" Mere Sajan Hain us paar " is a climactic song in Flim Bandini sung by S. D. Burman himself. Bimal Roy is a very creative filmmaker he used symbolism in many shots in this film, so the lyricist Shailendra in his words also. This song picturized very well with the words showing dilemma of the character played by Nutan. Shalendra used word Manjhi that means Boater it sounds similar to maazi which used for Past in Urdu poetry so the listener can take both the meaning and that is the beauty of this song. Plus the superb S. D. Burman whose melodies music and his husky sound take this song to another level.
 

Lyrics:

O re manjhi o re manjhi oo ooo mere manjhi

Mere saajan hain us paar, main man maar, hun is paar
O mere manjhi, abaki baar, le chal paar, le chal paar
Mere saajan hain us paar, main man maar, hun is paar
O mere majhi, abaki baar, le chal paar, le chal paar
Mere saajan hain us paar

Ho man ki kitab se tu, mera naam hi meeta dena
Gun to na tha koi bhi, avagun mere bhula dena
Ho man ki kitab se tu, mera naam hi meeta dena
Gun to na tha koi bhi, avagun mere bhula dena
Mujhako teri bida ka
Mujhako teri bida ka mar ke bhi rahata itazar
Mere saajan hain us paar, main man maar, hun is paar
O mere manjhi, abaki baar, le chal paar, le chal paar
Mere saajan hain us paar

Mat khel jal jayegi, kahati hain aag mere man ki
Mat khel mat khel jal jayegi, kahati hain aag mere man ki
Mai bandini piyaa ki chir sagini hun saajan ki
Mera khichati hain aanchal
Mera khichati hain aanchal man meet teri har pukar
Mere sajan hain us paar
O re manjhi o re manjhi oo ooo mere manjhi

Mere sajan hain us paar.....
