Day 55: Today's song is Ye Jeevan Hai by Kishore Kumar - Piya Ka Ghar (1972)

It is day 55, and today's song is Ye Jeevan Hai sung by Kishore Kumar from the 1972 movie Piya Ka Ghar, directed by Basu Chatterjee. Music composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal and lyrics written by Anand Bakshi. A really insightful song, a great song. This song is one of my favorites.

Here it is, my rendition of the song Ye Jivan Hai:
Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/
Lyrics:
Ye jivan hai is jivan kaa
Yahi hai, yahi hai, yahi hai rang rup
Ye jivan hai is jivan kaa
Yahi hai, yahi hai, yahi hai rang rup
Thode gam hai, thodi khushiyaan
Thode gam hai, thodi khushiyaan
Yahi hai, yahi hai, yahi hai chhaanv dhup
Ye jivan hai

Ye naa socho isame apani haar hai ki jit hai
Ye naa socho isame apani haar hai ki jit hai
Use apanaa lo jo bhi jivan ki rit hai
Ye zid chhodo, yun naa todo
Har pal ek darpan hai
Ye jivan hai is jivan kaa
Yahi hai, yahi hai, yahi hai rang rup
Ye jivan hai

Dhan se naa duniyaa se ghar se na dvaar se
Dhan se naa duniyaa se ghar se na dvaar se
Saanso ki dor badhi hai pritam ke pyaar se
Duniyaa chhute, par naa tute
Ye kaisaa badhan hai
Ye jivan hai is jivan kaa
Yahi hai, yahi hai, yahi hai rag rup
Thode gam hai  thodi khushiyan
Yahi hai, yahi hai, yahi hai chhaanv dhup
Ye jivan hai.

Day 54: Today's song is Zindagi Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana by Bhupinder Singh - Dooriyan (1976)

It is day 54, and today's song is not a very popularly known song from the 1976 movie Dooriyan, directed by Bhim Sain. 
I don't think the movie was popular. I don't remember the movie, but I remember it played on TV one time, when we were kids, and of course, us children were very quickly bored and left to play outside or something. The movie is a adult theme movie showing the drama of a married couple's struggles to balance their personal and professional life which causes them to separate and affects their child. I think I will watch this movie tonight.

Day 54 of 300, it is coming time to take a couple few days break. Singing and recording everyday could be a burnout. But if I give up it is going to be bad for my Self self. So I feel it would be a good idea to take small regular breaks after every milestone. Currently the first first time of 50 songs out of 300 is reached. Also, I am traveling to Southern California for a week the day after tomorrow. So that will be a good break to recharge. I am thinking I should start doing live streaming too, acoustic set. We shall see how things comes along in time.

Too much blabber today...

Today's song is Zindagi Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana sung by Bhupinder Singh and Anuradha Paudwal from the 1976 movie Dooriyan. Music composed by Jaidev and lyrics written by Sudarshan Faakir.

So, here it is, my rendition (I think the mix is not very good, could have been better):
Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/
Lyrics:
Zindagi Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana Aana Zindagi
Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana Aana Zindagi
Zindagi O Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana Aana
Mere Ghar Aana
Zindagi Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana Aana Zindagi

Mere Ghar Ka Seedha Sa Itna Pataa Hai
Ye Ghar Jo Hai Chaaron Taraf Se Khula Hai
Na Dastak Zaruri, Na Aavaz Dena
Mere Ghar Ka Darvaaza Koi Nahin Hai
Hain Deevaren Gum Aur Chhat Bhi Nahin Hai
Badhi Dhoop Hai Dost
Kadhi Dhoop Hai Dost
Tere Aanchal Ka Saaya Churake Jeena Hai Jeena
Jeena Zindagi, Zindagi
O Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana
Aana Zindagi Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana

Mere Ghar Ka Seedha Sa Itna Pataa Hai
Mere Ghar Ke Aage Mohabbat Likha Hai
Na Dastak Zaruri, Na Aavaz Dena
Maein Saanson Ki Raftaar Se Jaan Lungi
Havaaon Ki Khushboo Se Pehchaan Lungi
Tera Phool Hoon Dost
Teri Bhool Hoon Dost
Tere Haathon Mein Chehra Chhupa Ke Jeena Hai Jeena
Jeena Zindagi, Zindagi
O Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana
Aana Zindagi Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana

