Ok so now we know – प्यार किसे कहते हैं। (what is this thing we call love). Explained quite lucidly in this song.
jabse mili teri meethi mohabbat
chocolate ka khaana chhod diya
Discovering your sweet love
Have forsaken even chocolate
Aah, what a sublime sacrifice, forsaking the delicious trappings of this world, all for having found love. Nothing, no other sacrifice could be more convincing.
But that is not all. The song contains many more such forfeitures that the new lovers are promising to each other. I am not sure whether the die hard fans of Hindi film music would dare to cross that bridge, but in this song the lovers are promising that the cinema and the film songs have been forsaken too, now that they are seeing each other, and are listening to the songs sung by the other.
dekhi hai jab se surat tumhari
cinema bhi jaana chhod diya
jabse suney hain tere ye gaane
filmon ka gaana chhod diya
I simply had too much fun uploading this song and scripting the lyrics. Quite an epitome of hilarity.
The film is ‘Naya Raasta’ from 1953. Produced and directed by Jayant Desai for his own production company, the cast of actors for this film is Nirupa Roy, Agha, Manhar Desai, Bipin Gupta, Satya Narayan, Surya Kumari, Umakant, Babu Raje, Charu Bala, Gulab, Master Prem Kumar, Krishna Kumari. Sadly, the video is not available – I would have loved to see who is performing this song on screen. I request other knowledgeable readers and friends to please add more information about the film and the song.
The eight songs of this film come from the pens of three song writers – Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, Anjum Jaipuri and Saraswati Kumar ‘Deepak’. This song is written by Raja Mehdi Ali Khan. Music is by Chitragupt. The singing voices are those of Chitragupt himself and Shamshad Begum. One song from this film is already on board, and this is the second song to find its place here today.
A fun tour into the hearts of a pair of new love birds. Listen and enjoy.
Song – Dekhin Hain Jabse Teri Ye Aankhen (Naya Raasta) (1953) Singers – Chitragupt, Shamshad Begum, Lyrics – Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, MD – Chitragupt

Lyrics
dekhin hain jabse
teri ye aankhen
aankhen ladaana chhod diya
dekhin hain jabse
teri ye aankhen
aankhen ladaana chhod diya
aankhen ladaana
sadkon pe jaana
chashma lagaana
chhod diya
ae ji dekhin hain jabse
nazren tumhari
nazren churaana chhod diya
dekhin hain jabse
nazren tumhari
nazren churaana chhod diya
nazren churaana
tumse lajaana
mukhda chhupaana chhod diya
o ji dekhin hain jabse
teri ye aankhen
aankhen ladaana chhod diya
oo ooo oo ooo
hum bhi hain raazi
qaazi bhi raazi
kheli hai aisi mohabbat ki baazi
reson mein jaana
paise gawaana
ghode fasaana chhod diya
ae ji dekhin hain jabse
nazren tumhari
nazren churaana chhod diya
oo ooo oo oo
dil jitna bhi naache
utna hi kam hai
fashion ki duniya mein pehla kadam hai
chauke mein jaana
roti pakaana
belan chalaana chhod diya
dekhin hain jabse
nazren tumhari
nazren churaana chhod diya. . .aa. . .
ae ji chhod diya
chhod diya
chhod diya
ae ji chhod diya
chhod diya
chhod diya
ae jabse basey tum
nainon mein mere
surma lagaana chhod diya
ae dekhi hai jab se
surat tumhari
cinema bhi jaana chhod diya
jabse suney hain
tere ye gaane
filmon ka gaana chhod diya
jabse mili teri meethi mohabbat
chocolate ka khaana chhod diya
ae ji dekhin hain jabse
nazren tumhari
o ji dekhin hain jabse
teri ye aankhen
nazren churaana
aankhen ladaana
chhod diya
chhod diya
chhod diya. .aa. .aa

देखीं हैं जबसे
तेरी ये आँखें
आँखें लड़ाना छोड़ दिया
देखीं हैं जबसे
तेरी ये आँखें
आँखें लड़ाना छोड़ दिया
आँखें लड़ाना
सड़कों पे जाना
चश्मा लगाना छोड़ दिया
ए जी देखीं हैं जबसे
नज़रें तुम्हारी
नज़रें चुराना छोड़ दिया
देखीं हैं जबसे
नज़रें तुम्हारी
नज़रें चुराना छोड़ दिया
नज़रें चुराना
तुमसे लजाना
मुखड़ा छुपाना छोड़ दिया
ओ जी देखीं हैं जबसे
तेरी ये आँखें
आँखें लड़ाना छोड़ दिया
ओ ओ ओ ओ
हम भी हैं राज़ी
क़ाज़ी भी राज़ी
खेली है ऐसी मोहब्बत की बाज़ी
रेसों में जाना
पैसे गवाना
घोड़े फसाना छोड़ दिया
ए जी देखीं हैं जबसे
नज़रें तुम्हारी
नज़रें चुराना छोड़ दिया
ओ ओ ओ ओ
दिल जितना भी नाचे
उतना ही कम है
फ़ैशन की दुनिया में पहला कदम है
चौके में जाना
रोटी पकाना
बेलन चलाना छोड़ दिया
देखीं हैं जबसे
तेरी ये आँखें
आँखें लड़ाना छोड़ दिया॰ ॰आss
ए जी छोड़ दिया
छोड़ दिया
छोड़ दिया
ए जी छोड़ दिया
छोड़ दिया
छोड़ दिया
ए जबसे बसे तुम
नैनों में मेरे
सुरमा लगाना छोड़ दिया
ए देखी है जबसे
सूरत तुम्हारी
सिनेमा भी जाना छोड़ दिया
जबसे सुने हैं
तेरे ये गाने
फिल्मों का गाना छोड़ दिया
जबसे मिली तेरी मीठी मोहब्बत
चाकलेट का खाना छोड़ दिया
ए जी देखीं हैं जबसे
नज़रें तुम्हारी
ए जी देखीं हैं जबसे
तेरी ये आँखें
नज़रें चुराना
आँखें लड़ाना
छोड़ दिया
छोड़ दिया
छोड़ दिया॰ ॰आs॰ ॰आs
