Main Gaoon Tum So Jaao Sukh sapno main so jaao Main Gaoon Tum So Jaao...
Maana Aaaj Ki Rat Hai Lambi Maana Din Tha Bhari Par Jag Badla Badlegi Ek Din Taqdeer Hamari Us din key Khwab Sajao Main Gao tum so jao....
This song sung by Rafi Sahab for orphan children had a big impact on my thinking, career and life too. When I took up work with street and working chilren, I understood the pain Shammi Kapoor undergoes in arranging resources for them. And Rafi Sahabs words really exhibit that pain. These words exhibits pain that we all the time undergo.
On his death anniversary, I dedicate these lines from Mirza Ghalib to him:
Hain aye falak-e-peer jawan that abhi arif; kya tera bigarta jo na marta koi din aur. Tum aisey kharey kaun sey they dad-o-sitad key; ke na karta malakul maut takada koi din aur.
