I have been always a fan of Mr. Rafi Saheb and use to immitate his voice since I was 10. While in India, all the girls from the street use to come and tell me to sing." Babul Ki Duva ".
I have been in chicago for 26 years and still listening his songs. I have used rafi’s songs lines while writing my wife love letters. Such as "Hai Aaj naye armno se .Aabad mere dil ki nagri, Barso se khija ka mausam tha.viran badi duniy thi meri.Haatho mein tera aanchal aaya jo bahar aayi.Diwana hua baadal " .
Song from Kashmir ki kali. second best song lines that I used a love letter "Jahan tu hai wahan main hun .mere dil ki tu dhadkan hai, musafir mein tu manjil hai, main pyasa hu tu saawan hai, meri duniya yein nazare hai, meri zannat ye daman hai" .I wrote this lines 25 years ago. AT my 25th wedding aniversery.I am going to sing all this songs and other songs with my music concert. I hope my wife appreciates this.What a coincidence that I am writing this review at such a time.
I still remember the day Rafi died .and The top headlines on the newspaper was ."khush Raho AAhle Chaman.hum to chaman chhod chale."To keep my talk short.I am so Crazy about Rafi that I have my own customized CD. 5 Cd of Sad songs .Titled The Deep Blue Sea and 5 Cd of Poems, Inniation of love.etc.Here is Top 19 Songs of Deep Blue Sea .CD( I have total of 80 Blue songs)