Magar ab jo aanaa to dire se aanaa
Zamaane ki shahazaadi soi hui hai
Ye pariyo ke sapano mein khoi hui hai
Bahut khub hai ye, teraa rup hai ye
Tere aanchal mein tere daaman me
Tere aankho mein teri palko me
Tere kadamo me isako bithaake
Jinaa hai, jinaa hai
Jinaa zindagi, zindagi
O zindagi mere ghar aanaa
Aanaa zindagi zindagi
Mere ghar aanaa.

Day 53: Today's song is Kabhi Kabhie Mere Dil Mein by Mukesh - Kabhi Kabhie (1976)

It is day 53, and today's song is Kabhi Kabhie Mere Dil Mein sung by Mukesh from the 1976 movie Kabhi Kabhie, directed by Yash Chopra. Music composed by Khayyam, and lyrics by Sahir Ludhianvi

This used to be a super popular song when I was a kid. Radio used to play this song quite regularly, and then Chitrahaar too used to play this song often. This song is certainly one of the most memorable songs of all times in the Bollywood music industry. It's a great song! 

Here it is my rendition of the song:
Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/
Lyrics:
Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai
Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai
Ki jaise tujhko banaya gaya hai mere liye
Ki jaise tujhko banaya gaya hai mere liye
Tu abse pehle sitaaron mein bas rahi thi kahin
Tu abse pehle sitaaron mein bas rahi thi kahin
Tujhe zameen pe bulaya gaya hai mere liye
Tujhe zameen pe bulaya gaya hai mere liye

Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai
Ki ye badan ye nigaahein meri amaanat hain
Ki ye badan ye nigaahein meri amaanat hain
Ye gesuon ki ghani chhaon hain meri khatir
Ye honth aur ye baahein meri amaanat hain
Ye honth aur ye baahein meri amaanat hain

Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai
Ki jaise bajti hain shehnaaiyaan si raahon mein
Ki jaise bajti hain shehnaaiyaan si raahon mein
Suhaag raat hain ghoonghat utha raha hoon main
Suhaag raat hain ghoonghat utha raha hoon main
Simat rahi hai tu sharma ke apni baahon mein
Simat rahi hai tu sharma ke apni baahon mein

Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai
Ki jaise tu mujhe chaahegi umr bhar yoohin
Uthegi meri taraf pyaar ki nazar yoohin
Main jaanta hoon ki tu geir hai magar yoohin
Main jaanta hoon ki tu geir hai magar yoohin
Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai
Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayaal aata hai.

Day 50 of 300: Today's song is Dil Ka Bhawar Kare Pukar by Mohammed Rafi - Tere Ghar Ke Samne (1963)

It is day 50 of 300, a sixth of the way, and a long way to go.
50 songs in 50 days straight is a good achievement and milestone I think. This is my first time doing something like this. I remember 51 days ago watching the movie Julie and Julia, inspired by which, I started this thing: one Bollywood song a day for 300 days. 
50 days is a good milestone to take a short couple days break and then come back for the next 50 songs after the short break. I am also thinking I do not want to burn myself out from singing one bollywood classic song a day, every day. Perhaps, taking a short break is good for the soul. Like I say, we shall see.

Today's song is Dil Ka Bhawar Kare Pukar sung by Mohammed Rafi from the 1963 movie Tere Ghar Ke Samne, directed by Vijay Anand. Lyrics written by Hasrat Jaipuri, and music composed by my favorite S.D. Burman.

