Ta’areef uss khuda ki jis ne jahaan banaaya – Non-Film Song (Jagjit & Chitra Singh)

तारीफ़ उस ख़ुदा की जिस ने जहां बनाया
कैसी ज़मीं बनाई क्या आसमां बनाया

पांव तले बिछाया क्या ख़ूब फ़र्श-ए-ख़ाकी
और सर पे लाजवर्दी इक साएबां बनाया

मिट्टी से बेल-बूटे क्या ख़ुशनुमा उगाए
पहना के सब्ज़ ख़िलअत उन को जवां बनाया

ख़ुश-रंग और ख़ुशबू गुल फूल हैं खिलाए
इस ख़ाक के खंडर को क्या गुलिस्तां बनाया

मेवे लगाए क्या क्या ख़ुश-ज़ाएक़ा रसीले
चखने से जिन के मुझ को शीरीं-दहां बनाया

सूरज बना के तू ने रौनक़ जहां को बख़्शी
रहने को ये हमारे अच्छा मकां बनाया

प्यासी ज़मीं के मुंह में मेंह का चुवाया पानी
और बादलों को तू ने मेंह का निशां बनाया

ये प्यारी प्यारी चिड़ियां फिरती हैं जो चहकती
क़ुदरत ने तेरी उन को तस्बीह-ख़्वां बनाया

तिनके उठा उठा कर लाईं कहां कहां से
किस ख़ूब-सूरती से फिर आशियां बनाया

ऊंची उड़ें हवा में बच्चों को पर न भूलें
इन बे-परों का उन को रोज़ी-रसां बनाया

क्या दूध देने वाली गाएं बनाईं तू ने
चढ़ने को मेरे घोड़ा क्या ख़ुश-इनां बनाया

रहमत से तेरी क्या क्या हैं नेमतें मयस्सर
इन नेमतों का मुझ को है क़द्र-दां बनाया

आब-ए-रवां के अंदर मछली बनाई तू ने
मछली के तैरने को आब-ए-रवां बनाया

हर चीज़ से है तेरी कारीगरी टपकती
ये कारख़ाना तू ने कब राएगां बनाया

Ismail Meerathhi writes the above “Hamd”. The above is the full Hamd in ghazal format, in devnagari script.

“Tarif us Khuda ki jisne jahan banaya” is a famous Urdu poem (Nazm) by Ismail Merathi (1844-1917), a pivotal figure in modern Urdu literature known for awakening intellect through simple, descriptive verses, particularly for children, focusing on nature, God’s creation, and moral lessons, making this poem a classic praise of the Creator’s artistry in making the world.

Mukesh and his NFS – 13

More than a decade back, 27 August 2015, to be precise, I had a written a special post on the Remembrance Day of Mukesh.

It was special in the sense that it dealt with the composing career of Mukesh in my series Mukesh and his Composers.

Mukesh and his NFS – 12

Mukesh had an excellent rapport and good association with composer Khaiyyam. He sang about 18 filmi and 10 NFS.

I have mentioned and enlisted all these 28 songs in my earlier posts. They can be found here and here.

I cannot but help notice that the festivals of Holi and Deepawali are almost diametrically opposite to each other. They fall six months apart. Holi is observed on Poornima. Deepawali is observed on Amawasya. Holi is celebrated in day time (mostly first half of the day). Deepawali is celebrated at night time. On the day of Holi, roads are deserted. Public transport services that are usually jam packed run empty on this day. During Deepawali, public transport services run overbooked and there is no way one can get accomodation on trains on this day.

Mukesh and his NFS – 11

In the annals of HFM, the association of Mukesh with composers Kalyanji-Anand ji will remain inscribed in golden letters for decades to come.

Class, genres, melody, numbers; you name it, you have it.

And, before the readers jump to conclusions, this post is not listing the songs of the combo. That will have to wait for another day since much work is involved in preparation of the long table as the numbers are in 3 digits. It will also involve multiple verifications so that no songs are missed.

In this regard, and in spite of posting 90+ Mukesh songs, it is an incomplete work if the following are not covered.

• Mukesh’s association with Shankar Jaikishen, Kalayanji Anandji and Laxmikant Pyarelal.
• Mukesh’s songs with Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosale.
• Mukesh’s songs for Raj Kapoor.

I am cognizant of this huge lacuna in my work and will endeavor to complete the tasks.

Today, I take up a rather easier task. That of Mukesh’s NFS with Kalyanji Anandji.

