43) O MERE LAAL AJAA TUJHKO GALE LAGA LUUN

(O mere laal aa ja,)2 tujh ko gale lagaa luun
Come to me my child, let me hug you
Dil mein tujhe chhupaa luun
Let me hide you in my heart
O mere laal aa ja,
Come to me my child,

(O mere dil ke tukade o mamata ke pyaare)2
Oh my piece of heart, o my dear
Sun le ki teri maan hai zindaa tere sahaare
Listen I am alive because you are there for me
Maan se tu kyon kafaa hai aa main tujhe manaa luun
Why are you angry with your mother(me), let me appease you
Dil mein tujhe chhupaa luun
Let me hide you in my heart
O mere laal aa ja,
Come to me my baby,

(Tere lie huun paagal aakir ko maan huun teri)2
I am mad for you because I am your mother
Jag mein rahe tu zindaa ujade na god meri
May you live long in this world, let no one hurt you
Ek baar apane haathon dulhaa tujhe bana luun
Once I make you a groom by my own hands
Dil mein tujhe chhupaa luun
Let me hide you in my heart
O mere laal aa ja,
Come to me my child,

44) DUNIYA MEIN HAM AAYE HAIN TO JINA HI PADEGA

(Duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa)2
If life is like poison, one sometimes drink the poison

(Gir gir ke musibat mein sambhalate hi rahenge
In tough times you fall, but one must get up and keep going
Jal jaen magar aag pe chalate hi ragenge )2
Even though one is burning , one must keep walking on the fire
(Gam jisane diye)2 hain vahi Gam dur karega )2
The one who(GOD) has given sadness in life, will find a way to replace it with happiness.

(Duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa )2
But life is like poison, so one sometimes drink the poison

(Malik hai tere sath na Dar Gam se tu ai dil
Oh my heart, don't be afraid, because God is with you
Mehanat kare insaan to kya kam hai mushkil)2
If a person is hardworking , any thing is possible
(Jaisa jo kare)2 ga yahaan vaisa hi bharega)2
Ones own actions will beget a response.

Duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa
but life is like poison, so one sometimes drink the poison

Aurat hai vahi aurat jise duniyaa ki sharm hai
A woman that observes propriety is an examplary woman
Sansar mein bas aaj hi nari ka dharm hai
In this world, a woman keeps her integrety in adverse circumstances
Zinda hai jo izzat se vahi izzat se marega
The woman that lives with integrety and dies with the same is looked upon as being pure.

Duniyaa mein ham aaye hain to jiinaa hii padegaa
If one has come into this world, one must live
Jiivan hai agar zahar to piinaa hii padegaa
But life is like poison, so one sometimes drink the poison

45) CHAND PHIR NIKLA MAGAR TUM NA AAYE

(Chaand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
The moon came out yet again, but you never came
Jala phir mera dil karoon kya main haay)2
I can feel my heart burning(from the pain) ohh what should I do?
Chaand phir nikla
The moon came out yet again

(Yeh raat kehti hai woh din gaye tere
This night has come with the message that the good old days are gone
Yeh jaanta hai dil ke tum nahin mere)2
My heart finally knows that you do not belong to me
Khadi hoon main phir bhi nigahein bichaye
but still, I am standing here waiting for you, with my eyes on the road
Main kya karoon haay ke tum yaad aaye
Oh what should I do, I am remembering you yet again

Chaand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
The moon came out yet again, but you never came
Jala phir mera dil karoon kya main haay
I can feel my heart burning(from the pain)oh what should I do?
Chaand phir nikla
The moon came out yet again

(Sulagte seene se dhuaan sa uthtaa hain
Slow burning fire- slow but burns for the long time
From my burning heart the smoke is rising
Lo ab chale aao ke dam ghuthta hain)2
Please, I can' t stand it any more,come back now, I feel as if I am choking
Jala gayi tan ko baharon ke saaye
The shade of the spring(your love) burnt (oxymoron) my body
Main kya karoon haay ke tum yaad aaye
oh what should I do, your memory came back again

Chaand phir nikla magar tum na aaye
The moon came out yet again, but you never came
Jala phir mera dil karoon kya main haay
I can feel my heart burning(from the pain) ohh what should I do?
Chaand phir nikla
The moon came out yet again

Trans:Ranjana

The meaning of the song literally, Chand Phir Nikla: but needs to be affixed correctly.

The Moon has just come out. Yet, you have not come to see me. My heart is burning. What can I do now?

