Fabulous Foot Tappers – 3

A name that deserves to be known better, and honored better.  The repertoire of his songs makes one wonder – he should be named in the top ranking lyricists.  But that is not the case.  He had an intrinsic verve of the verse, he had a passion for nationalism and he had trained in classical music under the renowned Pt Ravi Shankar – a combination that evoked such inspired poetry

tere daaman se jo aayen
un hawaaon ko salaam
choom loon main us zubaan ko
jis pe aaye tera naam

ae mere pyaare watan
ae mere bichhde chaman
tujh pe dil qurbaan

MISSING GEMS FROM THE GOLDEN 50s….Song No. 10
——————————————————-

Today’s song is from a 1957 film-AGRA ROAD.

When I first thought of this series, I had planned to discuss one song from each year of the 50’s decade and wind up after 10 songs. But when I actually started the spade work,I came across so many songs from so many films that I had to curtail songs from the long list. Still, the number stood at 20 songs. A series with more than 10 to 15 songs really becomes monotonous for me to write the articles. My articles contain information about at least 2 to 3 persons,matters or happenings and it requires research,references and collection of data etc. Since I insist on writing only that which I can defend,should a controversy arise,i can not stretch my imagination alone to write the articles.

The best thing about Holi songs is that in most cases, the message of colors is immediately apparent in the coloring of the lyrics. The songs get created in the spirit of Holi itself. It is a social and group celebrations, and the songs of this festival are sung by multiple singers, and performed by a multitude of players on the screen. And as we sit down to color code the lyrics, the resulting view is as colorful as the festival itself.
