Luckily(or unluckily) my heart is not broken yet, but there's always song for every occasion.
I belive half the songs in bollywood movies are love songs and the other half sad ones. so many to choose from. I would stick to my favourite old songs which I hum whenever I am sad. atleast try to feel the pain of a failed love.
1.Ya dil ki suno duniyawalo
Movie: Anupama(1966)
Music: hemant Kumar
Lyrics: Kaifi azmi
Singer: Hemant kumar
I wonder if any other sad song can reach this level. Hemant kumar with his music and his mystical voice has given a masterpiece . beautiful heart wrenching https://lyrics. watch the movie to appreciate the song better.
I just wanted to include a paragraph of this song's lyrics but which one?. all are too good.
yaa dil kee suno duniyaawaalon
yaa muz ko abhee choop rahane do
mai gam ko khushee kaise kah doo
jo kahate hain unako kahane do
ye fool chaman mein kaisaa khilaa
maalee kee najar mein pyaar nahee
hasate huye kyaa kyaa dekh liyaa
ab bahate hain aansoo bahane do
yek khwaab khushee kaa dekhaa nahee
dekhaa jo kabhee to bhool gaye
maangaa huaa tum kuchh de naa sake
jo tum ne diyaa wo sahane do
kyaa dard kisee kaa legaa koee
itanaa to kisee mein dard nahee
bahate huye aansoo aaur bahe
ab ayesee tasallee rahane do
2.Meri yaad mein tum
Movie: madhosh(1951)
Music: Madan mohan
Lyrics: raja mehdi ali khan
Singer: talat mehmood
Composed by classy Madan Mohan, this beautiful sad song sung by ghazal king - talat mehmood touches your heart. Talat has sung fewer song but almost all of them are of astronomical quality. one more song of talat in similar mood which I like a lot is:'Aye dil mujhe aisi jagah le chal(aarzoo-1948- music by anil biswas)
meri yaad mein tum na aansu bahana
na dil ko jalaana mujhe bhool jaana,
samajh na ke thaa ek sapna suhana.
3.Teri yaad dilse
Movie: Hariyali aur raasta(1962)
Music: Shankar jaikishan
Lyrics: shailendra
Singer: Mukesh
This stands as one of my favourites of mukesh. It makes me feel really sad. Disappointed Manoj kumar feeling nostalgic in the movie walks humming this song.
All the songs of the movie are beautiful.
Terii Yaad Dil Se, Bhulaane Chalaa Huu.
Ke Khud Apanii Hastii, Mitaane Chalaa Huu.
Terii Yaad .
4. Raha Gardishon mein
Movie: Do badan(1966)
Music: Ravi
Lyrics: Shakeel Badayuni
Gem of a song from Badayuni.person's distress cant be worse and cannot be described better.
rahaa gardishon mein haradam mere ishk kaa sitaaraa
kabhee dagamagaayee kashtee, kabhee kho gayaa kinaaraa
koee dil ke khel dekhe, ke mohabbato kee baajee
wo kadam kadam pe jeete, main kadam kadam pe haaraa
ye humaaree badanaseebee, jo naheen to aaur kyaa hai
ke usee ke ho gaye hum jo naa ho sakaa humaaraa
pade jab gamon se paale, rahe mit ke mitane waale
jise maut ne naa poochhaa, use jindagee ne maaraa
5.Dil ne pyaar kiya hey ek bewafaa se
Movie: Shararat(1972)
Music: Ganesh
Lyrics: Hasrat Jaipuri
singer: Mohd. rafi
This I would rate as one of my all time favourites for sheer intensity of Rafi's Voice
picturised on Biswajit and Mumtaz(i guess), its a master pice from lesser known music director Ganesh and penned by Hasrat jaipuri
I have included a para . its awesome.
Dil Ne Pyar Kiya Hai Ek Bewafa Se,
Pachtaarahen Hein.
Dil Hamara Tha, Humne Haara Tha.
Tum Pe Waara Tha.,
Dil Ne Pyar Kiya Hai Ek Bewafa Se.
Dil Ne Pyar Kiya Hai Ek Bewafa Se.
Ay Gulbadan Sabse Mumtaaz Thi Tum,
Mahal Pyar Kaa Ik Banaya Tha Maine.,
Yeh Kiski Nazar Se Jala Aashiyaana,
Bade Naaz Se Ghar Sajaayatha Maine,
Luti Zindagi, Miti Bandagi. Mili Bekasi.
Dil Hamara Tha, Humne Haara Tha.
Tum Pe Waara Tha.,
I have not included some of really good songs of Kishore da. or any new song.as I had to choose only 5.
