It is day 290 of 300, and today's song is Raha Gardishon Mein Hardam sung by Mohammed Rafi from the 1966 movie Do Badan directed by Raj Khosla. Music composed by Ravi, and lyrics written by Shakeel Badayuni.

Raag: Darbari Kanada

Taal: Kaherava

So I made it to 290 songs, and 10 more to go.

This is a sad song perfectly fits the mood of my day today. I had to drive out into the world last two days, see and meet people. It made me sad to see the state of the world. Along with other difficult situations of my life, I feel this is a perfect song for the day.

Lyrics:

rahaa gardisho me haradam mere ishq kaa sitaaraa

kabhi dagamagaayi kashti, kabhi kho gayaa kinaaraa

koi dil kaa khel dekhe, ki muhabbaton ki baazi

vo qadam qadam pe jite, mai qadam qadam pe haaraa

ye hamaari badnaseebi jo nahi to aur kyaa hai

ki usi ke ho gaye ham, jo na ho sakaa hamaaraa

pade jab gamo ke paale, rahe mitake mitanevaale

jise maut ne na puchhaa, use zindagi ne maaraa

Day 49: Today's song is O Mere Majhi Mere Sajan Hain Us Paar by S.D. Burman - Bandini (1963)

It is day 49 and today's song is O Re Mahji Mere Saajan Hain Us Paar composed and sung by S.D. Burman, and lyrics written by Shailendra. The song is from the 1963 movie Bandini, directed by Bimal Roy. I don't think I have seen this movie. I will watch it sometime.

S.D. Burman is my most favorite Bollywood music director of all times. Only recently, since the pandemic, I have learned that a lot of the classic Bollywood songs I know, were composed by S.D. Burman. I remember hearing these songs at home growing up, on the radio, or the music player.

Thanks to the pandemic, I have been learning to sing hindi songs from those songs that I remember from my childhood. That is when I realized, the most bliss is when singing songs composed by S.D. Burman. Beautifully awesome composer. I love S.D. Burman sahab.

o re majhi o re majhi o o mere majhi

o mere majhi, abaki baar, le chal paar, le chal paar

ho man ki kitab se tu, mera naam hi mita dena

gun to na tha koi bhi, avagun mere bhula dena

ho man ki kitab se tu, mera naam hi mita dena

gun to na tha koi bhi, avagun mere bhula dena

mujhako teri bida ka

mujhako teri bida ka mar ke bhi rahata itazar

mere saajan hai us paar, mai man maar, hun is paar

o mere majhi, abaki baar, le chal paar, le chal paar

mere saajan hai us paar

mat khel jal jaaegi, kahati hai aag mere man ki

mat khel mat khel 

mat khel jal jaaegi, kahati hai aag mere man ki

mai badini piyaa ki chir sagini hun saajan ki

mera khichati hai aanchal

mera khichati hai aanchal man mit teri har pukar

mere sajan hai us paar

o re majhi o re majhi o o mere majhi

Lyrics:

Mai shayar badnaam

Mai shayar badnaam ho o

Mai chala mai chala

Mehfil se naakam ho o

Mai chala mai chala

Mai shayar badnaam

Mere ghar se tumko

Kuchh saamaan milega

Divaane shaayar kaa

Ek divaan milega

Aur ek cheez milegi

Tuta khaali jam ho o

Mai chala mai chala

Mai shayar badnaam

Sholo pe chalna tha

Kaanto pe sona tha

Aur abhi ji bhar ke

Kismat pe rona tha

Jaane aise kitne

Baaki chhod ke kaam

Ho o mai chala mai chala

Mai shayar badnaam

Rasta rok rahi hai

Thodi jaan hai baaki

Jaane tute dil me kya

Armaan hai baaki

Jaane bhi de ae dil

Sabko meraa salaam

Ho o mai chala mai chala

Mai shaayar badnaam

Ho o mai chala mai chala

Mehfil se naakaam ho

O mai chala mai chala.

Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com

Lyrics:

o mere dil ke chain

o mere dil ke chain

chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye

o mere dil ke chain

chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye

apna hi saya dekh ke tum

jane jahan sharma gaye

abhi to ye pahli manzil hai

tum toh abhi se ghabra gaye

mera kya hoga socho to zara

haye aisi na aahe bhara kijiye

o mere dil ke chain

chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye

aap ka arma, aap ka naam

mera tarana aur nahin

in jhukti palkon ke siva

dil ka thikana aur nahin

jachta hi nahi aankho mein koi

dil tumko hi chahe toh kya kijiye

o mere dil ke chain

o mere dil ke chain

chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye

yun to akelaa hi aqsar

gir ke sambhal sakataa hun main

tum jo pakad lo haath mera

duniya badal saktaa hun main

maangaa hai tumhen duniya ke liye

ab kud hi sanam faisalaa kijiye

o mere dil ke chain

chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye

o mere dil ke chain

o mere.
