This musical bandwagon continues to roll on unabated (touchwood !) and we continue to pass milestones at regular intervals.
Century of songs is the most basic and common kind of milestone for this song. In the earlier days of the blog, we just counted the number of songs posted in the day and every 100th song was a cause for celebration.

This is a story of the only son of a wealthy jagirdar ( feudal land owner) Choudhary Fazal Mohammed and Sardar Begum, one of his wives. The jagirdar had almost deserted Sardar Begum but he wanted his only son in his custody for which he was prepared to pay a handsome monetary compensation to his estranged wife. But she was not prepared to part with her son. The matter went to the court and the judge asked their 9 year old son to make a choice as to whether he would stay with his father or mother. He had to make a choice between a wealthy father and a poor mother who was facing difficulties in sustaining on a day to day basis. The young boy preferred his poor mother to his wealthy father. In preferring to stay with his poor mother, the young boy may have perhaps made a statement of intent to his father that ‘tu itnaa ameer nahin banaa abba ki tu apne bête ko khareed sake’ – a similar type of dialogue used in the film ‘Deewaar’ (1975). The boy was Abdul Hayee later known as Sahir Ludhianvi.

It’s been a while since my last post here. And I feel pretty bad about it. Somehow, in the last month (or more), I’ve just not been able to generate the required mental juice to be able to come up with anything worth putting on paper (or on electronic media). Had Shakespeare been around and had one look at me, he’d have promptly coined something like “Listlessness, thou hast what human spirit conquer’d, For Man knoweth not whence he cometh, and where he goeth”.

A song awaiting to be posted for some time. One of the drafts that I lost a few weeks back when my computer had crashed. And now, here it is. A remarkable haunting melody, from the same composer who conjured up the refrain for “Kahin Deep Jaley Kahin Dil”. Maybe a lesser known and less often heard creation, nonetheless a melody that, once heard, will surely continue to echo through the corridors of the mind. When I had posted the song “Koi Bechaara. . .”, Derubala ji had specifically responded with a comment picking out this song as a favorite.
