When I saw the caption of this song, “tere pyaar mein dildaar” I thought I recognised this song. When I started to play it, it turned out to be a Lata Mangeshkar song, while I thought it might be a Shamshad Begum sing a composition by O. P. Nayyar from 50’s. It has a very old worldy feel to it. Actually it is from the Film “Mere Mehboob” and it is composed by Naushad. It goes without saying that it is written by Shakeel Badayuni. This is a kind of song, which keeps going on and on in the head long after you have heard it. I heard this song yesterday, after a very long time. It has three long stanzas in rapid speed. I made doubly sure that it was not posted. This should one of the last 2 songs from the film posted here, if earthmusic.net information is correct.

The fact that this “Amaanat”, starring Manoj Kumar and Sadhana was described as a 1977 release always intrigued me and many others since the songs of this movie were popular from much earlier. The timeless classic song, viz. Matlab nikal gaya hai to pahchaante nahin is from this movie and I recall hearing this song since my pre teen years i.e. right from early 1970s if not earlier.

When one is disturbed, there is nothing like a soothing bhajan to calm one’s nerves. The music and the singing of the bhajan has a calming influence on the mind, and the philosophical content of the lyrics makes us see things in perspective. Bhajans make us realise that living creatures (including humans) are mortals and we are mere puppets in the grand scheme of things. Things are not supposed to work out according to our wishes, so we should better reconcile ourselves with whatever is in store for us.
