Percy Bysshe Shelley : Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.
'Hai sabse madhur wo geet jinhe hum dard ke sur mein gate hain'
Shailendra ki likhi panktiyan. Shelley se prerit.
Thread is dedicated to all time great top songs of HFM. We will include few personal
choices too. Starting with an immortal melody by Kundan Lal Saigal.
1) Haye kis but ki mohabbat mein
Film: My sister
MD: Pankaj Mallick
Singer: KL Saigal
Specs:160/44.1 3.18 Min
[attachmentid=195504]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 Diya to jala sab raat re balam
Singer: CH Atma
Film: Dhake ki malmal
MD: OP Nayyar
Specs:128/44.1 3.26 Min
[attachmentid=195501]
Fans interested in sad songs are invited to discuss sad songs here.
Next from my list is
Hayo Rabba Kaisi Ye Yaara Di Yaari
Song is not a popular one, neither it is much liked by old music fans.
Number of reasons for it, singer's voice, preferences and choices of particular voices,
MD etc etc.
Somehow, I started liking it. Kab aur kaise nahin pata. Few incidents of one's life play
role in such preferences.
Singer: Kanchan
Film: Hadsa
MD: Kalyanji Anandji
Specs: 128/44.1 4.58 Min
[attachmentid=195503]
3. Too rootha(sad)
Singer: Kishore Kumar
Film: Yarana
MD: Rajesh Roshan
Specs: 128/44.1 3.07 Min
A song much liked by most of Kishore Fans.
Picturisation is beautiful. Few of moments of celluloid where
Amitabh made all dry eyes watery.
[attachmentid=195507]
Next:
From Rajesh Roshan Stable. Mehmood emoted exceptionally well on the screen.
Aa ji ri nindiya too aa
Singer: Kishore and Lata
Film: Kunwara Baap
MD: Rajesh Roshan
Specs: 128/44.1 6.44 Min
[attachmentid=195513]
Next
Aaj socha to ansoo bhar aaye
Film: Hanste Zakhm
Singer: Lata Mangeshkar
MD: Madan Mohan
Specs: 160 Kbps/44.1 6.13 Min
[attachmentid=275596]
[attachmentid=195515]
As per info available, singer started crying during the recording.
Any sensitive person would faint after listening to it three times in a row.
A deep melancoly melody by Madan Mohan.
Next song in the series is
Film: Jaan Hazir Hai
Singer: Dilraj Kaur
MD: Jai K Parte/Porte
Song courtsey-yob
Specs: 128 Kbps/ 3.21 Min
[attachmentid=269069]
Adding to the list a great rendition By Manna Dey.
Sur na saje kya gaoon main
Film: Basant Bahar.
MD: Shankar Jaikishan
Specs: 128 Kbps/4.00 Min
Probably MD selected him for he was the best choice available to
sing pure classical songs in films. Song starts with a high scale alaap
which can't be imagined in any other singer's voice, IMO. A little bit element
of strain on vocal chords of Manna is evident, which would have sounded
horrible in any other's voice. He glided through variations of the song with
ease which shows how skilled singer he was. Unlike common compositions
most of the lines of the song start at high scale and end at lower notes which
make it unique.
Listen to the lines of antara -"Sangeet man ko pankh lagaye" and check for the
variations in it.
[attachmentid=269077]
Khayym has enriched treausre of HFM with some soulful
and stirring compositions like Ae dil e nadaan-Razia Sultan,
Sham-e-gham ki kasam-Talat Mehmood, Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein
khayal aata hai-Mukesh, Main pal do pal ka shayar hoon.
A 5 star rated sad song from Khayyam is here:
Jo hum pe gujarti hai
Singer: Suman Kalyanpur
Film: Shagoon/ShagunMohabbat isko kehte hain
Specs: 160Kbps/4.17 Min
[attachmentid=269123]
Another sad song from Shagoon. Most of the fans prefer
this one over the previous one. Video of the song under is
definitely better.
Bujha diye hain khud apne hathon
Singer: Suman kalyanpur
MD: Khayyam
[attachmentid=269152]
Interesting topic BCji. Will contribute too soon.
Just now happened to see this thread and some interesting conversations on the first page.
IMHO, no talk on sad songs can be complete without songs of Talat Mahmood sahab. In fact the song mentioned in the very first post ("Hain sab se madhur woh geet jinhen hum dard ke sur mein gaate hain") is sung by Talat sahab.
Be it Anilda (Talat's favorite composer), or Burmanda (who rarely used him) or SJ sahab (again lesser songs) or an occassional OPN, Talat sahab invariably gave new life to melodious sad songs.
Thanks Sukesh. Correction is done.
how about.....aaj aur kal se....maut kitni bhi sangdil ho magar..zindagi se to meherbaan hogi
asha
yumm yummm
mujhe gale se lagaa lo...the solo..asha...aaj aur kal
sigh..again...yum
A thread on "Top Sad Songs of HFM" and so less of Lata Uh-uh...not done !
Here are *some* of my favorites:
Uthaayeja Unke Sitam (Andaz), Woh To Chale Gaye Aye Dil (Sangdil), Tum Kya Jaano Tumhari Yaad Mein (Shin Shinaki Bubla Boo), Jaane Waale Se Mulaqaat (Amar), Ye Zindagi Usiki Hai (Anarkali).
For Asha, my favorite sad song is Main Jab Bhi Akeli Hoti (Dharmputra).
For KK, I will pick something like Badi Sooni Sooni Hai (Mili)
No Rafi for me
Warm regards,
Saksham
what about.....TU MERE PYAAR KA PHOOL YA....YA MERI BHOOL HAI
lata
dhool ka phool

