This song is from the 60's film Kabuliwaala - based on the story of the same name by Rabindranath Tagore about the bond of friendship that springs between Rahmun the street vendor from Kabul and Mini, a little girl from Calcutta. It is also the story of a father's love for a daughter who is no longer daddy's little girl.

Aye mere pyaare vatan, aye mere bichhade chaman
Tujh pe dil qurabaan
Tu hi merii aarazu, Tu hi merii aabaru, Tu hi merii jaan
Tere daaman se jo aae un havaaon ko salaam
chuum lun main us zubaan ko jisape aae teraa naam
Sabase pyaarii subah teri, Sabase ra.ngii.n terii shaam
Tujh pe dil qurabaan ...
Maa kaa dil banake kabhii siine se lag jaataa hai tuu
aur kabhii nanhii.n sii beTii ban ke yaad aataa hai tuu
Jitanaa yaad aataa hai mujhako, Utanaa ta.Dapaataa hai tuu
Tujh pe dil qurabaan
Chhod kar teri zamin ko duur aa pahunche hain ham
phir bhii hai ye hii tamannaa tere charro.n kii qasam
Hum jahaan paidaa hue , us jagah pe hi nikale dam
Tujh pe dil qurabaan

For all the parents on the Blog!!!!!
(tujhe suraj kahu ya chanda, tujhe deep kahu ya tara
meraa nam karega roshan, jag me meraa raj dulara) - (2)
mai kab se taras raha tha, mere aangan me koyee khele
nanhee see hansee ke badle, meree saree duniya le le
tere sang jhul raha hai, meree baho me jag sara
meraa nam karega roshan, jag me meraa raj dulara
aaj ungli thamke teree, tujhe mai chalna sikh lau
kal hath pakadna meraa, jab mai buddha ho jau
tu mila toh maine paya, jina ka naya sahara
meraa nam karega roshan, jag me meraa raj dulara

Anand & Amer Prem
These two films need no introduction to the readers of this blog.......(Spoiler Alert!! Don't read if you haven't seen them yet!!!)
I have never really WATCHED these two movies. I remember seeing them with amma/nanna in bits and pieces and of course saw/heard the songs multiple times.
Today, for the first time, I really watched both the films in their entirity and I completely understand how a generation of women can swoon over Rajesh Khanna.....I feel the same way a little bit......
And what can one say about those two movies that has not been said before.
The happy, vivacious Rajesh Khanna and the dour and disillusioned Amithabh.....the last scene where Anand goes "Main marna nahin chahta" and Bhaskar hearing "Babu Moshay, Zindagi aur Maut Ki Khel Mein Hum Sab Katputhli Hain" and the eerie laughter....I am still a little emotional!!!!!
As for Amar Prem, the quartet of R.D.Burman, Kishore Kumar, Anand Bakshi and Rajesh Khanna that gave Chingari Koi and Kuch To Log Kahenge......the haunting melodies, the moonlit nights and the relationship between a woman cheated by circumstances and a man cheated by life, the tender bond between the courtesan and the innocent child...the family that has no legitimacy, yet, is one in all it's meaning..why is it that most of such stories are from Bengali authors????? "Pushpa, I hate tears". The characters do not shed tons of melodramatic tears, it's emotional without crying, it's romantic without duets.
It's a good day today as I got reacquinted with two of the greatest Hindi movies of all time......
