Aah : Ye Shaam Ki Tanhaiyan

"Aah" is an Hindi feature film which was released in 1953. The release date was perhaps 22 March, though I am not very sure about it. It was directed by Raja Nawathe for Raj Kapoor, the Great Showman of Indian Cinema. I have seen this film long time ago. The film is full of melodious songs. Music was composed by Shankar Jaikishan. Lyrics were written by Hasrat Jaipuri and Shailendra. This one , I’m writing here, is one of my favourites from the movie, is sung by Melody Queen Lata Mangeshkar.

ये शाम की तन्हाईयाँ, ऐसे में तेरा ग़म।
पत्ते कहीं खड़के, हवा आई, तो चौंके हम॥

जिस राह से तुम आने को थे,
उसके निशां भी मिटने लगे,
आए न तुम, सौ सौ दफा आए गए मौसम॥

सीने से लगा तेरी याद को,
रोती रही मैं रात को,
हालत पे मेरी चाँद तारे रो गए शबनम॥

Aah (1953)
ye shaam ki tanhaiyan, aise me tera gham
patte kahi khadke, hawa aaii, to chaunke ham

jis raah se tum aane ko the,
uske nishaan bhi mitne lage,
aaye na tum sau sau dafa, aaye gaye mausam.

sine se laga teri yaad ko,
roti rahi mai raat ko,
halat pe meri chand tare ro gaye shabnam.

- आह (1953)
