It isn’t possible to talk about Ghazals and not mention Jagjit Singh. An iconic singer, composer and musician who revolutionized Ghazals for Bollywood. Jagjit Singh was also a Padma Bhushan Awardee who got a stamp to his name in the year 2004 as a token of respect for the legend from the government.
Here is a list of amazing lyrics that Jagjit Singh gave us before leaving us forever, craving for more of his work:
- Tumko Dekha To Ye Khayaal Aaya, Zindagi Dhoop, Tum Ghana Saaya.
- Kaun Kehta Hai Mohobbat Ki Koi Zubaan Hoti Hai, Mohobbat Hai Jaaneman, Aankhon Se Bayaan Hoti Hai.
- Hosh Walon Ko Khabar Kya, Bekhudi Kya Cheez Hai. Ishq Kijiye, Fir Samajhiye, Zindagi Kya Cheez Hai.
- Chitthi Na Koi Sandesh, Jaane Wo Kaun Sa Desh, Jahaan Tum Chale Gaye.
- Badi Nazuk Hai Ye Manzil, Mohobbat Ka Safar Hai. Dhadak Aahista Se Ae Dil, Mohobbat Ka Safar Hai.
- Aankhon Mein Nami, Hansi Labon Par. Kya Haal Hai, Kya Dikha Rahe Ho? Kya Ghum Hai Jisko Chupa Rahe Ho? Tum Itna Jo Muskura Rahe Ho.
- Hothon Se Chuu Lo Tum, Mera Geet Amar Kar Do. Ban Jao Meet Mere, Meri Preet Amar Kar Do.
- Hazaaron Khwahishen Aisi Ki Har Khwahish Pe Dam Nikle.
Bahut Nikle Mere Armaan, Lekin Phir Bhi Kam Nikle
