RMIM ke bhaio aur baheno,

This is #14 of a series based on the famous Vividh Bharathi radio program
"Chhaya Geet" in which songs based on a particular theme are played. Chhaya
Geet is usually posted on Wednesdays on RMIM.

This series serves to corroborate the "Naushad fan postulate" which states
that for every REAL life situation, there exists atleast one REAL song which
can be sung in your IMAGINARY world ! :-) This series is also a small tribute
to my favourite Vividh Bharathi announcer and Chhaya Geet hostess Kanta Gupta.

CHHAYA GEET #14

TODAY'S SITUATION/THEME: There are times in our lives when we wish to do
something, but we just cannot. No matter how hard we try, we find ourselves in
a helpless situation. Helplessness is a REAL life situation, and therefore it
is no wonder that there exist some songs which describe this state. I hope u
will enjoy them. If not, please understand my "helplessness" at not being able
to please u :-)

Sami Mohammed (A Naushad fan)


1. Uljhan suljhe na
   Rasta soojhe na
   Jaaun kahan main
   Jaaun kahan..................................................(Asha)

2. Nazar aati nahin manzil
   TaRapne se bhi kya haasil
   Taqdeer me, ai mere dil
   Andhere hi andhere hain
   Nazar aati nahin manzil.......................(Rafi, Chandrani Mukherji)

3. Jaaun kahan bata ai dil
   Duniya baRi hai sangdil
   Chandni aaee ghar jalane
   Soojhe na koi manzil
   Jaaun kahan bata ai dil.......................................(Mukesh)

4. Mere ai dil bata, mere ai dil bata
   Pyaar tu ne kiya, paee main ne saza
   Kya karun, kya karun, kya karun, kya karun
   Mere ai dil bata...............................................(Lata)

5. Tujhse naraaz nahin zindagi hairaan hun main

   Ho, pareshan hun main...................................(Lata, ????)

6. Apne jeevan ki uljhan ko

7. Tera GHam-KHaar hun, lekin main tujh tak aa nahin sakta
   Main apne naam teri bekasi likhwa nahin sakta

   Tere GHam me tujhko behlaaun, aisi meri taqdeer kahan
   Teri aankh ke aansu peejaaun.............................(Talat Mehmood)
