Ham aaj safar ko chaley
Posted on: April 1, 2013
“Raja Vikram” (1957) was a Sharad productions movie. It was directed by Dhirubhai Desai. The movie had Shahu Modak, Usha Kiran, Bhagwan, Nigar Sultana, Suryakant etc in it.
Here is a rare song from this obscure movie. The song is sung by Rafi. Lyrics are by B M Vyas (?) Bharat Vyas . Music is composed by Baldev Nath Bali.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Avinash Scrapwala.
I request our knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie, picturisation of the song as well as on the lyricist and music director.
Song-Hum aaj safar ko chaley (Raja Vikram)(1957) Singer-Rafi, Lyrics-Bharat Vyas, MD-Baldev Nath Bali

Lyrics(Provided by Avinash Scrapwala)
Aa aa aa aa
hum aaj safar ko chaley
hum aaj safar ko chaley
kabhi din ugey
kabhi din dhale
magar is aasmaan ke taley
dekho ji hum aaj safar ko chaley
aa aa aa aa
arre ho o
upar neela neela hain ambar
aa aa aa aa
aa aa aa aa
upar neeela neela hain ambar
neeche hai dharti pyaari re
hHari hari dharti hai pyaari
in donon ke beech machaltey
beete umariya saari re
ho beetey umar hamaari
kabhi kaanton par ham chaley
phoolon mein palen
jo hi sukh dukh ki ghadiyaan chaley
dekho ji hum aaj safar ko chaley
aa aa aa aa
hum aandhi aur toofaanon se ladnewaale
hum jaan hatheli par lekar chalnewaale
lambi hai dagar
humko nahin darr
lambi hai dagar
humko nahin darr
jis raah humen kheenche
manzil ko liye hum chalte hain
inn paaon neeche
Inn paaon neeche
hum aaj safar ko chaley
aa aa aa aa
aafat se nahin darne waale
hum sach ke liye marne waale
hum sach ke liye marne waale
hamen raah dharm ki pyaari
insaaf ke hum hain pujaari
insaaf ke hum hain pujaari
bebas ke liye bekas ke liye
qurbaan ye jaan hamaari
qurbaan ye jaan hamari
hum aaj safar ko chaley
kabhi din ugye kabhi din dhale
magar is aasmaan ke taley
dekho ji hum aaj safar ko chaley
aa aa aa aa

Lyricist: Bharat Vyas
MD: B N Bali
myswar has most data from geetkosh from 1941 onwards. Would be useful for a quick sanity check in case of a confusion. Or it would spread. Like Nitin Shahji here would sleep tonight thinking B M Vyas wrote this song 🙂

Thanks for the information. Will check myswar in case of doubt in future. for this song even imdb mentions the lyricist as BM Vyas.

ur welcome. since u seem to be using ur mobile during daily travels to check out such things, u may want to download myswar app too.
regarding imdb, its a joke as far as music soundtrack info is considered. they have long ways to go. their movie database is reasonably good, but now they have started screwing with that one as well, displaying “english” movie names in place of the original hindi names and putting up incorrect year of release info for many movies which used to be correct at one point.

From Geet Kosh listings, the lyricist is definitely Bharat Vyas.

Avinash,
What a song. Written by BM Vyas brother of B Vyas, who died a month ago. Didn’t knew about this facet. Thanks
