Jawaani agar haaye
Posted on: April 4, 2013
“Neelkamal” (1947) was directed by Kidar Sharma. He had signed up Raj Kapoor, then working as his third assistant (viz clap boy) as the hero of this movie. When Raj Kapoor enquired which heroine was being signed up opposite him, Kidar Sharma asked him if he had any specific choice. Raj Kapoor named Madhubala who was then signed up for the movie.
This movie was the debut for both of them in grown up roles.
Two better known songs from this movie have been discussed in the past. Here is a lesser known song from the movie. This song is a duet which is sung by Rajkumari and Hamida Bano who sing the entire song in tandem. The song is picturised on Raj Kapoor and Begam Para with two ladies (I am unable to identify them) lip syncing this song.
Kidar Sharma is the lyricist. Music is composed by Snehal Bhatkar.

Lyrics
jawaani agar haaye
jawaani agar
hook dil ki hai baaye
jawaani agar
hook dil ki hai baaye
jawaani agar
nazar ladte ladte
nazar ladte ladte
agar muskuraaye
nazar ladte ladte
nazar ladte ladte
agar muskuraaye
khayaalon ki duniya mein
unko basaakar
khayaalon ki duniya mein
unko basaakar
agar sharm se koi
gardan jhukaaye
gardan jhukaaye
to samjho muhabbat ki ye ae ae ae ibteda hai ae ae
to samjho muhabbat ki ye ae ae ibteda hai ae
jawaani agar
agar chupke chupke aansoo bahaaye
agar baat dil ki dil se chupaaye
agar chupke chupke aansoo bahaaye
agar baat dil ki dil se chupaaye
liye chand sahmi hui hansraton ko
liye chand sahmi hui hansraton ko
agar apni barbaad duniya basaaye
duniya basaaye
to samjho
muhabbat ki ye ae ae inteha hai ae ae
to samjho
muhabbat ki ye ae ae inteha hai ae ae
jo wo ibteda thhi
to ye ae ae inteha hai