So it is my rendition:
Chords: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/
Lyrics:
Dil ka bhanvar kare pukaar
Pyaar ka raag suno
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu
Dil ka bhanvar kare pukaar
Pyaar ka raag suno
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu

Phool tum gulaab ka
Kya javaab aapaka
Jo ada vo bahaar hai
Aaj dil ki bekali aa gai zabaan par
Baat ye hai tumase pyaar hai
Dil tumhin ko diya re
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu
Dil ka bhanvar kare pukaar
Pyaar ka raag suno
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu

Chaahe tum mitaana
Par na tum giraana
Aansu ki tarah nigaah se
Pyaar ki unchaai
Ishq ki gaharaai
Poochh lo hamaari aah se
Aasamaan chhu liya re
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu
Dil ka bhanvar kare pukaar
Pyaar ka raag suno
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu

Is hasin utaar pe
Ham na baithe haar ke
Saaya ban ke saath ham chale
Aaj mere sang to
Goonje dil ki aarazoo
Tujhase meri aankh jab mile
Jaane kya kar diya re
Pyaar ka raag suno uu uu uu
Dil ka bhanvar kare pukaar
Pyaar ka raag suno
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu

Aap ka ye aanchal
Pyaar ka ye baadal
Phir hamen zamiin pe le chala
Ab to haath thaam lo
Ik nazar ka jaam do
Is naye safar ka vastaa
Tum mere saaqiya re
Pyaar kaa raag suno re uu uu uu
Dil ka bhanvar kare pukaar
Pyaar ka raag suno
Pyaar ka raag suno re uu uu uu
Uu uu uu uu uu uu.


Thank you for listening!

Aankho me kisi ki wafa

Laakho hai yaha dilwaale

Mahafil mahafil jaa dekha

Har saaz pe gaa kar dekha
Mahafil mahafil jaa dekha
Har dil me samaa kar dekha
Har saaz pe gaa kar dekha
Dil ko kahi chain naa milaa
Are dil ko kahi chain naa milaa
Mai to duniyaa me
Pyaare akelaa hi rahaa

Laakho hai yaha dilwaale

Is dil ko kahaan le jaae
Kuchh aap agar faramaae
To aap ke ham ho jaae
Is dil ko kahaan le jaae
Kuchh aap agar faramaae
To aap ke ham ho jaae
Kah do hame hasake zara
Kah do hame hasake zara
Aji jo kuchh bhi dil ne
Tumhaare hai kahaa

Laakho hai yaha dilwaale
Aur pyaar nahi milta
Aankho me kisi ki wafa
Kaa iqaraar nahi milta

Laakho hai yaha dilwaale
Aur pyaar nahi milta
Aankho me kisi ki wafa
Kaa iqaraar nahi milta.

Unke honton ki yeh surkhiyaan
Unke chehre ki yeh narmiyaan
Unki zulfon ki yeh badliyaan
Unki aankhon ke roshan diye
Unke honton ki yeh surkhiyaan

Sab unke hain jalwe

Saanson mein aankhon mein
Khwaabon mein yaadon mein
Aur is dil mein unko chhupaake rakhoon

Pyaar lekin nahin hoga kam
Main kahin bhi rahoon ae sanam
Mujhko hai zindagi ki kasam
Faaslein aate jaate rahe
Pyaar lekin nahin hoga kam

Jinhe chaahoon jinhe poojoon
Unhe dekhoon unhe chhoo loon
Zara baatein to kar loon
Zara baahon mein bhar loon
Main is chaand se maathe ko choom loon
To chaloon to chaloon hm hm hm hm hm
To chaloon to chaloon to chaloon

Havaa kaa git madhyam hai
Samay ki chaal bhi kam hai

Nilaa aasman so gaya

Meri baahon mein
Sharmake lajaake aise tum aaye

Chaand dhire dhire aa jaaye
Ye tanahaai ye main aur tum

Zamin bhi ho gayi gumasum

Day 43: Today's song is Faza Bhi Hai Jawaan Jawaan by Salma Agha - Nikaah (1982)

Today's song is Faza Bhi Hai Jawaan Jawaan from the 1982 movie Nikaah sung by Salma Agha. The movie was directed by B. R. Chopra. Music composed by Ravi and lyrics written by Hasan Kamaal.

Just a humble attempt at singing this song. I would prefer to sing this song in half a step higher key.

