Suhaani Raat dhal chuki, Na jaane tum kab aaoge..Jahaan kee rut badal chuki… Na jane tum kab aaoge.
From the Hindi film ‘Dulari’ made in 1949 & sung by Mohd. Rafi, has the ‘dard’ that hits you hard. The music by Naushad is unique & the lyrics by Skakeel Badayani make it the best.
They don’t make such songs anymore. Sudhir Moghe born in 1939, must have grown up listening to it. He also made another song equally memorable in his mother tongue. ‘Sakhi mand zhalya taarka…’
The beautiful night is gone, when will you come? The season has changed, when will you come….
Najaare apni mastiyaan lutaa lutaa ke so gaye, sitaare apni roshni dikhaa dikhaa ke so gaye…
The scenic beauty around & also the stars have gone to sleep.
Har ek shamma jal chuki, na jaane tum kab aaoge.. every light around has burnt out… when will you come…
tadap rahe hai hum yahaan tumhare intazaar mein… we are in pain, waiting for you.
khizaan ka rang aa chalaa hai mausam-e -bahaar mein… it’s autumn in the spring…
hawa bhee rukh badal chuki… naa jaane tum kab aa oge… the winds have changed their direction..
The night is over, the winds have changed & yet you have not reached!! With a cell phone in hand, are n’t the couples today deprived of the long waits???
Waiting makes the heart fonder.. I wonder, if it really works today???
