Rememberance of things past--12

One of the best Indian film songs ever.
This one, from "Anpadh" is quite minimalistic--very few instruments to back up the singer, and no bizarre set changes or anything.  It is one of those songs that makes me feel terrible at not having gained anything more than a basic, survival-level, knowledge of Hindi.  So, even if the translation is crude, it helps, a lot.
And, all the way from 1962--even before I was born :)
