Lyrics :-

paas baitho tabeeyat bahal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi
paas baitho tabeeyat bahal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi

dhaar kaajal ki tum aur teekhi karo
maang honthon ki meethi hansi se bharo
zindagi jhoomne par machal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi
paas baitho tabeeyat bahal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi

ham ne maanaa ke chhaayi hai kaali ghataa
gore gaalon se gesoo hataa do zaraa
is andhere mein ik shammaa jal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi
paas baitho tabeeyat bahal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi

gham ne chhedaa hamen, tum na chhedaa karo
jo tumhaare hain un se na pardaa karo
muskuraa do tamannaa nikal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jaayegi
paas baitho tabeeyat bahal jaayegi
maut bhi aa gayi ho to tal jayegi..

About C arjun:-
Forgotten Composers, Unforgettable Melodies (3) -- C Arjun

A snippet from an article by Raju Bharatan on this great singer related to this song...

It was Shivkumar Saroj, the sensitive Radio Ceylon announcer, who drew our attention first to the tuning artistry of another modest composer: C Arjun. When I met C Arjun much later, he told me that he felt very proud that he had at least created a ghazal that could come somewhere near a Madan Mohan composition. I wanted special attention to this my coveted ghazal from my singer but all good singers available were bigger than the film for which I had composed it! revealed Arjun. It was with great hesitation, therefore, that I approached Rafi Saab to render my ghazal, so feelingly written by Indivar. And Rafi Saab, without bothering about the small payment we were in a position to make, said it was one of the best ghazals that had fallen to his lot and he would give it everything that he had.

Rafi certainly gave that C Arjun ghazal everything he had, that is how it came over to us Paas baitho tabiyat behal jaayegi maut bhi aa gayi to hal jaayegi in Punarmilan. This ghazal proves, if proof is needed, that no composer was too small for Rafi as long as the composition was great.


Storyline :-

Dr. Mohan comes from a decent upper-caste Brahman family. He is of marriageable age, and is in love with Shobhna Bakshi. They plan to get married soon. The marriage takes place, and during this process, someone raises a question about Mohan's caste, and when Mohan is asked repeatedly whether this is true, he replies that he does belong to a lower caste - the untouchables. Everyone is shocked, and the marriage is cancelled, leaving Mohan's family to wonder as to why he claims to be an untouchable person.