Also, I got to test drive my new studio setup. So this video was recorded live using the new setup. You can see there is an actual mic and not a phone headset. I am liking the new setup. Just beginning to get used to it, and still dialing in a good setup. 

Anyways, So here it is my rendition of the song Faza Bhi Hai Jawaan Jawaan:
Lyrics:
Fazaa Bhee Hain Jawaan Jawaan
Hawaa Bhee Hain Rawaan Rawaan
Sunaa Rahaa Hain Ye Samaa
Sunee Sunee See Daasataan
Fazaa Bhee Hain Jawaan Jawaan
Pukaarate Hain Door Se
Wo Kafile Bahaar Ke
Bikhar Gaye Hain Rang Se
Kisee Ke Intajaar Ke
Lahar Lahar Ke Honthhapar
Wafaa Kee Hain Kahaniyaan
Sunaa Rahaa Hain Ye Samaa
Sunee Sunee See Daasataan
Fazza Bhee Hain Jawaan Jawaan
Bujhee Magar Bujhee Naheen
Na Jaane Kaisee Pyaas Hai
Qaraar Dil Se Aaj Bhee
Na Door Hai Na Paas Hai
Ye Khel Dhoonp Chhaanw Kaa
Ye Kurbate Ye Duriyaan
Sunaa Rahaa Hain Ye Samaa
Sunee Sunee See Daasataan
Fazaa Bhee Hain Jawaan Jawaan
Har ek Pal Ko Dhoondhthaa
Har Yek Pal Chalaa Gayaa
Har Yek Pal Firaak Kaa
Har Yek Pal Bisaal Kaa
Har Yek Pal Guzar Gayaa
Banaa Ke Dil Pe Yeh Nishaan
Sunaa Rahaa Hain Ye Samaa
Sunee Sunee See Daasataan
Fazaa Bhee Hain Jawaan Jawaan
Hawaa Bhee Hain Rawaan Rawaan
Sunaa Rahaa Hain Yeh Samaa
Sunee Sunee See Daasataan
Fazaa Bhee Hai Jawaan Jawaan

Day 42: Today's song is Dekh Tere Sansar Ki Haalat by Kavi Pradeep - Nastik (1954)

It is day 42, and today's song is not a much known song. I mostly know it from hearing once in a while on radio or TV in childhood, especially on patriotic days. I think the song's mention of Mahatma Gandhi gave it a political flair to it. The song to me mostly has good consciousness questions to ask one self. Good song!

Dekh Tere Sansar Ki Haalat is from the 1954 movie Nastik, directed by I. S. Johar. The song is written and sung by Kavi Pradeep. Music composed by C. Ramchandra.

Day 42, Beginning to lose steam, must go on...water...water.... motivation....motivation.....why....why..... what is going on.... 
But truth is everything changes always, hence Insaan (humans) also has changed. It's inevitable. Such is it. Change is constant. 
Anyways....
Here is my rendition:
Lyrics
Dekh tere sansar ki haalat kya ho gayi bhagwaan
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan
Sooraj na badlaa chaand na badlaa naa badlaa re aasmaan
Kitnaa badal gayaa insaan kitnaa badal gayaa insaan

Aayaa samay badaa bedhangaa
Aaj aadmi banaa lafangaa
Kahin pe jhagdaa kahin pe dangaa
Naach rahaa nar ho kar nangaa
Chhal aur kapat ke haathon apnaa
Bech rahaa imaan,
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan
Dekh tere sansar ki haalat kya ho gayi bhagwaan
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan

Raam ke bhakt rahim ke bande
Rachte aaj fareb ke phande
Raam ke bhakt rahim ke bande
Rachte aaj fareb ke phande
Kitne ye makkar ye andhe
Dekh liye inke bhi dhandhe
Inhin ki kaali kartooton se
Huya ye mulk mashaan,
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan
Dekh tere sansar ki haalat kya ho gayi bhagwaan
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan

