Umrao Jaan: Justju Jiski Thi

brilliant

zindgai diakhyee kiya rang dikhatee hai haimain

laajawab

thanks for your effort for posting this song

this was a path breaking movie , i loved it so much , gone are those days , all we see nowadays is bullshit and stupid meaningless songs

i feel i am the actor of this tragedy. Life never tells your future, it is like wind, brings joy and sorrow

o sala............ye gana to mainy beh bohat suna hain...per gana haram hota hain......

What a ghazal-- soaked in tears and honey both. The profound loneliness and grief of those who were treated as nothing but playthings by philandering men and were condemned to stay in a world that they never chose is captured movingly by the lyric and Ashaji's divine voice. Is it possible to keep one's eyes dry while listening to this song? Not for me. Unfortunately, the world is still full of such victims.

sums up exactly how i feel right now
"Oh Life! It seems that I have seen you/only in my dreams

"Oh Life! It seems that I have seen you/only in my dreams

Jizz

No, I added these subtitles. They are my translations.

Hi, just curious but were these subtitles on the DVD because the vcersion I have does not have subtitles on the songs.

thanks for putting this master piece from ShaharYar sahab.... He s a great poet, 'm fortunate to have taught her daughter n medcal college.

Yeah, they're beautiful. I hope my subtitles have done them justice.

Thank you RaTheRed!

She's a character from a 19th century Urdu novel called "Umrao Jaan Ada" by Mirza Hadi Ruswa.

excellent lyrics and equally well sung by asha bhonsle

Id like to know more about Umrao Jaan. Is she a legend? There are many movies versions about her, but I think Rekha is the best.

i like the lyrics of the song...
