Day 106: Today's song is Dur Dur Tum Rahe Pukarte Hum Rahe by Lata Mangeshkar - Chalte Chalte (1976)

It is day 106, and today's song is Dur Dur Tum Rahe Pukarte Hum Rahe sung by Lata Mangeshkar from the 1976 movie Chalte Chalte, directed by Sunder Dar, and produced by Bhisham Kohli (aka Vishal Anand). Music composed by Bappi Lahiri, and lyrics written by Amit Khanna.

IMHO, easily the best music that Bappi Lahiri created in Bollywood Hindi movies scene. This I felt, was about the most original that Bappi da's composition was before he started copying pop and rock beats, grooves and melodies. But alas! This song is a copy of #Rain Drops Keep Falling on my head.

This song is not a well know song, but I love this song, because I know it from the Chalte Chalte tape that my father's collection used to have, and I used to play the tape often. I think I like all the songs from the movie and the music has soul.

The movie too is great, and very well made. I watched this movie a few days ago, and I liked it. I enjoyed the movie more as I also knew all the songs, and did I mention, good music from Bappi Da.

Any ways, here it is my rendition of the song that Lata ji sang so gracefully, and I know I can never emote that:
Chords: ?
Lyrics:
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat tum jao na
aakar baaho me sama kar aaho me
ab yu nazar ko churao na
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat tum jao na
aakar baaho me sama kar aaho me
ab yu nazar ko churao na
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat tum jao na

aaj raat ko husn ishk ko
phir bula raha hai, phir bula raha hai
aag pani me kis pyar se
phir mila raha hai, phir mila raha hai
phir se wo pyari bahar ke din
aaj tum le aao na
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat tum jao na
aakar baaho me sama kar aaho me
ab yu nazar ko churao na
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat tum jao na

chalte chalte kahi bich raah me
kho gaye the tum, kho gaye the tum
pyar me kho kar hamare hi ho kar
ho gaye the gum, ho gaye the gum
pyasi tumhari kabse hu main
ab tum tarasao na
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat tum jao na
aakar baaho me sama kar aaho me
ab yu nazar ko churao na
dur dur tum rahe pukarte hum rahe
aaj ki raat.



Thank you listening!
Peace