Jo ham aapas mein na jhagadte
Bane huye kyun khel bigadte
Kaahe laakhon ghar ye ujadte
Kyun ye bachche maan se bichhadte
Phoot-phoot kar kyun rote
Pyaare baapu ke praan,
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan
Dekh tere sansar ki haalat kya ho gayi bhagwaan
Kitna badal gaya insaan kitna badal gaya insaan

Thank you for listening

Day 40 of 300: Today's song is Maine Tere Liye Hi Saath Rang Ke Sapne by Mukesh - Anand (1971)

It is day 40. 40 days and 40 nights. I am still going on with my recording of one song per day, and posting one song per day, but I must say the motivation is getting low, and bills paying work stuff is seeking more of my time and attention, or so it seems. FYI, I do record the whole video in one take. If I make a mistake, I stop and start all over from the top. But some days are better than others, so pardon my not too good performance today.

Today's song is Maine Tere Liye by Mukesh from the 1971 movie Anand, directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. Music composed by Salil Chaudhury, and lyrics written by my favorite writer, Gulzar.

So here it is, my rendition:
Lyrics:
Maine tere liye hi saat rang ke sapne chune,
Sapne, surile sapne,
Kuch hansee ke, kuch gum ke,
Teri ankhon ke saye churaye rasili yaadon ne,
Maine tere liye hi saat rang ke…

Choti baaten,
Choti choti baaton ki hai yaadein bani,
Bhoole nahin bithi hui ek choti ghadi,
Janam janam se, aankhen bichaaye, tere liye in rahon mein,
Maine tere liye …

Bhole bhale,
Bhole bhale dil ko behlate rahe,
Tanhai mein tere khayalon ko sajate rahe,
Kabhi kabhi tho, aavaaz dekar, mujhko jagaya khabon ne,
Maine tere liye …

Roothi raatein,
Roothi hui raaton ko jagaya kabhi,
Tere liye bithi subah ko bulaya kabhi,
Tere bina bhi, tere liye hi, diye jalaye raaton mein,
Maine tere liye …

Day 38: Today's song is Dil Deewana Bin Sajna Ke by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam - Maine Pyar Kiya (1989)

It is day 38, and today's song is Dil Deewana Bin Sajna Ke. This is the most latest of all the songs I have sung and posted this far on my YouTube channel. I mostly know only very old songs. I must say I do not know this song very well, and only remember hearing not many times on TV. In 1989 I was not listening to most any Hindi or Bollywood songs. It was time I was exploring rock n roll.
I will say I have done a fair job of singing this song. Could be better, but I am posting a song a day and somedays they come out good, and other days they don't. It is one such day today.

Dil Deewana Bin Sajna Ke by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam from the 1989 movie Maine Pyar Kiya, directed by Sooraj Barjatya. Music composed by Raam Laxman, and lyrics by Asad Bhopali. It was quite a hit back then, this song.

Anyways, here is my rendition, for what it's worth:
Dil deewana bin sajna ke Maane na
Dil deewana bin sajna ke Maane na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Dhak dhak bole it ut dole Din raina
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na

Dard judaai kya hota hai Tum jaano main jaanoon
Ho ho ho ho ho
Dard judaai kya hota hai Tum jaano main jaanoon
Pyaar bulaaye duniya roke Kiska kehna maanoon
Tumse mile bin dil ko Kuchh bhi soojhe na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na

Oh ho ho ho ho ho
Oh ho ho ho ho ho

Banke lahoo nas nas mein mohabbat Daude aur pukaare
Ho ho ho ho ho
Banke lahoo nas nas mein mohabbat Daude aur pukaare
Pyaar mein sab kuchh haar diya Par himmat kaise haarein
Keh do duniya dil ka rasta roke na 
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Dil deewana bin sajna ke Maane na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na
Ye pagla hai samjhaane se Samjhe na.

Day 36 of 300: Today's song is Chand Jaise Mukhde Pe by Yesudas - Sawan Ko Aane Do (1979)

It is day 36. Every time I see a number combination 3, 6 and 9, I remember Nikola Tesla. He talked and knew plenty and profound about the combination of number 3, 6, and 9. He would have paved the way to land of milk and honey, but the little brother had other plans, and hence we are where we are today after all these years since Tesla, and I am most certainly not talking about Elon's Tesla. Nope!

