Ek Din Bik Jayega Maati Ke Mol - Dharam Karam (1975)

Posted by Nerdyy

Wonder of wonders - R D Burman composing music for a Raj Kapoor film (albeit directed by Randhir Kapoor, a clos e friend of RD - hence that would explain it) and getting Mukesh to sing what is to many the quintessential Raj Kapoor song. Wonderful philosophical lyrics it speaks about leaving behind your life's work for others to savor.


anhonee path mein kaante lakh bichhaye
honee to phir bhi bichra yaar milaye
yeh birha yeh doori do pal ki majboori
phir koi dilwaala kahe ko ghabrayen
dhara jo behti hai milke rehti hai
behti dhara ban ja fir duniya se dol

parde ke peeche baithi saanwal gori
thaam ke tere mere man ki dori
yeh dori na chhoote yeh bandhan na toote
bhor hone wali hai ab raina hai thodi
sar ko jhukaya kya baitha hai yaar
gori se naina jor fir duniya se dol :D
