Main jaagoon saari rain sajan tum so jaao
Posted on: October 8, 2010
This song can be put into several categories. This song narrowly misses from becoming a “movie opening song”. The song begins immediately after the credits disappear from the screen. Guru Dutt and Mala Sinha are just married and it is their suhaag raat. But Guru Dutt, instead of taking interest in his newly wedded bride, complains that he cannot get sleep because of her.
And then this poignant song begins. The audiencve can sympathise with the feelings of Mala Sinha, of course. And it takes Lata’s vocals, Sahir Ludhianvi’s lyrics and C Ramchandra’s music to create a song that expresses Mala Sinha’s anguish wonderfully well. Sahir Ludhianvi, as was his wont, comes up with words that express Mala Sinha’s feeling in a way that most mortals just cannot.
Though I heard this song for the first time only just now, I am sure that this is a very well known song and it could even be a timeless classic known to most music lovers.
It is a fantastic song and this has whetted my appetite about the songs of this movie “Bahurani” (1963). So one can expect more songs from this movie in these pages in the coming days. For now, here is this superb song “main jaagoon saari rain sajan tum so jaao”.

Song-Main jaagoon saari rain (Bahu Rani) (1963) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Sahir Ludhianvi, MD-C Ramchandra
Lyrics
main jaagoon saari rain
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
geeton mein chhupaa loon bain
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
saanjh dhale se bhor bhaye tak
jaag ke jab katati hain ghadiyaan
saanjh dhale se bhor bhaye tak
jaag ke jab katati hain ghadiyaan
madhur milan ki god mein bas kar
khilti hain jab jeewan ladiyaan
aaj nahin wo rain
ho aaj nahin wo rain
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
main jaagoon saari rain
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
pheeki pad gayi chaand ki jyoti
dhundhle ho gaye deep gagan ke
pheeki pad gayi chaand ki jyoti
dhundhle ho gaye deep gagan ke
so gayin sundar sej ki kaliyaan
so gaye khilte bhaag dulhan ke
khulkar ro len nain,
ho
khulkar ro len nain,
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
main jaagoon saari rain
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
jaag ke so gayi tan ki agni
badhkar tham gayi man ki halchal
jaag ke so gayi tan ki agni
badhkar tham gayi man ki halchal
apnaa ghoonghat aap ulatkar
khol di maine paanv ki chhaagal
ab hai chain hi chain,
ho
ab hai chain hi chain,
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
main jaagoon saari rain
sajan tum so jaao,
so jaao, so jaao
so jaao
hmm hmm
