Ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
Posted on: April 4, 2010
One interesting genre of Bollywood songs is the one kind where the leading man/ leading lady reach the villain’s hideout and keep him amused by singing and dancing. The villains must be severely entertainment starved, seeing how eager they are in watching the song and dance performance. and this allows the colleagues of the dancing persons to enter the den unnoticed. 😉
Here is one such song from “Chor Baazaar” (1954). Here, Sandhya (I hope I have identified her correctly) has the job of distracting the rolypoly villain by her singing and dancing. And that allows her accomplice (a impoverished looking Shammi Kapoor, in his pre yahoo ! days) to sneak in unnoticed.
The song is sung by Shamshad Begam. Shakeel Badayuni is the lyricist and Sardar Malik is the music director.

Lyrics
ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ho ho ho ho ho
umeedon ke din hain
umangon ki raaten
umeedon ke din hain
umangon ki raaten
koi hamse karle mubhabbat ki baaten
jise khelna ho adaaon se khele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ho ho ho ho ho
zaraa meri duniya mein
chupke se aanaa
zaraa meri duniya mein
chupke se aanaa
kahin dil ki dhadkan na sunle zamaana
zamaae mein hote hain laakhon jhamele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele
ye duniya ke mele magar ham akele
tamanna hai koi hamen saath lele
lele lele ho lele lele

Watched the whole song waiting for Shammi. Though there is not much of him, the song itself is quite a pretty song and quite catchy. I love Shamshad Begum’s voice – it has a lot of life in it.
