Aaj kehti hai kisi ki zindagi rote huye…apna ghar aur apni kahani
Posted on: May 31, 2010
Few people, including me have heard of this movie called “Apna Ghar Apni Kahani” (1968). This movie had come in an era when we had a glut of classy songs, and I do not recall ever listening to songs of this movie. Not that I could have been able to identify the songs as belonging to this movie, had I heard the songs then.
I stumbled upon this song yesterday while looking for another, even more scarce song from the same movie.
This movie was a C grade movie and it had Sudhir (the small time villain of those days) playing hero opposite Mumtaz !
Here is the title song of this movie, sung with feeling by Rafi. Qamar Jalalabadi is the lyricist and N Datta is the music director. This song is a rare gem that has been forgotten with time, mainly because the movie itself has been forgotten. But this song deserves to be much better known, and I am sure that the listeners listening to this song with agree with my view.

Song-aaj kahti hai kisi ki zindagi rote huye ..Apna Ghar aur apni kahaani (Apna Ghar Apni Kahani) (1968) Singer-Rafi, Lyrics- Qamar Jalalabadi, MD-N Datta
Lyrics
aaj kahti hai kisi ki zindagi rote huye
maang sooni ho gayi
sindoor ke hote huye
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
manzil ko paakar laut aaye
raahi ki hai itni kahaani
manzil ko paakar laut aaye
raahi ki hai itni kahaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
jiske liye jeena seekha thaa
us bairi ne kadr na jaani
jiske liye jeena seekha thaa
us bairi ne kadr na jaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
unki nishaani goad lekar
keh na sakoon isse unki nishaani
unki nishaani goad lekar
keh na sakoon isse unki nishaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
kyaa samjhe duniya deewaani
apna ghar aur apni kahaani
