Recently there has been lot of discussion on RMIM regarding Songs with Punjabi
words, tunes as well as songs with Tamil words (RE: tere mere beech mein) etc.
This reminded me of a few songs which had a few Marathi words or lines in them.
The most famous song would be 'Galyaan saankhali sonyaachi, hii porii koNaachii'
from 'Dil hai ke maanataa nahin'. This line is not exactly Marathi but more like
may be KokaNii or some other dialect of Marathi. There is another song from
'Inkaar'(Vinod Khanna, Amjad Khaan) sung by Usha Mangeshkar which goes like 'Tuu
mungaLaa, main gud ki kali(?)'. This song also has a line 'kaisaa mulagaa hai yeh
sharmilaa isase to mulagi bhali'. Apart from these two songs, I cannot remember
any other Hindi song with Marathi words. Well, there is one more song 'Govindaa
aalaa re aalaa...' from a Shammi Kapoor movie. Are there any more??

The song Dariya Kinare ek bunglow hoto re dai do dai?? has some
marathi words I believe.

Film: Sabse Bada Rupaiya
Singers : KK & Usha Mangeshkar
picturised on Vinod Mehra & Farida jalal

How about songs with Hyderabadi accent??
'Khaaton ki khidmat mein salaam apan ka'
'Ami kaale hain to kya hua dilwale hain' etc etc

Off the top of my head, I can think of two songs:

"I love you
Pyar karoon Chhoo
Zhala mala prem zhala"

Or something like that from Mahasangram. Madhuri is dancing. Alka is
crooning.

"Aaiga Aaiga Aaiga yeh kya ho gaya"

From Boyfriend. Starring Shammi Kapoor and Madhubala. Rafi and Arati
Mukherjee singing.

:-) Nopes... 'pori' is again a word (usually plural) for
'girl'... That line in the song is quite non-sensical, in fact. My
guess is the lyricist gave up... :-)

In the movie 'Chaachaa Bhatijaa', Hema Malini plays the role of a Marathi woman and
keeps saying 'Kaay samajale?'(i.e. got it?) to Dharmendra (although those two
words don't sound Marathi at all). There is one song in her 'bar' where she asks
Dharmendra to quit drinking. But I am unable to recall the wordings of the song
and I am not sure if the song has any Marathi words. Does anyone else know about
this song? I think the song is sung by Lata.

I can't remember the words to this song at all but the name of the movie
is Gair Kanooni with Sridevi, Govinda, Rajnikant, and Kimi Katkar. The
song has Sri and Govinda and they're dressed in Kokni type clothes. The
song itself (I think) takes a lot of different reginal folk tunes. The
Marathi part is right at the beginning of the song. Great dancing, by the
way, on both Sri and Govinda's parts.

I'm Marathi myself and I think I remember hearing a Marathi song long ago
which sounded a lot like the song "Lo chali mein" from HAHK. Am I right?
Did Ramlaxman borrow from a Marathi folk song?

I can't recall the song exactly - maybe it is 'rafta rafta dekho aankh
meri ladi hai' or 'jai jai shiv shakar' - but, in that Kishore Kumar song
he sings, the following marathi words

ye, jawaL ye laaju nako (come closer, don't feel shy)

An old Shamshaad Begum song that begins, "Yeh, duniya roop ke chor,
bachaale mujhe baboo, bachaale mujhe baboo re," or something like it, has
lines from many languages including the Marathi:

"Aga gulabachaa kali zara ikde ye, zara ikde ye,

I know one song with marathi words in it but don't remember the name of
the movie. So it is kind of a quiz for you guys out there.
The songs goes like...
"aisa ladka mila na koi ab tak, jo ankhon me meri bus jayen"
The beginning of the song goes like "porki, porki daru chi batli sonya
chi sakli ikde aa" (I think it means, girl like a bottle of alcohol,
come here?)
this song was picturized on Raj Babbar and Dimple and as far as I
remember they had a cameo role in this song only.

It *is* Hyderabadi. Although there is some overlap between Hyderabadi and
Bambaiya (waainch, kaiku etc.) the lyrics and AB's attire in the Desh Premi
song are without any doubt Hyderabadi. KHatoon and KHidmat are both Urdu words
which I really doubt wud be used in Bambaiya. Moreover, poTTi paTaana, daantaaN,
haathaaN, "Paichhane kya, aashik KU", faquat, etc. are purely Hyderabadi as
well.

You are correct here... and the same word is used in the Desh Premi song as
well:

"Mar miTne me jaanam, HAMEIN logaaN hai maahir
Ghuskar tere dil me, niklenge na baahir
Wuarcha ho kafan ka, na quarcha ho dafan ka..."

Which word?? Is 'kaaga' Maraathi for a 'crow'? It didn't seem like it
because when I heard the song I was immediately able to 'put a meaning'
on the word. So seems like I must have heard it before. I just figured
it was hindi, or just another derivation of 'kavvaa' in Urdu.. *shrug*
Please let me know if it is Maraathi, then I'll have to figure out why,
or how, I knew the meaning. :)

I do not know about 'Kagaa' in Marathi but sure that in Gujarati it has
been used in poetry, normally spoken as 'Kagdo', I also remember that in
some Rajsthani lokgeet 'kagaa' word was being used.
Also there was another song A GEM by MD madanmohan in his first movie
ANKHEN by Mina Kapoor..
'Mori atariya pe kaga bole ......'

NO, the song 'Maayeni-maaye' from HAHK does NOT have any MaraaThii words.
I think the beginning is a Punjaabii line but I am not sure. There is no MaraaThii
word such as 'Kaaga'. I think kaaga is Hindi word for 'Kauva'. In MaraaThii, we
have the word 'KaavaLaa'.
So once again, the song does not have any Maraathii words.

`kaagaa' is definitely in the Hindi language; maybe not in Marathi. Of
course, the whole song has a Panjabi overtone, starting with the
`maaii ni maaii, munDer....' bit, which is Panjabi.

'kaaga' is Sanskrit for crow. Sometimes it is used in Marathi poetry.
Now don't ask me to actually write one line, bcos I don't remember.

Umm... Shailesh, I don't recall ever having come across
'kaaga' in either Sanskrit or Marathi. The Sanskrit word for crow
AFAIK is 'kaak' and not 'kaaga'.

And as far as the song from HAHK goes, IMO it has a distinctly
Punjabi flavor...

In the bigger picture of this thread, I have found that
typically Hindi songs have Marathi words only when ---

1. one of the on-screen singers is portrayed as a
stereotypical Marathi character
or 2. the song itself is an adaptation of Marathi folk music,
especially a 'koLigeet' (e.g. galyaan saankli sonyaachi...)
or a 'laavaNi' (e.g. lavangi mirchi... from 'Ashaanti').

It doesn't even 'sound' Sanskrit.

Another song with Marathi words :

'Zindagi hai khel, koi pass koi fail
Khiladi hai koi, Anadi hai koi'

(Manna Dey+Asha, Seeta Aur Geeta, RDB, Majrooh)

And might I add that Manna and Asha have done wonderful
job here. However, I don't understand some marathi words
spoken in between.
