Raat aur din diyaa jale

Posted on: July 24, 2010


Here is a very well known title song from a reasonably well known movie. The movie is “Raat Aur Din” (1967) and the song is “Raat aur din diyaa jale”.

This movie had Nargis and Pradeep Kumar in lead roles. Nargis in fact had already quit movies and this movie was one of the few sporadic appearances that she was making in movies of 1960s. Pradeep Kumar, a leading hero in 1950s too was on the verge of losing his herogiri status.

This title song has female version (sung by Lata and picturised on Nargis) and a male version (sung by Mukesh and picturised on Pradeep Kumar). The lyrics of both the versions are identical.

Shailendra is tjhe lyricist and Shankar Jaikishan composed the music.

Here is this iconic song from “Raat Aur Din” (1967).

The farmaish for this song was given by Lalitha. And like always, she chose a wonderful song for her farmaish.

Audio – Female version

Video – Female version

Audio – Male version

Song-Raat aur din diyaa jale mere man mein phir bhi andhiyaara hai (Raat Aur Din) (1967) Singer-Lata/Mukesh, Lyrics-Shailendra, MD-Shankar Jaikishan

Lyrics

Raat aur din diyaa jale
mere man mein phir bhi andhiyaaraa hai
raat aur din diyaa jale
mere man mein phir bhi andhiyaaraa hai
jaane kahaan hai wo saathi
tu jo mile jeewan ujiyaaraa hai
raat aur din

pag pag man meraa thokar khaaye
chaand sooraj bhi raah na dikhaaye
pag pag man meraa thokar khaaye
chaand sooraj bhi raah na dikhaaye
aisaa ujaalaa koyi man mein samaaye
jisse piyaa kaa darshan mil jaaye
raat aur din diyaa jale
mere man mein phir bhi andhiyaaraa hai
jaane kahaan hai wo saathi
tu jo mile jeewan ujiyaaraa hai
raat aur din

gahraa ye bhed koyi mujhko bataaye
kisne kiyaa hai mujhpar anyaay
gahraa ye bhed koyi mujhko bataaye
kisne kiyaa hai mujhpar anyaay
jiskaa ho deep wo sukh nahin paaye
jyoti diye ki dooje ghar ko sajaaye
raat aur din diyaa jale
mere man mein phir bhi andhiyaaraa hai
jaane kahaan hai wo saathi
tu jo mile jeewan ujiyaaraa hai
raat aur din

khud nahin jaanoon dhoondhe kisko nazar
kaun dishaa hai mere man ki dagar
khud nahin jaanoon dhoondhe kisko nazar
kaun dishaa hai mere man ki dagar
kitnaa ajab hai ye dil kaa safar
nadiya mein aaye jaaye jaise lahar
raat aur din diyaa jale
mere man mein phir bhi andhiyaaraa hai
jaane kahaan hai wo saathi
tu jo mile jeewan ujiyaaraa hai
raat aur din

I see conflicting references for the lyricist on this song… Here Shailendra Ji is listed but Hasrat Jaipuri is also listed in some other places… so, I am wondering who really wrote this beautiful poetry?

The lyricist for this is Hasrat Jaipuri and not Shailendra…please correct
