In taaron ki mehfil mein tum sa koi taaraa nahin
Posted on: February 6, 2011
Here is a forgotten gem from a forgotten B grade movie called “Police Detective” (1960). This movie had Sujit Kumar and Shyama in lead roles.
This song is a duet which is sung by Mahendra Kapoor (then a new comer) and Lata. Prem Dhawan is the lyricist. Music is composed by Chitragupta.
I am not sure about the picturisation in absence of the video of this song. This song could well have been picturised on Sujit Kumar and Shyama. But then I had discussed a song from this movie in the past(Sainyya dekh dekh dekh main hoon laakhon mein ek ) which was sung by Suman Kalyanpur and Rafi and that was indeed picturised on Sujit Kumar and Shyama. Assuming that Suman Kalyanpur was used as a substite and Mahendra Kapoor as a substitute for Rafi, then my guess could well be correct about the picturisation. I request my knowledgeable readers to tell us about the picturisation of this song.
Song-In taaron ki mehfil mein (Police Detective) (1960) Singers-Mahendra Kapoor, Lata, Lyrics-Prem Dhawan, MD-Chitragupta
Lyrics
In taaron ki mehfil mein
tum sa koi taaraa nahin
in taaron ki mehfil mein
tum sa koi taaraa nahin
yoon to chaand bhi pyaara hai
hamen tumse to pyaaraa nahin
yoon to chaand bhi pyaara hai
kuchh meri tamannaa thhi
kuch teri nawaazish thhi
kuchh meri tamannaa thhi
kuch teri nawaazish thhi
kuch dil ka bahaanaa thaa
kuch nazron ki saazish thhi
haalaat hon aise to
chalta koi pyaaraa nahin
in taaron ki mehfil mein
mere pyaar ki manzil hai
teri zulfon ki chhaaon mein
mere pyaar ki manzil hai
teri zulfon ki chhaaon mein
maine saaraa jahaan paayaa
aakar teri baahon mein
ulfat ke siwaa ab to
hamen koi sahaaraa nahin
yoon to chaand bhi pyaara hai
dekhi hai jhalak teri
hanste huye taaron mein
dekhi hai jhalak teri
hanste huye taaron mein
tujh sa koi phool nahin
duniya ki bahaaron mein
jismein tera jalwa na ho
koi aisa nazaara nahin
in taaron ki mehfil mein
tum sa koi taaraa nahin
in taaron ki mehfil mein
