I did not know anything about Sajjad Hussain, when i started visiting this site, or may be the name had never registered just like i never knew the name of some other composers like Husnlal Bhagatram, though i knew some of their songs.
Regarding Sajjad Hussain the only song i was familiar with (It seems) was this :

When i saw the video again i remembered watching it on T. V..
The other version of the song by Madan Mohan, https://atulsongaday.wordpress.com/2009/02/26/mujhe-darde-dil-ka-pata-na-tha/, has been a personal favourite for unknown reasons, i do not remember since when. As years passed i have sometimes confused either one or the other songs with another song , namely,

Thanks to this blog and the knowledged contributors here i have a fair idea of why he is referred as “the legendary composer Sajjad Hussain”( I have heard a couple of time on “Times recall”).
Despite lack of success and other difficulties, Madan Mohan has left quite a mark on Hindi Film music with more than decent body of work, in terms of volume also and with a individual/signature style of composing.
It seems Sajjad Hussain was not able to realise his potential in terms of out put and resultant success. That is why he is referred to as “legendary” who never actually arrived, was only famed as a composer’s composer.

I think the first two lines of the song read like this ‘husn valon se kabhi aankh milaya na karo jaan pyari hai to phir saamne aaya na karo’. Then the song starts with ‘bhari mehfil mein lut jate hain jalwa dekhnewale’. kindly correct the typo mistake in the last word.

Atul ji,
RUKHSANA(1955),a Talwar films production was a Historical costume drama,produced and directed by R.C.Talwar.Music by Sajjad Hussain,the lyrics were of Khumar Barabankvi,Shakeel Badayuni and Tanvir Naqvi.
The cast included Meena Kumari,Kishore kumar,Shammi,Sunder,Madan Puri,Randhir,kumkum,Amar etc.
Revolt,if successful,changes history,if failure,is called a Mutiny. It is a story of Princess Rukhsana,who helps the rebel leader Badal(Kishore kumar),who is leading the revolt against the oppressive Prime Minister Khalid(Madan Puri).
Rukhsana is caught red handed,tried and sentenced Death by hanging.
The story details how rhe rebels rescue Rukhsana,kill the Prime Minister and establish a happy kingdom.
Rukhsana was the first and the last film where Kishore kumar sang under the baton of Sajjad Hussain.As such Sajjad never considered Kishore as a good singer.He used to call Kishore Kumar ” SHOR KUMAR “(and Talat Mehmood as ” GALAT MEHMOOD “).
