Hindi Film Lyrics - Outstanding Gems

Prem ke dukh mein Doob gaya dil Jaise jal mein gagariya - Raja Mehndi Ali Khan (ANITA / Laxmikant Pyarelal) Use of simili Jaise Jal mein Gagariya

Jeevan dor tumhin sang baandhi Kya todenge is bandhan ko Jag ke toofan, aandhi re aandhi -  Bharat Vyas (SATI SAVITRI / Laxmikant Pyarelal ) Beautiful thought and the rhyming of baandhi / aandhi.

Jal jo na hotaa to ye jag jaata jal and Khula khula gagan ye hari-bhari dharti Jitna bhi dekhoon tabiyat nahin bharti - Ravindra Jain (Geet Gata Chal / Ravindra Jain) The play on 'jal' in the first one, and the rhyming of dharti / bharti in the second one.

Hindi film industry has been graced by several outstanding poets and shayars who have given countless outstanding songs. Here we will bring out some gems of hindi film lyrics. Of course, the list can never be comprehensive and is entirely my own preference. Meri mohabbat mein taseer hai to khich kar mere paas aaoge tum - Bharat Vyas (Tere sur aur mere geet / Goonj Uthi Shehnai / Vasant Desai ) Usko nahin dekha hamne kabhi par iski zaroorat kya hogi Ai maa ai maa teri soorat se alag bhagwaan ki soorat kya hogi - Majrooh Sultanpuri (Dadi maa / Roshan)
