Miss 58 (1958) was directed by Kuldip Kahar under A K Movies banner and had a star cast of Suraiya, Karan Diwan, Om Prakash, Baby Naaz, Madan Puri, Krishna Kumari and others. Music of the film was by N Dutta and the lyrics were by Kaif Irfani.
I have not much knowledge about this film, and some expert like Arun-ji may throw some light. What impressed me about the song is the classically based simple tune and of course the very soulful and melodious song emotionally sung by Suraiya
Since she had stopped giving play back after the song ‘Panchhi jaa’ in 1942 ‘Sharada’ for Mehtab, this song must have been picturized on the heroine of the film Suraiya herself.
Song-Ab teri yaad hai (Miss 58)(1958) Singer-Suraiya, Lyrics-Kaif Irfani, MD-N Dutta
Lyrics
ab teri yaad hai aur pyaar ki tanhaayi hai ae
ab teri yaad hai
tere dar se mujhe taqdeer kahaan laayi hai ae ae
ab teri yaad hai
o o o
hai meri apni khataa
tujh pe to ilzaam nahin
din ko ab chain nahin
raat ko aaraam nahin ee
mujhse jo bhool huyi
uski sazaa paayi hai ae
ab teri yaad hai
gham ke uthhte huye toofaan phansa dete hain ain
mere tadpe huye armaan phansa dete hain
gham ke uthate huye toofaan phansa dete hain
mere tadpe huye armaan phansaa dete hain
meri kashti kisi toofaan se takraayi hai
ab teri yaad hai
o o o
dil to kehtaa hai mujhe teri gali jaane ko
kaise samjhaaoon main ab pyaar ke deewaane ko o
meraa jaanaa hi meri preet ki rusvaayi hai ae
ab teri yaad hai
