In the search of a long forgotton song..

Here, I'm talking about a song I heard most, aired on Jaimala program of Vividh Bharathi. I've no clue of what's the film, who composed, who rendered, who enacted. What's worse I can't even recollect the lyrics of the song. And I never watched this song.

All I remember is that (my assumptions included), that the song's situation is the budding romance of a newly wed couple. Or soon to be tied in a knot. He supposedly closes her eyes from behind and asks her to guess who it is. For which she replies,

"hum naam kaise le unkaa, joh dil mein rahthe har dum" or something similar.

As far as I recollect, she actually starts as "You come and close my eyes stealthily, and I know its you, but how can I name the one so close to my heart."

I know, I helped you least. But if you're an ardent fan of old hindi filmy songs, this shouldn't be tough. Any clue?

"chhoopaakar meree aankhon ko, wo poochhe kaun hain jee hum
main kaise naam loo unakaa, jo dil mein rahate hain haradam

naa jab tak dekh le wo dil to kaise ayetabaar aaye
tumhaare is adaa par bhee, humaare dil ko pyaar aaye
tumhaaree ye shikaayat bhee mohabbat se naheen hain kam

nahee hum yoo naa maanenge, to kaise tum ko samazaaye
dikhaa do dil humei apanaa, kahaa se dil ko hum laaye
ke de rakhaa wo tum ko, dikhaa sakate hain kaise hum

diyaa thaa kisaliye bolo, amaanat hee tumhaaree thee
ye jab tak paas thaa apane, ajab see bekaraaree thee
chalo chhodo geele shikawe, huaa hain chaand bhee madhyam"

Thank you for reminding of an enchanting song. Thank you Yogi for enriching with the complete lyric.
Though not the same, i've written similar feelings in one of my stories, "Maro Konam", as the starting lines. The story was published in Andhra Bhoomi monthly (Oct 2000). You may have a look at it here : http://murtyds.literature.googlepages.com/maro_konam.pdf