Thanks a lot Saksham!
Interesting thread. I assume this perheps a thread of sad songs by
singers other than Mukesh. He was the king of tragedy songs although
he sang his share of romantic and comedy songs.
Just an observation no offence to other singers.
This one has always pulled a string on my heart whenever I have heard it.. a desh bhakti geet.. but nevertheless a real sad song..
Aye mere vatan ke logo zara.. by Lata.

Thanks Faraaj for noticing my little post.
My most personal favorite sad song of Talat sahab, composed by Anilda for the film Do Raha :
Muhabbat tark ki maine garenba see liya maine
zamane ab toh khush ho yeh zahar bhi pee liya maine..
Human emotions are wonderful & strange. Wonderful because without emotions we can not think of any world & strange because these are individually 'unique', 'mera gham sabse badaa' OR
'mein sabse khushnaseeb huun' etc etc . Also, criteria of emotions always keeps on changing, 'what I like today may like it tomorrow but with different percentage'....
...likewise, my list of happy/sad-songs keeps on changing
BC Ji, after taking a deep-breath, swinging here & there, I also cought few fishes...
Today's dish...
Talat
Phir…
…Wohi Sham,
…Wohi Gham,
…Wohi Tanhaayee Hai
Dil Ko Samjhaane…
…Teri Yaaaad Chali Aayee Hai.
Teri Aankh Ke Aansoo Pee Jaauun
Aisi Meri Taqdeer Kahaaan
Tere Gham Mein Tujhko Behelaauun
Aisi Meri Taqdeer Kahaan
Shehar Ki Raat Aur Mein, Nashaad-O-Nakaara Phiruun
Jagmagaati Jaagti Sadkon Pe Awaaa Phiruun
Aye Gham-E-Dil Kya Karuun, Aye,Vehest-E-Dil Kya Karuun ,
Kya Karuun ! Kya Karuun !! Aye Gham-E-Dil Kyaaa Karuun.
Hemant
Jaane Who Kaise Log Theiy Jinko Pyar-Ko-Pyar Mila
Humne To Jab Kaliyaan Mangi Kanton Ka Haar Mila
Ya Dil Ki Suno Duniya Walo, Ya Mujhko Abhi Chup Rehene Do
Main Gham Ko Khushi Kaise Keh Duun Jo Kehete Hain Unko Kehene Do
I give 100% to followings (so far, percentage never changed)
Yesudas
[No one can only Yesudas can sing like this, I rate it with top most Rafian Sad song ' O duniya Ke Rakhwale' ]
Ka Karuun Sajni Aaye Na Baalam
Khoj Rahi Hain Piya Pardeshi Akhiyaan,
Aaye Na Balammmmm
Lata
Chand Phir Nikla, Magar Tum Na Aaye,
Jalaa Phir Mera Dil, Karuun Kya Mein Haaye.
USR
Thanks USR for inputs. Human emotions are probably out
of scope of University's Courses
My pick for today :
Mohe bhool gaye sanwariya
Film: Baiju Bawra
MD: Naushad
Lyrics: Shakeel Badayuni
Specs: 128 Kbps/ 4.15 Min
Preet hai jhoothi, preetam jhootha................
[attachmentid=272125]
Love this song, even though this is not early Lata, I remember Sani once discussing Lata with me had said, her voice offers different things in different decades... This is a post from another thread, but I just wanted to share this song here... Preet ko dekhen nagri wale/peed na dekhen log re, don't know why but I just loved the movie, a confused hotch-potch of a philosophical ghost story that it was. Gulzar manages to create an ambiance with his poetic sensibility, and Dimple is one of the saddest ghosts that you might have ever come across, trapped in time...and... Vinod Khanna falls in love with her.
