This is one song that I just loved to listen to, when I paid attention to its lyrics. The lyrics by Shakeel Badayuni captures the feelings of a newly married typical India woman of those days beautifully.

Wow! It is a gem that has been forgotten by most people though it should not have been the case. It is an outstanding song in every count. Asha Bhonsle and Geeta Dutt, the two outstanding singers of that era, sing together in this song. Shailendra is the lyricist and S D Burman is the music director. And they are at their best in this song.
