        Song: Hume Duniya Ko Dil Ke Zakhm Dilkhalaana Nahi Aata
                Tadap Lete Hain Lekin, Dil Ko Tadpaana Nahi Aata

        Film:   Aadhi Raat (1950)
        Music:  Pt. Husnalal Bhagatram
        Lyrics: Asad Bhopali
        Singer: Mohammad Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar
        *ing:   ?

Usually Pt. Husnalal Bhagatram songs  are  predictable.  Although
highly  enjoyable  they are repetitive. But to their credit, they
have composed songs in various styles too. This song, is  a  case
where tune is sort of new and fresh. Rafi and Lata are very sweet
here.

My favourite from the movie is Lata song penned by Asad Bhopali

        Dil Hi To Hai Tadap Gaya, Dard Se Bhar Na Aye Kyun,  Aaye
Kyun
        Royenge Hum Hazaar Baar, Koi  Hume  Sataaye  Kyun  Sataye
Kyun

Effect of sarangi, flute and sitar is striking.

Then there are two more  Lata  solos,  I  have  heard  which  are
standard Pt. Husnlal Bhagatram tunes:

        Ban Ke Suhagan Rahi Abhaagan

and
        Rona Hi Kikhaa Tha Kismat Me, Ham Geet Khushe Ke  Gaa  Na
Sake

Second one is better than first  one.  Respective  lyricists  are
Sarshar Sailani and Khumar Barabanki.
