Jaagiye Gopal laal
Posted on: January 31, 2011
Here is another rare gem that I discovered hours ago. This song is from “Jawaahar” (1960). Like the song, I had never heard of this movie before.
Only the audio of this song is available so I have no idea how and on whom this song was picturised. The movie had Balraj Sahni and Mala Sinha in lead roles. This song appears to be a mother-child song going by the lyrics. The song is sung by Lata and I guess that this song is picturised on Mala Sinha. Prem Dhawan is the lyricist. Music is composed by Salil Chaudhary.
The son as well as the movie may be obscure, but the song has the ability to touch the heart strings of the listeners. It is very much a forgotten gem that deserves to be better known among music lovers.
Song-Jaagiye Gopal laal (Jawaahar) (1960) Singer-Lata, Lyrics-Prem Dhawan, MD-Salil Chaudhary
Lyrics
jaagiye Gopaal laal
bansi ban bole
jaagiye Gopaal laal
bansi ban bole
nanhe-nanhe palken kholo
choomoon nain pyaare
nanhe-nanhe palken kholo
choomoon nain pyaare
tohe jagaaye jhoome gaaye
tohe jagaaye jhoome gaaye
panchhi pankh kholen
jaagiye Gopaal laal
bansi ban bole
tu hi meraa chaand
tu hi ankhiyon kaa taaraa
ho tu hanse to bhool jaaun
jeewan kaa dukh saaraa
tu hi meraa chaand
tu hi ankhiyon kaa taaraa
ho tu hanse to bhool jaaun
jeewan kaa dukh saaraa
Gangaa jal se tohe nahlaaun
Gangaa jal se tohe nahlaaun
bholi bhaali ankhiyon mein kajraa lagaaun
ho waari jaaun
tu hi meri aashaa
tu hi meraa sahaaraa
ho tu roye to laage mohe jeewan andhiyaaraa
tu hi meraa chaand
tu hi ankhiyon kaa taaraa
ho tu hanse to bhool jaaun
jeewan kaa dukh saaraa
haule haule pag pag chal mere munne
haule haule pag pag chal mere munne
tere sang chali jal thal mere munne
ho waari jaaun
tu hi meri aashaa
tu hi meraa sahaaraa
ho tu roye to laage mohe jeewan andhiyaaraa
tu hi meraa chaand
tu hi ankhiyon kaa taaraa
ho tu hanse to bhool jaaun
jeewan kaa dukh saaraa
