04 Zindagi bhar nahin bhoolegi woh barsaat ki raat- Barsaat

[orientlover1]

Pt. 2/2

As she wrung her red stole;

As if shot at my heart a fiery bolt.

Happenings of that night set water on fire;

Never in my life shall I forget that monsoon night.

She was an image that forever lives in my songs;

An incarnation of my youthful beautiful dream;

Descended from the heavens for just one night;

Never in my life shall I forget that monsoon night.

Pt. 1/2 Never in my life shall I forget that monsoon night; Night of a chance meeting with a beauty unknown. Oh, that water raining down silky locks; Droplets of water longing to stay on rosy cheeks. A night of surging storms of passion in the heart; Never in my life shall I forget that monsoon night. Suddenly, at a thunder flash clung to me in fright; And then recoiled, abashed, shrank back. Never before heard or seen such a wonderful night; Never in my life shall I forget that monsoon night

[shivisidhu]

simply incomparable. Works like these are like the Himalayas or Ganges..

[mainhoondon21]

Bharat Bhushan is so expressionless.

[rajeev1071]

Problems with lip-sync of Bharat Bhushan???

[ranjan1sri]

wah wah lyric, singing and music! what a composition!!

[itchysatan]

awww want to be young again :)

[raeesrana11]

great song, beautifuly sung by rafi sahab..but the most beautiful thing about this song is the naughty smile of madhu bala, i always gave madhuri all credits for the best smile of bollywood but i guess madhu bala had a lil more than madhuri

[justdodat]

Movie: Barsaat Ki Raat (1960)

[wanderingiwonder]

[kk10061]

[SuperZainamin]

tis bringss back sooo many memories



[orientlover1]

At 0:36 for a split second Madhubala looks straight into the camera.

[nada0319]

GOSH songs like these dont exist anymore :(

[TheKkverma]

Rafi sahab is god of singers.u can not compare him with nusrat fateh ali khan because no human is more talented then god and rafi sahab yani khuda ki aawaz.got it

[ryahul]

This makes me hate present day bollywood even more!

[MrTariii]

all languages of the world have no words to express the deep and profound singing of Rafi Sahab. we need pen of gold with golden ink in it and having the ball of daimond in its small nib.

[srnath123]

Recently saw an interview with legend K J Yesudas.

When asked about how to sing a song to perfection, Yesudas gave an example of how Rafi has sung this song...and added "I have always considered Rafi to be my Guru in my mind" !!

I always believed that Yesudas is a more gifted and technically better singer than Rafi Saab, but....Yesudas himself said it all about what Rafi means to him!!

Long Live Rafi Saab!

[bagshitass]

@srnath123 more gifted than Rafi..whats your musical qualification that makes you think that? how about ustad nusrat fateh ali khan more technical than the whole of your indian singers put together, would that be going too far? what you think means nothing..facts are rafi was the best in india, like ustad was in the whole of asia and beyond!

[srnath123]

@bagshitass ( nice name BTW )

LMAO

Take it easy dude.

[arnab175]

@srnath123 go have a mental health chek up done...... do u even understand son techniques..... yesudas is amazing.... but u have the sheer audacity to compare him to rafi u.....

[srnath123]

@arnab175

LMAO again. its my opinion dude.

Take a chill pill.

[mahesh1946]

Immortal song and singer

[docctr]

A 5 star rating.

An epitome of expression in theist beautiful subtle way. How simple yet so great.

A golden era of Indian cinema. Black and White with the old tech radio but still as colourful as Madhubala must have been.

Beyond words... It is to feel and experience.

[purohitprashant1983]

Life no forget rainy night

[kangjagir]

best old song

[dipali2204]

this song is very nice i like it

[vikky315]

barsat ki raat aur rafi sahab ki saugaat dono nahi bhulenge.

[bhallagsm]

Rafi best voice ever came to Hindi cinema , Madhubala was most beautiful actress of Bollywood and the music of Roshan :: best combination. Rafi has sung some of the best songs with Roshan in films like Tajmahal, Chitralekah (Man re tu kahe na dhir dhare) , and unfergettable Tum EK BAR Muhabbat ka imtihan to lo (Babar)

[zawarmas]

Wah kya baat hai!

zindagi bhar nahein bhoole gi havalaat ki raat

[orientlover1]

zindagi bhar nahein bhoole gi havalaat ki raat

[anfieldkop88]

If rafi is not a muslim i dont think the muslims will be glorifying him.

[wowzeem]

@anfieldkop88 Actually, I think all of India glorifies Rafi :)

[jagjitisher]

one of the best & favorit compositions of the gr8 legend roshan. sahir- roshan- rafi the gr8 triangle has given us many such like gems. a gr8 nostalgia of 60s. thanx 4 the nice upload.

