Nainheen ko raah dikhaa prabhu

Posted on: June 6, 2011


I have found that “Bhakt Surdas” (1942) is a treasure of great K L Saigal songs. I have already discussed a few such songs.

Here is a great K L saigal song from this movie. This song is a bhajan which is sung by K L Saigal in his characteristic low pitch.

D N Madhok is the lyricist. Gyan Dutt is the music director.


Song-Nainheen ko raah dikha prabhu (Bhakt Surdas) (1942) Singer-K L Saigal, Lyrics-D N Madhok, MD-Gyan Dutt

Lyrics

nainheen ko raah dikhaa prabhu
nainheen ko raah dikhaa prabhu
pag-pag thokar khaaun main
nainheen ko raah dikhaa prabhu
pag-pag thokar khaaun main
nainheen ko

tumhri nagariyaa ki kathin dagariyaa
tumhri nagariyaa ki kathin dagariyaa
chalat chalat gir jaaun main prabhuu
nainheen ko raah dikhaa prabhu
pag-pag thokar khaaun main
nainheen ko raah dikha prabhu

chahoon or mere ghor andheraa bhool naa jaaun dwaar teraa
chahoon or mere ghor andheraa bhool naa jaaun dwaar teraa
ek baar prabhu haath pakad lo
ek baar prabhu haath pakad lo
ek baar prabhu haath pakad lo
man kaa deep jalaaun main
prabhu
nainheen ko raah dikhaa prabhu
pag-pag thokar khaaun main
nainheen ko

Atul ji,
Harmandir Singh says in his Listeners’ Bulletin:
” Nain heen ko raah dikha song was recorded 14 times,but not satisfied with his own performance Saigal wept openly and bitterly.After gaining composure,he recorded a Masterpiece.
Sangeet sadhana ke aise Tapaswi kahan milenge ? ”

chahoon or mere ghor andheraa is wrong phrase. It should be “Chahun Or” meaning four directions.
