R D Burman composed over 1700 songs in Hindi movies. Only 19 of these songs had the voice of Mukesh in them.
When I came across this figure yesterday (it is mentioned in the book -R D Burman- the man the music), I looked in the blog and also searched the list of R D Burman songs in HFGK.
Following is the list of Mukesh songs composed by R D Burman:
| Movie | Year of release | Song | Singer | Lyricist | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Teesra Kaun | 1965 | Pyaar Ka fasaana | Mukesh, Lata | Anand Bakshi | |
| Kati Patang | 1970 | Jis gali mein tera ghar na ho baalma | Mukesh | Anand Bakshi | |
| Puraskaar | 1970 | Ae meri jaan chaand sa gora mukhda | Mukesh, Asha Bhonsle | S H Bihari | |
| Puraskaar | 1970 | Nateeja hamaari muhabbat ka | Mukesh, Asha Bhonsle | S H Bihari | |
| Hangaama | 1971 | Sooraj se jo kiran ka naata | Mukesh, Lata | Anjaan | |
| Chhaliya | 1973 | Zindagi mein aap aaye | Mukesh, Vani Jairam | Rajinder Krishan | |
| Raja Rani | 1973 | Haan to main kya keh raha thha | Lata, Mukesh, Rajesh Khanna | Anand Bakshi | |
| Phir Kab Milogi | 1974 | Kahin karti hogi wo mera intezaar | Mukesh, Lata | Majrooh Sultanpuri | |
| Dharam Karam | 1975 | Ik din bik jaayega | part (i) Mukesh, chorus, part (ii)Mukesh, Sushma Shreshtha, part (iii)Mukesh, Kishore Kumar, Sushma Shreshtha, chorus |
Majrooh Sultanpuri | Three parts, counted as three songs |
| Dharam Karam | 1975 | Tere hamsafar geet hain tere | Mukesh, Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle, chorus | Majrooh Sultanpuri | |
| Chaandi Sona | 1977 | Tujhe bhool ke maati ki putli par | Mukesh | Majrooh Sultanpuri | Three parts, counted as three songs, not yet discussed in the blog |
| Karm | 1977 | Karm kaho kismat kaho | Mukesh | Bharat Vyas | Another two line song- Karm kare qismat bane, is counted as a separate song |
| Mukti | 1977 | Lalla lalla lorie | Mukesh | Anand Bakshi | |
| Mukti | 1977 | suhaani chaandni raaten hamen sone nahin detin | Mukesh | Anand Bakshi | |
| Naukri | 1978 | Ooper jaake yaad aayi neeche ki baaten | Mukesh, Chorus | Anand Bakshi |
Most Mukesh-R D Burman songs have already been discussed in the blog. only the songs of “Karm” (1977) and “Chaandi Sona”(1977) remain to be discussed.
Here is the Mukesh song (s) from “Karm”(1977). This song is penned by Bharat Vyas. The last two lines beginning from “karm kare qismat bane..” is the second part of the song and is counted as another song. Thus Mukesh gets credited for singing two songs in this movie.
After this song, “Chaandi Sona”(1977) song will be the only Mukesh R D Burman song that has not yet been covered in the blog.
PS-Muvys, as well as Mr Harish Raghuwanshi have pointed out that Naukri(1978) too had a Mukesh song. My thanks to them both for pointing it out. Now I have updated the table. So the songs of “Chaandi Sona”(1977) and “Naukri”(1978) are the only Mukesh-R D Burman songs missing from the blog as of now.

karm kaho
qismat kaho o o
chaahe kaho taqdeer eer
pehle banaa praarabdh aur
paachhe banaa shareer eer
karm ki gathdi laad ke
jag mein phire insaan
jaisaa kare vaisaa bhare
vidhi kaa yahi vidhaan
aa aa aaa
hmm hmm hmm hmm

karm kare qismat bane ae ae
jeevan kaa ye maram
praani tere haath mein aen
teraa apnaa karam am

Suhani Chandni Raatein from Mukti has a second version as well. Above table is also missing Raj Kapoor song from Naukari (1978). So adding these two, will take the total of Mukesh/RDB songs to 21.