Today's song is Chand Jaise Mukhde Pe, sung by Yesudas, from the 1979 movie Sawan Ko Aane Do, directed by Kanak Mishra. Music for this song is composed by Raj Kamal, and lyrics written by Purushottam Pankaj.

So here it is, my rendition, for what it's worth:
Chords: Know of a site with correct chords? Please post link in the comments.
Lyrics:
Sab tithiyan ka chandrama jo dekha chaho aaj
Dheere dheere ghoonghta sarkao sartaaj ho

Chand jaise mukhde pe bindiya sitara
Chand jaise mukhde pe bindiya sitara
Nahi bhoolega meri jaan yeh sitara, woh sitara
Maana teri nazron mein
Main hoon ek awara, ho awara
Nahi bhoolega meri jaan yeh awara, woh awara
Chand jaise mukhde pe bindiya sitara ho

Sagar sagar moti milte, pabrat pabrat paras
Tan man aise bheeje jaise barse mahuye ka ras
Arre kastoori ko khojta phirta
Hai yeh banjara, ho banjara
Nahi bhoolega meri jaan yeh banjara woh banjara
Chand jaise mukhde pe bindiya sitara ho

Kajrare chanchal nainon mein, suraj chaand ka dera 
Roop ke is paavan mandir mein hansa kare basera
Pyase geeton ki Ganga ka
Tu hi hai kinara, ho kinara
Nahi bhoolega meri jaan yeh kinara, woh kinara

Chand jaise mukhde pe bindiya sitara
Nahi bhoolega meri jaan yeh sitara, woh sitara
Maana teri nazron mein
Main hoon ek awara, ho awara
Nahi bhoolega meri jaan yeh awara, woh awara
Chand jaise mukhde pe bindiya sitara ho

Day 35 of 300: Today's song is Bole Re Papihara by Vani Jairam - Guddi (1971)

It is day 35 of 300, and today's song is not a very popularly known song. The song is titled Bole Re Papihara. Sung by Vani Jairam, the song is from the 1971 movie Guddi, directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee (I think I have watched just about all of his movies). Music directed by Vasant Desai, and lyrics written by my all time favorite, Gulzar, the great!
This song has a very Carnatic music flair to it. I do not know what raga this song is based on, but I also do not know if it is Vani Jairam's awesome Carnatic style singing that gives me a feel of that in this song.

Anyways, here is my rendition of the song:

Lyrics:
Bole re papihara, papihara
Bole re papihara, papihara
Nit ghan barse, nit man pyasa
Nit man pyasa, nit man tarse
Bole re papihara
Bole re papihara, papihara
Bole re papihara

Palkon par ik boond sajaaye x2
Baithi hoon sawan le jaaye x2
Jaaye pee ke des mein barse
Jaaye pee ke des mein barse
Nit man pyasa, nit man tarse

Bole re papihara
Bole re papihara, papihara
Bole re papihara

Sawan jo sandesa laaye x2
Meri aankh pe moti paaye x2
Jaan mile baabul ke ghar se
Jaan mile baabul ke ghar se
Nit man pyasa, nit man tarse

Bole re papihara
Bole re papihara, papihara
Bole re papihara

Thank you for listening

Day 34: Today's song is Ek Ladki Bheegi Bhaagi Si by Kishore Kumar - Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi (1958)

It is day 34. Today turned out to be a busy day, but in good ways. The gear for the new studio setup is beginning to come in and I have started putting them together as they come. So that's a good thing. On the other hand, I am still waiting to see if my 10 days of recording work on the crash hard drive of my iMac can be salvaged. Fingers crossed.

Day 34 song is Ek Ladki Bheegi Bhaagi Si sung by Kishore Kumar from the 1958 movie Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, directed by Satyen Bose. Lyrics written by Majrooh Sultanpuri, and music composed by my all time Bollywood favorite music composer, S.D. Burman, the great!

