Two days ago, Suman ji completed the 79th milestone of her melodic life. It is so hard to believe that she is now so senior in years. Some months back, maybe almost a year, she was in Delhi and was present on stage for a singing performance. Unfortunately I myself was not able to make it. But other friends who had attended had said that she continues to be as impressive in her voice, as she was before. Still as sweet, and ‘sureeli’ as Bharat ji would put it.
I have been away from connectivity for the past 36 hours or so, and hence the delay in getting this post online on time. But yes, the occasion is Suman ji’a birthday, and I am sure all friends and readers join me in celebrations and greetings for her. And with prayers for many more healthy and melodious years still to come.
I present today, a very obscure melody from way back in 1954. This was the debut year for her as a singer in Hindi films. Her first recorded Hindi film song is acknowledged to be the sweet melody from the film ‘Mangu’ (1954) – “Koi Pukaare Dheere Se”. In the same year, the film ‘Darwaaza’ was also released and it carries 5 songs by her. Music director Nashaad entrusted her with two solo songs, one duet with Talat Sb and two group songs with Sabita Bannerji and Kamla. The duet with Talat Sb “Ek Dil Do Hain Talabgaar” and one of the group songs “Chaand Wo Nikla Pyaara Pyaara” is already showcased here on this blog. Today I bring one of her solo songs for your listening pleasure.
And I am sure, aap bhi sun kar yehi kahenge – what a wonderful creation this one is, and goodness where has it been hiding for all these years. Yes, this song was released sixty two years ago. As I searched, I am able to locate the video of this song. On screen, this song is performed by Shyama. It is a kind of dream and a dance song, as she seems to step into a reverie and this song is played. Near the end of the clip, we can also briefly see Suresh appear, in the dream itself.
The words are from the pen of Majrooh Sb. Listen to it, and I am sure you will want to listen to it again. And again.
Enjoy.
(Note: I have also added the audio of the song. The video clip has some missing words in the third antaraa).

Lyrics
aag lagey..e..e..e
aag lagey..e..e..e
aag lagey is saawan mein
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
aag lagey is saawan mein
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ye hai jawaani ya wohi bachpan
ho oo oo
ya wohi bachpan
phir wohi armaan phir wohi dhadkan
jaan padi kis uljhan mein
chubh gaya
oo chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
aag lagey is saawan mein
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
kaun mila..aa..aa.aa
kaun mila ye mod pe aa ke
reh gayi main to aankh jhuka ke
haath ulajh gaye daaman mein
chubh gaya
o chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
aag lagey is saawan mein
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
jhoom ke aise chhaai bahaaren
ho oo oo
chhaai bahaaren
phoot rahin hain dil se phuhaaren
kaliyan khilne lagi tan mein
chubh gaya
o chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
aag lagey is saawan mein
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein
ho oo oo
chubh gaya kaanta mann mein

आग लगे॰॰ए॰॰ए॰॰ए
आग लगे॰॰ए॰॰ए॰॰ए
आग लगे इस सावन में
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
आग लगे इस सावन में
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
ये है जवानी या वही बचपन
हो ओ ओ
या वही बचपन
फिर वही अरमां फिर वोही धड़कन
जान पड़ी किस उलझन में
चुभ गया
ओ चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
आग लगे इस सावन में
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
कौन मिला॰॰आ॰॰आ॰॰आ
कौन मिला ये मोड़ पे आके
रह गई मैं तो आँख छुपा के
हाथ उलझ गए दामन में
चुभ गया
ओ चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
आग लगे इस सावन में
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
झूम के ऐसे छाई बहारें
हो ओ ओ
छाई बहारें
फूट रहीं हैं दिल से फुहारें
कलियाँ खिलने लगी तन में
चुभ गया
ओ चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
आग लगे इस सावन में
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
हो ओ ओ
चुभ गया काँटा मन में
