Day 275: Today's song is Chhod Babul Ka Ghar by Shamshad Begum - Babul (1950)

It is day 275 and today' song is Chhod Babul Ka Ghar sung by Shamshad Begum from the 1950 movie Babul directed by S.U. Sunny, and produced by Naushad. Music composed by Naushad, and lyrics written by Shakeel Badayuni.

Raag: Pahadi

Taal: Kaherava

I don't know much about the movie at all. I have not watched it, and reading the plot and review, I am not sure I am too intrigued to watch it.

The singer Shamshad Begum was a pioneer. She was before any of the popular female singers that mainstream people mostly know of. She did not have a long career. She retired early and lived a secluded family life. She was not like the one or two very famous Bollywood singers from those times who played politics to make sure the music directors did not give chance to other singers but them. Hats off to Shamshad Begum, a true human being.

Anyways, here it is, my rendition of the song:

Chords: ?

Lyrics:

Chhod babul kaa ghar, mohe pee ke nagar

Aaj jana pada, o aaj jana pada

Chhod babul kaa ghar, mohe pi ke nagar

Aaj jana pada

Sang sakhiyo ke bachapan bitati thi main,

Ha bitati thi main

Byah gudiyo kaa hans hans rachati thi main,

Ha rachati thi main

Sab se munh mod kar, kya batau kidhar

Dil lagana pada, o aaj jana pada

Chhod babul kaa ghar, mohe pi ke nagar

Aaj jana pada

Yad maike ki dil se bhulaye chali

Ha bhulaye chali

Preet saajan ki man mein basaye chali,

Ha basaye chali

Yad kar ke yeh ghar, royi aankhe magar

Muskurana pada, o aaj jana pada

Chhod babul kaa ghar, mohe pi ke nagar

Aaj jana pada

Pehan ulfat ka gehna dulhan mein bani, 

Ha dulhan mein bani

Dulha aaya piya ka sakhi mein chali,

Ha sakhi mein chali

Ye tha jutha nagar, isliye chodkar 

Mohe jana pada, o aaj jana pada

Chhod babul kaa ghar, mohe pi ke nagar

Aaj jana pada

Chhod babul kaa ghar, mohe pi ke nagar

Aaj jana pada.

kahee pe nigahe, kahee pe nishana

jeene do zalim banao naa divana

koyee naa jaane irade hain kidhar key

mar naa dena tir nazar kaa, kisee key jigar me

nazuk yeh dil hai bachana o bachana

kahee pe nigahe, kahee pe nishana

touba jee touba nigaho kaa machalana

dekh bhal key aye dilwalo, pahalu badlana

kafir ada kee ada hain mastana

kahee pe nigahe, kahee pe nishana

zakhmee hain tere jaye toh kaha jaye

tere teer key mare huye dete hain sadaye

kar do jee ghayal tumhara hain zamana

kahee pe nigahe, kahee pe nishana

aaya shikaree o panchhee too sambhal ja

dek jal hain julfo ka too chupake se nikal ja

udd ja o panchhee shikaree hain divana

kahee pe nigahe, kahee pe nishana

kahee pe nigahe, kahee pe nishana

Day 88: Today's song is Boojh Mera Kya Naam Re by Shamshad Begum - C.I.D (1956)

It is day 88, and today's song is not such a well known song, titled: Boojh Mera Kya Naam Re sung by Shamshad Begum from the 1956 movie C.I.D, directed by Raj Khosla and produced by Guru Dutt. Music composed by O.P. Nayyar and lyrics written by Majrooh Sultanpuri.

I like the song and the movie. This movie has some really great songs, and I have watched this movie a couple times and I don't mind watching it again.

Also, something I never mentioned before, but I know I sing songs sung my female singers, and I do not change the gender of the song lyrics and keep the authenticity of the song. Just FYI. (Off topic: Humans seem like are going towards a genderless society anyways, LOL!)

Anyways, here it is, my rendition of the song:

Chords: ?

Lyrics:

Boojh mera kya naam re 

Nadi kinaare gaanv re

Pipal jhume more anganaa

Thandi thandi chhaanv re

Log kahe mai baanvari

Mere ulajhe ulajhe baal

Log kahe mai baanvari

Mere ulajhe ulajhe baal

Mera kala kala til hai

Mere gore gore gaal

Mera kala kala til hai

Mere gore gore gaal

Mai chali jis gali

Jhume sara gaanv re

Boojh mera kya naam re

Nadi kinaare gaanv re

Pipal jhume more anganaa

Thandi thandi chhaanv re

Aaj sambhal ke dekhna

Babuji humri aur

Aaj sambhal ke dekhna

Babuji humri aur

Kahi dil se lipat na jaye

Lambi julafo ki dor

Kahi dil se lipat na jaye

Lambi julafo ki dor

Mai chali man chali

Sab ka man lalachaaun re

Boojh mera kya naam re

Nadi kinaare gaanv re

Pipal jhume more anganaa

Thandi thandi chhaanv re

Dil vaalo ke bich me 

Meri akhiyaan hai badanaam

Hun ek paheli phir bhi

Koi Boojhe mera naam

Mai chali manchali

Sab ka man lalachaaun re

Boojh mera kya naam re

Nadi kinaare gaanv re

Pipal jhume more anganaa

Thandi thandi chhaanv re

Boojh mera kya naam re

Nadi kinaare gaanv re

Pipal jhume more anganaa

Thandi thandi chhaanv re.
