When the name of Raj Kapoor’s Sangam is mentioned, Mukesh Chand Mathur stands

as a glowing light in terms of songs like Dost dost na raha, pyar pyar na raha, har dil jo

pyar karega; Bool Radha Bol Sangam;

Rafi did one song, and this was a hit

(22) YEH MERA PREM PATR…………………….SANGAM
http://www.channeldosti.com/oldies/Muhammad%20Rafi/Yeh%…a%20Prem%20Patra.mp3

Year :1964
Singer :Mohd Rafi
Lyricist :Hasrat Jaipuri
Musician(s) :Shankar Jaikishan

meherbaan likhu, haseena likhu, ya dilruba likhu,
(Shall I write kind, or beautiful or a stealer of hearts?)
hairaan hoon ke aap ko iss khat mein kya likhu,
(I am puzzled by what I should write to you in this letter.)

yeh mera prem patra padhkar ke tum naaraaz na hona,
After reading my love letter to you, don’t get angry…..
ke tum meri zindagi ho ke tum meri bandagi ho.
that you are my life, you are someone I am bound to.

yeh mera prem patra padhkar ke tum naaraaz na hona,
After reading my love letter to you, don’t get angry…..
ke tum meri zindagi ho ke tum meri bandagi ho.
that you are my life, you are someone I am bound to.

(tujhe main chaand kehta tha magar uss mein bhi daag hai)2
I would have called you the moon, but it also had a scar.
(tujhe suraj main kehta tha magar uss mein bhi aag hai)
I would have called you the sun, but it also had fire in it.
(tujhe itna hi kehta hoon ke mujhko (tumse pyaar hai)3
I am just going to say this to you; that I am in love with you.

yeh mera prem patra padhkar ke tum naaraaz na hona,
After reading my love letter to you, don’t get angry…..
ke tum meri zindagi ho ke tum meri bandagi ho.
that you are my life, you are someone I am bound to.

(tujhe ganga main samjhunga tujhe jamuna main samjhunga)
I will consider you to be the purity of Ganga and Jumna
(tu dil ke paas hai itni tujhe apna main samjhunga)
You are so close to my heart that I will consider you mine.
(agar mar jaau ruh bhatkegi (tere intezaar mein)3
If I were to die, then my soul would roam around in your anticipation.

yeh mera prem patra padhkar ke tum naaraaz na hona,
After reading my love letter to you, don’t get angry…..
ke tum meri zindagi ho ke tum meri bandagi ho.
that you are my life, you are someone I am bound to.

~Khushi~:

This song is soo lovely, very soothing!Thank You once again!

Abdoolji, I had a request. I have been searching for this song for a very very long time now but cannot find it anywhere. I have it on cassette but I miss listening to it on the PC as i cant find it anywhere. I was wondering if you could help me find it on the net where I could listen to it? Its a song from:

‘Hum hai Lajawaab’ (old film) and the song is :
‘Duniya Badal Gayi Hai, Ya Hum Badal Gaye Hai, Lagtaa Hai Dil Ke Saare Armaa Nikal Gaye Hai..’

Its an absolutely beautiful song, i really really love it! Im not sure who the male or the female singers(perhpas Ashaji) are but I do know that the music is by Panchamda (R.D. Burman). If you’ve come across it anywhere or able to find it, please do let me know, I would be grateful. Thank you!

Khushiji is this the one: It is from the movie Babul: singer Shamshad Begum, Talat Mehmood:

http://www.channeldosti.com/oldies/Very%20Old%20Indian%…0Gaye%20-%20Babul.rm

I do not think so, as this one is further down memory lane

[imported_abdool]

Will try to find, and if I do will download, “Hum hain lajawaab” is a new one with SRK,

I think the voice of his son is dubbed in this film; ofcourse I know you are referring to “old”

Hum hain Lajawaab, I never heard of this one, but then again there are a lot of oldies that I

have never heard of, will keep an eye out.

Singer :Mohd Rafi
Lyricist: :Shakeel Badayuni
Musician :Naushad

Mere mehboob tujhe meri mohabbt ki kasam(repeat)
My beloved, I beseech you in the name of my love for you
Phir mujhe nargisi ankhon ka sahara dede
Once again, give me the support of these Iris like eyes
Mera khoya hua rangeen nazara dede
Bring back to me the beautiful outlook that was lost
Mere mehboob tujhe
My beloved ..

Ae mere khwab ki taabir meri jaan-e-ghazal
You who are the realization of my dreams, the soul of my poetry
Zindagi meri tujhe yaad kiye jaati hai
My existence (life) keeps remembering you
Raat din mujhko satata hai tasavur tera
Day and night I am tormented by the thought of you
Dil ki dhadkan tujhe awaaz diye jaati hai
My heartbeat keeps calling out to you
Aa mujhe apni sadaon ka sahara dede
Come strengthen me with your voice calling out to me
Mera khoya hua rangeen nazzara dede
Bring back to me the beautiful outlook that was lost
Mere mehboob tujhe
My beloved ..

Bhool sakti nahin ankhen woh suhana manzar
My eyes can not forget that lovely sight
Jab tera husn mere ishq se takraya tha
When your loveliness met with my adoration
Aur phir raha mein bikhre the hazaron naghme
Around us swelled thousands of melodies
Meri woh naghme teri awaaz ko de aaya tha
I had bestowed those melodies of mine to your voice
Saz-e-dil ko unhi geeton ka sahara dede
Play those songs on the lyre of my heart
Mera khoya hua rangeen nazara dede
Bring back to me the beautiful outlook that was lost
Mere mehboob tujhe
My beloved ..

Yaad hai mujhko meri umr ki pehli woh gadi
I remember the very first moment of my life
Teri ankhon se koi jaam piya tha maine
When I drank deep of thine eyes
Mere rug rug mein koi barqse lehrai thi
Lightening struck through every part of my being
Jab tere marmari haathon ko chua tha maine
When I hesitantly touched your fair hands
Aa mujhe phir unhi haathon ka sahara dede
Give me once again the support of those fair hands
Mera khoya hua rangeen nazara dede
Bring back to me the beautiful outlook that was lost
Mere mehboob tujhe
My beloved ..

Maine ik baar teri ek jhalak dekhi hai
Once I saw you for a brief moment
Meri hasrat hai ke mein phir tera deedar karoon
I long to see you once again in front of my eyes
Tere saaye ko samajh kar mein haseen Taj Mahal
Your shadow I will treat as the Beautiful Taj
Chandni raat me nazaronse tujhe pyar karoon
And in moonlit night I will love you with my eyes
Apni mehki *** zulfon ka sahara dede
Give me the gift of your fragrant tresses
Mera khoya hua rangeen nazara dede
Bring back to me the beautiful outl
