Dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
Posted by: Atul on: September 15, 2011
I have been discussing the missing songs of Sajjad Hussain from “Rukhsaanaa” (1955)that I have been able to locate. “Rukhsaana” (1955) is a movie about which little information is available.
Our resident expert Mr Arunkumar Deshmukh has kindly furnished all the information about this movie that one may need. Here is what he says-
RUKHSANA(1955),a Talwar films production was a Historical costume drama,produced and directed by R.C.Talwar.Music by Sajjad Hussain,the lyrics were of Khumar Barabankvi,Shakeel Badayuni and Tanvir Naqvi.
The cast included Meena Kumari, Kishore Kumar, Shammi, Sunder, Madan Puri, Randhir, Kumkum, Amar etc.
Revolt,if successful,changes history,if failure,is called a Mutiny. It is a story of Princess Rukhsana,who helps the rebel leader Badal(Kishore kumar),who is leading the revolt against the oppressive Prime Minister Khalid(Madan Puri).
Rukhsana is caught red handed,tried and sentenced Death by hanging.
The story details how rhe rebels rescue Rukhsana,kill the Prime Minister and establish a happy kingdom.
Rukhsana was the first and the last film where Kishore kumar sang under the baton of Sajjad Hussain.As such Sajjad never considered Kishore as a good singer.He used to call Kishore Kumar ” SHOR KUMAR “(and Talat Mehmood as ” GALAT MEHMOOD “).
Here is a song from “Rukhsaanaa” (1955) which is sung by Asha Bhonsle and Mubarak Begam. Khumar Barabankwi is the lyricist.
Only the audio of this song is available so I am unable to tell for sure how this song is picturised. My guess is that Asha Bhonsle has sung for Meena Kumari in this movie. I am not clear about the actress who may have lip synced in Mubarak Begam’s voice in this movie. The actress lip syncing in Mubarak Begam’s voice had a long enough role, seeing that Mubarak Begam has two songs in this movie. This actress could well be Kumkum or even perhaps Shammi. I request our knowledgeable readers to tell us more about this picturisation.
Here is this song which is the 65th Sajjad Hussain composition covered in this blog.
Song-Dil ko lagaa ke huzoor (Rukhsaanaa) (1955) Singers-Asha Bhonsle, Mubarak Begam, Lyrics-Khumar Barabankwi, MD-Sajjad Hussain
Lyrics
aaa aaa aaa
dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
huzoor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
zaalim nigaahon ne
milke dagaa dee
dil mein tumhaari ulfat basaa dee
aankhon ka sab hai qusoor
qusoor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
aaaa aaa aaa
aaa aaa
ham se waade karaa
aaa aaa
ham se waade karaa
ghairon se mulaaqaaten karaa
jaan ham tum pe nichhaawar karen
tum khaaq karo
ye to nahin dastoor
dastoor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
aaa
kaam kar haathon se dil
door se jalwaa dekhen
jaan se jaayen ham
aur aap tamaasha dekhen
ho ho ho
naa karo itna guroor
guroor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
aankhen churaao ya daaman bachaao
jitna bhi chaaho hamko rulaao
chaahenge tumko zaroor
zaroor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
ham to huye majboor
majboor haay
dil ko lagaa ke huzoor
