Posted by: myawan Dec 19 2004, 04:52 PM

kahan tujh sa ab mile ga hamain
ke tu hi to suron ka baadshah tha
sangeet ki waadi main tab se maatam hai
ke us din har ik sur tere saath hi chal diya tha



Jidhar Jaoon Teri Awaz Mujhe Ghaire Hai
Kaisa Sureela Jadoo Gale Main Tere Hai
Aor Hi Jahan Main Khud Ko Pata Hoon Ai Rafi
Jab Bhi Tu Apne Sur Ke Moti Bikhaire Hai

His voice illuminated our ears
His voice crushed our fears

True beauty in his voice was embedded
That listening to Kishore was always dreaded

The best singer of all time
Finer than the word fine

MOHAMMED RAFI SAAB

I dont know what to write as a tribute to this wonderful soul! I dont have any words.
Since he left all of us, his voice has grown on us more and more and made his presence felt! Some of us who were born after his departure, wish we would have been in same era when he was there so that we might have been able to meet him/listen to him live!

Rafisaab ur voice is soothing and no one will be able to forget u ever

Rafi saab, Aap ke gane sun ke aakhon mein aansoo aajata hai. Aap hamesha yaad ate hai muhjko. Aap ki meethi awaaz ko suna to mera roz ka kaam hai. Mohd. Rafi tum bahut yaad ate ho.
Zindagi to bewafa hai ek na ek din thukaraayegi....

Rafi saab will always remain the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be. His void can never be filled and he will always hold a special place in our hearts. In tribute to the great genius I wish to end off with a quote by Naushad ji :

"The knot in music was broken the day Rafi saab passed away"

Happy Birthday Rafisaab !!

May your soul rest in peace.

Happy Birthday, Rafi Sahab!
His integrity of character and angelic disposition alone would have made Rafisaab a great man. Add to that an unsurpassable mastery of sur, a voice of rare beauty and humility of the truly great, and you have an extraordinary man indeed!
There was never one like him, and never will be.

Tum Mujhe Yun Bhula Na Paaoge!

Jab Kabhie Bhi Sunoge Geet Mere

Sang Sang Tum Bhi Gungunaaoge!

This song from the movie Pagla Kahin Kaa was it seems especially written for Rafi Sahab. Words dry up and emotions tend to break barriers whenever I get an opportunity to hear that "simply outstanding voice".

A Very Happy Birthday Our Dear Mohdrafi Sahab!
Aapki aawaaz ke saaye mein hum aur hamaari yeh duniya yuhi mehakti rahe.

Aapka Ek Naachiz Chaahene Wala

I feel all of us must have felt the same when trying to type something for this occasion. Though the heart pounds heavily with so much to say, putting them down in words seems the most difficult task. I have felt this emotion other times too, and only one attribute is common to all such occasions - LOVE.

The love for a person, who was already no more when I was born, has been with me through all times since I was captivatated by his voice and nature. Whatever the mood I am in, there are always a song or two by Rafi Saab that I feel he must have sung for me. I know this is true for all of us.

Wishing a very happy birthday to Rafi Saab!

To take from one of his songs -

"Mera to jo bhi kadam hai, woh teri raah mein hai,
Ke tu kahin bhi rahe tu meri nigah mein hai.
Chhupa hua sa mujhi mein hai tu kahin ay dost,
Meri hasi mein nahin to, tu meri aah mein hai."

The legend of the legends, the man of simplicity, dignity and smiley face with his natural superb golden voice…

No adequate words in the dictionary to describe him....just could say a genius that borns once and once only…

Happy birthday to the great singer Mohammed Rafi

I am also a great fan of Rafi Saab. Uke chahanewalon me mein bhi ek nacheez hoon. Unke birthday me maine ek chhota sa poem banaya. ye poem "O nanhe se farishte.." (Ek phool do malee) ke tune me milaya.

My poem on great Rafi Saab…

O dharti ke farishte
Tujhse ye bada nataa tujhse ye dil ke rishte
O dharti ke farishte
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you

Nafrat ki is duniya me hans hans ke aap jiye 2
Lekin hum tho aise ke rob hi Na sake hai
Tere jaisa Jo bada dil kaise hum log bana le
Dilmein who Dard chhoopakar jahan me mushkurane

O dharti ke farishte …
Happy birthday to you 3

Tu sabkuchha hai mera phir bhi yeh dil tadapti thi 2
Tujhe dekhke ye dilme ye hasrat bani rahti thi
Tujhse Kab miloon mein tujhsa kaise khiloon mein

O dharti ke farishte …

Tujhsa bada hansi sakhsh duniya mein koi nahin hai 2
Tere aawazke jadoo se lakho fana ho Gaye hain
Jo mar Gaye dilkashi pe who jinda ho Gaye hain
Khuda ka tu karishma hai is dharti ka tu khusnuma hain

O dharti ke farishte
Tujhse ye bada naata thujhse ye dilke rishte
O dharti ke farishte
Happy birthday to you 3

Rafi Saab ! aapki aawaz lakho saal tak is duniyame goojti rahegi aur goojti rahe. Sab aapko yaad kare ke Rafi Saab kya the ?

Aapka chahanewala

Imagine a man who doesn't understand anything from the song lyrics, but still listen to his songs with admiration!

It is me!

Hello, I'm from Turkey and new to this forum.

I just wanted to say Happy birthday to Mohammad Rafi

Unfortunately, I haven't been aware of him when I was young. Anyway, now I listen to his songs with pleasure.

Regards

Its as if Rafi Saab is singing from the stars:

"Main yeh sochkar uske dar se utha tha"

But, none of us, with all our prayers and affection could hold him back.

We remember you fondly, Sir, and wish you a happy birthday.

I think the most versatile of all singers - and in my opinion no one sang a Quawali song quite like Rafi Saab.

ye gana jab bhi sunta hoon , aakhon mein aasu aa jaate hein, dil bhaari ho jaata hai,aisi awaaz to kisi ki hona to shayad ek ittefaq thaa jo bohot hi kam hota hai, aur mujhe yeh baat kahne mein koi hich ki cha hat nahi hai ki rafi sahab jaisa singer ,aaj tak paida nahi hua aur shayad hi kabhi hoga, lekin kishore kumar inke jhoote ki khaak ke baraabar bhi nahi hai.. aur 70s ka wo daur yaad karein jab rajesh khanna superstar tha aur unke saare gaane kishore ko diye jaate the tak rafi sahab ko ghar bithaa diya gaya thaa, naa insaafi ki hai unke saath, aur mujhe to aisa lagta hai ki rafi sahab ko heart attack ne nahi balki unke saath hui berukhi ne maara hai

Haapy Birthday to the most versatile singer in HF.

I was fortunate enough to see his live concert and still remember it
fonldley. All his fans miss him a great deal. It is sad that we lost our
great legends like Rafi sahab, Mukeshji, Kishorekumar at young age,
When they still had so much more to offer.

We should cherish thier memories and music.

Ramesh

Posted by: Askar Kukkady Dec 24 2005, 12:26 AM

Happy birthday to the incomparable singer of all time. Every time you listen to Rafi Sahab I wonder as to what a cruel loss it was that he had to leave us at such a young age.
Although he will never be with us his voice is immortal.
