Jab jab apna mel huaa
Posted on: January 22, 2009
Sonik Omi, who were assistants to Madan Mohan for a long time, tended to suffer a fate similar to Madan Mohan as independent music directors.They would create outstanding music, but the movies where their music would be included would fail at the box office without a whimper. As a result, the career of Sonic Omi failed to take off despite the brilliance of their music.
Here is a song from a Sonik Omi movie. Listen to this song and also watch the picturisation, The song is of such a high quality, but the picturisation is such a let down.
And in fact this song is a perfect representative of most Sonik Omi songs- viz great songs, lousy picturisation.
Song-Jab jab apna mel hua (Mahua) (1969) Singers- Rafi, Sulakshana Pandit, Lyrics- Qamar Jalalabadi, MD- Sonik Omi
Lyrics
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
janam-janam tak toot sake naa kabhi saath hamaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
tere gham ko gale lagaa ke ho apni khushiyaan main tujhpe lutaa doon
gar thodaa saa tu muskaraa de ho to veeraane mein kaliyaan khilaa doon
ho sharmaataa hai kaliyon ko bhi ye bairi roop tumhaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
chhed ke apne pyaar kaa naghmaa ho tere dil mein taraane jagaa doon
teri aankh ke aansoo le ke ho naye chaand-sitaare banaa doon
ho neele gagan par deep jale hain zaraa dekho nazaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
laakh janam ke armaanon kaa ho koyi rangeen fasaanaa banaa doon
lekar aag tere gaalon ki ho gore-gore kanval main khilaa doon
ho dil kahtaa hai aaj milegaa nadiyaa se kinaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa
janam-janam tak toot sake naa kabhi saath hamaaraa
jab-jab apnaa mel huaa to dil ye hi pukaaraa

There’s quite a similar song by Rafisaab – almost the same tune, and lyrics not too different !
mere mehboob tu mujhko na banaa from “beti”
