Morey sainyya jee ne bheji chunri
Posted on: September 19, 2011
“Pehle Aap” (1944) was one of those early movies which decided the course of action that future Hindi movie music was to take. This movie, like other movies where Naushad was the music director, had its music based on folk music, and that enabled public to readily connect and identify with this music.
Here is a song from “Pehle Aap” (1944) that showcases the use of folk music at its best. The use of dholak is so quintessentially eastern UP folk music, and interestingly enough, the lyrics may be applicable more to Punjab than eastern UP. But the combination of the lyrics and music is wonderful.
The song is sung with gusto by Zohrabai Ambalewaali and chorus. Towards the end, there is one male voice too, which is unidentified. I have a feeling that I may have hard this voice before , but I am uanable to put a finger to it as of now. I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify this unidentified voice.
Here is this fantastic song, which is written by D N Madhok, and its lilting music is composed by Naushad.
Song-More sainyya jee ne bheji chunri (Pehle Aap) (1944) Singer-Zohrabai Ambalewaali, Male voice, Lyrics-D N Madhok, MD-Naushad

Lyrics
more saiyaan jee ne bheji chunri
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
saiyaan jee ne bheji chunri
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
sun-sun ree chunariyaa malmal ki
sun-sun ree chunariyaa malmal ki
tose kahoon main balam jee ki baat kal ki
tose kahoon main balam jee ki baat kal ki
chori-chori chhed gaye man ke wo taar
chori-chori chhed gaye man ke wo taar
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
sainyyaan jee ne
more sainyyaan jee ne bheji chunri
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
ab aayi ab aayi basant ritu aayi
yaad aaye yaad aaye haay wo harjaayi
ab aayi ab aayi basant ritu aayi
yaad aaye yaad aaye haay wo harjaayi
koyal bole koo-koo mein more jiyaa ki pukaar
koyal bole koo-koo mein more jiyaa ki pukaar
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
sainyyaan jee ne
more sainyyaan jee ne bheji chunri
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
dagaa de ke chale na jaanaa auron ke sang
dagaa de ke chale na jaanaa auron ke sang
teraa oonchaa ude re more sainyaa patang
teraa oonchaa ude re more sainyaa patang
mar jaaungi denaa naa mohe birhaa ki maar
mar jaaungi denaa naa mohe birhaa ki maar
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
sainyyaan jee ne
more sainyyaan jee ne bheji chunri
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
jiyaa bole jiyaa bole sajan ghar jaanaa
more nainaa more nainaa kahe sajan aa naa
jiyaa bole jiyaa bole sajan ghar jaanaa
more nainaa more nainaa kahe sajan aa naa
jiyaa laage kahin naa ab do din hamaar
jiyaa lage kahin naa ab do din hamaar
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar
sainyyaan jee ne
more sainyyaan jee ne bheji chunri
rangoon main ise pyaar ke rang daar

‘rangun main tumse’ should be replaced by ‘rangun main ise’ in the whole lyric.
