Kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa
Posted on: September 3, 2010
Reading the song “kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa” may not ring a bell if one has not heard this song before. But once the song begins, one wonders how a song like this has managed to remain so well hidden from public ears.
I listened to this song for the first time just yesterday. Lata has sung this song nicely and the music of Shankar Jaikishan is wonderful. Shailendra is the lyricist. One may take the lyrics for granted now but it is clear that writing this song required lots of creativity on the part of the lyricist.
The song is picturised on Nalini Jaiwant. “Shikast” (1953) is the name of the movie.

Lyrics
kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa
bairi tu bides na jaa
ghananan megh-malhaar sunaa
rimjhim ras barsaa jaa
kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa
bairi tu bides na jaa
ghananan megh-malhaar sunaa
rimjhim ras barsaa jaa
sanan-sanan haay pawan jhakoraa bujhti aag jalaaye
sanan-sanan haay pawan jhakoraa bujhti aag jalaaye
man ki baat nayan mein aaye mujhse kahi na jaaye
man ki baat nayan mein aaye mujhse kahi na jaaye
kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa
bairi tu bides na jaa
ghananan megh-malhaar sunaa
rimjhim ras barsaa jaa
maathe kaa sindoor rulaawe lat naagin ban jaaye
maathe kaa sindoor rulaawe lat naagin ban jaaye
laakh rachaaun un bin kajraa ansuan se dhul jaaye
laakh rachaaun un bin kajraa ansuan se dhul jaaye
kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa
bairi tu bides na jaa
ghananan megh-malhaar sunaa
rimjhim ras barsaa jaa
chauraste pe jaise musaafir path poochhe ghabraaye
chauraste pe jaise musaafir path poochhe ghabraaye
kaun des kis or jaaun main man meraa samajh na paaye
kaun des kis or jaaun main man meraa samajh na paaye
kaare badraa tu na jaa na jaa
bairi tu bides na jaa
ghananan megh-malhaar sunaa
rimjhim ras barsaa jaa
