Angna Mein Aayi Bahar Mehndi Rang Laayi Movie Named
Stephanie Dejoode
Raja Mehdi Ali Khan was chosen by me as Lyricist #9 (not in any particular order or ranking) in Remembering Great Lyricists series. He has been a favourite and I already have a comprehensive post on him: The Magic Of The Lyrics Of Raja Mehdi Ali Khan.
Having been born in 1928 in Jehlum in undivided India, when the partition of India took place, Raja Mehdi Ali Khan and wife Tahira refused to go to Pakistan despite communal riots. His patriotism came to fore in 1948 itself when he wrote the famous number: Watan ki raah mein watan ke naujwaan shahid hon for the movie Shaheed starring Dilip Kumar.
When Shakeel gave his first film song in 1947 Dard: Afsana likh rahi hoon, Shakeel was 31 years old. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan was just 18 when he gave his, in his first movie Do Bhai. And what a song it was, sung by Geeta Dutt.
1. Aap ki nazaron ne samajha pyaar ke kaabil mujhe.
2. Agar mujhase mohabbat hai mujhe sab apne gham de do.
3. Sapano mein agar mere tum aao to so jaayun.
4. Naaina barse rimjhim rimjhim.
5. Lag jaao gale ke phir ye hasin raat ho na ho.
6. Naino mein badra chhaye.
He was back with Basant Prakash (one song penned by Aziz Kashmiri was composed by Vinod). Out of the eight songs, Raja penned three; the others were by Aziz Kashmiri, Hasrat Jaipuri, and Arjun Dev Ishq.
My vote goes to the last one after listening to all three (it was difficult finding them). Why? Because the song shows the development of Lata Mangeshkar into a singer par excellence.
dhundte hai tujhko bago me bahar aayi hui
mere dil pe tere gum ki hai ghata chai hui
dekh phulo ke najare laut aa
dekh phulo ke najare laut aa
mera har aasu pukare laut aa laut aa
zindgani ke sahare laut aa
zindgani ke sahare laut aa
kya khabar thi tere bin
ek pal na chal payenge hum
tum agar wapas na aaye haye mar jayenge hum
meri kismat ke sitare laut aa
meri kismat ke sitare laut aa
mera har aasu pukare laut aa laut aa
zindgani ke sahare laut aa
zindgani ke sahare laut aa
chain kuchh din dil e bechain pata hi nahi
chain kuchh din dil e bechain pata hi nahi
lakh bahlate hai bahlaye me aata hi nahi
kya karu hay meri jan pe ban aayi hai
ban aai hai
dard hai gham hai, teri yaad hai tanhai hai
humne ye dil ke lagaane ki saja payi hai
saja payi hai
humne ye dil ke
yad ab tak teri sine me chhupa rakhi hai
yad ab tak teri sine me chhupa rakhi hai
humne aandhi me bhi ye shamma jala rakhi hai
aur bujhayenge nahi humne kasam khayi hai
kasam khayi hai
dard hai gham hai, teri yaad hai tanhai hai
humne ye dil ke lagane ki saja paai hai
saja payi hai
humne ye dil ke
There were eight songs in the movie that were composed by S Mohinder who tried Rajendra Krishan, Sarshar Sailani, Hasrat Jaipuri, Surjit Sethi, Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, and Butaram Sharma to write the lyrics.

Once again S Mohinder composed eight songs in the movie penned by Rajendra Krishan, Sarshar Sailani, Kunwar Mahendra Singh Bedi, Surjit Sethi, Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, and Firoz Jalandhari.
jhuthe pyar kaa jaal bichhaya
bhola tha panchhi jaal me aaya
jhuthe pyar kaa jaal bichhaya
bhola tha panchhi jaal me aaya
dhokhebaaj hai mad ke bhare ye
dhokhebaaj hai mad ke bhare ye
jalim naian tumhare
chanda kaa dil tut gaya rone lage hain sitare
jab tujhe duniya me laya hoga
bhagwan bhi pachhtaya hoga
neki kabhi naa bhul ke aayi
neki kabhi naa bhul ke aayi
jalim tere daware
chanda kaa dil tut gaya rone lage hain sitare
dharati kaa sina kanp raha hai dekh ke julm tumhare

maro maro maro maro sar pe mohabbat ka danda
o maro sar pe mohabbat ka danda danda danda
o ishaq ho jayega uska thanda
thanda thanda ishaq ho jayega uska thanda
aankh milake pas bulake maro sar pe danda
mar khane wale aap se hazaro hai
azi unme se hum bhi ek hai
o azi unme se hum bhi ek hai
o azi unme se hum bhi ek hai

4. Rang rangeele pyare pyare laye.
5. Rang rangeele pyare pyare laye hum khilaune.
We are covering his career of the year 1954, that is, eighth year after he joined with Do Bhai. Yesterday, I gave you a delightful song from Miss Mary starring Kishore Kumar and Vyjayanthimala.
Avinash Vyas composed eight songs in the movie and used lyricists Prem Dhawan, Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, Neelkanth Tiwari, and Saraswati Kumar Deepak. Rarely, you would find lyricists such as Hasrat Jaipuri and Shailendra who were attached to Shankar Jaiklishan, Shakeel with Naushad or Indeevar with Kalyanji Anandji. Most others went from one MD to the other.
