Rafi and Lata renD(he)ered this

As playback singers, there’s no doubt about the fact that Mohammed Rafi and Lata Mangeshkar have always been right on the mo(o)ney, and Dheere Dheere Chal Chand Gagan Mein, their duet from Love Marriage, which released in 1959, was no exception.

The next line of the track, which could be translated to, “Dear moon, go slowly in the sky”, was, “Kahin dhal na jaaye raat, toot na jaaye sapne” (which could be translated to, “The night shouldn’t end and the dreams shouldn’t be shattered.”)

It was penned by Hasrat Jaipuri and composed by Shankar Jaikishan.