This night is telling me that those good old days are gone. My heart is telling me that you are no longer mine. Even then, I am still waiting with my eyes wide open (with the hope that someday you will still come back to meet me). I do not know what to do since thoughts of you come to my mind.

The smoke is coming out of fire burning inside my heart. I feel choked now, please come back to me. The shadow from spring has burnt my whole body. I do not know what to do since thoughts of you come to my mind.

How similar this song is to Rasik Balama...........it is said that they are from the same Raaga Shudh Kalyan which is a very popular Raga with reference to classical music:

Both songs were composed independently by two music directors. Since both songs were composed on Raga Shudh Kalyan, both have the same bandishi or pakkad. And this is the reason why both songs sound so similar. There was no question of one being a copy of the other. In those golden years of 1950s, one could not even think of plagiarism, which unfortunately is rampant in some of the present day Hindi film music. Both songs were brilliantly sung by the great Lata Mangeshkar. The immortal Lata Mangeshkar has stated that these two songs are two of the best songs of her career among her other favorite songs such as Aaja re pardesi (Film: Madhumati), Ayega aanewala (Film: Mahal) and Ye zindagi usiki hai (Film: Anarkali).

quote:
Yes both the songs, Rasik Balma and the song above are based on the same raga and both the compositions are beautiful. The beauty of the lyrics is evident in both the songs as well. The mood is the same but the expression of the mood is different.
Well, the song has to fit in the movie and needs to be in context. Well in the good old day of Bollywood, the theme was usually the same.
Both the songs are indeed beautifully sung. Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention.

46) AI MALIK TERE BANDE HAM AISE HOON HAMARE KADAM

Ai malik tere bande ham, Aise hoon hamare kadam
Oh Lord, we are Your people (devotees/believers), Let our deeds be such
Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Taki hanste huye nikale dam, Ai malik tere bande ham
So that the final breath can be taken with a smile, Oh Lord we are your people

Bada kamzor hai adami, Ab bhi lakhon hain ismen kamin
Mankind is extremely weak, Still having numerous deficiencies
Par tu jo khada, Hai dayalu bada
But You who stand by us, Always so compassionate and merciful
Teri kirpa se dharti thami
Sustaining the earth by Your grace
Diya tune hamen jab janam, Tu hi jhelega ham sabke gam
You are the Creator, Only You can help us endure our trials and tribulations
Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness,
Taki hanste huye nikale dam, Ai malik tere bande ham
So that the final breath can be taken with a smile, Oh Lord we are your people

(Jab zulmon ka ho samana,)2 Tab tu hi hamen thamana
When confronted with atrocities, Then may we have Your support
Wo buraii karen, Ham bhalai bharen
While others may commit evil deeds, May we adhere to the righteous
Nahin badale ki ho kamana
With no desire for vengeance
Badh uthe pyar ka har kadam, Aur mite bair ka ye bharam
May love bloom, And may suspicion and hostilities be eliminated

Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Taki hanste huye nikale dam, Ai malik tere bande ham
So that the final breath can be taken with a smile, Oh Lord we are your people

Ye andhera ghana chha raha, Tera insan ghabara raha
Pitch darkness is setting in, Mankind is in turmoil and agitation
Ho raha bekhabar, Kuchh na ata nazar
In a diminishing state of consciousness, Nothing is visible
Sukh ka suraj chhipa ja raha
The sun of comfort is disappearing
Hai teri roshani men wo dam, Jo amavas ko kar de poonam
The energy of Your light can brighten up a moonless night
Neki par chalen, Aur badi se talen
Following the path of righteousness, And shunning the evil
Taki hanste huye nikale dam, Ai malik tere bande ham
So that the final breath can be taken with a smile, Oh Lord we are your people

(Yun hasaraton ke daag, muhabbat mein dho liye
I washed the stains of my desire in the river of love
Khud dil se dil ki baat kahi, aur ro liye)2
And kept my feelings close to my heart and had a little cry

Yun hasaraton ke daag

(Ghar se chale the ham to, khushi ki talash mein)2
khushi ki talash mein
I started from home in search of happiness
Gam rah mein khade the vahi, sath ho liye
Found and picked up sadness on the way
Khud dil se dil ki baat kahi, aur ro liye
and kept my feelings close to my heart and had a little cry

