Beeti na bitaayi rainaa
Posted on: May 11, 2009
All these days, I was under the impression that I had already posted this song in the blog. It was only yesterday that I noticed that I had posted another song from “Parichay” , and not this one.
So here is this song “beeti na bitaayi raina” from “Parichay” (1972). Raina (night) is a favourite word of Gulzar, and it is he who has written this wonderful song. R D Burman tended to compose great songs out of Gulzar’s lyrics, and this song in this movie was the first occasion when the two came together. And the result- this wonderful song that earned widespread critical acclaim. This song sung by Lata and Bhupinder won a few awards too, if I recall correctly.
This song was picturised ( wonderfully, let me add) on Jaya Bhaduri and Sanjeev Kumar.
This song is a masterpiece. Enjoy !

Lyrics
beeti na bitaayi rainaa birhaa ki jaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa birhaa ki jaayi rainaa
bheegi huyi ankhiyon ne laakh bujhaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa birhaa ki jaayi rainaa
bheegi huyi ankhiyon ne laakh bujhaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa
beeti huyi batiyaan koyi dohraaye
bhoole huye naamon se koyi to bulaaye
beeti huyi batiyaan koyi dohraaye
bhoole huye naamon se koyi to bulaaye
chaand …
ho o
o~ chaand ki bin deewaani, bin deewaani ratiyaa
jaagi huyi ankhiyon mein raat na aayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa birhaa ki jaayi rainaa
bheegi huyi ankhiyon ne laakh bujhaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa
yug aate hain aur yug jaaye
chhoti chhoti yaadon ke pal nahin jaaye
yug aate hain aur yug jaaye
chhoti chhoti yaadon ke pal nahin jaaye
jhooth se kaali laage, laage kaali ratiyaan
roothi huyin ankhiyon ne laakh manaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa birhaa ki jaayi rainaa
bheegi huyi ankhiyon ne laakh bujhaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi rainaa birhaa ki jaayi rainaa
beeti na bitaayi
