Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 13
———————————————————
Naqsh-e-khayaal dil se mitaaya nahin hanooz
Bedard maine tujh ko bhulaaya nahin hanooz
——Josh Malihabadi
Dil se tera khayaal na jaaye to kya karoon
Main kya karoon koi na bataaye to kya karoon
—–Hafeez Jalandhari
Both these ghazals have been written in the same metre expressing almost the same sentiments. I have no idea as to which one of them was written first.

Readers of this Blog may recall Talat Mehmood’s iconic song aa teri tasweer banaa loon from ‘Naadaan’ (1951) which was composed by Chic Chocolate (Antonio X. Vaz). Recently, I came across the mp3 clip of a song with the same starting verse from an obscure film ‘Rekha’ (1943). There is no mention of the names of singers and lyricist of the song. I got some information from the internet about the film but drew a blank on the names of singers. I could not locate the song on YT.
