Mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi

“Suhaagraat” (1948) was an Oriental Pictures production. It was directed by Kidar Sharma. The movie had Bharat Bhushan, Begam Para, Geeta Bali, Maruti etc in it.
Six songs from this movie have been discussed in the past. Here is the seventh song from this movie. This song is sung by Shamshad Begam and Geeta Dutt. The song is written by Kidar Sharma. Music is composed by Snehal Bhatkar.
The song is picturised as a chariot / tonga song. The picturisation shows Begam Para seated royally on the carriage and two of her female attendants (one of them being Geeta Bali) lip syncing this song. It is clear from the picturisation that the song was picturised in a studio and the illusion of movement has been created by using the back projection technology. Seeing how old the movie is, this could well have been one of the earliest instance of this technology in Hindi movies.
The two voices sing all the lines in tandem and the singers do not get individual lines to sing. I have been noticing that Snehal Bhatkar composed several songs like this during his career.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Nitin Shah.

Lyrics(Provided by Nitin Shah)
mere dil ki ho
mere seene ki
mere dhadkano mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
mere dil ki
ho mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
har shaakh jhoomne lagi
har phool muskuraya
har phool muskuraya
har phool muskuraya re
har phool muskuraaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
mere seene ki
jab nadi ne jal tarang sunaaya aa aa
nadi ne jal tarang sunaaya aa aa
jab kaanpte honthon se maine
tera geet gaaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
har shaakh jhoomne lagi
har phool muskuraaya
har phool muskuraaya
har phool muskuraaya re
har phool muskuraaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
mere seene ki
mujhe toone kya pilaaya
jis taare per nazar padi
wo taara ladkhdaaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
har shaakh jhoomne lagi
har phool muskuraaya
har phool muskuraaya
har phool muskuraaya re
har phool muskuraaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
mere seene ki
tu dhadkanen tatolne
he ae ae ae
ae ae ae
jab dil ke paas aaya aa aa
kyun maine munh chhupa liya
kyun maine sar jhukaaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
har shaakh jhoomne lagi
har phool muskuraaya
har phool muskuraaya
har phool muskuraaya re
har phool muskuraaya
mere seene ki
mere dil ki dhadkanon mein sakhi
kaun aa samaaya
mere seene ki

I think the sweetest song by Shamshad whose voice was not known for sweetness. Great selection. Thanks.
