        Song: Ye Dard Muhobat Ka, Pal? Bhar? Na ??? Ne De
                Dam Bhar Na Sambhal Ne De, Karvat Na Badal Ne De

        Film:   Samraat (1954)
        Music:  Hemant Kumar
        Lyrics: Rajendra Krishna
        Singer: Geeta Roy
        *ing:   Rehana, Ajit, ?

I don't remember the mukhada properly. Sorry about that. But  the
songs  is  a good collection item for those who like Geeta Roy. I
won't say it's a great song. She has better songs than this.  And
in  the  film there exists one, that eludes from my fading memory
right now. I don't remember many instruments, playing along  with
her  singing or as interludes. But Geeta's rendering never allows
you feel - something is missing.

We have Lata songs too, in the film. Particularly  following  one
is a gem:

        'Ye Khamoshiyan Ye Sama Ye Taron Bhara Aasma
                Na Jane Kidhar Le Chali, Taqdir Ki Kashtiyan'

Hemant Kumar uses a amount of orchestra  for  this  one.  Another
very  striking thing about the song is Lata's voice. I don't know
how many times I have mistaken it for Asha's in this song! I have
not  heard  any  song of Lata, where her voice is so close to her
younger sister's.
