Today 28th September 2025 is the 96th Birth Anniversary of the Nightingale of India Lata Mangeshkar. So here’s a rare song to celebrate this happy day. The song is “Gaon Gaon Ghoomi Shaher Shaher Chaana” from Jalte Badan (1973). The song is written by Maya Govind and composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal.

Regular readers of this blog will remember my recent post from this movie, giving you the details of the movie and its story.

This song is lip synced by Kum Kum and her character sings it when she comes to the city to search for her lover, Kiran Kumar.

The lyrics are based on audio version which seems longer but the last 90+ seconds is only been (mostly played on an instrument called Clavioline) music.

Lyrics:

na koi chithhi na khabar r r
jab se chhoda gaaon
bhatkoon tere daras ko
thhake nain aur paaon

gaaon gaaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhaana
gaaon gaaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhaana
tere milne ka re koi
bana na bahaana
bedardee toone haaye
dard na jaana
gaaon gaaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhaana
tere milne ka koi
bana na bahaana
gaaon gaaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhaana

tu jo mil jaaye toh mera
dard-e-dil jaaye
to mujhko chain aa jaye
wo meethhee rain aa jaaye
jiske kiye waade
tere jhoothhe thhe iraade
sainyyan hum seedhe saadhe
koi aur na bhaaye
kahaan se ye seekha toone
nazrein churaana
gaaon gaaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhana
bedardee toone haaye
dard na jaana

naagan ban ke jhoomoon yahaan
galiyon galiyon ghoomon
agar paa jaaon to choomoon
tere paaon ke nishaan
prem kee been bajaa ke
sapere dil churaa ke
koi jaadu sa jagaa ke
chhup gaya hai kahaan
koi na bataaye re
tera pata na thhikaana
gaaon gaaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhana
bedardee toone haaye
dard na jaana
tere milne ka re koi
bana na bahaana
gaaon gaon ghoomee
shahar shahar chhaana
bedardee toone haaye
dard na jaana
