We give in your care now, our motherland, friends/companions,

Saans Tham Thi Gayi, Nabz Jam Thi Gayi,
The breathing had stopped, the pulse was frozen
Phir Bhi Badathe Kadam Ko Na Rukh Ne Diya,
Even then advancing steps were not allowed to halt
Kat Gaye Sar Hamaare, Tho Kuch Gam Nahin,
Our heads fell, but we do not grieve
Sar Himalay Ka Hamne Na Jhuk Ne Diya,
We didn’t let Himalay’s head bend
Marte Marte Raha Baanq Pan Saathiyon,

Zinda Rehene Ke Mausam, Bahut Hai Magar,
The season of living is a lot to go yet
Jaan Dene Ki Rut Roz Aati Nahin,
Life sacrificing weather doesn’t come every day
Husn Aur Ishq Dono Ko Ruswa Kare,
The Beauty and the Love both are dishonored
Woh Jawaani Jo Khoon Mein Naahathi Nahin,
By youth (prime of life) that is not bathed in blood
Aaj Dharti Bani Hai Dulhan Saathiyon,
Today the earth has been decked as a bride, friends (red is the bridal color)

Raah Qurbaaniyon Ki Na Veeran Ho,
Paths of Sacrifices, let not be deserted
Tum Sajaathe Hi Rehna Naye Kaafile,
You must continue to form traveling parties
Fathe Ka Jashn Is Jashn Ke Baad Hein,
The celebration of victory is after this celebration
Zindagi Maut Se Mil Rahi Hai Gale,
Life is embracing death
Bandlo Apne Sar Se Kafan Saathiyon,
Tie on your heads, your shrouds, friends

Ab Tumhare Hawale, Watan Saathiyon..
We give in your care now, our motherland, friends
Kar Chale Ham Fida, Jan-o-tan Saathiyon..
We are about to sacrifice our life, our body, friends

Khench Do Apne Khoon Se Zameen Par Lakeer,
Describe a line on earth with your blood
Is Tarah Aane Ne Paaye Na Raawan Koyi,
So that no Raawan may cross over this side
Thod Do Haath Agar Haath Utne Lage,
Break the hands if they begin to reach
Chune Paaye Na Sita Ka Daaman Koyi,
Let no one touch Sita’s hem
Ram Bhi Tum, tumhi Lakshman Saathiyon,
Ram is you, and youu are Lakshman, friends

Ab Tumhare Hawale, Watan Saathiyon..
We give in your care now, our motherland, friends
Kar Chale Ham Fida, Jan-o-tan Saathiyon,

[imported_abdool]

Sometimes Rafisaab was not only admired for his songs, but his kindness, his good deeds, like for example as someone had recorded:

Despite his great success Rafi was a simple, kind hearted and down-to-earth person. When Laxmi-Pyare recorded their first ever non-film song, Rafi called them after the recording and said Are you both happy?, Yes, said the duo. He then gave his entire fees to them and asked them to divide it among themselves. Since then we have always shared everything equally, said the late Lakshmikant. Such was the respect he got from the music directors. He sang free of cost or for a small fee for producers who were short of finances.

NB Laxmikant/Pyrelall were struggling music director at the time:

Kya misaal dun main teri, naam lun main kiska
Who can be your equal, who is such a one?
Nahin, nahin, aisa haseen, koyi nahin hai

auron ki tarha kuchh main bhi, tohfa leke aata
like others, I too should have brought a gift
Main teri haseen mehfil mein, phool leke aata
in this beautiful assembly, I would have brought flowers
Jinhe kaha usse chaaha, phoolo ki zaroorat
The one spoken to, was loved, needs no flowers*
Jo pahar khud keh laaye, har kali ka dil dhadhkaaye
The one who dug up a mountain, made every flower bud’s heart beat
Tu jiye hazaaron saal, ye meri hai aarzoo
May you live thousands of years, this is my wish
Happy Birthday to you – 2
Happy Birthday to you, Sunita, Happy Birthday to you

Are we missing the first verse?: seems so

[imported_abdool]

Some will compare Rafisaab with KK or SPB both very good and very great singers;

The compariosn will forever be debatable of who is the “best”

After some 50 years and over, Rafi songs are still hitting the airwaves constantly, the other master

KK songs are still remembered; but as good as SPB is, I wonder if his songs will stand up to

time and be considered as gems?

