Ham kyun rote hain raaton ko

Posted on: April 13, 2013


“Darbaar” (1955) was a Golden Movie production. It was directed by V Vakil. The movie had Mahipal, Chitra, Sunder, Tiwari, Kammo, Kamal, Niranjan Sharma etc in it, which suggests that it was a B grade movie.

Five songs from this movie have been discussed in the past. Here is the sixth song from the movie. It is sung by Geeta Dutt. Asad Bhopali is the lyricist. Music is composed by Hansraj Bahl.

Only the audio of this song is available and so it is difficult to say for sure about the picturisation of the song. My guess is that this song was picturised on the leading lady of this movie, viz Chitra. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.

Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Nitin Shah.


Song-Ham kyun rote hain raaton ko (Darbaar)(1955) Singer-Geeta Dutt, Lyrics-Asad Bhopali, MD-Hansraj Bahl

Lyrics(Provided by Nitin Shah)

ham kyun rote hain raaton ko
ham kyu rote hain raaton ko
koi kya jaane in baaton ko
ham kyun rote hain raaton ko

chup rehke har ek gham sehte hain
tanhai mein aansu behte hain
chup rehke har ek gham sehte hain
tanhai mein aansu behte hain
ham sabse chhipaaye rehete hain
in bemausam barsaaton ko
ham kyun rote hain raaton ko

toota hua dil bechain nazar
din raat sulagne waala jigar
toota hua dil bechain nazar
din raat sulagne waala jigar
ae pyaar bataa de jaayen kidhar
ham le ke teri saugaaton ko
ham kyun rote hain raaton ko

dukh dard sahe shiqwe na kiye
har roz mare har roz jiye
dukh dard sahe shiqwe na kiye
har roz mare har roz jiye
hamne bhi dua karne ke liye
sau baar uthaaya haathon ko
ham kyun rote hain raaton ko

हम क्यूँ रोते हैं रातों को
हम क्यूँ रोते हैं रातों को
कोई क्या जाने इन बातों को
हम क्यूँ रोते हैं रातों को

चुप रहके हर एक ग़म सहते हैं
तनहाई में आँसू बहते हैं
चुप रहके हर एक ग़म सहते हैं
तनहाई में आँसू बहते हैं
हम सबसे छिपाए रहते हैं
इन बेमौसम बरसातों को
हम क्यूँ रोते हैं रातों को

टूटा हुआ दिल बेचैन नज़र
दिन रात सुलगने वाला जिगर
टूटा हुआ दिल बेचैन नज़र
दिन रात सुलगने वाला जिगर
ऐ प्यार बता दे जाएँ किधर
हम ले के तेरी सौगातों को
हम क्यूँ रोते हैं रातों को

दुख दर्द सहे शिकवे ना किए
हर रोज़ मरे हर रोज़ जिये
दुख दर्द सहे शिकवे ना किए
हर रोज़ मरे हर रोज़ जिये
हमने भी दुआ करने के लिए
सौ बार उठाया हाथों को
हम क्यूँ रोते हैं रातों को

Nitin ji,

Thanks for bringing in this wonderful sound of melancholy. The words and the rendering are really very touching.

Two corrections to the lyrics. The lines
“ham sabse sitaare kehete hai
ham bemausam barsaton ko”
should read
“ham sabse chhipaaye rehete hain
in bemausam barsaaton ko”

Further, the lines
“ae pyaar bataa de jaayen kidhar
ham hain ke teri saugaaton ko”
should read as
“ae pyaar bataa de jaayen kidhar
ham le ke teri saugaaton ko”
