ummeed unse kyaa thhi
Posted on: December 20, 2010
“Basant” (1942) is a very important movie in the annals of Hindi movies. In this movie Ulhas and Mumtaz Shanti play stage performers. Naturally this movie has several songs picturised on them. Later on, their daughter (baby Mumtaz, who was none other than Madhubala) also starts performing on stage.
I have in fact already discussed the song picturised on baby Madhubala which is Mere chhote man mein chhoti si duniyaa re (Basant) . I have already discussed two other stage performance songs from this movie.
Here is another song from this movie. Here Mumtaz Shanti performs alone. This song is sung by Parul Ghosh. Lyrics are written by P L Santoshi. Music is composed by Pannalal Ghosh, who was the husband of Parul Ghosh and who later made his mark as a legendary flute exponent. It is widely believed that the actual music director of this movie was Anil Biswas, but for some reason, he cdecided to give the credit of music direction to Pannalal Ghosh, who was hi brother in law. Yes, Parul Ghosh was Anil Biswas’ sister.
She has sung this song superbly. The lyrics by P L Santoshi are wonderful. And despite this song being so old, the audio quality is surprisingly good.
Here is this wonderful song from “Basant” (1942).

Lyrics
ummeed unse kyaa thi
aur kar wo kyaa rahe hain
ummeed unse kyaa thi
aur kar wo kyaa rahe hain
khud hi banaa rahe the
khud hi mitaa rahe hain
khud hi banaa rahe the
khud hi mitaa rahe hain
ummeed unse kyaa thi
aaye the ishq ban ke
aaye the ishq ban ke
ab ashk ban chale wo
khud hi hansaa rahe the
khud hi rulaa rahe hain
khud hi hansaa rahe the
khud hi rulaa rahe hain
ummeed unse kyaa thi
ye bekasi kaa aalam
ye bebasi ki duniyaa
dil jal rahaa hai phir bhi
dil jal rahaa hai phir bhi
ham muskuraa rahe hain
dil jal rahaa hai phir bhi
ham muskuraa rahe hain
ummeed unse kyaa thi
kiski sadaa ye aayi
kisne mujhe pukaaraa
koi mujhe bataa de
koi mujhe bataa de
kyaa
kyaa wo bulaa rahe hain
koi mujhe bataa de
kyaa wo bulaa rahe hain
koi mujhe bataa de
kyaa wo bulaa rahe hain
