Jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa

Posted on: January 12, 2010


When one watches old Bollywood movies, one notices that people went about their lives in a laid back and relaxed manner. A typical girl would go to school/ college and while at home she would learn knitting/ cooking etc from her mother. She would also learn singing/ dancing from a tutor who would come to her home to teach her these arts. The girl would display her newly acquired prowess of singing / dancing in front of guests , parents and her guru.

Here is one such song from “Aazaad” (1955). Here we find a very young Meena Kumari singing and dancing in front of a select gathering of guests. This lovely song is saung by Lata. It is written by Rajinder Krishan and music is composed by C Ramchandra.

What a lovely song , and what beautiful picturisation. Where have such songs and such picturisations gone now a days!

Lyrics

jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
mat barso ri meri nagariyaa
mat barso ri meri nagariyaa
pardes gaye hain saanvariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa

kaahe ghir ghir shor machaaye ri
kaahe ghir ghir shor machaaye ri
meraa naram karejwaa jalaaye ri
meraa naram karejwaa jalaaye ri
meraa manwaa jale, koyi bas na chale
meraa manwaa jale, koyi bas na chale
haay! tak tak ke sooni dagariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
mat baraso ri meri nagariyaa
pardes gaye hain saanvariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa

jaiyo jaiyo ri desh piyaa ke
jaiyo jaiyo ri desh piyaa ke
kahiyo dukhde tu mere jiyaa ke
kahiyo dukhde tu mere jiyaa ke
kahiyo chham chham roye, akhiyaan na soye
kahiyo chham chham roye, akhiyaan na soye
huyi yaad mein pi ki baawariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
mat baraso ri meri nagariyaa
pardes gaye hain saanvariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
jaa ri jaa ri o kaari badariyaa