Yun hasaraton ke daag

(Murajhaa chukaa hai phir bhii ye dil phuul hii to hai)2
haan phuul hii to hai
What if it is wilted (heart broken) my heart is still a flower
Ab aap kii Khushii ise kaanton mein toliye
Now it is up to you, whether you focus on the flower or the thorns that come with it.
Khud dil se dil kii baat kahii, aur ro liye
and kept my feelings close to my heart and had a little cry

Yun hasaraton ke daag

(Honthon ko si chuke to, zamane ne ye kaha)2
zamane ne ye kaha
When I sealed my lips, then the world started asking me
Ye chup si kyon lagi hai aji, kuchh to boliye
Why are you so quiet, come on, say something
khud dil se dil ki bat kahi, aur ro liye
and kept my feelings close to my heart and had a little cry

Lyrics: Hasrat Jaipuri


54) RASIK BALAMA HAAYE DIL KYO LAGAYAA

Rasik balamaa, haaye dil kyo lagaayaa
Oh my beloved, why did I give my heart to you.
Tose dil kyo lagaayaa, jaise rog lagaayaa
Why did I start loving you? your love is killing me painfully

Rasik balama.......

Jab yaad aaye tihaaree, soorat wo pyaaree pyaaree
When I think about you and remember that face so dear to me
Nehaa lagaa ke haaree, tadapoo main gam kee maaree
My eyes gets tired waiting for you, I am in pain with your sorrows

Rasik balama.........

Dhoondhe hain paagal nainaa, paaye naa yek pal chainaa
My eyes are going crazy looking for you, I am not able to relax even for a moment
Dasatee hain ujalee rainaa, kaa se kahoo main bah naa
The brightness of the day time stings me like a serpant's bite, With whom should I share my pain?

Rasik balama............

NB. Actually, when this song was being picturized on actress Nargis, Nargis declared that she would not require any Glycerin on her eyes to emote for this song. After hearing the song, Nargis knew that there was no need to use Glycerin during the picturization of the song, since the great Lata Mangeshkar had already used her deep emotions while singing the song, and that was enough to create natural tears. Glycerin is normally used in the film industry to create tears artificially in the eyes of the actor or actress for sad scenes.

From reliable sources, it is known that the above song Rasik Balma was composed by Jaikisan of the famous Shankar-Jaikisan duo. Generally, the opening (sthaayi) of the song is set within a medium octave, but this song opens on a very high note. During recording, Lataji had pointed this out to Jaikisanji saying that people are going to blame her for singing this song at such a high pitch and people might say that they cannot even hum it! But the brilliant Jaikisan told Lata Mangeshkar that the beauty of this song lied entirely on singing it at a high pitch, and finally the song was sung at a high pitch and the rest is history.

56) HAM PYAAR MEIN JALNEWALON KO

Ham Pyaar Mein Jalanevaalon Ko
We who burn in the fire of love
Chain Kahaan, Haay, Aaraam Kahaan
Do not have the luxury to be content
Ham Pyaar Mein Jalanevaalon Ko

(Priit Kii Andhiyaarii Manzil Mein, Chaaron Or Siyaahii)2
The destination of love is shrouded in darkness
Aadhii Raah Mein Hii Ruk Jaaye, (Is Manzil Kaa Raahii)2
Half way to the destination a person loses his/her way
Kaantoon Par Chalanevaalon Ko, Chain Kahaan, Haay, Aaraam Kahaan
people who walk on thorns, how can they be content.....

Ham Pyaar Mein Jalanevaalon Ko
We who burn in the fire of love

(Bahalaaye Jab Dil Naa Bahale, To Aise Bahalaayen)2
The only way to fool ones heart, when all attempts fail
Gam Hii To Hai Pyaar Kii Daulat, (Ye Kahakar Samajhaayen)2
is to say to one self that "sadness is the reward of love"
Apanaa Man Chhalanevaalon Ko, Chain Kahaan, Haay, Aaraam Kahaan
The ones who cheat their own heart, how can they be content..

Ham Pyaar Mein Jalanevaalon Ko
We who burn in the fire of love

58) GHADEE GHADEE MORA DIL DHADAKE

(Ghadee ghadee moraa dil dhadake, haay dhadake, kyon dhadake
My heart beats fast again and again, oh dear, why does the heart beat?
Aaj milan kee belaa mein, sar se chunariyaan kyon sarake)2
Now that we are going to meet, why does my veil keeps sliding from my head?

