jab jindegi mein hosla past ho jatey hai us waqt Rafi sahab yaad dilate hai chal Musafir teri manjil dur hai to kya hua ,dekh tera pao thak kar chur hai to kya hua,jab koi apna humsafar is dunia aeifani ko albida kehte hai tab rafi sab ki nagma hamesha gunjte hai Chal ur jare panchi tera desh hua begana,jab 15th august din ata tab ek hi awaz ruh mein
gunjtey hai gar chaley hum fida janotan sathio ,ab tumarey hawaley wayan sathio,ek misaal sachha Hinduatani Ka,main bachpansehi sirf aur sirf rafi saab ki dewana.
hu. ek hi afsos rehe gaeye jindegimein ek jhalak rafi sahab ko Deeder nehi karney ki.

Rafi’s voice is a God gift, His singing is a gift to God, who ever said that, said it right . Cant be described any better than that, Talking about Rafi makes me very emotional. I love all his songs No singer, male or female can come anywhere near Him . from No1 to 10 its Rafi and it will always be Rafi.As Lata said singers Like Rafi, Bar bar janam nahi lete. I think singers like Rafi can never die.His songs his voice is divine . Rafi Sahab Farishtey Hain.

I was born in 1960 in a middle class Bengali family. My late father was a good singer. We used to hear lot of songs from radio but all were bengali songs. Several great singers were available in Bengal during those days. Till 1972-73, I had practically no idea about Md. Rafi. In the year 1974, on the day of Saraswati Puja (during February) I first heard the song Yeh Duniya Yeh Mahfil. I was so mesmerished that I can not explain. For the first time in my life I felt an inexplicable joy deep inside my heart. I started crying. I asked my Didi (who is reasonably good singer) about the singer and she told me about Md. Rafi. That was time of Rajesh Khanna and Kishore Kumar. That day was the turning point in my life. Since that day, I developed deepest love for Rafi saab. I am a senior officer of ONGC, so for office work I visited Mumbai several times and almost everytime I have visited Rafi Saabs grave and put flowers. During young days I used to say “God take me, give Rafi back” but now-a-days I tell everybody that excepting Rafi saab all other singers (Nurzahan to Shreya Ghosal and from Saigal to Sonu Nigam) had God gifted voices but Rafi saab’s voice was God’s own voice. On 4th October’s Times of India (Kolkata edition), Manna Dey gave an interview after being selected for Dada Saheb Phalke award. The heading of the article was “Rafi was a better singer that me.” Salute to Manna Dey for accepting the fact.

Main ne first time is site ke bare main suna tha, Mera ek friend tha jis se aksar inke bare mein batein hua karti thi.Main ek Banker hoon, kaam ke bheer mein ab sochne ka samay nahi milta.phir bhi jab bhi main kaam se thak jata hoon,Rafi saheb ke naghmon ko sunne ke baad kafi shukun mikta hai. Ham to inke kafi purane diwane hain.
Aaj is site ko dekhne ke baad us dost ki bhi yaad aa rahi hai,jo hame shayad bhool chuka hoga.

Rafi saheb ki awaz mein jab bhi sunta hoon…
“tum mujhe yoon bhula na paoge……….”
kitni sachchai hai is geet mein.

inke bare mein bahut sare logon ne bahut kuchchh kaha..
main adna sa admi kya kahoon,mere sabd chhote hain unki baat kahne ke liye..

zarif saheb aap ki achchhi koshish hai,allah aap ke koshish ko kamyab banaye………..amin

Rafi sahib was above religious, race, cast, political, national and even commercial differences. As a Rafi-family friend, and neighbour in London, for over 50 years, I am honoured to have met the most humble, honourable and modest man that I ever knew in my whole lifetime. Rafi still continues to entertain millions around the world. That make Rafi and his voice immortal. He politely refused to copy other singers in case they get offended. “Kehta hai koi dil gaya dil bar gaya. Sahil hai pukarta samandar chala gaya. Jo baat sach hai kehta nahin koi, keh es dunya se musiqi ka payambar chala gaya,” according to one tribute to Rafi sahib by the great poet Gulzar. That sums up the late great singer Mohammed Rafi. So, is it fair to compare him with others, alive or dead? Some of his best songs are available subscription free at http://www.youtube.com/spsyed â€“ a website dedicated to the entertainers and their fans. Enjoy, comment, rate, provide feedback, subscribe, join as friends, and share it far and wide.

Everybody is fond of listing to Mohammad Rafi but Mohammad Rafi himself was fond of listing songs of Manna De.

Salam. I thank to Mr. Zarif for placing the memories of Rafi Sahab on web. It is a great tribute to him.
Hazaron saal Nargis apni benoori pe rota hai
Tab ja ke hota hai Chaman mein Deedawar Paida.

Infact Rafi Sahab was the Kohinoor Diamond of the World of Music.
