One of my favourite theme is 'life & earthly world'. I also  like
songs  that  brings  message  of  happyness. Next few songs, will
cover the first theme.

        Song: Jis Ko Tune Ghar Samjhaa Ye,  Duniya  Musafirkhaana
Hai
                Ik Din Saab Ko Baari Baari Chhod Isko Jaana Hai

        Film:   Surang (1953)
        Music:  Pt. Shivramkrishna
        Lyrics: Shevan Rizvi
        Singer: Manna De, Sulochana Kadam
        *ing:   ?

I suppose, this must be a famous song of Surang. It's  sung  low,
with  light  orchestration.  Brings  out  good  amount of melody.
Sulochana Kadam and Manna De, both, sound  very  sweet.  I  find,
Sulochana  Kadam's  voice more refined and mature than in Dhholak
(1950).

Film also has one good Manna solo, which is an item  of  showcase
in  Manna's  repertoire,  for  it's a song of different category.
Different from those semi- classical and folk stuff. A song, that
one  would  associate  with  Rafi/Talat/  Mukesh/Hemant's  voice,
usually

        Chal Ai Dil-E-Majboor, Is Zulm Ki Duniyaa Se  Bahut  Door
....

Manna does a good  job at  this.  I  would  say,  he  just  about
succeeds  in  delivering  feelings/emotions. Nevertheless, a must
song for a Manna-da fan.

Film also has two (?) Lata solos. I have heard only one  'Chhalke
Na Gam Ke Pyaale, Piye Jaa'. Lata, spreads her magic through this
nice number.
