Atul ji,
Brief note about the lyrics.
The unknown male voice is of the actor SN Bannerjee himself. In the film, SN Bannerjee plays the role of Daroga Khan Saheb, father of Shaiza (role played by Johnny Walker). In this song, Shaiza is masqerading as a fakir, with a hidden camera. He is trying to get a photo of Jameela (role played by Waheeda Rehman), for his friend Nawab Sahib (role played by Rehman). The setting is a local mela (fair), and it is expected that Jameela may visit with her friends.
There are two lines near the end of the song which are missing in the video clip, most likely a bad patch in the film reel from which this clip is digitized. The audio clip has the complete song. It is available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QysGSaZ2aI.
Lyrics corrections.
The line – “itne hain duniya waale”
should be – “jitne hain duniya waale”
The line – “ek photo ka sawaal hai baba, ?? kidhar hai”
should be – “ek photo ka sawaal hai baba, bey. . . kidhar hai”
The word ‘bey’ is simply an expression, to address some one, (like ‘abey’).
The line – “leke maut ke aane paseene mujhe”
should be ; “lagey maut ke aane paseene mujhe”.
The missing lines are between
“lambi umar ho
oopar se khol hai”.
The completed lyrics in this part are
“lambi umar ho
jaldi se lambey ho jaao
ye buddhaa gol hai
oopar se khol hai”.
First two lines above are by Johnny Walker, the remaining two are Rafi.
