Newly-discovered Shakkel Badayuni was asked by Naushad, before being allowed to write lyrics to his compositions for hisupcoming film 'Dard', to summarize himself and his poetry. His response:

"Ham dard ka afsaana duniya ko suna denge, har dil mein muhabbat ki ek aag lagaa denge"

[Pradeepkrlko]

[ajbarish]

Hi from Romania ! I simply love old Urdu music ! Thank you so very much for sharing this song !

[rebhos1]

WOW! No word can describe the feeling it hits the heart. More and more orphans around the world but who cares.

[humayunhalim]

Going down the memory lane :-) I really enjoyed this song. It brought back flashes of days of Dar-Ut-Tulaba!

if one has a human heart he/she must have wept with tears in eyes. No doubt hojaigi phir aabaad duniya yateemon ki - sure - it happens. Let's all always help yateems because one day our children will also be yateems as many of us are. Great posting - thanks

@zahidsz72833

Hello ! I am from Romania (East Europe) and I love Indian movies , especially the old ones. Unfortunately, I know neither Urdu, nor Hindi . I have seen in your comment a word, "yateems", which has drawn my attention. What does it mean? Could you, please, tell me how I could translate it or explain it to me? What you wrote here sounds really interesting to me.

[sbhatt88]

@ajbarish "yateem" is a word of arabic origin in the urdu language meaning "orphan" [the song takes place at a yateemkhane, or "orphanage"]. the chorus goes "ham dard ka afsaana duniya ko suna denge, har dil mein muhabbat ki ek aag lagaa denge" meaning "we will tell the world a tale of pain, in each heart we will light a fire of love". the urdu inscription at the beginning says "yateemon ki imdaad karna har insaan ka farz hai", meaning "it is obligatory upon every person to assist orphans".

[sbhatt88]

@ajbarish also, the post by 'zahidsz72833' refers to a line in the song meaning "one day the world will once again become abundant/populated with orphans" [meaning when our parents pass away, we will technically all be orphans; the following line goes "goonjege zamaane mein faryaad yateemon ki" meaning "then the complaints/cries of the orphans will echo throughout the world"]

[atiullah97]

Masterpiece song. Why prophets followers suffer atrocities? Why Allahs servants suffer rough seas? After 63 years we still sing the same sorrow.‏

[petrokem]

are you sure this film was made in 1947 - I think this movie was made in the year 1942 - kindly correct me

[sbhatt88]

@petrokem the movie was definitely released in 1947.

Amazing. Thanks for uploading this rear gem.

[guru4us2008]

Oh my goodness

Listening to this after a spell of 30 years.

You brought tears in my eyes by uploading this song - a song that I was searching for a long time.

Many thanks

[SuperAther]

best song

[yogaisgoogygoogy]

Naushad DID NOT have Lata or Asha in the earlier movie yet the songs were fabulous hits ! It was his sheer talent and genius that mesmerised the listeners ! May God rest his soul !

[himsingz]

@yogaisgoogygoogy You mast have heard this song. Do you think Lata or Asha could have sung it better? Naushad was lucky too... to have giants like Suraiya and Noor Jehan giving voice to his compositions.

[ZAINUKHAN]

@yogaisgoogygoogy

YOU ARE QUITE RIGHT. NAUSHAD SAHAB'S CREATIVE GENIUS IN FACT HELPED RAFI LATA ASHA AND MANY OTHERS TO FAME. HE USED UMA DEVI'S (TUN TUN) VOICE, KL SAIGAL, SHAMSHAD, GM DURRANI, SHYAM SUNDER, SURENDER, SURAYYA, HEMANT KUMAR, MUKESH, MANNA DEY, BADE GHULAM ALI KHAN, PANDIT PALUSKAR, AMIR KHAN, PARVIN SULTANA, AND OF COURSE NOOR JEHAN AND MANY OTHERS FOR HIS SONGS. ONLY THE RIGHT VOICE FOR THE SITUATION. RAFI, ASHA AND LATA WERE A PART OF HIS MUSIC ENSEMBLE.
