तुम्हरे दर्शन का नैना तरस गए हो

'Tumhre Darshan Ka Naina Taras Gaye Ho' is the most cherished surviving song from Prarthana (1943), sung by Jahanara Kajjan to Saraswati Devi's composition. A yearning prayer for a glimpse of the beloved or the divine, it is rendered in a dadra-style, crisp thumri manner over the early-1940s' light film orchestration.

Sources describe this number as a crisp, dadra-style thumri rooted in raag Gaur Malhar, dressed in the typical filmy orchestration of the early 1940s. Saraswati Devi's setting keeps the raag's monsoon-devotional colour while shaping it into a compact film song — one of the ten distinct raags across the film's score.
