Rain Songs: Yeh Neer Kahaan Se Barse

When you think of the music from "Prem Parbat" (1973), the first song that comes to mind is "Yeh dil aur unki nigahon ke saaye". That was a beautiful melody indeed, so popular that it overshadowed other songs from that film. Listen to this gem and enjoy. Jan Nisar Akhtar, the lyricist was a prominent Urdu poet who wrote for Hindi films too, but for today's generation, it might be more relevant to say that he was the father of Javed Akhtar, and the grandfather of Farhan and Zoya Akhtar.

Singer: Lata Mangeshkar
Lyrics: Jan Nisar Akhtar
Music: Jaidev
