Duniya Yeh Duniya Toofan Mail Jawab 1942 Kanan Devi

This is probably the most popular song of Kanan Devi. The music of the song is by the legendary Kamala Dasgupta. The seemingly simple lyrics with a deep meaning are by Pandit Madhur.

This vhs rip was shared with me by the ever generous yob ji. If someone has a better video do please upload it.

Lyrics of the lovely song are as follows:-

Toofan Mail, Duniya Yeh Duniya Toofan Mail (This world is a Toofan(storm) train - signifying fast changing place)

iske Pahiye Zor Se Chalte (Its wheels run very fast)
aur Apna Rasta Taye Karte (and complete their journey)
sayane Is-se Kaam Nikalen (smart people use it for their work)
bacche Samjhen Khel (while the kids think its fun)
toofan Mail...

koi Kahan Ka Ticket Kataata (Everyone takes tickets for different stops)
ek Hai Aata Ek Hai Jaata (One passenger comes and another one goes)
sabhi Musafir Bichhad Jayenge (All passengers will get separated)
pal Bhar Ka Hai Mel (The meeting is but momentary)
toofan Mail...

jo Jitni Poonji Hai Rakhta (According to their monetary capacity)
woh Utna Safar Hai Karta (people travel)
jeevan Ka Hai Bhed Batati (the secret of life is revealed)
gyani Ko Yeh Rail (to the wise by this train)
toofan Mail...

My God , it was one of the most favorite song of my father(now died), auntie (now 82 years old), Grandfather(died long ago), uncle (died recently 11-9-11). in my childhood all family members sit together every saturday and sunday and listen old songs in their gramophone record player. i just typed this song in you tube. i was not sure that i can listen this in ipod & sheela ki jawani era.
