Man dheere dheere gaaye re
Posted on: June 22, 2011
I have listened to this song a few times in the past, but I was not aware of the details of this song.
This lovely song, which is sung by Talat Mehmood and Suraiyya is from an obscure movie called “Maalik” (1958). This movie was one of those movies where Talat Mehmood had acted too. And like other movies where he acted, this movie too flopped at the box office, despite boasting of such a fine song in this movie.
This song is written by Shakeel Badayuni and its music is composed by Ghulam Mohammad.
What a wonderful song it is ! Listening to this song will make one’s day.

Song-Man dheere dheere gaaye re (Maalik) (1958) Singers-Talat Mehmood, Suraiyya, Lyrics-Shakeel Badayuni, MD-Ghulam Mohammad
Lyrics
man dheere dheere gaaye re
man dheere dheere gaaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
bin gaaye rahaa na jaaye re
bin gaaye rahaa na jaaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
ik baat zubaan par aaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
kahte huye dil sharmaaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
man dheere dheere gaaye re
ho ho ho ho
ho ho ho
palkon mein chhupaa kar gori
laayi hai milan ki dori
ab saath hai jeewan bhar kaa
lo thaam lo bainyaa mori
chhav dekh nazar lalchaaye re
chhav dekh nazar lalchaaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
man dheere dheere gaaye re
ho ho ho
ho ho ho ho ho
aashaaon ne li angdaayi
tan man mein baji shehnaayi
dil doob gayaa masti mein
ik lahar khushi ki aayi
dil haath se nikalaa jaaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
man dheere dheere gaaye re
maaloom nahin kyun
maaloom nahin kyun
man dheere dheere gaaye re

Wow! This song had not been posted yet? I love this song. I now need to check this blog for some of my other favourite Talat songs. I have a feeling there may be some more Talat gems not yet posted. 🙂

Nahm sir,
The word,indeed,is chhab-which means beauty(not face).

Atul ji,
This is really a very rare and a dazzling find. The video of this song has been uploaded by a very kind soul just about 10 day ago, and is available at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7au5k5xeCE
I request that this link be added into the main article.
These two singing stars came together on screen only on two occasions. Once in 1954, in the film ‘Waaris’, and then in 1958 in this film. In ‘Waaris’, they have together performed on screen the iconic “Raahi Matwaale. . . “. In that film, there are two more of their duets listed.
This duet is the only one they sang and performed together in the film ‘Maalik’. That makes this song assume significant historical importance.
