dheere
aankhon mein chhaa rahe ho
F: tum paas aa rahe ho
M: aa haa haa haa ho ho ho
F: hmm la la la

Bhaarat Ki Ek Sannari

This is one of my favorite songs! Today being Ram Navmi, I just couldn't stop humming it so decided to type up the lyrics. Wish I had a clearer version of the song so I can get entire song lyrics. In any case, it's a gem! Brings tears to eyes listening to the song, thinking what life of a Maryada Purushottam was like and the greatness of His ardhaangini!


Bhaarat ki ek sannari ki hum katha sunaate hai
Hum katha sunaate hai

Mithila ki raaj dulaari ki hum katha sunaate hai
Hum katha sunaate hai
Bhaarat ki ek sannari ki hum katha sunaate hai
Hum katha sunaate hai

Shiv dhanushya raam ne todaa (2)
Milaa chandra chakor kaa jodaa (2)
Janakpuri se todaa naataa, awadhpuri se jodaa (2)
Komal thi woh kali, sukho mein pali, bano mein chali, bahut dukh paayi
Sun kar uss ki vyathaa nain bhar aate hai
Hum katha sunaate hai

Bhaarat ki ek sannari ki hum katha sunaate hai
Hum katha sunaate hai

Raavan ne chhal kari, Siya ko hari, vidhi kya kari, jo?? van paayi?
Seeta! Seeta! kare virah mein chare
Vano mein phire
Vikal raghuraayi (2)

(dialogs)

Bhaarat ki ek sannari ki hum katha sunaate hai
Hum katha sunaate hai

Pavan-putra wahaan aaye (2)
Sudhi ko dhyaaye yukti bahu keeni piya sudhi paayi?
Kaam kop kar badhe lanka par chadhe
Phook dayi lanka
Siya lautaayi (3)

Jaise tel mitti tel mein baaT
baaT mein tej prakaashe
Tasu raam hriday mein Siya
Siya hi yeh raam hi bhaase

Kya bina praaN ke amar rahi kahi dehi (2)
Kya yehi raam darbaar
kahaan vaidehi (3)
