Aa Palkonmein Aa Sapne Sajaa.....

 Aa Palkonmein Aa, Sapne Sajaa- Lata Mangeshkar- Film Madhbhare Nain 1955-lyrics Shailendra- Music S.D.Burman. 

Madhbhare Nain, released in 1955, had Bina Rai and Kishore Kumar in lead roles. The plot is all about the misunderstanding which could have been cleared by little bit of explanation and plain talks directly. Sham (Kishore Kumar) is a foreign returned youth for whom, his Guardians Ramprasad (Badri Prasad) and Leelavati (Durga Khote) are in search of a suitable bride. However they do not agree on any selected girl. Leelavati has already one girl in mind as a bride, to whom she had met during an election campaign.Her selection is not agreed upon by Ramprasad. On the other hand Ramprasad had selected a girl, who is daughter of his friend Kedarnath. They both often quarrel about each other's choice. 

Caught between two of his dearest relatives, Sham is convinced that he cannot make his choice without offending one of them.He leaves for Darjeeling to let the things cool.During the journey, he meets a girl in the Railway compartment, and is smitten by her beauty and charm. The Girl (Bina Rai), is however not responsive to his wooing. Sham is not discouraged, he continues to woo her in scenic Darjeeling landscape. After initial hesitation, the girl also begins to develop tender feelings towards Sham. They both fall in love. 

The problem however is acceptance of the Girl, by his guardians. Knowing that Sham is at Darjeeling, they come to Darjeeling to take him home. Things would have been simpler, if they know that the girl selected by Ramprasad, Leelavati and Sham is the same...Malti. Meanwhile Kedarnath has sought help of Police to locate his daughter. After many twists in the tale, both Sham and Malti are united. 

Filmed on Bina Rai, this song comes in the film when Malti, totally engulfed in Sham's love is calling for his company. The song the dew drenched stars are singing, is also finding it's place in the deepest chamber of her heart. The stars are burning with desire, and so is her heart which is restless and desolate without the company of her beloved. 

 आ पलकों में आ, सपने सजा 

बेहोश रातों की निंदिया चुरा आ पलकों में आ ... 
 जिस रागिनी को भीगी हुई चांदनी गा रही है 
मेरे धडकते दिल से उसी की सदा आ रही है 
आ पलकों में आ ... 
 यह प्यास कैसी है आकर ये जलते सितारों से पूछ ले 
बेचैनियाँ हर पल मचलती बहारों से पूछ ले 
आ पलकों में आ ... 
Shailendra's lyrics is simple and touchy. S.D. Burman's tune blends superbly with the profound lyrics, to bring forth the pains of separation.In all , the song is one of the best that comes from the SDB-Lata combination.
