Lagi mast nazar ki kataar

Looking for old songs picturized in the desert, I was about to give up, and thought of switching to ‘dessert’ songs instead. 🙂 I have some more newer desert songs in my list, which I absolutely will discuss, having only explored the desert of Rajashtan, bhuj etc. What with Egypt and even Arizona dersert featuring in some songs, there is a lot still left to be covered. But listening to all those new songs, I got a little bored. Today I was thinking of taking a break from this series and discussing some thing else. That was when I found this Lata-Rafi duet from film “Sehra- 1963′. And ‘ sone pe suhaaga ‘ I found a Rafi solo too , not yet discussed in the blog, picturized in the desert. And hero is singing this song while performing acrobatics riding a Camel, no less. So this is what I call a desert-cum-dessert song. 🙂
‘Sehra’ 1963 is a film with story based in desert. The music director of this film is Ram lal. Hasrat Jaipuri is the lyricist. A few songs of this film are all time classics, like Pankh hoti to udd aati re and Tum to pyaar ho sajna, the ever green Lata-Rafi duet, plus the two solo version song Taqdeer ka fasaana jaakar kise sunaayen.
The song is sung on screen on Prashant with Sandhya looking on, and then making an official complaint about the hero following here around.
Actually the audio version is a little longer, so the lyrics are as per the audio. The other lata-Rafi duet in the film is the song I have heard before, but I heard this this exuberant Rafi solo for the first time. This is just the icing on the cake that I cant wait to share with the readers here. So here is the song no. 6, of the ‘desert’ series.

Lyrics
lagi mast nazar ki kataar
haan haan haan
mast nazar ki kataar
dil ke utar gayee paar
inn pyaar ki raahon mein
ho inn pyaar ki raahon mein
dil bhi gayaa
ham bhi gaye
zakhm-e-jigar hai bahaar
mast nazar ki kataar
mast nazar ki kataar
dil ke utar gayee paar
inn pyar ki raahon mein
ho inn pyar ki raahon mien
dil bhi gayaa
ham bhi gaye
zakhm-e-jigar hai bahaar
ho mast nazar ki kataar
chehraa
aa haa
chehraa chamkeela
suraj ho jaise pyaar ka
baahen lehraati
naqshaa hai ek talwaar ka
ham to lut gaye
ham to lut gaye
khushi se ham to lut gaye
ae ae
khaamosh nazaaron mein
ho khaamosh nazaaron mein
pyaasi adaa
iss pe fidaa
ham to huye sau baar
ho mast nazar ki kataar
mast nazar ki kataar
dil ke utar gayee paar
inn pyar ki raahon mein
ho inn pyar ki raahon mein
dil bhi gayaa
ham bhi gaye
zakhm-e-jigar hai bahaar
ho mast nazar ki kataar
aankhen
haay haay
aankhen matwaali
ulfat ke jaise raaste
palken albeli
chhaaya hain mere waaste
jhoome zindagi
jhoome zindagi
nashe mein jhoome zindagi
ee
dilbar ke khayaalon mein
haay dilbar ke khayaalon mein
ham to magan
gaate chalen
pyaar ke naghme hazaar
mast nazar ki kataar
mast nazar ki kataar
arrey dil ke utar gayee paar
inn pyar ki raahon mein
ho inn pyar ki raahon mein
dil bhi gayaa
ham bhi gaye
zakhm-e-jigar hai bahaar
mast nazar ki kataar
khushboo
ha aa
khushoo zulfon ki
aati hai sard hawaaon se
khoyaa chaahat mein
ab guzroon hoon jis gaaon se
yaaden gher len
yaaden gher len
ham ko yaaden gher len
jungle ki fizaaon mein
ho jungle ki fizaaon mein
woh jo nahin
pheeka lage
rang bhara sansaar
mast nazar ki kataar
mast nazar ki kataar
dil ke utar gayee paar
haay haay haay
inn pyar ki raahon mien
ho inn pyar ki raahon mien
dil bhi gayaa
ham bhi gaye
zakhm-e-jigar hai bahaar
ho mast nazar ki kataar
dil ke utar gayee paar
inn pyar ki raahon mien
ho inn pyar ki raahon mien
dil bhi gayaa
ham bhi gaye
zakhm-e-jigar hai bahaar
ho mast nazar ki kataar
haa haa haa

Eventhough radio stations don`t play this song more often, I watched it when they showed this movie on Doordarshan Sunday evening slot in late 80`s. Very good song.
