Someone requested Jagjit-Chitra Singh ghazals hence, I am posting this.
The following song is one of my favourites.

Movie: Saath Saath
Actors: Farooq Sheik & Deepti Naval (maybe?)

tumko dekha to yeh khayal aya
zindagi dhuup tum gana saya...

aaj phir dil ne ek tamana ki
aaj phir dil ne ek tamana ki
aap phir dilko humne samjaya
zindagi dhuup tum gana saya

tumko dekha ...

hum jise gun guna nahi sakte
hum jise gun guna nahi sakte
waqt ne aisa geet kyo gaya
zindagi dhuup tum gana saya

tumko dekha ...

tum chale jaoge to sochenge
tum chale jaoge to sochenge
hum ne kya khoya humne kya paya
zindagi dhuup tum gana saya

tumko dekha ...

I was looking for the lyrics of a song which goes like this :

kuch na kuch to zaroor hona hai
samana aaj onsa hona hai
zindagi aur mout ka matalab ...

Thanks for any help offered

The album VISIONS by J Singh contains this ghazal. Here it is...
This is in the old ITRANS (v 1) format, so if you have that software, you
are all set to print it out.

gaayaka: jagajiita si.nga
lekhaka: vaajidaa tabassuma

kuchha na kuchha to zaruura honaa hai,
saamanaa aaja unase honaa hai

toDo, fe.nko.n, rakho, karo kuchha bhii,
dila hamaaraa hai, kyaa khilonaa hai

zi.ndagii aura mauta kaa matalaba,
tumako paanaa hai, tumako khonaa hai

itanaa Daranaa bhii kyaa hai duniyaa se,
jo bhii honaa hai so to honaa hai

uTha ke mahafila se mata chale jaanaa,
tumase roshana ye konaa-konaa hai

--------------------

There are some nice shers in VISIONS and IN SEARCH, the two solo albums
by Jagjit. The quality of most of the lyrics is mediocre though. However,
his voice makes up for that. If there is interest, I can post some more
of the better shers from these.

In article <rnand00....@mik.uky.edu>, rna...@nx09.mik.uky.edu

This one can be found in the collection "Someone Somewhere", which
features both J/C Singh and is dedicated to the memory of their son
who died in an accident, I believe. Here are the lyrics,
again in Itrans format....

lekhaka: fanaa nizaamii

koI samajhegaa kyaa raaza-e-gulashana,
jaba taka ulajhe naa kaa.nTo.n se daamana.

yaka-bayaka saamane aa naa jaanaa,
ruka na jaae kahii.n dila kii dhaDakana.

gula to gulafaara taka chuna lie hai.n,
phira bhii khaalii hai gulachhii kaa daamana.

kitanii aarAisha-e-aashiyaanaa,
TuuTa jaae naa shaakha-e-nashemana.

azmata-e-aashiyaanaa baDhaa.n dii.n,
barqa ko dosta samajhuu.C ke dushmana.

---------------------------
glossary : aarAish = decoration(s), nasheman = nest,
barq = lightning, azmat = shaan/splendour (?)
yaka-bayaka = suddenly/achaanak

One small correction. Could someone who has the 'original' ITRANS stuff at
the ftp site (Sridhar?) please make the correction over there?

^^^^^^^^^ gula khaara

^^^^^^^^^ ghulcheeN (sorry, my ITRANS knowledge is
miniscule!)
