Great song. Cant listen to it without tears. What an epithet. It symbolises
condition of women in India under Indian (male chauvinists dominated)
marriage, which is very similar to jail or rigorous imprisonment without
any rights or escape !

the beginning of the lyric is that of Amir Khusro's [rA] geet...amir khusro was a great mystic poet of india in teh 17th century AD

A heartful thanks for uploading this soultouching song.The story of this film is based on a book by Jarasandha, a former jail superintendent who wrote fictional versions of his experiences in, Louha-Kapat (1953), Tamasha (1958), Nyaydanda (1961). This was Bimal Roy's final feature as a director, and regarded by many as his crowning achievement.S D Burman composed the songs for the film, at the height of his musical career.

Initially, Asha Bhonsle could not bring the depth of sadness in her voice as required for the song. S. D. Burman knowingly asked her if she doesn't remember her brother. This brought tears to her eyes as the relations between the two were strained which Dada knew. After that the song was recorded in one take.

heart touching song.

Chandan Kumar on January 31, 2010
Amazingly cynical take on the song! Please note she is longing for her
brother (male)...making a plea to her father (Babul means father)...longing
for her maternal home..She is in Jail...not her husband's home...dont
know the story..but its possible he's dead!

SPChitale on March 02, 2010
agree with all and many many thanks for providing addl. background storiis of the song. I have a feeling that the tunes r based on some folk song.

ek bitiya parai hoti hai..doosre ko apnati hai, use apna ghar paraya nahin lagta woh darti hai ki kahin uske kisi action se uske rishton me darar na aa jaye kyonki wahan bhabhi sa ek piyara par najuk rishta hota hai.aur apne naye parivar ka maan dhyaan rakhti hai so...hum ladkiyan kar bhi kya sakti hain

very touchable song. has depth

narindar naswa on November 18, 2010
During the rehearsel of this song when Burman Da was not getting the desired effect , he went to Asha ji and said, " Asha tumhara koi bhai nahi hai kya ".
Result is before you in the shape of this memorable song.
Those were the days , and these were the methods of masters.

Vivek Gautam on December 16, 2010
Was Shailendra the lyricist of this gem? What a great combination of his
with SD Barman. Its really sad that Shailendra committed suicide on Raj
Kapoor birthday totally heart broken by his close friend petty behavior.

PrettySparkle1 on December 20, 2010
my mom LOVES this song! I think that it is the only original one... :)

Kaahay ko biyaahi bides, ray, lakhi baabul more,
Kaahay ko biyaahi bides..
Bhayiyon ko diye babul mehlay do-mehlay,
Hum ko diya pardes, ray, lakhi babul...
Hum to hain babul teray khoontay ki gayyan,
Jid haankay hank jaayen, ray, lakhi babul...
Hum to hain babul teray belay ki kaliyan,
Ghar ghar maangi jaayen, ray lakhi babul...

Vivek Gautam on January 14, 2011
What words ? Stirs your heart even after 52 years of its release . Thats
Shailendra for you who died young n unsung. wow superb lyrics on soothing

Shiv Shanker on February 21, 2011
Very nicely sung with full emotions... great song from Asha Bhonsle who
otherwise sang flambouyant songs...full ten star to you Jayanthi ji... Keep
singing.. regards Shiv Shanker

There is nothing that overwhelms a Sister with joy and pride more than his
brother coming and visiting her home after her marriage.The lyrics,written
by Shailendra,are extremely moving and touching,and so aptly reflect the
delicacy and depth of these relationships.The composition of music by SD
Burman is simply superb and Asha sung(original) it to perfection. And
Jayanthi Ji,too, has sung it with a great soulful melody,with a beautiful
blend of sweetness and sadness.Highly Moving indeed!

imranzaidi6 on February 21, 2011
The close intimate father daughter and sister brother bond,in our culture,
is enviably beautiful and fascinating, and it has multitude of dimensions;a
father-daughter love is so deep,so pure,and so sacred:And brother sister
love is like a delicate holy thread decorated with the deep emotions of
love and affection of a sister for her brother,and the brother's unwavering
commitment to protect her sister from all adversaries. (contd below)

kamlendra jha on February 21, 2011
This is the song that makes you emotional and your eyes moist every time
you hear it. Your singing has done exactly the same Jayanthi ji. Great
singing with perfect feelings.

ajay vijh on February 21, 2011
Soulful singing, one of the best in You Tube !!

johnsandrabaitali on February 21, 2011
Great singing Jayanthi. You sing all your songs with much of feelings. Keep
singing. Regards from John and Sandra.

gulabh on February 21, 2011
Excellent redition of an excellent song. They don't make it like this any
more. Much appreciate you promptly ullfilling my request. ! Its come out
great.

TheNetRoamer on February 22, 2011
A very touching song from a very touching movie - a tale of a sufferings of
an Indian woman who has been imprisoned and is longing for freedom. I have
listened to this number a couple of time as well as the original track of
Asha jee. The comparison of two performances of these two artists is no
less touching. Nowadays we rarely come across this type of songs and
accompanying music .Congrats Jay jee for this fabulous selection and doing
justice to it.

imranzaidi6 on February 22, 2011
@imranzaidi6 Please read--''his sister'' instead of her sister:and ''her
brother'' instead of ''his brother''---Sorry!!

jabasong on February 23, 2011
What a marvel Sachin Da, Shailendra ji, Asha Tai have created!!!

Bharat Gul on February 24, 2011
Wow, Ms. Nadig. You should win plaudits from Ashaji as you are winning
from us listeners now. Outstanding job of preserving the emotional depth of
the original.

Pradeep Sharma on March 02, 2011
