O door ke musaafir hamko bhi saath le le
Posted on: February 9, 2009
“Udan Khatola” had some fantastic songs composed by Naushad which are popular even today.
I have already posted a Lata classic from this movie. Here is a Rafi classic this time. This song was written by Shakeel Badayuni and the song was picturised on Dilip Kumar.
When I realise that this song is over 57 years old, I wonder how such a gem of the song was recorded almost flawlessly despite the recording technology those days being far too primitive.
And kudos to technology that these gems are still available for the listening (and viewing ) pleasure of the future generations.

song- o door ke musaafir (Udan Khatola) (1955) Singer-Rafi, Lyrics-Shakeel Badayuni, MD-Naushad
Lyrics
chale aj tum jahaan se
huyi zindagi paraayi
tumhe mil gaya thikaana
hamen maut bhi naa aayi
O door ke musaafir
hamko bhi saath lele re
hamko bhi sath le le
ham rah gaye akele
O door ke musaafir
hamko bhi saath lele re
hamko bhi sath le le
toone wo de diya gham
be maut mar gaye ham
dil uth gaya jahaan se
le chal hamen yahaan se
le chal hamen yahaan se
kis kaam ki ye duniya
jo zindagi se khele re
hamko bhi saath lele
ham rah gaye akele
o door ke musafir
hamko bhi saath lele re
ham ko bhi saath lele
ham rah gaye akele
sooni hai dil ki raahen
khaamosh hain nigaahein
naakaam hasraton ka uthne ko hai janaaza
uthne ko hai janaaza
chaaron taraf lage hain
barbaadiyon ke mele re
hamko bhi saath lele
ham rah gaye akele
o door ke musafir
hamko bhi saath lele re
ham ko bhi saath lele
ham rah gaye akele
o door ke musafir
ham ko bhi saath lele
ham rah gaye akele

What a fantastic song by Rafi saab !
I think Naushad made the best use of Rafi saab’s voice in the 1950s, especially with the ever-reliable Shakeel Badayuni for lyrics. Awesome combination this was.

Love this song. No words to praise the trio of Rafi, Naushad and Shakeel for giving us such gems.

I love this song: only Rafi could have done justice to it, but I don’t like to watch it because I thought that the scene it showed (the last one) was totally OTT.
This is one film I would go and definitely change the ending.
