Mohammed Rafi – ‘अ’ से ‘ह’ तक (From ‘अ’ to ‘ह’) – 28

“बहारों ने छेड़ा खुशी का तराना”
The antecedents of this song are somewhat peculiar. As per available information, this song is listed in the Geet Kosh for the film ‘Aansoo’, an unreleased film from 1970s. Also, as I checked for online availability, I find that this song is posted for the film ‘Majboori’, that is listed for the year 1986. I went back and double checked other songs which are listed in the Geet Kosh for the unreleased film ‘Aansoo’, and sure enough, the songs listed in Geet Kosh figure in the film ‘Majboori’. The most likely scenario is that the film was started sometimes in the 1970s, with the title ‘Aansoo’, and the songs were created and released under that film name. The film would have been delayed inordinately, and finally found its release almost a decade later in 1986, albeit under a different title – ‘Majboori’.
So a song from a film initiated in the 1970s, finally released in 1986, and yet carrying the flavor of the late 1950s or early 1960s. When I heard this song some months back in a set of recordings of songs from unreleased films shared by my collector friend Zafar Bhai, my mind immediately latched on to this. The sounds of this song took me back to the 1950s and 1960s, reminding me of similar songs of love expressed in bubbly and soft tones.
Some online references identify the songwriter to be Aish Kanwal. Interesting thing is the name of the music director. It is clearly mentioned that the MD for this film is Roshan Lal Khatri. But there is any number of online references that confuse the MD’s name with that of the famous music director Roshan (Nagrath). Same name confusions can happen. However, the name of Roshan is well known. He passed away in 1967. The name Roshan Lal Khatri does not appear in the listings before 1972. And then after two films (one in 1972, and one in 1973), and one unreleased film (this one, i.e. ‘Aansoo’, 1970s), his name is not appearing anywhere else in the Geet Kosh.
Listen to this lilting melody, rendered so beautifully by Rafi Sb. And be carried back to the golden era of melody.

खुशी का तराना
मेरी आज उनसे मुलाक़ात होगी
मेरी आज उनसे मुलाक़ात होगी

सलाम ए
मोहब्बत
मैं उनसे कहूँगा
सलाम ए
मोहब्बत

वफा का
सुना के रहूँगा
दिल को यकीं वो बात मेरी मान जाएँगे
दिल को यकीं वो बात मेरी मान जाएँगे
बहारों

खुशी का तराना
मोहब्बत

लगाऊँ-
गा उनको
मैं सीने से पहले
वो प्यार के इक़रार को पहचान जाएँगे
वो प्यार के इक़रार को पहचान जाएँगे

मुलाक़ात के दिन
आ हा हा
मुकद्दर

ये दिन भी

इनायात के दिन
हम आज बनके हुस्न के मेहमान जाएँगे
हम आज बनके हुस्न के मेहमान जाएँगे
बहारों

खुशी का तराना
बहारों

खुशी का तराना
मेरी आज उनसे मुलाक़ात होगी
