Prayer
Music channels have been showing a prayer from the movie Swadesh. 'Pal Pal Hai Bhaari', with Ram Leela background is a commendable attempt in this age. There was 'O Palanharey' in Lagaan as well which fitted with the mood of the situation.
The trend of prayers in movies was, in a way, 'rejuvenated' by Lata's magnificent rendering of 'Ek Tu Hi Bharosa Ek Tu Hi Sahara' in Anil Kapoor's Pukar. Earlier, every third movie use to have a prayer.
'Tu Pyar Ka Saagar' from the movie Seema, sung beautifully by Manna De, makes the part of my earliest memories. 'Allah Tero Naam' from Hum Dono is a jewel in Lata's crown. Rafi graced 'Sukh Ke Sab Sathi' in Gopi.
One of my all time favourites is Guddi's 'Humko Man Ki Shakti Dena', sung by Vani Jairam, written by Rajkamal and composed by Bhajan specialist Vasant Desai. The prayer-cum-song which continues to appeal me is 'Itni Shakti Hamein Dena Daata' from the movie Ankush.
But the mother of all prayers and my all time favourite is the one and only - 'Ai Malik Tere Bande Hum' from V.Shantaram's Do Ankhen Barah Haath, written by Bharat Vyas and set to music by, who else, Vasant Desai. Both the versions of Lata and Manna De are great to hear, and often bring tears.
Here are the lyrics to relive this master piece.
Aai Malik Tere Bande Hum, Aise Ho Hamaare Karam
Nekii Par Chalen, Aur Badi Se Talen
Taaki Hanste Huye Nikale Dum
Jab Zulamon Ka Ho Saamnaa, Tab Tu Hi Hamein Thaamnaa
Vo Buraai Karen, Hum Bhalaai Bharen
Nahin Badale Ki Ho Kaamnaa
Badh Uthe Pyaar Ka Har Kadam
Aur Mite Bair Ka Ye Bharam
Neki Par Chalen, Aur Badi Se Talen
Taaki Hanste Huye Nikale Dum
Badaa Kamazor Hai Aadami, Abhi Laakhon Hain Isamein Kamin
Par Tuu Jo Khadaa, Hai Dayalu Bada
Teri Kirpaa Se Dharti Thami
Diyaa Tuney Hamein Jab Janam
Tuu Hi Jjhelegaa Hum Sabke Gam
Neki Par Chalen, Aur Badi Se Talen
Taaki Hanste Huye Nikale Dum
Ye Andhera Ghana Chhaa Raha, Tera Insaan Ghabaraa Rahaa
Ho Rahaa Bekhabar, Kuch Na Aataa Nazar
Sukh Ka Suraj Chhupaa Jaa Rahaa
Hai Teri Roshani Mein Vo Dam
Jo Amaavas Ko Kar De Poonam
Neki Par Chalen, Aur Badi Se Talen
Taaki Hanste Huye Nikale Dum
