Chalo ab kehna maan jaao
Posted on: August 13, 2012
I have mentioned it in the past that Rafi and Geeta Dutt have sung about 155 duets together and the majority of these duets are not under O P Nayyar or S D Burman’s music direction, but under the baton of Chitragupta.
Here is one such Rafi Geeta Dutt duet. It is from “Baaraat” (1960). The song is picturised on Ajit and Shakila, with Mukri and another lady also visible in the picturisation. I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify this lady playing the saheli of Shakila.
Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist of this song which is composed by Chitragupta. From the lyrics , it is clear that the song is inspired from the well known Geeta Dutt song Ye lo main haari piya huyi teri jeet re (Aar Paar)(1956) and also the Asha Bhonsle-Rafi duet song Accha jee main haari chalo maan jaao naa(Kaala Paani)(1958)
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by nahm.

Lyrics(Provided by nahm)
aji ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
aji ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
chhodo meraa rastaa
koyi nahin jiss kaa
uss ki guzar bhi hoti
goriye
aji ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
main hoon gareeb anjaana re
raahi akela pyaar ka
de de koyi nazraana re
lag rahaa melaa pyaar ka
de de koyi nazraana re
lag rahaa melaa pyaar ka
laaya thha deewaana
dil nazraana
tum chaaho heera moti
goriye
chalo ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
chalo ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
mil gayee thhi ek baawaariya
guzri huyi barsaat mein
soch rahaa kyaa saanwariyaa
daab ke ungli daant mein
soch rahaa kyaa saanwariyaa
daab ke ungli daant mein
kaahe lagee pyaari
mujh ko tumhaari
ankhiyaan moti moti
goriye
chalo ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
chhodo meraa rastaa
koyi nahin jiss kaa
uss ki guzar bhi hoti
goriye
chalo ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
chalo ab kehna maan jaao
tum hi bade main chhoti