So here it is, my rendition:

Day 33 of 300: Man is a traveler; Aadmi Musafir Hai by Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi - Apnapan(1977)

It is day 33, and today's song is Aadmi Musafir Hai, meaning Man is a traveler.
Man is a traveler.
He comes and he goes.
On his path going and coming,
he leaves memories behind.

Aadmi Musafir Hai is actually a duet, sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi. The song is from the 1977 movie Apnapan, directed by J. Om Prakash. Music composed by, and lyrics written by, the famous trio of Bollywood, and they have several hits and memorable songs that they created, Laxmikant-Pyarelal and Anand Bakshi. This trio was one of the top songwriters in Bollywood back in the day, during my childhood days. That was sometime ago.

Anyways, here is my rendition of the song:
Chordstabs.ultimate-guitar.com
Lyrics:
Aadmi musafir hai, aata hai jaata hai
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai
Aadmi musafir hai, aata hai jaata hai
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai
Aadmi musafir hai x 2

Jhonka hawa ka paani ka rela
Jhonka hawa ka paani ka rela
Mele mein reh jaaye jo akela
Mele mein reh jaaye jo akela
Phir woh akela hi reh jaata hai

Aadmi musafir hai, aata hai jaata hai
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai

Kab chhodta hai yeh rog jee ko
Kab chhodta hai yeh rog jee ko
Dil bhool jaata hai jab kisi ko
Dil bhool jaata hai jab kisi ko Woh bhool kar bhi yaad aata hai

Aadmi musafir hai x 2
Aata hai jaata hai x 2
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai
Aadmi musafir hai x 2

Kya sath laaye, kya tod aaye
Kya sath laaye, kya tod aaye
Raste mein hum kya kya chhod aaye
Raste mein hum kya kya chhod aaye
Manzil pe jaake yaad aata hai

Aadmi musafir hai, aata hai jaata hai
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai

Jab dolti hai jeevan ki naiya
Jab dolti hai jeevan ki naiya
Koyi to ban jaata hai khiwaiya
Koyi to ban jaata hai khiwaiya
Koyi kinare pe hi doob jaata hai

Aadmi musafir hai, aata hai jaata hai
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai
Aadmi musafir hai, aata hai jaata hai
Aate jaate raste mein yaadein chhod jaata hai
Yaadein chhod jaata hai
Yaadein chhod jaata hai

Day 25: Today's song is Gunche Lage Hain Kehne by Shailendra Singh - Taraana (1979)

It is day 25, and today's song is Gunche Lage Hain Kehne by Shailendra Singh. The song may not be a very popular song, but it was a hit back then, I think the radio played it a lot, or we had a cassette tape at home which is where I heard this song. One of those is likely the reason I know this song. The song is from the 1979 movie Taraana, directed by Deepak Bahry. Music composed by Raam-Laxman, and lyrics written by Ravindra Rawal.

This is my first Shailendra Singh song in this series of 300 songs, one per day. It is day 25 and 275 more to go.

So here it is:

Lyrics:
Goonche lage hain kahane
Foolon se bhee sunaa hain taraanaa pyaar kaa
Kahataa hain dil aa ke mil o meree zindagee
Tanahaa naa beet jaaye
Din bahaar kaa

Abhee abhee ek hawaa kaa zonkaa
Yaad teree le aayaa
Yaad ke saajon par dil ne
Ek pareet kaa geet sunaayaa
Abhee abhee ek hawaa kaa zonkaa
Yaad teree le aayaa
Yaad ke saajon par dil ne
Ek pareet kaa geet sunaayaa
O meree dilarubaa sun le jaraa
Kahataa hain dil tuj se ye kyaa afasaanaa

Goonche lage hain kahane
Foolon se bhee sunaa hain taraanaa pyaar kaa
Kahataa hain dil  aa ke mil o meree zindagee
Tanahaa naa beet jaaye
Din bahaar kaa

Dilabar mere dil mein kyaa hain
Too jo ise sun letee
Mere sang jeewan ke
Kitane sapane too boon letee
Dilabar mere dil mein kyaa hain
Too jo ise sun letee
Mere sang jeewan ke
Kitane sapane too boon letee
O meree dilarubaa too ban shamaa
Aaur dekh jaa jalataa huaa parawaanaa

Goonche lage hain kahane
Foolon se bhee sunaa hain taraanaa pyaar kaa
Kahataa hain dil  aa ke mil o meree zindagee
Tanahaa naa beet jaaye
Din bahaar kaa.

