Kahaan tum chale gaye a tribute to jagjit singh

[Hardev Ashk]

I want to pay tribute to our beloved Ghazal King Jagjit Singh Ji through this composition. He has been my favourite and his contribution to the dynasty of Ghazal is unique. He brought out this gem of Urdu poetry from the fold of literary elite to a common man. His selections, compositions and semiclassical music made an ordinary person like me to appreciate ghazal . While his renditions will bring us joy forever, he will be sorely missed.

ZAMIN SE BAN SITAARA JAB, TU GAYA AASMAAN PAR
FRISHTON NE KIYE SAJDE, MEHFIL LAGAA VOHAAN PAR

KAHAAN TUM CHALE GAYE

“Kaagaz ki kashti “
paani, meiN bahaakar
bachpan hameiN
fir yaad kraakar

tum ban gaye sabhke meet
kahaaN tum chale gaye

“HoNThoN se CHoo lo”
prem geet gayaa jab
duniya ko apna
deewaana banaaya tab

har dil meiN bharke preet
kahaaN tum chale gaye

Nida, Faakar aur Ghalib
kayaa Shiv, aur Shafaai
tere laboN ne di vo taraz
mast ho gayi saari khudaayi

ham haare tum gaye jeet
kahaaN tum chale gaye

ghazal bani dulhan
aur tum dulhe raja
baraati ‘Ashk’ duniya ajab samya toone baaNdha

tum kahaan gaye Jagjit
kahaaN tum chale gaye.

Meet- friend, Jagjit’s favorite shayers: Nida-Nida Fazli, Faakar-Sudarshan Faakar, Shafaai-Qateel Shafaai, Shiv-Shiv Bataalvi

aapko yahaaN dekh kar badi khushi hui, bohat saal pehle ebazm par aapko padha karta tha

Jagjit Singh jee's departure has left a gaping hole in the hearts of millions of Ghazal lovers, the first Ghazal i ever heard was "maiN aur meri tanhaaye" and i was introduced to this wonderful and amazing world of poetry, i have been an addict ever since he will indeed be missed forever

Thank you so much for this post

Janaab Maikash Sahib: adaab. kaise han aap. ebzam aur Sawf se hi maine apna sharyri ka safar internet pe shuru kiya. mujhe yaad aap bh us mehfilmein aate the. So how is life treating you. I had some sentimental thoughts about jagjit Ji that I wanted to share with my friends at shayri.com. I am glad you also have similar feelings. How is life in Leeds? Milte rahiye
