chandan kaa palanaa

A lori in Hemantda's ever-soothing voice. In the movie, Bharat Bhushan cures Nutan of insomnia with this soft and melodious lori, which only Hemantda's voice could have achieved:). Shabaab was probably Naushad's best too. 15 songs, each one a gem. The movie has this song as a Hemantda solo while all the commercial tapes that I have this song on, has it as a Hemantda-Lata duet. Lyrics are the same.

sangeet hai shakti ishwar ki..har sur mein basey hain raam
raagi ko sunaaye raag madhur...rogi ko miley aaraam

ho~~
chandan ka palna resham ki dori
jhula jhulaaon nindiya ko tori
chandan ka palna

so ja tu aise mori sajaniya
so ja tu aise mori sajaniya
sajiya pe soye jaise dulhaniya
chanda ka teeka maathe lagaaon
taaron ki mala tujhko pihnaaon
taaron ki mala tujhko pihnaaon
tohe sulaaon ga ga ke lori
jhula jhulaaon nindiya ko tori
chandan ka palna...

(in the duet version, hemantda and lata sing the following stanza
together)

unche gagan se koi bulaaye
laayi hain pariyaan dola sajaaye
sajan se milne door chali ja
udke tu nindiya phoor chali ja
udke tu nindiya phoor chali ja
chanda pukaare aaja chakori
jhula jhulaon nindiya ko tori
chandan ka palna...