Mukesh sang in about 56 Hindi films scored by Kalyanji Anandji and in about 5 films which did not see the light of the day; meaning they remained unreleased.

As far as NFS are concerned, apparently, there are none as such. But, MGK-II lists three songs under NFS category. Guess what? All three NFS have some “film in the making”, “shelved” and “unreleased” sort of tags associated with them.

Here is the short table of the 3 “NFS”.

S. No Name of the song Lyricist
1 Na kajre ki dhaar, na motiyon ke haar Indeewar
2 Main chakori tum gagan ke chandrama Unknown
3 Hey re dayamay apni daya se Unknown

Needless to say, 1 and 3 are already represented on the blog. I would request readers to open the links of the two posted NFS as they are very interesting songs.

1 as I have detailed in the post is probably from an incomplete film “Navagraha”.

3 was from a released film, but the said song itself was not included in the film.

Today’s duet with an unknown female co-singer and an unknown lyricist is also probably from an incomplete film “Poornima”. Please note that the combo also has songs in another released film of the same title Purnima (1965). In this film, Mukesh has 3 glorious songs.

Two solos and an evergreen duet with Lata Mangeshkar. I am tempted to start writing on the songs of the combo now itself, but then that post will have to wait.

For today, we have this last NFS (a duet) of Mukesh under Kalyanji Anandji’s composition with a female singer whose identity is not known.

Editor’s note: The female voice sounds like Suman Kalyanpur.

Song-Main chakoree tum gagan ke chandrma (Mukesh NFS)(1970) Singers-Mukesh, Suman Kalyanpur, Lyricist-Unknown, MD-Kalyanji Anandji

Lyrics

Ho o o
ho o o
aa aa aa aa aa aa

Main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma
main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornima
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

phool apne aap man ke khil gaye ae
phool apne aap man ke khil gaye ae
maine maangee thhee kiran tum mil gaye ae
maine maangee thhee kiran tum mil gaye ae
?? ke aaj baahon mein sama chandrma

main adhooraa hoon tumhaare bin poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

kalpana ke taar kyun phir se hiley
kalpana ke taar kyun phir se hiley
aaj se pehle bhee thhey kya hum miley
aaj se pehle bhee thhey kya hum miley
jaanee pehchaanee lage tu priytama priytama
main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

maangtee hain mujhse kya ankhiyaan teree
maangtee hain mujhse kya ankhiyaan teree
ho o maang bhar de aaj taaron se meree
maang bhar de aaj taaron se meree
beet na jaaye suhaana ye samaa ye samaa

main adhooraa bin tumhaare poornimaa
ho main chakoree
tum gagan ke chandrma chandrma

Mukesh and his NFS – 10

Chaand si chamkti raaton mein,
Aaya na koi wada kar ke

I present yet another NFS whose composer is not known.

The first three words of the song will surely take back readers to the well-known song from Sautan ki Beti (1989). But that is where the similarity ends for today’s song seems to be from early fifties and by an entirely different lyricist, the well-known Anjum Jaipuri.

Mukesh and his NFS – 09

In the aftermath of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination, the team of composers Hunslal-Bhagatram, lyricist Rajendra Krishna and singer Mohd. Rafi created a marathon NFS overnight. The song was over 12 minutes long and was made into 4 parts probably to fit on the 78-rpm record disc. The song was an instant hit all over the country.

On the blog, this song was represented way back in 2012 and here is the link.

During the same period, Mukesh also recorded a song on the situation and circumstances.

Mukesh and his NFS – 08

Dreams are but dreams; what’s the reality in them.

This is in continuation of my post Mukesh and his Composers – 42 wherein Vipin Mehra was featured. I am unable to find more details on the composer than what I have mentioned in the post.

As such, I would like to cover one more NFS composed by Vipin Mehra so that the third and last song will remain to be covered.

Mukesh and his NFS – 07

“Baat adhoori rahe gayi uss din”

In today’s post, we cover yet another music director who never got any filmi songs sung by Mukesh but composed two melodious NFS.

The composer is Jag Phool Kaushik, better known as JP Kaushik. He is also mostly known as the composer of Amitabh Bachchan’s debut movie Saat Hindustani (1969).

Mukesh and his NFS – 06

I was in a bit of dilemma, whether to include this post under Composers or NFS series.

I settled for NFS because Mukesh strangely has no film songs for the composer but has 4 NFS. We are talking about composer Iqbal.

Well, it is easy to jump to conclusion that it is Iqbal Qureshi. However, Iqbal and Iqbal Qureshi are two entirely different composers working almost during the same period.
