I had the pleasure of listening to Mehdi Hassan in a private mehfil in St Louis,MO,USA. The program was arranged by one of my friends in the basement of his house in 1980's when Khan Sahib was visiting USA.There is nothing like being in a private mehfil with small group of Ghazal loving people.It will remain one of the best experience of my life . May God bless his soul. Jamil St Louis,MO.USA
MEHDI HASSAN, IS IN REALITY THE FOUNDER OF ACTUAL GHAZAL IN THE WORLD... NO ONE WAS IS AND MAYBE OR MAY NOT BE IN FUTURE LIKE HIM... RESPECT HIM, LOVE HIM, MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE...
There wont.be anghazal singer of his calibre.He had a.distinct style of singing and breathed life into his songs.No wonder he was known as the shehenshah of ghazals..
Bilkul। Sahi kaha bhai mohammad Abhi ७० saal to ho chuke hai inki jodi ka koi gayak nahi hua ab tak Hindustani music ke ye ustad hai Gazal ke shehensha 👏👏👏🙏
Pure bliss to listen to his thoughts and singing. Hard to imagine if ever there will be another like him. He towers over every ghazal singer. His renditions are magical and hypnotic at times.
Dil, ruh jism aur jo kuch bhi hai sab ko sukun naseeb ho gaya, kya awaz hai, fariste ko hum duniya walon kaha pehchan paye? agar ho jaye naseeb se , umr bhar Khan sahab ko sunte rahe aur ansu bahate rahe,.
Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Jeet le jaaye koi mujhko naseebo wala Zindgi ne mujhe daao pe lagaa rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool.. Jaane kab dil mein koi jhaanknewala aajayein Isliye maine girebaan khula rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool.. Imtehaan aur mere zabt ka tum kya loge Maine dhadkan ko bhi seene mein chupa rakhaa hai.. Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool.. Dil tha ek shola magar beet gaye din wo “Qateel” Ab kuredo na ise raakh mein kya rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool zulfon mein sajaa rakhaa hai Ek diya hai jo andheron mein jala rakhaa hai Tu ne yeh phool..
तूने ये फूल जो ज़ुल्फ़ों में सजा रखा है इक दिया है जो अंधेरों में जला रखा है जीत ले जाये कोई मुझको नसीबों वाला ज़िंदगी ने मुझे दाँव पे लगा रखा है जाने कब दिल में कोई झाँकने वाला आ जाये इस लिये मैंने गिरेबान खुला रखा है इम्तिहाँ और मेरे ज़ब्त का तुम क्या लोगे मैंने धड़कन को भी सीने में छुपा रखा है दिल था इक शोला मगर बीत गये दिन वो 'क़तील' अब कुरेदो ना इसे राख़ में क्या रखा है
What a soulful voice - a bit husky but it common people's voice. And what a heavenly lyrics. Three musical legends from Pakistan - Mehdi Hasanji, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Sab aur Ghulam Ali Sab. Hats off to all three
I always think that there is so much weightage in the lyrics of the Ghazal . It's probably the highest grade of Urdu language. Even people who know Urdu, can get confused. Such terrific singing. This Ghazal is actually a bit simple without the improvisations . But from a literal meaning it's not simple .
In 2024, I am now into ghazal. I am 50 , and wish to be with it for the rest of my life. I am from Kolkata and missed any opportunity to be in his times very close to him.
heyy i am 16 year old boy from patna, i am soo much into gazals.. i feel soo much divinity in these gazals. glad to meet people like me who love gazals
Haye haye its 9.42 am, whole night I been listening this along with 2 other by Mehdi Hassan Marhoom . They say there's just one moon, one sun and one Mehdi g. May your soul rest in peace
I had the good fortune to listen to the Maestro in the UK in the 80s, and have been totally inspired by his singing. I also sing a little, and love singing Khan sbs ghazals. The other maestro I adore is Ustad Ghulam Ali. These two legends are my favourite all time singers. They are just phenomenal. No one comes close. ❤❤❤
Filmy gaana to lakir ke fakir hota hai ! 😂 kya khub kaha hai aapne ! ❤️ His rendition n he will remain the top fav amongst all singers that lived and still are on this planet .
Quadar bhai, This has been my very favourite Ghazal of khan saheb. Have been listening to this since 1990s. This perhaps is the best version. Great. No words for him. His music is divine and you can say that the renditions come straight from almighty, Ishwar allah.
I am very thankful to my father who introduced Mehdi Hassan sb when i was only six year old. After listening him i learned how to behave with loved ones.
