Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake

Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake
Chale nahin jaana
O, chale nahin jaana
Ooo chale nahin jaana
Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake
Chale nahin jaana
O, chale nahin jaana
Ooo chale nahin jaana

Jaaoge jaane na doongi, main rasta rok loongi
Jaaoge jaane na doongi, main rasta rok loongi
Haan saiya ke paiya pad jaoongi, roke kahoongi
Haan saiya ke paiya pad jaoongi, roke kahoongi
Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake
Chale nahin jaana
O, chale nahin jaana
Ooo chale nahin jaana

Aahon ke badle aahen lena ji, daga na dena
Aahon ke badle aahen lena ji, daga na dena
Haan nain mare na roye, roye dil yeh kahe na
Haan nain mare na roye, roye dil yeh kahe na
Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake
Chale nahin jaana
O, chale nahin jaana
Ooo chale nahin jaana

Jaane ka naam na lo, rajaji dil baitha jaye
Jaane ka naam na lo, rajaji dil baitha jaye
Haan dekho ji dekho dukhi dil ki pare na haaye
Haan dekho ji dekho dukhi dil ki pare na haaye
Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake
Chale nahin jaana
O, chale nahin jaana
Ooo chale nahin jaana

Movie: Rattan (1944)
Director: M Sadiq
Singer: Zohrabai Ambalewali
Lyricist: D N Madhok
Music Composer: Naushad Ali 

Dina Nath Madhok (D N Madhok) was born on 22 October 1902 in Gujranwala (now in Pakistan). He came to Mumbai in 1931. In a career spanning four decades, he wrote over 2000 songs. 

He was quite prominent during 1940-1960 and worked with all music directors. He was instrumental in bringing composer Naushad to Bollywood. Madhok also wrote screenplays and directed films, such as Baghdad Ka Chor (1934), Mirza Sahiban (1939), and Bilwamangal (1954).

His songs were so well-liked that he came to be known as Mahakavi Madhok. He is credited with making lyrics simpler and easier to comprehend. The song I have chosen to commemorate his birthday, Ankhiyan milake jiya bharmake, is a classic example.
This song, sung by Zohrabai Ambalewali, has simple, endearing lyrics. Naushad has composed a tune based on folk music to match them. ~ S