Ghadee ghadee moraa dil dhadake
My heart beats fast again and again,

Saaree umar ke badale mainne, maangee thee ye shaam
In place of an entire life, I had asked for this evening
Aaj yahee kho jaaoongee main, (unakee baahen thaam)2
Today I will lose my self in his arms
Pyaar milaa aanchal bhar ke dil dhadake kyon dhadake
Today I will get all the love I need/want, my heart beats, why does it?
Aaj milan kee belaa mein, sar se chunariyaan kyon sarake
Now that we are going to meet, why does my veil keeps sliding from my head?

Ghadee ghadee moraa dil dhadake
My heart beats fast again and again,

Aaj papeehe too chup rahanaa, main bhee hoon chupachaap
Today o bird you stay quiet, and so shall I
Dil kee baat samaz lenge, (saawareeyaan apane aap)
My beloved will understand the secrets of my heart all by himself
Dekh jaraa dheeraj dhar ke dil dhadake kyon dhadake
Wait and be a bit patient, why does my heart beat?
Aaj milan kee belaa mein, sar se chunariyaan kyon sarake
Now that we are going to meet, why does my veil keeps sliding from my head?

Ghadee ghadee moraa dil dhadake
My heart beats fast again and again,

Apalam Chapalam Chap Laayii Re Duniyaa Ko Chhod
Terii Galii Aayii Re Aayii Re Aayii Re)2
I have left the world and come to your door

(Badaa Majabuur Kiyaa, Haay! Tere Pyaar Ne
Your love has rendered me helpless
Maar Diyaa Maar Diyaa, Haay! Tere Pyaar Ne)2
The desire for your love is killing me
(Ab Pachhataaye Dil, Haay! Kit Jaaye Dil)2
Oh my heart what is the use of regrets, where will you go?
Kaahe Ko Ye Aag Lagaayii Re Lagaayii Re Lagaayii Re
Why did you start this fire (of love for him)

Apalam Chapalam Chap Laayii Re Duniyaa Ko Chhod
Terii Galii Aayii Re Aayii Re Aayii Re
I have left the world and come to your door

(Tedhaa Medhaa Khel Hai Ye Pyaar Jo Main Jaanatii
Had I known how twisted the road of love will be
Bhuul Ke Bhii Baat Kabhii Dil Kii Na Maanatii)2
I would have never listened to my heart
(Dil Beimaan Huaa, Dekho Jii Paraayaa Huaa)
My heart decieved me and I fell in love with you
Roye Roye Jaan Ganvaayii Re Ganvaayii Re Ganvaayii Re

(Dagaa Dene Vaalaa Dekho Kaisaa Dagaa De Gayaa
see, the deceitfull one , how he cheated me
Chhod Gayaa Yaad Aur Dil Meraa Le Gayaa)2
left me with his memories and he took my heart with him
(Main Ne Hii Qusuur Kiyaa, Aise Ko Jo Dil Diyaa)2
It was my fault that I gave my heart to such a person
Sudh Budh Sab Bisaraa_Ii Re
and lost my balance and good sense

Apalam Chapalam Chap Laayii Re Duniyaa Ko Chhod
Terii Galii Aayii Re Aayii Re Aayii Re
I have left the world and come to your door

60) ZINDAGI BHAR NAHEEN BHOOLEGEE WO BARSAAT KEE RAAT

Lata:
Zindagee bhar naheen bhoolegee wo barasaat kee raat
Never will I forget that rainy night for my whole life
Ek anajaan musaafir se mulaakaat kee raat
The night of meeting with a stranger

Zindagee bhar naheen bhoolegee

Haay jis raat mere dil ne dhadakanaa sikhaa
Yes, the night when my heart learned to beat
Shaokh jazabaat ne seene mein Bhadakanaa sikhaa
When the feelings of love started to make an impact on my heart
(Meree takadeer se nikalee wahee)2 sadamaat kee raat
My fate has made that beautiful night most traumatic of my life

Zindagee bhar naheen bhoolegee wo barasaat kee raat
Never will I forget that rainy night for my whole life
Zindagee bhar naheen bhoolegee

Rafi:
(Ruthhane waalee)2 meree baat se maayoos naaho
Displeased one do not get fraustrated by my conversations
Bahake bahake se khayaalaat se maayoos naaho
Do not be upset with the provoking thoughts
(Khatm hogee naa kabhee tere mere,)2 saath kee raat
Never will we forget this night of our association

Zindagee bhar naheen bhoolegee wo barasaat kee raat
Never will I forget that rainy night for my whole life
Ek anajaan muhaseena se mulaakaat kee raat
The night of meeting with a stranger

Zindagee bhar naheen bhoolegee
