Hiya jarat rahat din rain
Posted on: April 18, 2009
In most Bollywood movies, characters speak and sing in mainstream Hindi/ Urdu, but there are movies where they speak a bit differently. For instance, all villagers in Bollywood movies speak in a dialect that is supposedly Bhojpuri even if those villagers live in Sikkim !
Then there are more “authentic” movies that are actually supposed to be made in Bhojpuri. I am not sure whether “Godaan” (1963) was a Hindi movie or a Bhojpuri one. In any case, the singers, actors etc in this movie were those who are well known names in Bollywood.
This song from “Godaan” (1963) was sung by Mukesh and picturised on Raj Kumar. Anjaan was the lyricist and music direction was by Pt Ravishankar, the same person who is now known as a sitarist par excellence.
This song, incidentaaly, is based on Raag Tilak Kamod.

Lyrics
hiyaa jarat rahat din rain ho raamaa
jarat rahat din rain
hiyaa jarat rahat din rain ho raamaa
jarat rahat din rain
ambvaa ki daali pe koyal bole
ambvaa ki daali pe koyal bole
tanik na aavat chain O raamaa
jarat rahat din rain
baswaari mein madhur sur baaje
baswaari mein madhur sur baaje
birhi papiharaa bolan laage
madhure madhur madhu bain O raamaa
jarat rahat din rain
aas adhoori pyaasi umariyaa
aas adhoori pyaasi umariyaa
chaaye andheraa sooni dagariyaa
darat jiyaa bechain
darat jiyaa bechain O raamaa
jarat rahat din rain
hiya jarat rahat din rain O raamma
jarat rahat din rain

Mukesh has sung this song with his heart in it. Such types of songs have almost become a history. Music composition is quite different than the usual rut music of that time.
Godaan is a Hindi film based on Munshi Premchand’s novel by the same name. Premchand’s short stories and novels are mostly based on the village life that too in Poorvanchal region of UP to which he belonged.
His short stories and novels depict the traditions and culture of village life. Alas! such types of movies are now rarely produced in Hindi film industry.
Video link of the sing is now available : http://youtu.be/vE6-PqX6jhA
