TUM NAHIN GHAM NAHIN - JAGJIT SINGH




tum nahin ghum nahin sharab nahin
aisi tanhaee ka jawab nahin

gahe-gahe ise padha keejay 
dil se behatar koi kitaab nahin

jane kis kis ki maut aayee hai
aaj rukh pe koi naquab nahin

wo karam ungliyon pe ginte hain
(dha ni re sa re ma dha ni sa dha ni pa ga)
zulm ka jinke kuchh hisab nahin.

POONKAATRU THIRUMBUMA - MUDHAL MARIYADHAI



MEGAME MEGAME - PALAIVANA CHOLAI



This song is in the hindustani raga KAFI, which is not to be confused with the carnatic raga Kapi. It is the hindustani equivalent to our Karaharapriya, in scale, and there ends the similarity. We have KAFI thaat, which is one of the principal ten thaats in Hindustani music.
