“Man Mein Teri Yaad Basi” is a rare and beautiful melody from the 1949 film Bhedi Bungla. Composed by P. Ramakant with lyrics by Ehsan Rizvi, this song belongs to the era where Lata Mangeshkar was transitioning from a budding singer into the definitive voice of Indian cinema.
The track is characterized by its simple, heartfelt orchestration and Lata’s youthful, clear soprano. It captures the essence of early Bollywood romanticism—expressing a world of dreams and love through poetic metaphors like the “garden of hope” (Aasha ki bagiya). While Bhedi Bungla was a mystery-thriller (as the name suggests), this song provided the essential melodic relief that became a hallmark of early Indian talkies.

Man men teri yaad basi lyrics :
Man mein teri yaad basi
Aankho mein hai pyar basa
Man mein teri yaad basi
Aankho mein hai pyar basa
Aaj mein sapno mein hai
Prem ka sansar basa
Man mein teri yaad basi
Aasha ki bagiya mein
Naye naye phool khile
Naina sarma hi gaye
Do dil jo has ke mile
Basti mein armano ki
Preet ka gulzar basa
Aaj mein sapno mein hai
Perm ka sansar basa
Man mein teri yaad basi
Najuk sa mora jiya
Yad kare piya piya
Najuk sa mora jiya
Yad kare piya piya
Dars bhare naino ne mujhko
Jag mein haye badnam kiya
Dars bhare naino ne mujhko
Jag mein haye badnam kiya
Lakh nahi nahi kahun
Lakh nahi nahi kahun
Nahi mein ikrar basa
Aaj meinre sapno mein hai
Perm ka sansar basa
Man mein teri yaad basi.
