Haay boot polish haay haay re boot polish
Posted on: November 17, 2010
Though most Hindi movie songs draw their inspirations from indigenous sources (classical music, folk music etc) there are songs that are inspired from western music. In late 1950s, rock and roll music had caught up in Hindi movies in a big way and there were quite a few such songs in Hindi movies those days. Music directors like C Ramchandra and Vinod, to mention a few, were composing quite a few rock and roll kind of songs those days.
Here is one such song from “O Tera Kyaa Kehna” (1959). Rafi and Manna Dey are the singers of this song. Shore Niyazi (what a nom de plume ! ) is the lyricist. Kalyanji is the music director.
PS-I just noticed that this is the 900th song of Rafi in this blog.

Lyrics
kyaa hamne sochaa thhaa kya ho gaya

haay boot polish
haay haay re boot polish
arre karlo boot polish
ek aanaa boot polish
zamaana ham ko bhi jaane
zara to pehchaane
ham hain dilwaale
aji ham hain matwaale
parampam pampam pam
parampam pampam pam
parampam pampam pam
parampam pampam pam
nange hain bhookhe hain kangaal hain
kahne ko dharti ke ye laal hain
nange hain bhookhe hain kangaal hain
kahne ko dharti ke ye laal hain
sadkon pe phirte hain behaal hain
daale huye phanda
o o
haay boot polish
haay haay re boot polish
arre karlo boot polish
ek aanaa boot polish
zamaana ham ko bhi jaane
zara to pehchaane
ham hain dilwaale
aji ham hain matwaale
parampam pampam pam
parampam pampam pam
parampam pampam pam
parampam pampam pam
jeewan hai chhota sa lambe kadam
manzil bhi ham aur musaafir bhi ham
jeewan hai chhota sa lambe kadam
manzil bhi ham aur musaafir bhi ham
peete hain aansoo aur khaate hain gham
rehte hain yoon zindaa
o o
haay boot polish
haay haay re boot polish
arre karlo boot polish
ek aanaa boot polish
zamaana ham ko bhi jaane
zara to pehchaane
ham hain dilwaale
aji ham hain matwaale
