Doley jhumka moraa
Posted on: March 26, 2011
I could have sworn that I had this category called “Jhumka” song in this blog, but I was wrong. I had “ghunghroo” catgory, but not “jhumka” category which is clearly an oversight on my part.
Now I have seen the errors of my ways and made amends by introducing this tag. I can readily think of a couple of songs that belong to this category. They are Jhumka gira re Bareli ke bazaar me(Mera Saaya) and Gir gaya jhumka girne do(Jugnu)(1973).
Here is another “jhumka” song that belonged to the same era. Like the other “jhumka” songs, I listened to this song without really knowing any details of this song. The song was obviously sung by Asha Bhonsle, but that is all that I knew about this song.
If I am asked to guess the music director, I must say that I would guess it to be Laxmikant Pyarelal. The music is so unmistakably Laxmikant Pyarelal. But it will come as a great surprise to many (including I ) that this song is composed not by Laxmikant Pyarelal but by Sapan Jagmohan. And the movie is not “Mera Gaaon Mera Desh” or any such well known movie but it is “Do Raahaa” (1971), which was a B R Ishara (and therefore a “controversial” “A” certificate movie).
This song is sung by Asha Bhonsle, as mentioned above and it is picturised on Radha Saluja and anil Dhawan. Indeewar is the lyricist.
I discovered all these details about this “jhumka” song only just recently, and it is a coincidence that Prakashchandra, a regular of this blog also gave a farmaish for this song.
Here is this lovely (and somewhat lesser known) “jhumka” song from my younger days.

Lyrics
doley jhumka moraa
ho doley jhumka moraa
boly pyaaraa kangnaa
koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
ho koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
doly jhumka moraa
boley pyaaraa kangnaa
koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
ho koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
laakhon mein ek hai
dil ka bhi nek hai
uspe anokhi adaa
achche usool hain
baaten bhi phool hain
baaton se chhalke wafaa
jaisa mera yaar hai dildaar hai
aji aisa koi kahaan
doley jhumka moraa
ho doley jhumka moraa
boley pyaaraa kangnaa
koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
ho koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
dekhe koi maal dhan
dekhe koi tan badan
maine to dekha hai man
uski ho jaaungi
usmein kho jaaungi
jaise sajan(?) mein pawan
ik pal door ho majboor ho
aisa ho madhur milan
ho doley jhumka moraa
ho doley jhumka moraa
boley pyaaraa kangnaa
koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
ho koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
ho doley jhumka moraa
boley pyaaraa kangnaa
koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa
ho koi aayegaa
aaj morey angnaa

@ Atul ji – nice post !!Listening this song after many years (after the ‘radio’ days ), and thanks to Pradeep ji also, its because of the Yippee project that we get to visit the earlier posts and to revive the magic.
– the earlier link is not working, hence new link is given below.
– and the ‘jaise sajan(?)’ is ‘jaise gagan mein pawan’, so kindly correct
please.
and yes surely I thought it was composed by LP.
