The interplay of light and darkness, clouds and the sun, the serenity of sitting by the river and watching it flow and the spirit of universality in the lyrics! absolutely brilliant!

This song is written by Gulzar not Prem Dhawan. Prem Dhawan wrote other
famous song "ae mere pyare watan"

Vikas Sharma on April 22, 2009
There are many doubts about the writer of this song. Though it sounds like
Gulzar's writings. I checked the numberings in the original movie itself
and concluded that the lyricist is Prem Dhawan. Others may be true, I am
not sure about my conclsions.

Excellent! I've been hunting for this song for very long. Thanks so much :)

rajabundela on July 23, 2010
It's undoubtedly a Gulzar song. Ya Kurban and Ae mere pyaare watan were
Prem Dhawan's.

roganjosh2008 on September 12, 2010
The original folk song was composed by Abbas Uddin - its a Bhatiali Bengali song.

Rest is all known.

@vishwadtanha 'ae mere pyare watan' was wriiten by Bahadur Shah Zafar when
he was banished to Burma by the britishers.

Rajesh Kochhar on February 15, 2011
@vishktl When Kabuliwala was made, Gulzar had not yet entered the Bombay
film scene. His first film was Bandini.

Reshma Das on April 16, 2011
lovely song.beautifully sang by manna dey ji.

Amitabha Das on June 25, 2011
@reshma211989 . Not Manna Dey, this is sung by Hemant Kumar!

Reshma Das on January 24, 2012
@dasamitabha ...ohkk...hmm..bt awazz to unki hi lg rhi h..mmm...koi

Sushant Chaudhary on April 27, 2012
Gulzar? Are you kidding me? This movie is WAAY to old for Gulzar to be
maturely writing lyrics.

MrShrivastava87 on May 16, 2012
a wonderful song.what a gr8 composition by salil da...all songs are writen by gulzar except the song ae mere pyare watan which was writen by prem dhawan...

Bhagu Mordani on May 20, 2012
Gulzar's Debut Film Was Bandini (1963) & Kabuliwala (1966) Song Is Penned
By Gulzar Only...!!

abhijit mukherjee on July 08, 2012
This is salil chowdhury classic. Not SD Burman

MyKaempfer on September 05, 2012
There is no doubt at all regarding the lyricist of this song. This song
"Ganga aaye kahan se" was written by Gulzar. The song "Aay mere pyare
watan" was written by Prem Dhawan.

MyKaempfer on September 05, 2012
Not at all !!! The song was composed by Salil Chowdhury.

Raghav Grover on January 17, 2013
Let's just stop arguing about who should be credited for this song, and
just enjoy these 4 and a half minutes of sheer beauty. :)

jayant krishnaji Joshi on January 27, 2013
Whoever the music director be, Hemant Kumar has given his 100% for this
song and I liked the superb acting of the master actor Shri Balraj Sahani.
The story of this film was written undoubtedly by Ravindranath Tagore. I
could not remember the other actor's name in this clip, but the dialogues
at the end are heart rendering and plainly explaining the meaning of this
song. I do not know whether they are from Ravindranath's novel or written
by someone else.

Vijay Datta on February 04, 2013
Simply superb ! The song carries all the testimony of Hemantda's stature
and recognition as all time great.

भले ही गीत गंगा नदी को आधार बनाकर लिखा गया हो, लेकिन अगर ग़ौर करें तो
पायेंगे कि इसके पीछे कई दार्शनिक बातें छुपी हुई हैं। इंसान की तुलना नदी से
की गयी है; यह कोई नहीं जानता कि इंसान कहाँ से आता है और कहाँ उसकी तक़दीर
उसे ले जायेगी। तमाम ख़ुशियों और दुख तक़लीफ़ों से गुज़रते हुए वह एक दिन अपने
अंजाम तक पहुँच ही जाता है। ज़िंदगी की इस सच्चाई को गुलज़ार साहब ने इस सादगी
और सरलता से प्रस्तुत किया है कि गीत को सुनते हुए हम उसकी धारा में जैसे बहते
चले जाते हैं। और हेमन्त दा की आवाज़ के तो क्या कहने, उनकी गम्भीर और
दार्शनिक, लेकिन कोमल आवाज़ में यह गीत बेहद सुंदर बन पड़ा
है..
