Music Director: Ravi
Cast: Mala Sinha, Sunil Dutt


chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono

na mein tumse koi ummid rakhubaar dilnavaji ki
na tum meri taraf dekhobaar galat andaaz nazron se
na mere dil ki dhadkan ladkhadayebaar meri baaton mein
na zahir ho tumhari kashmkash kabaar raz nazron se
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono

tumhe bhi koi uljhanbaar rokti hai peshkadmi se
mujhe bhi log kehte hainbaar ki ye jalve paraye hai
mere humrah bhi rusvaiya haibaar mere maazi ki
mere humrah bhi rusvaiya haibaar mere maazi ki
tumhare sath bhi guzri hui rato ke saye hai
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono

taarruf rog ho jaebaar to usko bhulna behtar
talluk bojh ban jaye to usko todna achchha
woh afsana jise anjaam tak lana na ho mumkin
woh afsana jise anjam tak lana na ho mumkin
use ek khubsurat mod dekar chhodna achchha
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono
chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono

tera har rang humne dekha hai

ter har dhang humne dekha hai

paas aakar bhi tujhko dekha hai

door jaakar bhi tujhko dekha hai

tujhko har tarah aajmaaya hai

paake khoya hai khoke paaya hai

ankhdiyon ka bayaan samajhte hai

dhadkanon ki jabaan samajhte hain

choodiyon ki khanak se waakif hain

jhaanjhro ki jahanak se wakif hain

naazon andaaz jaante hain hum

naazon andaaz jaante hain hain

tera har raaz jaante hain

phir aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai ,parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

dil lubhaane se faayda kya hai

munh chupaane se faayda kya hai

ulajhti ulajhti latein sanwaar ke aa

husn ko aur bhi nikhaar ke aa

narm gaalon me bijliyaan lekar

shokh aankhon me titliyaan lekar

aa bhi jaa ab ada se lehraake

ek dulhan ki tarah sharmaake

tu nahin hai to raat sooni hai

ishq ki kaynaat sooni hai

oye marne waalon ki zindagi tu hai

marne waalon ki zindagi tu hai

is andhere ki roshni tu hai

phir aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aa tera intezaar kab se hai

har nazar bekaraar kab se hai

shama rah rah ke jhilmilaati hai

saans taaron ki doobi jaati hai

tu agar meharbaan ho jaaye

ye zameen aasmaan ho jaaye

ab to aaja ki raat jaati hai

ek aashiq ki baat jaati hai

khair ho poori zindagani ki

dil bhi den to meharbaani ki

tujh pe sau jaan se fida hain hum

tujh pe sau jaan se fida hain hum

ek mudaat ke aashna hain hum

phir aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai

aaj kyun humse parda hai, parda hai ji

chura le na tum ko ye mausam suhaana

khuli waadiyon mein akeli na jaana 

lubhaata hai mujh ko ye mausam suhaana

main jaaungi tum mere pichhe na aana

lipat jaayega koi bebaak jhonka

jawaani ki rau men na aanchal udaana

mere vaaste tum pareshaan na hona

mujhe khub aata hai daaman bachaana

mujhe khub aata hai daaman bachaana

main jaaungi tum mere pichhe na aana

chura le na tum ko ye mausam suhaana

khuli waadiyon mein akeli na jaana 

ghata bhi kabhi choom leti hai chehra

samajh soch kar rukh se zulfein hataana

ghata mere nazdik aakar to dekhe

in aankhon ne sikha hai bijli giraana

in aankhon ne sikha hai bijli giraana

main jaaungi tum mere pichhe na aana

chura le na tum ko ye mausam suhaana

khuli waadiyon mein akeli na jaana 

main jaaungi tum mere pichhe na aana

khuli waadiyon mein akeli na jaana

teri yaad to ban gayi ik bahaanaa

yunhi dil ne chaaha tha rona rulaana

teri yaad to ban gayi ik bahaana.

saajan bin neend na aave

Classical

The stark difference that uniquely defines the golden era of music is the classical touch imparted by music directors to its songs. The sargam and raags(ragas) added to the song's content in  melody and lyrics.

Special mention for music director S. D. Burman whose music sublimely flows with the song.

chhoo lene do naazuk honthon ko

Lyrical

Sahir Ludhianvi,born as Abdul Hayee, was an unorthdox poet and lyricist who wrote about the declining social values of the society as are evident from the songs of Pyaasa. Quite contrary to his pensive writing, here is a song where he yearns for the lips of his over ,who he think is a goblet, a wineglass.

India in-dependence

"Beware of the ides of March " was what Caesar was warned of, for us its the ides of August, the day when we give a blind eye to all the problems excoriating this "sone ki chidiya" .With problems sprouting from every field be it health or wealth, native or foreign, sports or education, government or bureaucrats or even commoners. The dilemma lies in the fact that we are fighting against ourselves .

"majadhaar mein naiyyaa doobe, to majhee paar lagaaye 

maajhee jo naaw duboye use kaun bachaaye? ".

The post is not intended to belittle the occasion,its euphoria,the experience of coexistence ,the pride on singing the national anthem or the goose flesh we have on hearing "ae mere watan ke logo". The song is a call to the leaders.

"tu idhar udhar ki na baat kar,yeh bataa kaafila kyun loota,
