Lyrics by Prem Dhawan...........
Mukesh Chand Mathur (Hindi: मुकेश चन्द माथुर) (22 July 1923 27 August 1976) was an Indian playback singer of Bollywood. Along with Mohammad Rafi, Manna Dey, Kishore Kumar, he dominated Indian film playback music from the 1950s to the 1970s.
Mukesh's voice was noticed by Motilal (a popular actor in Hindi films, also a distant relative of Mukesh) when he sang at his sister's wedding. Motilal took him to Bombay, let him stay with him and even arranged for singing lessons by pandit jagannath prasad for him. During this period, Mukesh managed to bag a role in a Hindi film, Nirdosh (Innocent) (1941). His first song was dil hi bujha hua ho to as an actor singer for Nirdosh. He got his break as a playback singer for Actor Motilal himself in 1945 with the film Pehli Nazar'music by Anil Biswas & Lyrics by Aah Sitapuri' (First Look). The first song he sang for a Hindi film was Dil Jalta Hai to Jalne De (If the heart burns, let it burn), which was incidentally picturised on Motilal.
Mukesh died of a heart attack on 27 August 1976 in Detroit, Michigan, USA, where he had gone for a concert. His body was carried back to India by Lata Mangeshkar, where a grand funeral ceremony took place as many famous actors, personalities of the Indian film industry, and fans paid tribute to the late singer. When the news of his death reached Raj Kapoor, he remarked, "I have lost my voice," which is a testimony to the timeless and unforgettable association of Mukesh's voice (in playback) to the immensely popular songs of Raj Kapoor's films.

Hello Yuan. TY. Songs were written by Prem Dhawan who wrote for most Goel movies once Ravi tookover the music department. Goel and Ravi were both from Meerut. Meerut is where the Hindus and Muslims joined hands in cutting off Brit communication wires hence, the beginning of 1857's War of Independence against the Brits. Brits labeled it "Mutiny". Of course they came to the Subcontinent on "Peaceful" grounds. They just ended up making a "Pieceful" division of the land by 1947.

@RealMusicKing - Thank you my dear friend. I just added the name of Prem Dhawan as the lyricist.
With regard to the British, they did it everywhere they ruled. Divide and Rule was their "theme". Sad.

While many singers were good at expressing pain through sweet singing, Talat Mehmood and Mukesh stood at the top of that genre. Thanks for this very touching Mukesh melody, Yuan.( The song ended in mid-sentence somehow).
