तारीफ़ करूँ क्या उसकी, जिसने तुम्हे बनाया

One of the interesting things in this song's lyrics is the manner in which the male describes his lover's beauty:

What appreciation shall I show him/her [God], who made you [so beautiful]?

An indirect way of saying to her: "You are beautiful."

लग जा गले के फिर ये रात हो न हो

This song is an interesting way to convey that the relationship has to end. My blogger friend Atul has a greater description of the context of this song.

I encountered this song in a recent episode of यहाँ मैं घर घर खेली. Looks like TV serial producers in India have been making use of past melodies from Bollywood films to suit their stories.

Good business for those owning copyrights on these old songs.

दोस्त दोस्त न रहा, प्यार प्यार न रहा

A man is dejected because of betrayal by his friend.

ज्योत से ज्योत जगाते चलो

The poet writes a very simple set of lyrics to promote universal brotherhood, to suggest actions particularly when we meet the poor, unhappy, under-privileged, etc.

I first heard this song in Kargal, as shown in the map below.
