Song-Chalte hain gareebon pe hi khanjar naye naye (Phool Aur Kaante)(1948) Singer-Meena Kapoor, Lyrics-Vishwamitra Adil, MD-Dada Chandekar
Lyrics
Chalte hain gareebon pe hi khanjar naye naye
Chalte hain gareebon pe hi khanjar naye naye
ik jaan aur hazaar
ik jaan aur hazaar sitamgar naye naye
dhul jaaye intezaar
wo aansoo hi na rahe
aansoo hi na rahe
dhul jaaye intezaar
wo aansoo hi na rahe
aansoo hi na rahe
daaman pe daag lagte hain
aksar naye naye
Chalte hain gareebon pe hi khanjar naye naye
is zindagi ka raasta kat’ta hi nahin hai
kat’ta hi nahin hai
sar phodne ko milte hain patthar naye naye
Chalte hain gareebon pe hi khanjar naye naye
himmat ka imtihaan
kya leta hai zamaana
kya leta hai zamaana
himmat ka imtihaan
kya leta hai zamaana
kya leta hai zamaana
sehte rahe hain umr bhar nashtar naye naye
ik jaan aur hazaar
ik jaan aur hazaar sitamgar naye naye
Chalte hain gareebon pe hi khanjar naye naye
