RRR SONG #11 – JIS DIL MEIN BASA THA PYAR TERA

RRR Songs (Songs of Regret, Repentance and Ruefulness)

I started this new series on 17 Jan 21 on my Facebook Group Yaad Kiya Dil Ne. My efforts failed to involve people in writing their own stuff about songs and music rather than copying and pasting from here and there or worse, just sharing url of songs from YouTube. Hence, I had decided to give the group a burial that it deserved rather than making it like thousands of groups on Facebook about songs with nothing unique about them at all.

Hence this series shifted to my page Lyrical.

I hope you liked RRR Song #10: Aakhri geet mohabbat ka suna loon to chalun. Here is the next song:

Song #11
Jis dil mein basa tha pyar tera

Saheli – 1965 Movie

(Poster courtesy: cinestaan)

It was an Arjun Hingorani movie starring Pradeep Kumar as Kailash, Kalpana as Reshma and Vijaya Choudhary as Bela.

The songs of the movie were penned by Indeevar and composed by Kalyanji Anandji.

  1. Jis Dil Me Basa Tha Pyar Tera Us Dil Ko Kabhi Ka Tod Diya (Male) Mukesh
  2. Itna To Keh Do Humse Tumse Bhi Pyar Hai Lata Mangeshkar, Hemant Kumar
  3. Bahane Kyo Karti Ho Hampe Tum Bhi Marti Ho Mohammed Rafi
  4. Jis Dil Me Basa Tha Pyar Tera Us Dil Ko Kabhi Ka Tod Diya (Female) Lata Mangeshkar
  5. Khushi Bhi Aayi To Kuch Aisi Adaa Se Aayi Lata Mangeshkar
  6. Kaahe Tu Been Bajaye Lata Mangeshkar

As you can make out the this song sung by Mukesh and Lata Mangeshkar separately was the best song of the movie.

Lyrics

Indeevar had written the lyrics at a time when he used to write very good and sensitive lyrics and when he hadn’t tied up with Bappi Lahiri to write some 500 trash songs for him for the lure of money.

Here are the most beautiful lyrics:

जिस दिल में बसा था प्यार तेरा
उस दिल को कभी का तोड़ दिया, हाय, तोड़ दिया
बदनाम न होने देंगे तुझे
तेरा नाम ही लेना छोड़ दिया, हाय, छोड़ दिया
जिस दिल में बसा था प्यार तेरा

जब याद कभी तुम आओगे
समझेंगे तुम्हें चाहा ही नहीं
राहों में अगर मिल जाओगे
सोचेंगे तुम्हें देखा ही नहीं
जो दर पे तुम्हारे जाती थीं
उन राहों को हमने छोड़ दिया हाय, छोड़ दिया
जिस दिल में बसा था प्यार तेरा

हम कौन किसी के होते हैं
कोई हमको याद करेगा क्यूं
अपने दो आंसू भी हम पर
कोई बरबाद करेगा क्यूं – २
उस मांझी को भी गिला हमसे
मंझधार में जिसने छोड़ दिया, हाय, छोड़ दिया
जिस दिल में बसा था प्यार तेरा …

Raag Bhairavi

We have seen the handling of Raag Bhairavi by Jaikishan (SJ fame). Here it is Kalyanji Anandji who have thought of Bhairavi to compose it.

Mukesh

When it comes to RRR songs or Songs of Regret, Repentance and Ruefulness, one singer that comes to mind is Mukesh. He was the best in this genre’. Here too he has done a remarkably beautiful job of it.

My Own Poetry

MUFT HUYE BADNAAM

जिन के लिए हम हो गए बदनाम,
उन्हें याद भी नहीं हमारा नाम।

“कौन हो तुम, क्या चाहते हो?”
उनके लबों से सुना यह पयाम।

आपको आंच न आने देंगे,
दूर से ही हम करते हैं सलाम।

गलती हमने प्यार में कर ली,
कभी न सोचा था अंजाम।

पहले पता होता तो कभी न करते,
ऐसा एहसान फरामोश यह काम।

प्लीज हमें अब माफ करो जी,
इश्क़ का नहीं लेंगे कभी भी नाम।

नज़्म लिखते लिखते हो गयी,
सुबह से अब अंधेरी शाम।

रवि हमारा नाम था लेकिन,
आपने बना दिया गुमनाम।

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
