Dear Shirin
This song is available on
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axgWEbYF100
just click this link and first it is her famous song Kahan ho tum.
there are two songs compiled in one file

assalamu`alaikum, siddiqui sahib!

why do you have to dig up such nostalgic subjects, people, songs and places? `je chilo drishtir shimanae` is one of the most poignant, touching and heart rending songs ever created, rendered and so exquisitely, presented under the sun..shahnaz begum is still one of my most favourite singers; she is timeless..

thanks for the momories, although it hurts..

I beleive Sadia Afroze Ali (now Choudhury) is in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Hopfully we are talking of the same Sadia.

Lovely thoughts are enkindled reading this article .The songs everyone has mentioned are beautiful ones , but the one which is one of my favourites to date and delivered beautifully by Shahnaz Begum, is ``Kis key liyae fiza ko saja tee hai chandni ``.

Unfortunately i have forgotten the song beyond its first line , but have not forgotten the mesmerising effect it used to and still has , even though now just fragments of it are left to memory .

if anyone knows the lyrics beyond the first line , and would not mind posting them , i shall be greatly indebted for the bail !! :)

Ras,

Nice article. On a tangent, the Lata song you mentioned i.e. ``Tum na jaaney kis Jahan mein Kho gayen`` is one of my favorite songs. It is a really beautiful number.

nice article.

I`ve never heard Shahnaaz Begum`s voice.

I think I will.

Felicitations on Independence Day!

Ras Siddiqui!

I have Sohni Dharti as the top patriotic song being sung.

What a beautiful voice was Shahnaz Begum.

Ras:

Thanks for this trip down memory lane.

Shahnaz Begum lives in the heart of music lovers in the sub continent. This reportage rekindled her haunting renditions of:

Baat niklay gi tou
Sawan aaya tum nahiN aaye
Pawan devani
mujhay tum naz`r say
and
sohni dharti

among other songs and ghazals.


Thanks, once again.

regards,

temporal

PS: Since you are still in touch with them can you help me trace the whereabouts of Sadia Afroze Ali?
