#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Dharti-1946’. This movie was directed by Manibhai Vyas and the cast of this movie had Mumtaz Shanti, Trilok Kapoor, Padma Banerji, Vikram Kapoor, Baby Anwari, Sheikh Hussain, Pandit Iqbal, Jugal Kishore, Lakshman, Mustafa, Leela Shinde, and Tipnis. Lyrics for this film were penned by Pandit Indra and Music was composed by Bulo C Rani.

‘Dharti-1946’ has eleven songs as listed in Geet Kosh Vol-II (1941-1950). The lyricist for all the songs is Pandit Indra. Geet Kosh mentions the singer’s name for nine songs and they are Manna Dey, Hamida Bano, Mohantara Talpade, and A.R. Ojha. Three songs from this movie have been posted earlier on the blog.

Today I am presenting the fourth song from this movie and it is in the voice of Mohantara Talpade.

Only audio of this song is available. I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs please.


Song-Mere ghar kyon andhera chhaaya (Dharti)(1946) Singer-Mohantara Talpade, Lyricist-Pt Indra Chandra, MD-Bulo C Rani

Lyrics

mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa
mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa
maine kiskaa diyaa bujhaayaa

mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa
mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa

bhare jagat mein
khadee akelee ee ee
ee ee ee ee
ee ee ee ee
bhare jagat mein
khadee akelee
dukhiyaa dukhdaa gaaye ae
dukhiyaa dukhdaa gaaye ae
apne hee deepak se
apne ghar ko aag lagaaye ae
apne hee deepak se
apne ghar ko aag lagaaye ae
bin khiley kamal kumhlaayaa
bin khiley kamal kumhlaayaa
kumhlaayaa aa

ho raam

maine kiskaa diyaa bujhaayaa
ho o
maine kiskaa diyaa bujhaayaa
ho o
mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa
mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa

jin nainon mein rehte sapne ae ae ae
ae ae ae ae ae ae
jin nainon mein rehte sapne
unmein aansoo chhaaye ae ae
unmein aansoo chhaaye ae
le kar koyee bujhee aartee
jaise sajan bulaaye ae
le kar koyee bujhee aartee
jaise sajan bulaaye
ho raam
ho raam
ho raam
maine paa kar ratan ganwaayaa
ho o
mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa
mere ghar kyon andheraa chhaayaa
