Kankariya maar ke jagaaya
Posted on: February 4, 2009
In Bollywood movies, we have party songs and we have folk dance songs and we have tapori songs.
This is a song which could well be called a three in one song, it is a tapori folk dance song sung in a party.
Mala Sinha who plays a rustic lady is taken to a party by Manoj Kumar where she is asked to dance. And she comes up with this number.
It is a racy number, one that is bound to cheer up the bystanders. The bystanders watch in silence as is the custom in a Bollywood party song, but they thankfully burst into an applause after the song is over.
I have made an observation in the past that Mumtaz tended to dress in the colour of Holland ( viz orange colour). Here Mala Sinha is seen dressed in purple throughout the song and in fact through much of the movie. Who knows, purple could well be the national colour of some country. That country may well decide to adopt this song as their national dance, considering hor cheerful this song and dance performance is.
Song-Kankariya maar ke jagaaya (Himalaya ki god mein ) (1965) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi, MD- Kalyanji Anandji
Kankariya maar ke jagaaya
kal too mere sapne me aaya
baalma tu bada wo hai
zaalma tu bada wo hai
ho Kankariya maar ke jagaaya
kal too mere sapne me aaya
baalma tu bada wo hai
zaalma tu bada wo hai
soyi thi mai kahin khoi thi mai
neend tooti meri to bada roi thi mai
ho soi thi mai kahin khoi thi mai
neend tooti meri to bada roi thi mai
mere rone pe
mere rone pe tu muskuraaya
baalma tu bada wo hai
zaalima tu bada wo hai
ho Kankariya maar ke jagaaya
kal too mere sapne me aaya
baalma tu bada wo hai
zaalma tu bada wo hai
ho poocha agar
tu kaahe aaya idhar
bolaa anjaan raahi bhool gaya dagar
ho poocha agar
tu kaahe aaya idhar
bolaa anjaan raahi bhool gaya dagar
khoob toone
khoob toone bahaana banaaya
baalma tu bada wo hai
zaalima tu bada wo hai
ho Kankariya maar ke jagaaya
kal too mere sapne me aaya
baalma tu bada wo hai
zaalma tu bada wo hai
