Before I decided
to add Mohabbat Ka Haath to my
collection, I hadn’t heard the track as frequently as I’d heard other songs of
the Golden Era, so I wasn’t aware that it was from Howrah Bridge.
While the first
three words obviously mean, “The hand of love”, it’s the next three (Jawaani ka palla) that are undoubtedly interesting.
They can be translated to, “The border of the garment of youth”.
Qamar Jalalabadi
penned this O P Nayyar composition, which was four minutes and three minutes
long and sung by Mohammed Rafi and Asha Bhosle.
