Mother's Songs, Lullabies [1 Of 2] - Indian Cinema - 1950s And 1960s

These beautiful Lullabies [6 songs in 2 videos] must have been sung by millions of mothers, sisters and even fathers and brothers of our subcontinent during the past 60 years, in order to calming children, putting them to sleep, or simply spending time with them!

I am privileged to DEDICATE THESE MEMORABLE VIDEOS [SONGS] TO ALL THE MOTHERS, SISTERS, FATHERS AND BROTHERS OF OUR SUBCONTINENT.
May God bless them.

"A lullaby is a soothing song, usually sung to young children before they go to sleep, with the intention of speeding that process. As a result they are often simple and repetitive. Lullabies can be found in every human culture and seem to have been used at least from the ancient period."
[Wikipedia]

Song No. 1 - Lata Mangeshkar - Aaja Re Aa Nindiya Tu Aa - Do Bigha Zamin [1953]

Song No. 2 - Lata Mangeshkar - Main Gaaoon Tu Chup Ho Ja - Do Aankhen Barah Haath [1957]

"Do Bigha Zamin" (Two Acres of Land) is 1953 Bollywood film, directed by Bengali director Bimal Roy and star Balraj Sahni and Nirupa Roy in lead roles. The film is known for its socialist theme, and is an important film in the early parallel cinema of India and is rightly considered a trend setter.

Like most of movies by Bimal Roy, art and commercial cinema are merged to create a movie that is still looked upon as a benchmark and paved way for future cinema makers in the neo-realist movement, which was about to start in the 70s..

In 2005, Indiatimes Movies ranked the movie amongst the Top 25 Must See Bollywood Films. Music is by Salil Choudhury.
Lyrics by Shailendra.

"Do Bigha Zamin" won the Prix Internationale at the 1954 Cannes Film Festival and the Prize for Social Progress at the Karlovy Vary film festival. The movie won the first ever Filmfare Best Movie Award in 1954. Bimal Roy won the Filmfare Best Director Award. The movie also won the Certificate of Merit at National Film Award of India................


"Do Aankhen Barah Haath" (English: Two Eyes & Twelve Hands,Hindi - दो आँखें बारह हाथ )is a 1957 Hindi film directed by the Indian film director V.Shantaram, who also starred in the film. It is considered one of the classics of Hindi cinema and is based on morals of Gandhian philosophy. It won a Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival and it was the first Indian film to win a Golden Globe Award.

The film is also remembered for its theme song, Aye maalik tere bande hum, sung by Lata Mangeshkar and written by Bharat Vyas.
Music is by Vasant Desai and lyrics by Bharat Vyas.

The film was inspired by the story of an 'open-prison' experiment in the princely state of Oundh near Pune, which was recounted by screenwriter G. D. Madgulkar to V. Shantaram. In 2005, Indiatimes Movies ranked the movie amongst the Top 25 Must See Bollywood Films. During the filming V. Shantaram battled with a bull and he hurt his one eye during the stunt, though luckily his eyesight survived. The film was later remade into the Telugu color film Maa Daivam (1976) starring NTR and Jayachitra. The Hollywood film The Dirty Dozen (1967) also appears to have been inspired by this film.

@steingarten3 - My dear friend, I am touched by your comment.

First of all, may your beloved mother's soul Rest In Peace.

Secondly, yes, we all know that these beautiful lullabies have been sung by millions of mothers/sisters and even fathers and brothers in our subcontinent for the past 50 odd years and that is why I dedicated these videos to THEM.

May God bless you.

You put three of the finest lullabies in one upload, Yuan. The first two, in particular, are destined to remain as part of the crown jewels in this genre. Thank you.

[yuanyuanyuanyin]

@BharatGul - Thank you my dear Professor for your kind words.

As you know, I always appreciate and value them.

All these songs have been posted in this channel separately [years back] but I wanted to get some of them in to one video [in series] and this is the result.

Unfortunately, I could not compile some of the best due to the "perinatal problem" we all are facing, that is the CR issues! LOL

Thank you again and take care.

What do the words mean? these are so lovely.

Aye Maa'n, Aye Maa'n
