We know that S D Burman sang about 150 Bengali NFSs in the beginning of his career. Most of them became very popular. In Hindi, the number is about 25. We have 5 of them on the blog.
Today on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, here is a lesser known SDB song. I couldn’t get much detail. Looks like it must have been recorded in the year 1948, in the days following Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination. However some sources on internet mention the year as 1960 for this. Also this seems to be album containing more songs and titled as ‘Gun Dhaam Hamaare Gandhi jee’. I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this song and its details please.
Yesterday was the birth anniversary of S D Burman(01.10.1906 -31.10.1975), therefore this post also serves as a tribute to him on that occasion.
As always, my thanks to Avinash Scrapwala for his technical support and for providing the lyrics of this song.

Lyrics(Provided by Avinash Scrapwala)
gun dhaam hamaare Gandhi jee
shubh naam hamaare Gandhi jee
hain bharat maataa ke pyaare
thhe naiyyaa ke khewanhaare
hain bharat maataa ke pyaare
thhe naiyyaa ke khewanhaare
ye prem kaa tumko kaisaa milaa
parinaam hamaare Gandhi jee
gun dhaam hamaare Gandhi jee
shubh naam hamaare Gandhi jee
thhe sachche mitr Harijan ke
aur taare sab ke nainan ke
sab nirdhan ke
sab nirbal ke
balram hamaare Gandhi jee
gun dhaam hamaare Gandhi jee
shubh naam hamaare Gandhi jee
kho baithhe ham anmol ratan
ab paayen tum ko kaun jatan
kho baithhe ham anmol ratan
ab paayen tum ko kaun jatan
phir aa ke sunaa do raam bhajan
huyi shaam hamaare Gandhi jee
gun dhaam hamaare Gandhi jee
shubh naam hamaare Gandhi jee
ishwar kee sadaa ho tum pe dayaa
ham sab kee yahee hai dil se duaa
aa aa aa aa
ban jaaye hamaare bigde huye
sab kaam hamaare Gandhi jee
gun dhaam hamaare Gandhi jee
shubh naam hamaare Gandhi jee
