Magic of Talat Mehmood

I have loved his songs ever since i can remember.My uncle used to hum Zindgee denewale sun and it made me cry for some reason, not understanding the lyrics, just listening to the soulful tune.
Then all through my growing years, it has been a continuous exploration of his magical tunes,collecting his songs and listening to them.What a treasure he has left behind..I hope that i am able to collect a nd listen to all his songs in my life time..

Some of my Most Favourite Talat Mehmood songs...;

Solos..;

This has been my most favourite song since my child hood
1,Zindgee denewaale sun teri duniyaa se dil bhar gayaa....
another favourite..;
2,Zindgee ki kasm ho chuke unke hum
3,Dekhli teri khudaai bhas mera dil bhar gayaa
4,Aankhon mein masti sharaab ki
5,Badal jaaye duniyaa na badlenge hum tumhari kasam
6,Jeevan hai Maduban
7,Sham e gham ki kasam aaj gham hi hai gham
8,Mein dil hoon ik armaan bhara
9, Hai sabse madhr woh geet jinhe hum dard ki sur mein
10,Dil matwaala laakh sambhaala
11,Bharam teri wafaavon ka
12,Pyar par bhas to nahin hai
i could add another dozen more here..

Duets..;

1,Seene mein sulag the hai armaan
2,Sammake dil mein hamare zaraa khayal rahe
3,Dil mein samaa gaye sajan
4,Keheta hai dil tum ho mere liye
5,Raat hai armaan bhare
6,Aajaa..Baharon ki duniya pukare tu aajaa
7,Armaan bhari dil ki lagan tere liye hai
8,Haseen chand sitaron ka vaasta aaja
9, Dil mera tera deewana
10,Itnana mujhse tu pyar bhada
11,Dil yeh dil baharon se mil sitaron se aankhe milaa
12,Milte hi aanke dil hua deewana kisikaa

Again i can add a least another fifty songs..;

  1. Kiran..that is a lovely choice. The very first time i heard Talat, was around fifteen, and even without knowing the language i fell in love with his songs. His voice is so sweet, especially with the tremble..quite unique and goes straight to the heart. By no standards can we say that he is prolific...yet he left a treasure for us to cherish. :-)
