#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-50)
—————————–
“Preet Ka Geet-1950” was directed by Girish Trivedi for ‘Kalaakaar Chitra, Bombay’. The cast of this movie, as mentioned in Geet Kosh Vol-II, are Sulochana Chatterjee, Prem Adeeb, Gulab, Shashikala, Cuckoo, Badri Prasad, Shyam Sundar, M. Khanjar, Urvashi and others. The music for this movie was composed by Shyam Babu Pathak. This movie has eleven songs written by Kavi Pradeep and Premi. Out of the eleven songs from this movie, eight songs have been posted on the blog earlier.
Geet Kosh Vol-II (1941-1950) mentions the name of the lyricist only for five songs. All these five songs are credited to lyricist Premi.
The lyricist name has been left blank for the remaining six songs. However the filmography of Kavi Pradeep in a book on him i.e. ‘Kavi Pradeep Kaa Hindi Saahitya Mein Avdaan0 (by Dr Dinesh Chanda Awasthi)’, mentions four songs as penned by Kavi Pradeep for this movie. (Though, the song up-loaders for these four songs have mentioned the lyricist name as Kavi Pradeep and Premi). I have considered the following four songs as songs written by Kavi Pradeep.*
1) kholo kholo man ke dwaar muraaree re – posted on the blog on 20.07.2020
2) kisee se ham naheen kahte… – posted on the blog on 21.11.2025
3) main preet ka geet sunaaun – posted on the blog on 21.04.2025
4) dar dar khojein tujhko baalam …
*(But I have now noted that the above book mentions the name of the music composer for the movie for the four songs of Kavi Pradeep as ‘Shankar Lal and Bala Singh. I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this please).
Today I am presenting the ninth song from this movie on the blog. This song is sung by Geeta Dutt and music is composed by Shyam Babu Pathak. Lyricist for this song is Kavi Pradeep. Only audio of this song is available.
Let us now listen to this song. We can assume that with this song all the four songs written by Kavi Pradeep for this movie ‘Preet Kaa Geet-1950’ are thus covered on this blog.
Song-Dar dar khojein tumko baalam mere naina baawre (Preet Ka Geet)(1950) Singer-Geeta Dutt, Lyrics-Kavi Pradeep, MD-Shyam Babu Pathak
Lyrics
dar dar khojein tumko baalam
mere nainaa baawre ae
kahaan chhupe ho
kahaan gaye ho
mere saajan saanware
mere saajan saanware
dar dar khojein
naachen meree sakhee sahelee
naachen saaraa zamaanaa
naachen meree sakhee sahelee
naachen saaraa zamaanaa
ho o
naachen saaraa zamaanaa
main dukhiyaaree naach naa
paaun
dil mein jaltee jwaalaa
haay dil mein jaltee jwaalaa
tan man ko jhulsaaye bedardee
ye teraa bartaav re ae
ye teraa bartaav re
dar dar khojein
dar dar khojein tumko balam
mere nainaa baawre ae
kahaan chhupe ho kahaan gaye ho
mere saajan saanware
mere saajan saanware
dar dar khojein
chaar dinon kee chaandnee ke baad andheree raat kyun
haay andheree raat kyun
chaar dinon kee chaandnee ke baad andheree raat kyun
haay andheree raat kyun
ho dil ko hansaanewaale
bhar gaye aankhon mein barsaat kyun
haay aankhon mein barsaat kyun
meraa chaand milegaa kaise
poochhoon gaaon gaaon re
poochhoon gaaon gaaon re
dar dar khojein
aasmaan bhee ro padtaa hai ae
aasmaan bhee ro padtaa hai
sun kar meraa ronaa aa
sun kar meraa ronaa aa
chhaan liyaa hai is dhartee kaa maine konaa konaa aa
aasmaan bhee ro padtaa hai
sun kar meraa ronaa aa
sun kar meraa ronaa
chhaan liyaa hai is dhartee kaa maine konaa konaa aa
dil to thhaknaa naheen jaantaa
thhak gaye mere paaon re ae
thhak gaye mere paaon re ae
dar dar khojein
dar dar khojein tumko baalam
mere nainaa baawre ae
kahaan chhupe ho kahaan gaye ho
mere saajan saanware
mere saajan saanware
dar dar khojein
