In the movie, "Slumdog Millionare", Sant Surdas is given credit for
this song. Although similar sentiments have been expressed in Sur
bhajans, this song from the movie Narsi Bhagat could be penned by the
lyricist Gopal Singh Nepali.

However, smriti.com website (http://smriti.com/hindi-songs/darashan-do-
ghanashyaam-naath-morii-ankhiyaan-
pyaasii-re-utf8) gives credit to Narasi Mehta.

Does anyone have any credible source to shed some light?

Best regards

You are right. The song songs with " arre dil mere man" and album is
"meera soor kabira".
Interesting day as I came across "meera soor kabira" twice,
first on TV and then in "slumdogmillionare" where one of the
questions is -
Who wrote darshan do ghanshyam ?
with all above three and Tulsidas as choices

Darshan do ghanshyam nath...is written by Gopal Singh Nepali for the
movie....narsi bhagat and not by soordas or nasrsinh mehta.

while narsinh mehta wrote in his native language, the original written
by soordasji was.....akhiyaan hari darsan ki pyaasi.

Son of Mr. G. S. Nepali missed a point by stating that his father's name
should have been included in the lits of answers. Fact is that
correct answer had to be a poem written by Surdas as the whole premise
of question about blind.

Only in India one can be a millionare by giving wrong answer.
Hence the movie with such a flaw should not be worthy of Oscar. Oh well.
Exxcitement of desis over movie winning oscar just goes to show
gratification
of getting a certification by shwet twacha.

Gentleman:
I have this record N52098 of Narsi Bhagat by Hemant/Manna Dey/Sudha -
Part I, in my library. Though G.S Nepali has penned the lyrics for
THAT FILM, the song in question is 'paramparik' and NOT CREDITED to
G.S.Nepali. No record was issued for Part II.