Today is day 21 of my one Bollywood classic song per day for 300 days, and today's song is the oldest Bollywood song that I know of, Jab Dil Hi Toot Gaya sung by K.L. Saigal. A very old song!

This song's music is composed by Naushad, and lyrics written by Majrooh Sultanpuri.

Jab Dil Hi Toot Gaya
Jab Dil Hi Toot Gaya

Ulafat Ka Diyaa Hamane
Is Dil Mein Jalaya Tha
Ulafat Ka Diyaa Hamane
Is Dil Mein Jalaya Tha
Ummid Ke Phoolo Se
Is Ghar Ko Sajaayaa Tha
Ummid Ke Phoolo Se
Is Ghar Ko Sajaayaa Tha
Ik Bhedi Loot Gayaa
Ik Bhedi Loot Gayaa
Hum Ji Ke Kya Karege
Hum Ji Ke Kya Karege
Jab Dil Hi Toot Gaya

Maalum Na Tha Itani,
Mushkil Hai Meri Raahe
Mushkil Hai Meri Raahe
Maalum Na Tha Itani,
Mushkil Hai Meri Raahe
Mushkil Hai Meri Raahe
Aramaa Ke Bahe Aansoo
Hasarat Ki Bhari Aahe
Aramaa Ke Bahe Aansoo
Hasarat Ki Bhari Aahe
Har Sathi Chhut Gaya
Har Sathi Chhut Gaya
Hum Ji Ke Kya Karege
Hum Ji Ke Kya Karege
Jab Dil Hi Toot Gaya.

Day 20 of 300: Today's song is Tere Mere Sapne by Mohammed Rafi - Guide (1965)

It is day 20 of 300, and today's song is Tere Mere Sapne Ab Ek Rang Hai by Mohammed Rafi from the 1965 hit movie Guide, directed by Vijay Anand, and based on R. K. Narayan's 1958 novel The Guide. I saw this movie a few times in the last couple years, including the English version, which of course has no songs, but extremely very well made. 

The Song Tere Mere Sapne Ab Ek Rang Hai was picturized with Dev Anand as the protagonist. Music direction is by my all time Bollywood favorite, S.D. Burman. Yes, he was before my time growing up in India, but I must say his music has been my favorite of all Bollywood music composers. The lyrics of this song was written by the great Shailendra. Beautiful love song. Your dreams and my dreams are now in sync, colored the same color.

So here is my rendition of the song:
Chordshttp://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/
Lyrics:
tere mere sapne abb ek rang hain
ho jaha bhi le jaye raahe, ham sang hain
ho tere mere sapne abb ek rang hain
ho jaha bhi le jaye raahe, ham sang hain

mere tere dil ka, tay tha ek din milna
jaise bahar aane par, tay hain phul ka khilna
mere tere dil ka, tay tha ek din milna
jaise bahar aane par, tay hain phul ka khilna
o mere jivan sathi
tere mere sapne abb ek rang hain
ho jaha bhi le jaye raahe, ham sang hain

tere dukh abb mere, mere sukh abb tere
tere yeh do naina, chand aur suraj mere
tere dukh abb mere, mere sukh abb tere
tere yeh do naina, chand aur suraj mere
o mere jivan sathi
tere mere sapne abb ek rang hain
ho jaha bhi le jaye raahe, ham sang hain

lakh mana le duniya, saath na yeh chhutega
aa ke mere hatho me, haath na yeh chhutega
lakh mana le duniya, saath na yeh chhutega
aa ke mere hatho me, haath na yeh chhutega
o mere jivan sathi
tere mere sapne abb ek rang hain
ho jaha bhi le jaye raahe, ham sang hain
ho tere mere sapne abb ek rang hain
