Songs to Tickle Your Memory – 24

It is not that Arvinder ji has requested this song loong back. His request is fairly recent. But he has been so consistently persistent that he has been reminding me at least twice a day (somedays even more than twice) to post this song. A song that has been in the memory for oh so long. But he could not find it anywhere on the internet and YouTube. When he checked with me a few days ago, I confirmed to him that yes, I have it. Then last week, it so happened that he was riding with me in my car, and I had the very CD in the player, that contains this song. When the song played, wow, the excitement on his face was something that has to be seen to be believed.
And so his persistence with reminders became even more acute. I could have given him the song on a pen drive or a CD. But for him, the primary listening mode is his own playlist on YouTube, which he accesses from his smartphone, and listens to his favorites, whenever and wherever. And so his continuous demand that this song be uploaded on the YouTube. [As he tells me, he does not know how to use a PC. And so. . .]
Of course, besides and inspite of the consistent persistent pestering, I have to thank Arvinder ji for bringing back to memory one of those memorable songs that we heard the radio. The lilting and catchy tune of this song made me immediately sit up, when I pulled it out and heard it after Arvinder ji reminded me. What a wonderful melody this one is.
The film is ‘Bekhabar’ from 1965. Words are from the pen of Raja Mehdi Ali Khan. Music comes from the mind of S Mohinder, and the singing voice is that of Suman Kalyanpur. Goodness, this song is waiting to be found. . . no, this song should not have been waiting to be found.
Ah but, enough said. Click the play button and listen to this charming quick paced folk style. And enjoy.
Song – . . . Ke Meethi Meethi Karejwaa Mein Peer Hoye Re (Bekhabar) (1965) Singer – Suman Kalyanpur, Lyrics – Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, MD – S Mohinder
Chorus
Lyrics
khadi thi bagiya mein hairaan
ke aa gaye sainyyaan beimaan
kuchh aisa kas ke maara baan
ke meethi meethi
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
hum to jaane deewani tu kaahe ko roye re
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
sharam sainyyaan se mohe laagi
haaye. . .
sharam sainyyaan se mohe laagi
chhuda ke haath wahaan se bhaagi
main birhan saari raina jaagi
ke meethi meethi
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
hum to jaane deewani tu kaahe ko roye re
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
subeh sainyyaan aaye ghabrai ke
haaye. . .
subeh sainyyaan aaye ghabrai ke
tabiyat poochhan laage a’ee ke
to main boli ghunghat sarkai ke
ke meethi meethi
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
hum to jaane deewani tu kaahe ko roye re
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
piya bole nadiya le jaaun
haaye. . .
piya bole nadiya le jaaun
main tera kanchan jee behlaaun
main boli u’ee mein kaise jaaun
ke meethi meethi
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
hum to jaane deewani tu kaahe ko roye re
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
piya ne meri ek naa maani
haaye. . .
piya ne meri ek naa maani
pakad kar peehar lai gaye jaani
main na na karti rahi deewaani
ke meethi meethi
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re
hum to jaane deewani tu kaahe ko roye re
o meethi karejwaa mein peer hoye re

खड़ी थी बगिया में हैरान
के आ गए सैंय्यां बेईमान
कुछ ऐसा कस के मारा बान
के मीठी मीठी
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
हम तो जानें दीवानी तू काहे को रोये रे
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
शरम सैंय्यां से मोहे लागि
हाए॰ ॰ ॰
शरम सैंय्यां से मोहे लागि
छुड़ा के हाथ वहाँ से भागी
मैं बिरहन सारी रैना जागी
के मीठी मीठी
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
हम तो जानें दीवानी तू काहे को रोये रे
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
सुबह सैंय्यां आए घबरई के
हाए॰ ॰ ॰
सुबह सैंय्यां आए घबरई के
तबीयत पूछन लागे अई के
तो मैं बोली घूँघट सरकइ के
के मीठी मीठी
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
हम तो जानें दीवानी तू काहे को रोये रे
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
पिया बोले नदिया ले जाऊँ
हाए॰ ॰ ॰
पिया बोले नदिया ले जाऊँ
मैं तेरा कंचन जी बहलाऊँ
मैं बोली ऊई मैं कैसे जाऊँ
के मीठी मीठी
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
हम तो जानें दीवानी तू काहे को रोये रे
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
पिया ने मेरी एक ना मानी
हाए॰ ॰ ॰
पिया ने मेरी एक ना मानी
पकड़ कर पीहर लै गए जानी
मैं ना ना करती रही दीवानी
के मीठी मीठी
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
हम तो जानें दीवानी तू काहे को रोये रे
ओ मीठी मीठी करेजवा में पीर होय रे
