Today’s Kavi Pradeep song is from the movie ‘Chandi Poojaa-1957’. Kavi Pradeep is also the singer of this song, and it gives me immense pleasure to add one more song sung by him on this blog.

Geet Kosh Vol-III (1951-1960) mentions in the foot-note on the page of this movie that this movie ‘Chandi Pujaa’ was the last movie of actress Shanta Apte.

Song-Suno sunaaoon tumhen ek kahaanee (Chandi Puja)(1957) Singer-Kavi Pradeep, Lyrics – Kavi Pradeep, Music – Ajit Merchant
Lyrics
suno sunaaun tumhe ek kahaanee
ek thhaa raajaa
ek thhee raanee
unke ek thhaa kunwar laasaanee
bholaa bhaalaa magar gumaanee
bade chain se guzar rahee thhee
teenon kee zindagaanee re ae ae
sunon kahaanee ee
lekin ek samaan kisee kaa
samay na rahne paayaa aa
sukh ke baad hai dukh kee baaree
dhoop ke baad hai chhaayaa
isee niyam anusaar ek din
un par sankat aayaa aa
bichhad gaye raajaa aur raanee
apnaa laal ganwaayaa
abhee abhee kee baat hai ye
mat samjho isey puraanee re ae ae
suno kahaanee ee
sunon sunaaun tumhen ek kahaanee
ek thhaa raajaa ek thhee raanee ee
jungle jungle phiraa kayee din
singhaasan kaa swamee ee
aakhir apne pet kee khaatir
karnee padee ghulaamee ee
raanee kaa kuchh haal na poochho
jaanen antaryaamee ee
sunaa hai wo bhee daasee ban kar
bhartee aaj salmaaee
jab jab aatee yaad ye baatein
bhar bhar aataa paanee re ae
sunon kahaanee ee
sunon sunaaun tumhen ek kahaanee
ek thhaa raajaa ek thhee raanee ee
badaa kathhin hotaa hai jag mein
chakkar burey dinon kaa aa
milne naheen detaa bichhdon ko
haay bhaagya kaa jhonkaa
paas paas hain raajaa raanee
phir bhee khaa rahe dhokhaa
naa jaane kab chandee maataa
degee milan kaa maukaa
ab to hai bas unkaa bharosaa
rakshaa karey bhavaanee re ae
sunon kahaanee ee
