Jab raat hai aisi matwaali to subah ka aalam kyaa hogaa

Posted on: November 11, 2009


I have posted several songs from “Mughal e Azam” (1960) and many more need to be posted. Just about every song of this movie was a classic that is a feast for the ears and eyes even to this date.

Here is another song from this movie. The song is “jab raat hai aisi matwaali”. The setting and the picturisation is lavish. Prince Salim (Dilip Kumar) is shown in thecompany of Anarkali (Madhubala) and female singers are seen singing and dancing this song. I find the lyrics of this song incredibly romantic , and Shakeel Badayuni was at his creative best while penning this song. What imagination he conjured.His lyrics flow like the poetic equivalent of champagne.

Naushad, like Shakeel Badayuni, was at his creative best in this movie too.

Lata sings this song.The song is picturised on Nigar Sultana. I thank Raja for providing me this information.


Song-Jab raat hai aisi matwaali (Mughal e Azam) (1960) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Shakeel Badayuni, MD-Naushad

Lyrics

aaa aaa aaa

ye dil ki lagi kam kyaa hogi
ye ishq bhala kam kya hoga
Jab raat hai aisi matwaali
Jab raat hai aisi matwaali
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hoga
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hoga

aaa aaa aaa
naghmon se barasti hai masti
chhalke hain khushi ke paimaane
chhalke hain khushi ke paimaane
aaj aisi bahaaren aayin hain
kal din me banenge afsaane
kal din me banenge afsaane
ab isse jyaada aur haseen
ye pyaar ka mausam kyaa hoga
ab isse jyaada aur haseen
ye pyaar ka mausam kyaa hoga
Jab raat hai aisi matwaali
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hoga
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hoga

aaa aaa
ye aaj ka rang
aur ye mehfil
dil bhi hai yahaan
dildaar bhi hai
dil bhi hai yahaan
dildaar bhi hai
aankhon me qayaamat ke jalwe
seene me tadapta pyaar bhi hai
seene me tadapta pyaar bhi hai
is rang me koi jee le agar
marne ka usse gham kyaa hoga
is rang me koi jee le agar
marne ka usse gham kyaa hoga
jab raat hai aisi matwaali
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hoga
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hoga

aaa aaa
haalat hai ajab deewaano ki
ab khair nahin parwaano ki
ab khair nahin parwaano ki
anjaame muhabbat kyaa kahiye
lay badhne lagi armaano ki
lay badhne lagi armaano ki
aise me jo paayal toot gayi
phir ai mere hamdam kya hoga
aise me jo paayal toot gayi
phir ai mere hamdam kya hoga
jab raat hai aisi matwaali
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hogaa
phir subah ka aalam kyaa hogaa

aaa aaa

What a fantastic song this is. And the chemistry between Dilip and Madhubala in this song is amazing.

Btw, the picturisation is on Nigar Sultana. Quite well-known in her time.
And this song is sung by Lata only, not Lata and Shamshad.
The Lata-Shamshad combo in this movie is that another absolutely fantastic song (aren’t they all in this movie ?) – teri mehfil mein kismat aazmaakar hum bhi dekhenge.

A small correction.
In the song it is “Haalat hai ajab deewanon ki”,
Please correct it, you’ve used “Daulat hai ajab deewanon ki”, it does not fit contextually.
Nice site. Great effort.
Chao.
