Kabhi hai gham kabhi khushiyaan yahi to zindgaani hai
Posted August 22, 2009
on:During early 1950s, the biggest name in male playback singing was Talat Mehmood, and like Suraiyya on the distaff side, he was foraying into acting too. In fact, many music directors at that time thought that he was not avaialble to sing for other actors ( like Suraiyya) and as a result he stopped getting offers for playback singing for other actors.
Here is a movie where Talat Mehmood and Suraiyya acted together. In this song, both are seen in the picturisation. But the song itself is a solo song, sung only by Talat Mehmood. This song is from “Waaris” (1954). Qamar Jalalabadi wrote this song and its music was composed by Anil Biswas. All these names were heavyweight names at that time. And indeed, this song packs a punch. It is a superbly sung song Talat Mehmood’s voice is always soothing to listen to. Listening and watching him sing a philosophical song is even more soothing. It is a nice song to listen to.

Song-Kabhi hai gham kabhi khushiyaan yahi to zindgaani hai (Waaris) (1954) Singer-Talat Mehmood, Lyrics-Qamar Jalalabadui, Anil Biswas
Lyrics
kabhi hai gham kabhi khushiyaan yahi to zindgaani hai
kabhi lab par hansi hai aur kabhi aakhon mein paani hai
kabhi hai gham
na ghabraa aasmaan par chhaa gayaa hai aaj agar baadal
na ghabraa aasmaan par chhaa gayaa hai aaj agar baadal
ki ye baadal hi chandaa ke nikalne ki nishaani hai
ki ye baadal hi chandaa ke nikalne ki nishaani hai
kabhi hain gham
bharaa karte hain zakhm-e-dil aur aansoo bhi hain tham jaate
bharaa karte hain zakhm-e-dil aur aansoo bhi hain tham jaate
aur aansoo bhi hain tham jaate
banaayi jisne duniyaa ye usi ki meharbaani hai
banaayi jisne duniyaa ye usi ki meharbaani hai
kabhi hai gham kabhi khushiyaan yahi to zindgaani hai
kabhi hai gham

@ Atul ji – Thanks for the post …!!
Yesterday got to listen it on radio… and as very rightly said by you “Listening and watching Talat Mahmood singing a philosophical song is even more soothing”
