Day 118: Today's song is Chup Hai Dharti Chup Hai Chand Sitare by Hemant Kumar - House No. 44 (1955)

It is day 118 and today's song is Chup Hai Dharti Chup Hai Chand Sitare sung by Hemant Kumar from the 1955 movie House No. 44, directed by M. K. Burman and produced by Dev Anand. Music by S. D. Burman, with lyrics by Sahir Ludhianvi.

I think this song may not be such a popular or well known song from the retro classic Bollywood Hindi music. I know it from the Hemant Kumar songs cassette tape from my father's music collection.

I have always loved the smoothness of Hemant Kumar's voice, but I am beginning to appreciate more as I am listening to these old songs again. Retro classic!

Lyrics:

chup hain dharatee, chup hain chanad sitare

mere dil kee dhadkan tuj ko pukare

khoye khoye se yeh mast najare

thhahare thhahare se yeh rang ke dhare

dhundh rahe hain tuj ko sath hamare

chup hain dharatee, chup hain chanad sitare

mere dil kee dhadkan tuj ko pukare

kone kone mastee fail rahee hai

bahe banakar hastee fail rahee hai

tuj been doobe dil ko kaun ubhare

chup hain dharatee, chup hain chanad sitare

mere dil kee dhadkan tuj ko pukare

nikhara nikhara sa hai, chand kaa joban

bikhara bikhara sa hain nur kaa daman

aaja mere tanahaee ke sahare

chup hain dharatee, chup hain chanad sitare

mere dil kee dhadkan tuj ko pukare
