Chehre pe giri zulfein kah do to hataa doon
Posted on: November 30, 2008
“suraj” the biggest musical blockbuster of the year 1966 was full of extremely popular songs.
I inadvertently posted the same “Suraj” song- viz “itna hai tumse pyaar” twice in this blog. To make amends, I am replacing this song in this page by another song from the same movie.
This song is a”teasing song” where Rajendra Kumar indulges in what is called “eve teasing” in India. Some English language purists wonder if Indians also have a term called “adam” tease when it is a female teasing a male.
The eve teaser is also called roadside Romeo in Indian lingo. In movies, the roadside Romeo usually gets the girl in the end, but in the real life, “eve teasing” is viewed seriously and it is a punishable offence in Indian Penal code, no less (under sections 294 and 509). In movies, we hear a lot about section 302 of IPC(aka dafa 302 taziraate Hind),under which many characters are seen getting prosecuted in the court, but I have yet to an eve teasing hero being hauled in the court under dafa 294 and 509 of taaziraate Hind. I hope some makers of art movie will someday make a realistic movie, in which the hero would be shown teasing the heroine singing a song , and followed by that, he would be booked for eve teasing and made to do the rounds of courts. 😉 How is that for a story idea ?
This song somehow had not become as popular as some of the other songs from this movie. Looking in isolation, this song sung by Rafi is an outstanding song. It was picturised on Rajendra Kumar and Vyjyanti Mala. Hasrat Jaipuri was the lyricist and Shankar Jaikishan had composed the music.
Song-Chehre pe giri zulfein (Suraj)(1966) Singer-Rafi, Lyrics-Hasrat Jaipuri, MD-Shankar Jaikishan
Lyrics
chehre pe giri zulfein kah do to hataa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
ik phool tere joode mein kah do to lagaa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
ye roop, haseen dhoop, bahut khoob hai lekin
ulfat ke binaa pheekaa chehraa teraa rangeen
ye roop, haseen dhoop, bahut khoob hai lekin
ulfat ke binaa pheekaa chehraa teraa rangeen
ik deep muhabbat kaa, kah do to jalaa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
chehre pe giri zulfein kah do to hataa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
ik aag, lagi hai, mere zakhm-e-jigar mein
ye kaisaa karishmaa hai teri shokh nazar mein
ik aag, lagi hai, mere zakhm-e-jigar mein
ye kaisaa karishmaa hai teri shokh nazar mein
jo baat ruki lab par, kah do to bataa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
chehre pe giri zulfein kah do to hataa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
sarkaar, huaa pyaar, khataa hamse huyi hai
ab dil mein tum hi tum ho, ye jaan bhi teri hai
sarkaar, huaa pyaar, khataa hamse huyi hai
ab dil mein tum hi tum ho, ye jaan bhi teri hai
ab cheer ke is dil ko kah do to dikhaa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
chehre pe giri zulfein kah do to hataa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf
ik phool tere joode mein kah do to lagaa doon main
gustaakhi maaf, gustaakhi maaf

The link provided in the post is the video link so one can watch the video. So I am unable to understand how you could only listen to the audio.

Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this song after a long time.
I wouldn’t say this is not a popular song, just a bit overshadowed by other songs of the movie.
The movie, like you say, is full of famous songs.