Hi iam from Chennai, India a urdu speaking muslim name is afsar shareef, i am really fortunate i think that i had a chance to be part of the live concert of khan saheb about 18 yrs b ack. i was a kid, after that khan sahab never came to chennai. MY only regret is and will be that after he fell sick the Pakistani govertnment or any well wishers in the world never bothered to give him the best treatment. What is the use of we talking about him so much now. even for that matter
dont know how many times i have listen...this ghazal ...... in these days may be daily at night तूने ये फूल जो ज़ुल्फ़ों में सजा रखा है इक दिया है जो अंधेरों में जला रखा है जीत ले जाये कोई मुझको नसीबों वाला ज़िंदगी ने मुझे दाँव पे लगा रखा है जाने कब दिल में कोई झाँकने वाला आ जाये इस लिये मैंने गिरेबान खुला रखा है इम्तिहाँ और मेरे ज़ब्त का तुम क्या लोगे मैंने धड़कन को भी सीने में छुपा रखा है दिल था इक शोला मगर बीत गये दिन वो 'क़तील' अब कुरेदो ना इसे राख़ में क्या रखा है
i got a private mehfil recording of khan sahib mehdi hassan which was held in st louis in 1984.i will post couple of ghazals from that mehfil so that you can figure it out that its the same mehfil you attended or a different one. i had been to st louis only once in 1994 during summer time and still remember how hot and humid it was.
All are masters Q.sifai sahab the writer Mehdi Hasan sahab the singer Coriographer & production house Filling proud for these masters everytime whenever we listen Thanks
Allah iss se upper bhi kuch ho sakta hay. Feeling really blessed that we have gems like him who are still mesmerising us with their beautiful voice,even though they are gone but they will live forever.
A true music mastrio... I had the prestige of listening to him in live show twice in my life. I was a student and poor at that time, but I knew I had to do it ... I charged it on my American Express card..😅 And of course I snuck in back stage too and got his autograph which I treasure to this day... and will pass it on to my children as my legacy.. I don't have anything else as valuable to pass on to them.
Bahut sari dil ki achhi achhi baten suna kar bade achhe mood mein Khan Sahib ne ise gaya hai ,to ismein kuchh alag hi maza hai. Rare one ! Thanks for uploading.
Dear brother thanks for this rare version. This is one of my most favorite masterpieces of khan sahib. thanks. I also regret extremely that I could not attend the concert of khan sahib in my life. Thanks to you, Mois bhai and all fans of khan sahib that you have gifted this wonderful heritage on youtube for all die hard fans of ustad sahib.

We have good fortune to listen you. You and your marvellous singing of ghazals have kept your memories in crores of listeners. King of ghazals Mehdi Hassan Khan Saheb.
ग़ज़ब। सुर सम्राट के सुरो से सुन्दर कलाकृति जो मन ह्रदय में बन जाती है उसको बनाया या जताया नहीं सकता कितनी सुनंदा कल्पना बजती है इन्हें सुनकर जिस का कोई भी उदाहरण अभी तक मिला नही और ना ही मिलेगा । कोटि नमन
Sublime ! Serene ! Soothing ! Soulful ! The great Mehdi Hassan Saab was the synonyme of soft, soothing, and soulful music ! Professionalism, perfection, and sophistication in performance was the hallmark of the great Khan Saab ! His style of gayiki was pretty simple, soft, effortless, soothing, and soulful but overbearing and very difficult to emulate ! The great Mehdi Hassan Saab had given ghazal gayiki a pedestal, which will be very difficult to surpass ! Personally speaking, I consider myself to be extremely lucky to have born during the lifetime of this legendary singer ! Such a resourceful singer will ever tread this path again in the world !
Jannat nashin singer mehndi Hassan Sahab ki ruhani aawaj ishwer ya khuda ki aawaj ka hi namuna ya misal hai .injki gayki ke liye Sanskrit language ki ek kahavat bilkul sahi hai ......na bhoti na bhavisyati ....yani Hassan Sahab jesa gayak na inse pahle khabhi hua hua hai na future mein khabi hoga .I also like to sing some gazal,s of Hassan Sahab .I play Hassan Sahab,s famous gazal ..... mujhe tum nazar se gira tou rahe ho....on mouthorgan..... mouthorgan player and you tuber Ajmer Sharif..rajasthan..india .
No comparison man! Even jagjeet singh started his career singing Mehdi hassan's ghazals (you can watch them on RU-vid), Mehdi had beautiful voice and he was master of Hindustani classical music, He belongs to 600 hundred years old singing gharana! He was marwari muslim from jodhpur, After partition he came to Pakistan!