Lekin(1991)
Kesariya baalma, o ri
Bawri bole log
Na main jiuti na mariyo main
Birha mharo rog re
Bawri bole log, log re...
Chadte din ki aanch batorun
Til til, til til sab jal jaun
Dhalte sanjh ki rakh kuredun
Ret mein sab ral jaye, sab ral jay
Na mil payi na bichadi main
Kaiso ye sanjog re
Bawri bole log re...
Maaru thal ki laambi chhaiyyan
Nis din, nis din kuch likh jaun
Mero sandeso koi suna jo
Jis ko wo, jis ko wo, dikh jaye
Preet ko dekhen nagri wale
Peed na dekhen log re
Bawri bole log re...
The song (based on 'rag' maand) plays with the opening credits of the film and sets its tone. A soul trapped between life and death, unable to escape.... "Na main jevti na mariyo main/birha mharo rog re/bawri bole log." And the last stanza captures the poetry of the entire movie...in the long shadows of the desert, I write something everyday... if someone could hear my message they would see it... "Preet ko dekhen nagri wale/peed na dekhen log re," they do not see the pain behind the romance... the entire movie is about this, a soul trapped in pain, and the man who relives that experience entrapped by it in his turn...
Devdas: 1955 (SDB/Talat/Sahir)
Mitwa laagi re ye kaisi anbujh aag
Mitwa, mitwa mitwa nahin aaye
Laagi re ye kaisi
Vyakul jiyara vyakul naina
Ik ik chup mein sau sau bainaa
Reh gaye aansu lut gaye raag
Mitwa mitwa mitwa mitwa
The ultimate mood song...undiluted sadness. Spare music, spare words, there is a quietness about the song, a heavy despair, that deliberatedly contrasts with the phrases... "vyakul jiyara vyakul naina" ..."lagi ye kaise unbujh aag." It is probably in the way Talat sang the song and the way Dilip emoted it on the screen. The sense of loss is so dominant in the song..."Reh gaye aansu lut gaye raag...Mitwa mitwa mitwa mitwa"
Even though Dilip Kumar thought Rafi's voice suited him the best, I have always felt that the Talat-Dilip combination fitted his Tragedy King image more.
Dil mein dil ka dard chhupaye
Chalo jahan kismat le jaye
Duniya parayi log paraye
I would like to thank Bhupen Hazarika for creating a soulful melody
in "Duniya parayi log yahan begane" for Darmiyan. It always reminds me of
the beautiful sad song written by Shailendra for film Ek gaon ki kahani.
Both are my favourite songs. Today's pick is Raat ne kya kya.......
Raat ne kya kya khwab dikhaye

Songs like these are lost in the whirlwinds of artistic
poetry by few in Bollywood. OP Nayyar straightaway rejected all
gimmicks of a literary great discussed most on the net,
by declaring it as jugaadbazi. Film lyrics are mostly jugaadbazi of
words. One has to take care of Meters & Kilometers. Pure poetry and
Film Lyrics are like "Sauteli Behne" for puritans. Common listener in
jhamelon mein nahin padta ki "Chaudvin ka chand ki matra kya thi"
Underrated sounds irrelevant since the song I am going to chipkao
under, is written by a lyricist not rated by music fans so far.

