Aan milo aan milo Shyaam saanware
Posted on: September 8, 2009
Now I have listened to this many a times, but I did that without paying much attention and without knowing any details about it.
This time I had the details and I listened to this song paying due attention. And what did I find ? I found that this song was amazing and mind boggling. The voice of Geeta Dutt which dominates this song, just bowls the listener over. Manna Dey acts as a competent foil. For much of the time I thought that Hemant Kumar was the male singer.
This song is picturised on Dulari. (I thank Raja for this information).
The words by Sahir Ludhianvi are simply wonderful. To imagine that a shayar who has given us some great shaayaris and qawwalis could write such a beautiful song using colloquial words is such a pleasant surprise.
And the music of S D Burman as always is perfect for the occasion.
What a gem of a song this is.
And before I forget to mention it, this wonderful song is from “Devdas” (1955).

Brindaavan ki galiyan mein tum bin jiyaraa naa laage

nis din tumhi baat nihaare vyaakul nainaa abhaage
o vyaakul naina abhaage
ab hi aisi dashaa hai man ki kyaa huyi hai phir aage re
Brij mein akeli Raadhe khoyi-khoyi phire
o Raadhe khoyi-khoyi phire
o Kaanhaa aan milo

ajhun jo na bheje Mohan taine koyi khabariyaa

ho jaihen ye Brij ki baalaa ro-ro kar baawariyaa
o

dheer bandha jaa

mukh dikhlaa jaa natnaagar saanwariyaa re
Brij mein akeli Raadhe khoyi-khoyi phire
o Raadhe khoyi-khoyi phire
o Kaanhaa aan milo aan milo Shaaym saanware
aan milo

So it is Dulari ! I was hoping that some kind hearted person would mention her name to help me out. I did not ask my readers to identify it because I did not want to sound ignorant. 🙂

It should be appreciated that Sahir Ludhianavi , muslim shaayar written this lovely Bhajan type song. Great. Dulari n Baby Naaz acted here. The man, dressed as sadhu could be Nana Palshikar.

This is a legendary song.
One of those songs which I heard in my childhood and had no clue which film it was from (or that it was even a film song).
Really lovely it is.
