Day 246: Today's song is Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan by Mukesh - Mera Naam Joker (1970)

It is day 246 and today's song is a evergreen hit song that any one who knows bollywood songs will know.
Day 246, and today's song is Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan sung by Mukesh from the 1970 classic movie Mera Naam Joker directed and produced by the all time legend Raj Kapoor #rajkapoor. Music composed by Shankar Jaikishan, and lyrics written by Shaily Shailendra.

This movie became a cult classic and is regarded as one of Raj Kapoor's best films and among the best Bollywood films of the 20th century. I myself have watched it many many times. Very long movie, so always took more than one sitting to go through all of it.

The movie won several awards, including best director award. Shankar Jaikishan won the Filmfare Best Music Director Award.

A sad song, yet profoundly true. I love Raj Kapoor. He was and is the best. No one like him.

Here it is, my rendition of the song:

Lyrics:
jeena yaha marna yaha, iske siva jana kaha
jeena yaha marna yaha, iske siva jana kaha
ji chahe jab humko aawaz do, hum hai wahi hum the jaha
apne yahi dono jahan, iske siva jana kaha

ye mera geet jivan sangeet kal bhi koi dohrayega
ye mera geet jivan sangeet kal bhi koi dohrayega
jag ko hasane bahrupiya rup badal phir aayega
swarg yahi narak yaha, iske siva jaana kaha
ji chahe jab humko aawaz do, hum hai wahi hum the jaha
apne yahi dono jahan, iske siva jana kaha

kal khel me hum ho na ho, gardish me tare rahenge sada
kal khel me hum ho na ho, gardish me tare rahenge sada
bhuloge tum, bhulenge vo par hum tumhare rahenge sada
rahenge yahi apne nishan, iske siva jana kaha
ji chahe jab humko aawaz do, hum hai wahi hum the jaha
apne yahi dono jahan, iske siva jana kaha
jeena yaha marna yaha, iske siva jana kaha



Thank you for listening!
Peace
