Raina beeti jaaye Shyaam na aaye
Posted on: April 17, 2009
“Amar Prem” was full of memorable songs that are remembered to this date.
Here is a song from the movie that was sung by Lata and picturised on Sharmila Tagore and Rajesh Khanna. Anand Bakshi was the lyricist and R D Burman composed the music.
All these days I thought this song must have been written by Gulzar, consideing that he has written some nice songs with the word “raina” (night) in them. But here it is Anand Bakshi who has written this song and he has in fact wrote a very fine song playing with the words “Shaam” (evening) and “Shyaam”(Lord Krishna). Lata has sung this song beautifully.
Song-Raina beeti jaaye (Amar Prem) (1971) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Anand Bakshi, MD-R D Burman
Lyrics
aaa aaa
rainaa beeti jaaye, shyaam naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye, shyaam naa aaye
nindiyaa naa aaye, nindiyaa naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye, shyaam naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye
shaam ko bhoolaa, Shyaam kaa waadaa
shaam ko bhoolaa, Shyaam kaa waadaa
sang diye ke, jaage Raadhaa
nindiyaa naa aaye, nindiyaa naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye, shyaam naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye
birhaa ki maari, prem deewaani re
birhaa ki maari, prem deewaani
tan man pyaasaa ankhiyon mein paani
nindiyaa naa aaye, nindiyaa naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye, shyaam naa aaye
rainaa beeti jaaye

Absolutely one of the best ever–composition, singing and picturization. Everybody was superb in this gem.
