Ye pyaar ki raaten ye aaj ki baaten
Posted on: June 16, 2011
“Baghdad” (1952) is a B grade Hindi movie starring Bhagwan, Begam Para, Bharti Devi, Hari Shivdasani, Anwar Hussain etc. Like most B grade movies, this movie too has entered the hall of obscurity.
What about its music ? As per Atul’s rule of movie music, every B grade movie must have A grade music. And the music of this movie is no exception.
Here is a wondeful gem from “Baghdad” (1952) that I had never heard before. This song is sung by three singers, viz Geeta Dutt, Talat Mehmood and G M Durrani. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan is the lyricist. Music is composed by Bulo C Rani.
Indeed it is one of those invaluable musical gems that I keep finding on a regular basis.

Lyrics
ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
dildaar yaad rekhna
hamse kiye hain kyaa kyaa
iqraar yaad rekhna
haan ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
teri nazar ne haay kyaa kyaa kise ishaare
ho ho ho
chaand sitaare hans ke pukaare
ham tumhaare
ham tumhaare
dil mein hamaare rehna
sarkaar yaad rekhna
haan ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
khaamosh kyun ho aakhir
kyaa marzi hai tumhaari
ho ho ho
kyaa tumse saaf keh doon
kyaa sochta hoon yaari
do aankhen ye tumhaari
do aankhen ye hamaari
jab mil gayin to hongi
kul chaar yaad rekhna
haan ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
dildaar yaad rekhna
hamse kiye hain kyaa kyaa
iqraar yaad rekhna
haan ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
dil nahin bas mein haay
bole aayi jawaani
ho ho ho
dil ke badle aaj hamen kyaa doge nishaani apni saani
ham dete hain dil tumko
sarkaar yaad rekhna
haan ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
dil leti ho to le lo
warna jawaab de do
ho ho ho
ghaate ki naukri hai
mera hisaab de do
de do
de do
maaroongi warna dil pe
talwaar yaad rekhna
ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
dildaar yaad rekhna
hamse kiye hain kyaa kyaa
ikraar yaad rekhna
haan ye pyaar ki raaten
ye aaj ki baaten
