Rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
Posted on: November 15, 2008
This song is a very popular song from my childhood. As happened with me most of the time, I would have no clue about such songs except the name of the singer. And with time I would forget all about such songs as they went out of circulation.
“Rut hai milan ki saathi mere aaja” was one such song. I was a typical bubbly Rafi number. I thought that it must be from a Jeetendra movie like “Carawan”, “Jeene ki raah” etc.
Now that I have discovered its video, I find that the song is from a 1971 movie called Mela. Sanjay Khan and Mumtaz figure in this song. The movie is forgotten, but the music deserves to come back into cirulation, if this song is any indication. Majrooh Sultanpuri’s lyrics has been set to a racy tune by R D Burman. Rafi and Lata have sung this song with gutso.
I notice that the tune of this song is very similar to the tune of “sholay” number “koi haseena jab rooth jaati hai”. R D Burman, the music director of both the movies, must have used the same tune in that “Sholay” number as well.
It is a racy number, just like the “sholay” number.

Lyrics
ho
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
mohe kahin le chal baanhon ke sahaare
baaghon mein kheton mein nadiyaa kinaare
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
ho koyi sajanvaa aajaa tere binaa
thandi hawaa sahi naa jaaye aajaa o aaja
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
mohe kahin le chal baanhon ke sahaare
haan baaghon mein kheton mein nadiyaa kinaare
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
ho jaise rut pe chhaye hariyaali
gahri hoye mukh pe rangat neha ki
kheton ke sang jhoomen pavan mein
phulvaa sapnon ke daali armaan ki
tere sivaa kachhu soojhe naahin ab to saanware
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
mohe kahin le chal baanhon ke sahaare
haan baaghon mein kheton mein nadiyaa kinaare
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
o oye sajaniyaa jaan le le koyi mose
ab to laage nainaa tose
aajaa o aajaa
o man kahtaa hai duniyaa taj ke jaani bas jaaun
teri aankhon mein
aur main gori mahki-mahki
ghul ke rah jaaun
teri saanson mein
ho ik dooje mein yoon kho jaayen jag dekhaa kare
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
mohe kahin le chal baanhon ke sahaare
baaghon mein kheton mein nadiyaa kinaare
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re
rut hai milan ki saathi mere aa re

Nice song.
Btw, Mela was a big hit movie.
With Sanjay Khan and Feroze Khan.
And other hit songs also.
Like “kya soch raha re” and “gori ke haath mein”.
