Genius of Jaidev – 32
———————————

Songs of Jaidev from 1967 ‘Hamaare Gham Se Mat Khelo’ are covered as far as I am concerned. The films after that are mostly such that they were not successful at the box-office and hence their songs are mostly unheard and un-available. Thanks to some collectors (with good taste) who are there and the request to them for odd songs are graciously fulfilled.

1969 film ‘Jiyo Aur Jeene Do’ was Produced by Apsara Arts, Bambai and directed by B Mastaan.  The film cast consisted of Tanuja, Shailesh Kumar, Jeevan, Helen, Mohan Choti, Chand Usmani, Uma Dutt, Kundan, Meenakshi, Sujata etc.

Hasrat Jaipuri and Naqsh Llayalpuri were the lyricist and the music was composed by Jaidev ji.  This song is written by Naqsh Llayalpuri.

One song by Rafi Saheb has already been covered earlier on this blog and this one is the second from the six songs mentioned in HFGK.  Hopefully I will be getting the remaining songs soon from my ever-helping well-wisher, to keep me busy for some time.

I completely agree with Atulbhai’s comment about compositions of Jaidev

It is a standard fate of Jaidev’s compositions that they are created in movies that end up as obscure movies. Fantastic compositions from Jaidev, are unfortunately ending up as unsung.

This song under discussion, has a very simple tune, (unlike Jaidev’s normal creations,) but has typical  Jaidev style Hindustani instrumental orchestra to accompany Usha’s singing.


Song – Jo Khwaab Sajaa Hai Palkon Mein (Jiyo Aur Jeene Do) (1969) Singer – Usha Mangeshkar, Lyrics – Naqsh Lyallpuri, MD – Jaidev

Lyrics

jo khwa..ab sajaa hai
palkon mein

jo khwaab sajaa hai palkon mein
wo khwaab haqeeqat ban jaaye
wo khwaab haqeeqat ban jaaye
ye dard jo dil mein jaaga hai
ye dard jo dil mein jaaga hai
ae kaash muhabbat ban jaaye
ae kaash muhabbat ban jaaye
ye dard jo dil mein jaaga hai
 
jaane kya soch kar shokh hoti gayeen
meri maasoom angadaaiyaan
jaane kya soch kar shokh hoti gayeen
meri maasoom angadaaiyaan
aaine ki nazar se milaa kar nazar
geet gaati hai tanhaai’aan
geet gaati hai tanhaai’aan
ye dard jo dil mein jaaga hai
ae kaash muhabbat ban jaaye
ae kaash muhabbat ban jaaye
ye dard jo dil mein jaaga hai
 
chaandani raat mein laakh chaahoon magar
neend aankhon mein ghulti nahin
chaandani raat mein laakh chaahoon magar
neend aankhon mein ghulti nahin
so rahoon to kisi ke jagaaye bina
ab meri aankh khulti nahin
ab meri aankh khulti nahin
jo khwaab sajaa hai palkon mein
wo khwaab hakikat ban jaaye

जो ख्वा॰॰ब सजा है
पलकों में

जो ख्वाब सजा है पलकों में
वो ख्वाब हक़ीक़त बन जाए
वो ख्वाब हक़ीक़त बन जाए
ये दर्द जो दिल में जागा है
ये दर्द जो दिल में जागा है
ए काश मुहब्बत बन जाए
ए काश मुहब्बत बन जाए
ये दर्द जो दिल में जागा है

जाने क्या सोच कर शोख होती गईं
मेरी मासूम अगड़ाईयाँ
जाने क्या सोच कर शोख होती गईं
मेरी मासूम अगड़ाईयाँ
आईने की नज़र से मिला कर नज़र
गीत गाती हैं तनहाईयाँ
गीत गाती हैं तनहाईयाँ
ये दर्द जो दिल में जागा है
ए काश मुहब्बत बन जाए
ए काश मुहब्बत बन जाए
ये दर्द जो दिल में जागा है

चाँदनी रात में लाख चाहूँ मगर
नींद आँखों में घुलती नहीं
चाँदनी रात में लाख चाहूँ मगर
नींद आँखों में घुलती नहीं
सो राहून तो किसी के जगाए बिना
अब मेरी आँख खुलती नहीं
अब मेरी आँख खुलती नहीं
जो ख्वाब सजा है पलकों में
वो ख्वाब हक़ीक़त बन जाए

Excellent sir it appears that jaidevji utilized these notes in tu chanda main chandni…. in Reshma aur shera with slight modifications. By the way can you mention a duet of Lata and Rafi in jaidevji’s music 🎶 direction please.

There is ONLY ONE duet of Lata and Rafi, ever composed by Jaidev, as far as I know, and that is a Quwaali from 1976 film ‘Laila Majnu’. After the demise of Madan Mohan, Jaidev completed that film and added this 7:43 minute Quwaali.
