“Shahanshah” (1953) was directed by Amiya Chakraborty for G P Productions, Bombay. The movie had Kamini Kaushal, Ranjan, K N Singh, Achala Sachdev, Shakeela, Agha, Mukri, Jagdish Kamal, Rajan Kapoor, Ramesh sippy, Baby Usha, Cuckoo, Mariana Lisbeth, Neeru, Kishu etc in it.
Seven songs from this obscure movie have been discussed in the past.
Here is the eighth song from this movie.
This song is sung by Manna Dey and chorus. Sahir Ludhianvi is the lyricist. Music is composed by S D Burman.
Only the audio of this song is available. From the sounds of it, the song appears to be a martial song where the leader of a group is exhorting his followers to break their shackles and defeat their tormentors. It sounds like a song sung while marching in a formation. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.

Faaqa-kashon
tumhe jeena hai to
marne ki saugandh kha kar uthho
Faaqa-kashon

Oonche mahal tharraa uthhen
Gusse mein yoon talmalaa kar uthho

Maidaan mein jhanda uthhaaye huye
Sheron ke dal

Baazoo hain ye aajmaaye huye
