Ref. post 14,

The title song “Yoon to hum ne lakh haseen dekhe hain” was written by Sahir Ludhianvi; this song is available in the books of Sahir’s poetry (also availbe in “Kuliyat-e-Sahir” – total collection of Sahir’s poetry). Rest of the songs from film “Tum sa nahin dekha” were written by Majrooh Sultanpuri.

Thanks and best regards.

Saif Hoda,

I also read that “Tumsa Nahi Dekha” was started by Sahir, but completed by Majrooh. I was reading interview from Shammi Kappor ji and he mentioned that “Sahir” and “Devannd” was signed initially. Devanand walked out because of new heroine, and Sahir followed him.

SAHIR WAS REALLY A MAGITIAN AND HAD GREAT STRENGTH OF WORD POWER WHICH HAS COME FROM EXPERIENCES IN HIS LIFE. UNLESS U HAVE EXPERIENCE U CANNOT GET REAL FEEL. HIS SHAYARI IN TALKHIYAN IS JUST UNCOMPARABLE. HIS NON FILMY SHAYARI IS ALSO POPULAR. TALKHIYA GOT PUBLISHED MORETHAN 27 TIMES SO MUCH POPULARITY FOR NON FILMY SHAYARI IS ONLY FOR SAHIR. HE WAS REAL PHILOSOPHER AND ALL HIS SONGS WILL HV SOME OR THE OTHER ADVICE USEFUL FOR US THROUGH OUT HIS LIFE.

I cannot describe Sahir Ludhianvi’s lyrics. I am 55 years old and I have been listening to Hindi music from the day I was born and I can remember all these songs. Not one day has gone by without me listening to Sahirji’s lyrics through the voice of Mohammad Rafi. I think they both formed an incredible duo. Listen to their music and gone is the stress. Well done ‘Guys’.
Love – to you both.

I did dedicate my book of verse WELTSCHMERZ, published 2006 in English language, to Sahir Ludhianavi. While the verse itself is in Sahir tradition and addresses India’s problems particularly, I have also included one poem on Sahir, two translations including Parchhaiyaan in this volume. Of course there are many ways to honor Sahir but mine carries its own flavor a la Ghalib..hai andaze biyan aur! Those interested can obtain the book from Writers Workshop Kolkata or DK Agencies in New Delhi.

I have written at length about Sahir’s art on the website Sahir Ki Kalam se.

Salam to all Rafi lovers,
There are so many beautiful Rafi-Sahir combos. I would like to mention few of them of my choice, which I think are superb. I want my friends like Janab Raju Korti Saheb, Janab Haldar Saheb, Janab AS Murty Saheb, Janab Anmol Singh Saheb, Janab Binu Nair Saheb, Janab Anil Cherian Saheb and all Rafi lovers, to throw some light on these gems. Want to hear from all of you.
1)Ab woh karam karen ki sitam, main nashe me hun- Marine Drive. This is the first combo of Rafi/Sahir and is superb
2) Itani haseen, itani jawan raath kiya karen- Aaj Aur Kal
3)Sab me shamil ho magar, sab se juda lagti ho- Bahu Beti
4)Ham intezar karenge, tera qyamath tak- Bahu Begum
5) Tujhko pukare mera pyar- Neel Kamal
6) Jiyo to aise jiyo, jaise sab tumhara hai- Bahu Beti
7) Barbad-e-muhabbath ki duva saath liye jaa- Laila Majnu
With best regards to Rafi lovers,
Long live Rafi Sahab,
Dr. Khaja Aliuddin

Hello to all music fanatics and specially of Mohammad Rafi followers.Ever since childhood while growing up in India I have listened to Mohammad Rafi’s songs along with other singers, he was my most favourite singer among all the other singers. Three members of my family have been Rafi Sahibs fan for a very ,very long time- first of all my mother then myself and my youngest sister, even today I listen to his songs while being in Canada. I remember Rafi ji on his Birthday- Dec 24th and on his death anniversary as well. May all his fan’s enjoy his melodious and never to be forgotten songs till eternity.
