O bal khaati sharmaati aajaa

Posted on: February 6, 2011


I have discussed as many as four songs from “Usne Kahaa Thha” (1960) but I was not aware of this song from the movie.

This is a less known song from this movie. It is sung by Rafi and Lata alongwith chorus. Only the audio of this song is available, so one has to guess about how and on whom this song is picturised. My guess is that this song is picturised as a dance song with many male and female dancers including Sunil Dutt and Nanda.

Shailendra is the lyricist. Music is composed by Salil Chaudhary.

Lyrics

O
bal khaati sharmaati aajaa
lehron si lahraati aajaa
o
kudi o kudi
o
bal khaati sharmaati aajaa
aaja aaja aaja
dupatta dhaani odh ke
gali ke har mod pe
hanse wo mukh mod mod ke
dupatta dhaani odh ke
gali ke har mod pe
hanse wo mukh mod mod ke
nigaahon mein kataar hai
ke jeenaa dushwaar hai
wo dil ko rakh de marod ke
nigaahon mein kataar hai
ke jeenaa dushwaar hai
wo dil ko rakh de marod ke

wo mast nazar albela
iss bheed mein ek akela
wo mast nazar albela
iss bheed mein ek akela
mere kaanon mein aake keh gayaa
ye hai milan ki bela
mere kaanon mein aake keh gayaa
ye hai milan ki bela
main kehta jaaoon pyaar hai
tu hai to ye bahaar hai
chali na jaanaa dil tod ke

ik roz nazar takraayi
mukh pher ke main sharmaayi
ik roz nazar takraayi
mukh pher ke main sharmaayi
phir Ram hi jaane kyaa huaa
raat ko neend na aayi
phir Ram hi jaane kyaa huaa
raat ko neend na aayi
dil tera taabedaar hai
jo ispe bhi inkaar hai
main chal doonga shahar chhod de
dil tera taabedaar hai
jo ispe bhi inkaar hai
main chal doonga shahar chhod de
o
bal khaati sharmaati aajaa
lehron si lehraati aajaa
o
kudi o kudi
o chhakke
o
bal khaati sharmaati aajaa
aaja aaja aaja
dupatta dhaani odh ke
gali ke har mod pe
hanse wo mukh mod mod ke
nigaahon mein kataar hai
ke jeenaa dushwaar hai
wo dil ko rakh de marod ke

Saregama mentions the female singer as Sabita Banerjee and not Lata Mangeshkar. Arun Ji could confirm this for us.

Atul, here is the video of this song.
And indeed it could be Sabita Banerjee and not Lata. Maybe you could get this confirmed?

Sabita Bannerji had sung the song “Jaane waale sipaahi se poochho” from this movie. This song is sung by Lata.
