Jaani re hum jaani re
Posted January 22, 2013
on:“Saanwariya” (1949) was a Filmistan production movie. It was directed by N A Mansuri. The movie had Ravi Shanker, Hafiz, Jehan, Indu Paul, Shamim Akhtar, Shanti Madhok, Rehman etc in it.
Two songs from this by now forgotten movie have been discussed in the past. Here is another song from the movie. This song is a duet which is sung by Lata and Geeta Dutt as well as chorus. P L Santoshi is the lyricist. Music is composed by C Ramchandra.
Only the audio of this song is available and so it is difficult to guess ho and on whom this song is picturised. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw more light on the picturisation of this song.

Lyrics
Hum jaani re
hum jaani re
jaani re
Hum jaani re
kaahe jiyara achle machle
kaahe nain mein paani re
kaahe nain mein paani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
mem chali gayi chhod ke
sahib ke dil ko tod ke
duniya mein pachhtaaye sabhi re
preet ka naata jod ke
duniya mein pachhtaaye sabhi re
preet ka naata jod ke
baat badon ki na maani re
baat badon ki na maani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
preet sheher ki jhoothhi re
jo kare so kismat phooti re
din bhar ko hai milya julya
hardam roothha roothhi re
din bhar ko hai milya julya
hardam roothha roothhi re
is preet ko aag lagaani re
preet ko aag lagaani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
baithhe nadi kinaare ho
jaa ke saanjh sakhaare ho
din ko maare achhli macchli
giney raat ko taare ho
din ko maare achhli macchhli
giney raat ko taare ho
ro ro umar bitaani re
ro ro umar bitaani re
jaani re
hum jaani re
jaani re
hum jaani re

हम जानी रे
हम जानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
काहे जियरा अचले मचले
काहे नैन में पानी रे
काहे नैन में पानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
मेम चली गयी छोड़ के
साहिब के दिल को तोड़ के
दुनिया में पछताएं सभी रे
प्रीत का नाता जोड़ के
दुनिया में पछताएं सभी रे
प्रीत का नाता जोड़ के
बात बड़ों की न मानी रे
बात बड़ों की न मानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
प्रीत शहर की झूठी रे
जो करे सो किस्मत फूटी रे
दिन भर को है मिलया जुलया
हरदम रूठा रूठी रे
दिन भर को है मिलया जुलया
हरदम रूठा रूठी रे
इस प्रीत को आग लगानी रे
प्रीत को आग लगानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
बैठे नदी किनारे हो
जा के साँझ सकारे हो
दिन को मारे अछली मछली
गिने रात ओ तारे हो
दिन को मारे अछली मछली
गिने रात ओ तारे हो
रो रो उमर बितानी रे
रो रो उमर बितानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे
जानी रे
हम जानी रे

Atul ji…I do have a 78rpm record of this song but due to poor quality could not enjoy its lyrics and music…but with this posting by you my search is over…I am short of words to express my delight and joy…such a selfless effort is very very rare to find. I recommend you long on to http://www.indianscreen.com where great lyricists and music composers are remembered …this time it is Annasaheb Chitalkar…what a treasure they have opened for all of us. pl do visit the site. U will be delighted as I am.With love and affection to you and yr group….shriram d. moghe, pune.