[sonny19xx]

Rafi glows in this song. What to praise ! Tne music of Roshan , The voice of Rafi or the beauty of Madhubala.. We fall short of praises in such situations. Why do we even write ? Personally the pride of place belongs to Rafi- Roshan equally. THANKS deepuvel

[bhadrashetty]

The best. it is my life; my situation . and my pain i listen to with tears in my eyes. Salute Rafi saab for singing it as if for me and for me only!

[drekwilmoth]

I agree. I have not heard the song that described the scene of the movie so beatiful.... and Madhubala wow! So natural

[sruthybiju]

my most favourate song

[link2syed]

Rafi jee we all miss you so much

[sundarraman1]

An immortal songs with great lyrics,the sexy Madhubala n Rafi as usual the life of all life. The film was a flop but the songs were big hits till date. Jane kahan gaye woh din.

[aruncricket]

@sundarraman1

einer der besten von rafi  wunderbsr

[djay121]

Mohd. Rafi Sahab was in a league of his own. As a singer I can say that Rafi sahab's songs are the most difficult to do justice on stage.

Although Manna Dey was always technically brilliant, the versatility that Rafi sahab could bring to the table is unbeatable. As a playback singer, understanding the emotion in context with the script and delivering a moving rendition of a composition are of paramount importance. Rafi Sahab did that consistently.

Pure musical genius = Late. Mohd. Rafi sahab.

[honey81jain]

I guess u haven't yet seen the versatality of Kishore Kumar. I think he is the true genius although Mohd. Rafi is a class in his own in which no one can beat him.

[camfocal]

@honey81jain

Difference between Horse and DONKEY

Raffi Horse - Kishore Donkey. May be you like braying of donkey.

[lakerzxkobex09champs]

man! i wish i was alive back in the days, i would so try to hook up with madhubala, she was absolutely stunning so sad she died at such a young age :(

[rahman212294617]

Good song ------but no doubt ,the real BEAUTY is MADHUBALA --------see the expressions & acting of MADHUBALA. What a superb joy to watch MADHUBALA. This NATURAL BEAUTY elevates this song to the level of loving ecstacy. What a magical loving spell, Madhubala really creates.

[gunchibaiyya]

I will never forget that night in my life. The night of my meeting with a stranger beauty. I will never forget. (Now describing what he won't forget) Water, that was dripping from the silky soft locks of hair. Water, that longed to stay longer on the flower-soft cheeks before slipping away. It was the night that raised the thunderstorm of feelings in the hearts.

[sjthemaster]

Mann..i m speechless.!

comenting rafi is a cheep thing to do. his voice can not compared.

weh he sings..its like HEAVEN ON EARTH.!

[bahetipras]

This song is based on Raag Yaman I think. Awesome.

[bagshitass]

This is why rafi is known as the only legend to stand apart from the crowd..from saaz aur awaaz to laila majnu....Rafi killed all other singers...they might have had their quality, but no one can compare themselves to thos heavenly voiced individual!!

[russelindia]

very well said brother...the time has come that we rafi fans propagate our views more freely...the man deserved it....

[russelindia]

rafi is magical once again.............far ahead of manadeys, kishores and mukesh............

[bagshitass]

Well said, i couldnt have put it better myself india!!

[russelindia]

Thanks brother for appreciating the magic of rafi....many are writting against me ......but then I simply cant understand that how can they put rafi, kishore,mukes, manadeys on same pedastal......rafi has no pedastal becuse u cant have one for him..............melody incarnated......RAFI.the voice that has created things beyond music.....decades will come decades will go.....Rafis voice wiil continue to haunt the music lovers............

[bagshitass]

Absoloutely agreed...Only the true audiophile can appreciate the style and vocal of rafi's magical voice, the everyday person can only judge a good or bad song...whatever they say...There can only be one best...MOHD> RAFI!!

[MrHusseinSheikh]

Well said russelindia.

[russelindia]

thanks very much...

[hobgoblin707]

this is the WORST picturization of a song from an actor i have ever seen! madhubala's charms do compensate but bharat bhushan is so wooden! is he TRYING to be bad?

[dhoopchhaon]

They should have simply focussed more on Madhubala. Bharat Bhushan has simply the exact same expression throughout. Even Mhd Rafi probably displayed more emotion while recording this in the studio.

Madhubala lifts the picturization displaying her coy charms while Bharat Bhushan is as expressive as the mic he is singing into.

[ujjawalgandhi]

haha....totally agree with you... it is like chandrachud singh singing tujhe dekhe to yeh jaana sanam with kajol!!

[AhumBramhasmi]

ohhhh madhubala.....the pristine beauty that GOD created in his GOLDEN DREAMS!!!

[jfmunir]

Beautiful song by Rafi.Great singer of old times.

[badaustad]

Old time times ????

You need to wake up and read all the posts on Rafi .

He is for ALL TIMES cos he is TIMELESS !!!!

[Alphaqueen67]