Hemant is not known for sad songs but everytime I see your topic "Top Sad Songs..." I am reminded of a Hemant song:
Teri Duniya Mein Jeene Se Tho Behtar Hai Ke Mar Jayen....

Hi
Adding my two cents' worth:
1. Aaj raat jhoom le aasman ko choom le kis ko pata hai kal aaye ki na aaye, ae meri zindagi-Taxi Driver.
2. Toote na dil toote na, saath hamara chhoote na_Andaaz.

Waqt karta jo wafa.
Is gaane se juda hua ek kissa hai. Mera ek mitra tha.
Kisi samay wo bahut jyada depression ke daur se guzra.
Mujhe wo samay achchhi tarah se yaad hai. Mamla koi
mubbat isq wala nahin tha. Paristhithiyon ne use aisa jakda
ki wo nirasha ke bhanwar mein doobta chala gaya. Us samay
jo gaane wo suna karta tha usme se ye ek hai. Wo to khair
doston ka saath chhod gaya kuchh saal baad, uski yaadein reh gayi.
Maine pehle kabhi is gaane ki lyrics pe itna dhyan nahin diya tha.
Us wakiye ke baad is gaane ke bol aise yaad ho gaye
jaise 17 ka pahada ho.

Hi Everyone
I have two more songs. I am not that young anymore but these songs are from a generation preceding the one I am from.
Shahjehan_1946_Jab dil hi toot gaya ham ji ke jya karenge_Kundan Lal Saigal
Shahjehan_1946_Gham diye mustaqil, kitna nazuk hai dil yeh na jaana, haaye haaye yeh zaalim zamana_Kundan Lal Saigal.
Harjinder
Saigal's songs ... yes, one has to cultivate a taste for Saigal's singing...at least I had to and the results are tremendously rewarding. Here's another one I find beautiful from Shahjehan, incredible, the way he pauses on "maloom" and "hamen" ...
Chah barbaad karegi hamen maloom na tha
Rote rote hi kategi hamen maloom na tha
Maut bhi hampe hasegi hamen maloom na tha
Zindagi rog banegi hamen maloom na tha
Chah barbaad karegi hamen maloom na tha
Chayi ghanghor ghata, chand sitare na rahe
Ek (?) na rahen ab wo sahare na rahe
Gair to gair hi the wo bhi hamare na rahe
Hampe aisi bhi padegi hamen maloom na tha...
Beautiful lyrics... "hampe aisi bhi padegi hamen maloom na tha... "
One of my favourite sad songs sung by male singers
of HFM world.

Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tere : 1960
Mujhko is raat ki tanhai mein awaaz na do
Jiski aawaaz rula de mujhe wo saaz na do...
Roshni ho na saki dil bhi jalaya maine
Tumko bhula hi nahin laakh bhulaya maine
Main pareshan hoon mujhe aur pareshan na karo...
Awaaz na do...
Kalyanji Anandji gave Mukesh some beautiful songs under their baton. In 1960, while still struggling to establish their identity, they delivered two hits, the SJ inspired Chhalia album, that had Mukesh as the lead singer. Balancing the mischievous "Dum Dum Diga Diga" was the sadly sonorous "Mere toote hue dil se koi to aaj ye pooche..." The other popular album released in the same year was Dil Bhi Tera Hum Bhi Tere, that had a very young Dharmendra singing this track...the tandem song that is sung quite beautifully by Lata, simply does not create the same magic for me... The lyrics of the song are by Shamim Jaipuri who composed the lyrics for only a handful of albums in hindi cinema. There is a directness about the lyrics that is very appealing... "Jiski awaaz rula de mujhe wo saaz na do" and "Main pareshan hoon mujhe aur pareshan na karo."
here are three songs from my list of favourite sad songs in HF -
One hears this beautiful song played in the background as the title rolls
and Raju guide emerges from the jail. This song beautifully brings out the
dilemma of the protagonist who is not sure of what life holds
for him outside the four walls of the prison.

Movie : Guide

An all time classic from Rafisaab. The song tests his vocal chords as there is minimal music and his voice has to generate all the pathos & melody together. Ultimately, his singing triumphs.

Lyric : Bahadur Shah Zafar
Specs : MP3 / 128 kbps / 2.84 mb / 3.14 mins