The range and diversity in Rafisaab’s song is yet to be seen of any other singer,

Qawali, Light Classical, Religious, Love Songs, Happy Songs, Sad Songs, Religious Songs,

Songs like “Mujhe apne sharan may lelo Ram” songs from the film “Tulsidas”

Songs for the month of Ramzaan, songs for any occasions…….The Master is always there.

A song like “O Duniya Kay Rakhwalay” the last part of the song………only few can carry a

bechain si rahati hain, tere liye ye baahen

mujhe khud pataa nahin hai, mujhe tujhse pyaar kyuun hai,
I have no idea why I love you so much

what heart’s connection is this, o little angel

you’re like a delicate flower but of someone else’s garden
khushabuu se teri mahake, kyon baag mere man kaa
why is my heart’s garden scented with your fragrance?
meri zindagi mein chhaaii, tujhase bahaar kyuun hai,
why does my life bloom (like spring) with your presence?

tuu kuchh nahin hai meraa, phir bhi ye tarap kaisi
you’re not mine so why do I feel this torment?
tujhe dekhate hi khuun mein, uthatii hai qu lahar si
my blood rises on a wave of ecstasy everytime I see you
har wakt mujhako rahataa, teraa intazaar kyuun hai,
why do I wait anxiously to see you every moment?

The date of his passing away July 31st was perhaps

divinely pre-ordained, for it is said that one who dies in the
holy month goes to heaven. There was no person more deserving of
that status than the pious and God-fearing Rafi, who never touched
a drop of alcohol, who never told a lie, who never had a harsh
word for anyone, and who worshipped his work. A man whose songs
wiped away many a sorrowful tear from the eyes of those who were
struggling under the burden of life and brought tears of ecstatic
joy to many more.

Khatam Hue Din Us Daali Ke Jis Par Tera Basera Tha
Gone are the days of that branch on which you were perched
Aaj Yahan Aur Kal Wahan Yeh Jogi Wala Phera Tha

Toone Tinka Tinka Chunkar Nagri Ek Basaai
You have collected bit by bit and made a city or/ collected straws and made your nest
Baarish Mein Teri Bheegi Aankhein Dhoop Mein Garmi Khai
In rain your eyes have got wet and suffered the heat of sun
Gham Na Kar Jo Mehnat Tere Koi Kaam Na Aayi
do not grief if your laborious task is not fruitful
Achha Hai Kuchh Le Jaane Se Dekar Hi Kuchh Jaana
It is better to give than to take something away
Chal Ud Ja Re Panchhi …
Go bird, fly away…

(They knew that one day the breeze of love will come this way)
Fizaaon rang bikhraao, mera mehboob aaya hai
(Surroundings spread color, my love has arrived)
Mera mehboob aaya hai
(my lover is here)
Hawaaon raagini gaao, mera mehboob aaya hai
(Winds sing away to the tunes, my darling has arrived)
Mera mehboob aaya hai
(my sweetheart has arrived)
Bahaaron phool barsaao, mera mehboob aaya hai
(Seasons of spring, shower with flowers, my love has arrived)
Mera mehboob aaya hai
(my lover has arrived)

SONU NIGAM TALKS OF THE LEGEND:

Sonu Nigam(singer)

“Rafi Saab is God to me. I have grown up listening to him and imitating him in
my early years. Rafi Saab sounded only like Rafi Saab if
he sang Chahe koi mujhe junglee kahe from Junglee, or Man tarpat Hari
darshan ko from Baiju Bawra which is what made him the legend he was.
