Lyrics:
o mere shaahe khuba, o meri jaanejanana
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota
o mere shaahe khuba, o meri jaanejanana
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota

kab khayalo ki dhup dhalti hai
har kadam par shama si jalti hai
mera saya jidhar bhi jata hai
teri tasveer saath chalti hai
o mere shaahe khuba, o meri jaanejanana
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota

tum ho sehra me tum gulista me
tum ho zarro me tum biyaba me
maine tum ko kaha kaha dekha
chupke rehte ho tum rag-e-jaan me
o mere shaahe khuba, o meri jaanejanana
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota

meri aankho ki justaju tum ho
iltaja tum ho aarzoo tum ho
main kisi aur ko to kya jaanu
meri ulfat ki aabru tum ho
o mere shaahe khuba, o meri jaanejanana
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota
tum mere paas hote ho, koi dusara nahi hota


Thank you for listening!

Day 82: Today's song is Babuji Dheere Chalna by Geeta Dutt - Aar Paar (1954)

It is day 82, and it is time to take a break from singing my renditions of Bollywood classic old hindi film songs, a day a song. Sometimes the renditions are good, many other times they are average, and sometimes not so good. But this is a great learning exercise for me. I am beginning to see my limitations as a musician and a singer. Some times the mood of the song and my emotions are aligned, and sometimes not. But it is a learning exercise and I am glad I chose to do this 1 song a day for 300 days. I am also glad I am actually doing it and have gotten to 82 songs so far. Yes, still 218 more songs to go to reach 300, and I only hope to learn a lot more from singing these evergreen timeless Bollywood Hindi classic songs.

Today's song is Babuji Dheere Chalna sung by Geeta Dutt from the 1954 movie Aar Paar, directed and produced by Guru Dutt. Music composed by O.P. Nayyar and lyrics written by Majrooh Sultanpuri.

Here is a solo rendition with an acoustic guitar (posted on April 20, 2023):

Here is another rendition of the song, and after this post I shall take a short break of few days, change the environment a bit, get out a bit before I get back to singing song #83 and keep singing my way towards 300 songs Here is song with backing tracks (posted on April 27, 2021):

Lyrics:
Baabuji dhire chalnaa
Pyaar me zaraa sambhalanaa
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalnaa
Pyaar me zaraa sambhalanaa
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalnaa

Kyun ho khoye huye sar jhukaaye
Jaise jaate ho sab kuchh lutaaye
Ye to baabuji pahalaa kadam hai
Nazar aate hai apane paraaye
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalanaa
Pyaar me zaraa sambhalanaa
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalanaa

Ye muhabbat hai o bholebhaale
Kar na dil ko gamo ke havaale
Kaam ulafat kaa naazuk bahut hai
Aake hotho pe tutege pyaale
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalanaa
Pyaar me zaraa sambhalanaa
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalanaa

Ho gayi hai kisi se jo anaban
Thaam le dusaraa koi daaman
Zidagaani ki raahe ajab hai
Ho akelaa hai to laakho hai dushman
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalanaa
Pyaar me zaraa sambhalanaa
Haan bade dhokhe hai
Bade dhokhe hai is raah me
Baabuji dhire chalanaa.

Lyrics:
mere mitwa, mere meet re
aaja tujhko pukaare mere geet re
mere geet re o mere mitwa

naam na jaanu tera des na jaanu
kaise main bheju, sandes na jaanu
yeh phoolon ki yeh jhulon ki
rut na jaaye beet re
aaja tujhko pukaare mere geet...

tarsegi kab tak pyaasi najariya
barsegi kab mere aangan badariya
todh ke aaja chhod h ke aaja
duniya ki har reet re

aaja tujhko pukaare mere geet re
mere geet re o mere mitwa

Lyrics:
basti basti parvat parvat, gaate jaye banjara

lekar dil ka ektara

pal do pal ka sath hamara

aaj ruke to, kal karni hai chalne ki taiyari
basti basti parvat parvat, gaate jaye banjara

kadam kadam par honi baithi, apna jaal bichhaye
kadam kadam par honi baithi, apna jaal bichhaye

basti basti parvat parvat, gaate jaye banjara
lekar dil ka ektara
basti basti parvat parvat, gaate jaye banjara
lekar dil ka ektara

dhan daulat ke pichhe kyu hai, ye duniya diwani
yaha ki daulat yaha rahegi, sath nahi ye jani
basti basti parvat parvat, gaate jaye banjara
lekar dil ka ektara
basti basti parvat parvat, gaate jaye banjara
lekar dil ka ektara

Day 29 of 300: Today's song is Tadbeer Se Bigdi Huyi Taqdeer by Geeta Dutt - Baazi (1951)

It is day 29 and today's song is Tadbeer Se Bigdi Huyi Taqdeer, a very old song sung by Geeta Dutt, from the 1951 movie Baazi, directed by Guru Dutt. Music composed by the great, and my all time favorite, S.D. Burman. Lyrics written by Sahir Ludhianvi.

It's been a busy busy day, juggling work, meetings, and researching, planning and purchasing for new studio and live streaming home studio setup. Since my old audio device and my iMac, that I used for about a decade, stopped working back to back in last 2 days, I am forced to design a new setup, and make purchases, and set it up when it is all here. For now, oh well, all will be well. Once set up, which may take couple weeks, it will be a completely new, flexible and a modern setup.

Here is a solo rendition with acoustic guitar, me playing live at 615ChuTNey, Nashville, TN (posted on April 07, 2023):

Anyways, here is today's song, my rendition with backing tracks (posted on Feb 25, 2021):

Lyrics:
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Tadbeer se bigdi hui
Taqdeer banale taqdeer banale
Apne pe bharosa hai
Toh yeh daav lagale
Lagale daav lagale
Tadbeer se bigdi hui
Taqdeer banale taqdeer banale
Apne pe bharosa hai
Toh yeh daav lagale
Lagale daav lagale

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Darrta hai jamane ki
Nigahon se bhala kyun
Nigahon se bhala kyun
Darrta hai jamane ki
Nigahon se bhala kyun
Nigahon se bhala kyun
Insaf tere sath hai
Iljam utha le iljam utha le
Apne pe bharosa hai toh
Yeh daav lagale
Lagale daav lagale

Hey hey hey hey
Kya khak woh jina hai jo
Apne hi liye ho
Apne hi liye ho
Kya khak woh jina hai jo
Apne hi liye ho
Apne hi liye ho
Khud mitke kisi aur ko
Mitne se bacha le
Mitne se bacha le
Apne pe bharosa hai
Toh yeh daav lagale
Lagale daav lagale

Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey tute huye patwar hain
Kashti ke toh ham kya
Haari hui baaho ko hi
Patwar bana le
Patwar bana le
Apne pe bharosa hai
Toh yeh daav lagale
Lagale daav lagale
Tadbeer se bigdi hui
Taqdeer banale
Taqdeer banale
Apne pe bharosa hai
Toh yeh daav lagale
Lagale danv lagale.
