Now this song is really something. The scenario that is presented in these verses, is one that would be close to the hearts of every married couple with the caveat that they live in a joint family.

The song is about the moments of romance that a married couple can steal, maybe in the night, when all other members are blissfully asleep. The husband reaches out to his wife, and the wife complains about all the hard work she has to manage at home during the day. The husband placates her and tries to convince her that the household chores are no big deal and for him, and that for him, she still is as beautiful as the chirpy, naughty mynah bird.

Initially it was the Marathi stage/natya sangeet and Parsee theatre which influenced HFM. In the East, it was Rabindra sangeet and Nazrul Geete thate made the basis of film songs. In the Lahore centre it was the Punjabi style after Khazanchi-1941.
