Today (25 june 2016) is the birth anniversary of Madan Mohan (25 june 1924- 14 july 1975). We are discussing a few songs composed by Madan Mohan on this occasion.
Here is a song from “Ilzaam”(1954). This movie was produced and directed by R C Talwar. The movie had Meena Kumari, Kishore Kumar, Shammi, Randheer, Meera Devi, Amar, Jagdish Kamal, Om Prakash, Jagdish Sethi etc in it.
The song is a philosophical bhajan. It is sung by Manna Dey. Rajinder Krishan is the lyricist. Music is composed by Madan Mohan.
Picturisation shows an elderly person (that I am unable to identify) lip syncing this song while Meena Kumari is also visible in the picturisation. as things go in Hindi movies, this song is meant for Meena Kumari of course, who apparently is required to put up a brave face for some hardship that has befallen her. I am of course guessing all this based on my past experience of watching Hindi movies. 🙂 I request our knowledgeable readers to tell us the context in which this song is taking place in the movie.

Song-Ye jag rain basera bande (Ilzaam)(1954) Singer-Manna Dey, Lyrics-Rajinder Krishan, MD-Madan Mohan
Lyrics
ye duniya aa
kaanton ki bagiya aa aa
moh maaya ka ghera
ye jag rain basera bande
na tera na mera aa aa
ye jag rain basera bande
na tera na mera
chadhta sooraj dhalti chhaaya
chadhta sooraj
dhalti chhaaya
jogi waala ghera aa aa
na tera na mera aa aa
ye jag rain basera bande
na tera na mera
karman ki gat aisi nyaari ee
karman ki gat aisi nyaari
na samjhe sansaari ee ee
karman ki gat aisi nyaari
na samjhe sansaari
chaar dinon ki ye phulwaari
chaar dinon ki ye phulwaari
chaar ghadi ka dera aa aa
na tera na mera
ye jag rain basera bande
na tera na mera
laakh lagaaye moorakh mela
laakh lagaye moorakh mela
phir bhi jaaye akela aa aa
laakh lagaaye moorakh mela
phir bhi jaaye akela
sada rahi na rahe chandaniya
sada rahi na rahe chandaniya
aakhir ghor andhera
na tera na mera aa aa
ye jag rain basera bande
na tera na mera aa aa
ye jag rain basera aa

Yes , it is Jagdish Sethi.
This was the only song in his entire career which he got to lip synch in a film.

Atulji,
Looks like he is Jagdish Sethi. Confirmation required.
Thanks for remembering Madan ji on his 92nd birth anniversary. 🙂
