<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Back in the 1950s, for a single mother with a child born out of the wedlock \u2014 the shame and the fear of society\u2019s reaction hung like a Sword of Damocles especially in not so liberal countries like India. The plight of a one such woman is the heart-rending dilemma of Dhool ka Phool<\/em>, a gutsy movie standing apart \u2014 from the period films, family dramas, romantic tales and sob stories \u2014 that populated the screens in those times. And who better to voice the pain of the trapped woman than Sahir?<\/p>\n This distraught mother looks at the tainted face of innocence in her hands and whispers in his ears \u2013<\/p>\n \u0924\u0942 \u092e\u0947\u0930\u0947 \u092a\u094d\u092f\u093e\u0930 \u0915\u093e \u092b\u0942\u0932 \u0939\u0948 Tu mere pyar ka phool hai The song begins by establishing the \u201cfait accompli<\/em>\u201d \u2014 the single mother has braved the first hurdle. She has given birth to the child! In many societies, the moral police and the keepers of faith (all self-appointed, of course) have readymade, time-tested solutions for the unwed mother. The newborn is hurriedly given up for adoption or, abandoned in an open space or a doorstep, or left in a jungle to be a feast for the wild beasts.<\/p>\n But this woman, now having repulsed the pressures to deny her, her motherhood, is beset with a huge challenge \u2014 how to bring up her child. She thinks of the baggage the child has to carry all his life.<\/p>\n \u092e\u0947\u0930\u0940 \u092c\u0926\u0928\u093e\u092e\u0940 \u0924\u0947\u0930\u0947 \u0938\u093e\u0925 \u092a\u0932\u0947\u0917\u0940, \u0938\u093e\u0925 \u092a\u0932\u0947\u0917\u0940 Meri badnaami tere sath palegi My infamy will be a constant companion, my child, all your life. It will never fade, will grow like a poisonous weed. The taunts hurled at you will make my womb shrivel with shame, rage with the fire of guilt.<\/p>\n \u0915\u093e\u0901\u091f\u094b\u0902 \u092d\u0930\u0947 \u0939\u0948\u0902 \u0938\u092c \u0930\u093e\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0947 Kaanton bhare hain sab raaste It is a path strewn with thorns. My child, who will lift you up and protect you from the hurt and the distress that awaits you, I wonder and I grieve!<\/p>\n \u092a\u0942\u091b\u0947\u0917\u093e \u0915\u094b\u0908 \u0924\u094b \u0915\u093f\u0938\u0947 \u092c\u093e\u092a \u0915\u0939\u0947\u0917\u093e \u092c\u0928\u0915\u0947 \u0930\u0939\u0947\u0917\u0940 \u0936\u0930\u094d\u092e\u093f\u0902\u0926\u0917\u0940 \u0924\u0947\u0930\u0940 \u095b\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0917\u0940 Puchhega koyi to kise baap kahega Banke rahegi sharmindagi teri zindagi<\/em> What will you answer to those who enquire about your father? His whereabouts, his absence? The world will readily castigate you as a discarded outcome of a shameful liaison. Your life will be a story of shame spent dodging the sling-shots of social martinets. The moral brigade will rise as one, putting aside their own execrable follies to target you. I have suckled you at my breast and fed you milk, my child, but tomorrow you will have to survive the venom that awaits you!<\/p>\n Unlike many film songs that enhance their appeal by moving outdoors, this one stays indoors. In a dank, cheerless room where no streak of light enters, no gust of wind blows in. Nothing that could come in the way of the guftagu<\/em> between the infant, and his determined mother. Even the elements stay away, as the two together, map their hazy, uncertain future.<\/p>\n Mala Sinha puts in a surprisingly emotional performance, with love, helplessness, and rage reflected on her face as the movie progresses. A great takeaway from her Pyaasa<\/em> experience, perhaps!<\/p>\n Tu mere pyar ka phool hai<\/strong><\/em> (Dhool Ka Phool<\/em>, 1959) N Dutta \/ Sahir Ludhianvi \/ Lata Mangeshkar<\/span><\/p>\n
