Dard ka saaz bhi hai dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
Posted on: February 18, 2012
“Milaap” (1955) was the debut movie of N Datta as a full feledged music director. This movie has by and large been forgotten by now alongwirh its music. But in the process of digging up the songs of this movie, we are coming up with one gem after another.
Four songs from this movie have been discussed so far. Here is the fifth song from this movie. This song is a mujra song, which is sung by Lata. I am not very good in identifying the actresses of 1950s, but it appears to me that this song is picturised on a very young Kumkum. I request our knowledgeable readers to help confirm/ refute my identification.
Sahir Ludhianvi is the lyricist and the lyrics have elevated this song from a run of mill mujra song to a work of fine art. This song deserves to be better known among music lovers.

Song-Dard ka saaz bhi hai dil ki aawaaz bhi hai (Milaap)(1955) Singer-Lata, Lyrics- Sahir Ludhianvi, MD-N Datta
Lyrics
aaa aaa
aaa aaa aaa
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
chhed wo raag ke jo
aag lagaa de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
chhed wo raag ke jo
aag lagaa de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
bahud sard hain
zindagi ki fizaayen
bahud sard hain
zindagi ki fizaayen
bahut tez hain
aaj zaalim hawaayen
kahin raaston ke diye bujh na jaayen
kahin raaston ke diye bujh na jaayen
ae ae
meri manzil pe zara
mujhko chala de
meri manzil pe zara
mujhko chala de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
chhed wo raag ke jo
aag lagaa de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
muhabbat ke sadmon se
do chaar ho kar
muhabbat ke sadmon se
do chaar ho kar
zamaane ki rasmon se
bezaar ho kar
tere paas aaye hain
laachaar ho kar
tere paas aaye hain
laachaar ho kar
aa aa
hamko jeene ki koi
raah dikha de
ae ae
hamko jeene ki koi
raah dikha de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
chhed wo raag ke jo
aag lagaa de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
kayi khwaab jaage
kayi so gaye hain
kayi khwaab jaage
kayi so gaye hain
na poochho ke ham
kya se kya ho gaye hain
unhen dhondhte dhoondhhte kho gaye hai
unhen dhondhte dhoondhhte kho gaye hai
ae ae
hamko unse na sahi
hamse milaa de
ae ae
hamko unse na sahi
hamse milaa de
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
dard ka saaz bhi hai
dil ki aawaaz bhi hai
chhed wo raag ki jo
aag lagaa de
dard ka saaz bhi hai

Arunji,
I saw one show in which the host said that Kumkum’s sibling also acted few small roles in hindi movies. I remember watching a song in which both the sisters had danced. Can’t remember the song. Can you help?
