Likhe Jo Khat Tujhe Lyrics in Hindi:

लिखे जो ख़त तुझे
वो तेरी याद में
हज़ारों रंग के, नज़ारे बन गए-x2

सवेरा जब हुआ, तो फूल बन जायेंगे
जो रात आई तो, सितारे बन गए
लिखे जो ख़त तुझे

कोई नगमा कहीं गूंजा
कहां दिल ने, ये तू आई
कहिन चटकी काली कोई
मैं ये समझा, तू शरमायी
कोई खुशबू कहीं बिखरी
लगा ये जुल्फ लहराई

लिखे जो ख़त तुझे
वो तेरी याद में
हज़ारों रंग के, नज़ारे बन गए
सवेरा जब हुआ, तो फूल बन जायेंगे
जो रात आई तो, सितारे बन गए
लिखे जो ख़त तुझे

फ़िज़ा रंगीन, अदा रंगीन
ये इठलाना, ये शरमाना
ये अंगड़ायी, ये तन्हायी
ये तरसा कर, चलें जाना
बना दे गा नहीं किसको
जवान जादू ये दीवाना

लिखे जो ख़त तुझे
वो तेरी याद में
हज़ारों रंग के, नज़ारे बन गए
सवेरा जब हुआ, तो फूल बन जायेंगे
जो रात आई तो, सितारे बन गए
लिखे जो ख़त तुझे

जहां तू है वाहा मैं हूं
मेरे दिल की तू धड़कन है
मुसाफिर मैं तू मंजिल है
मैं प्यासा हूं तू सावन है

मेरी दुनिया ये नज़रें है
मेरी जन्नत ये दामन है
लिखे जो ख़त तुझे
वो तेरी याद में
हज़ारों रंग के, नज़ारे बन गए
सवेरा जब हुआ, तो फूल बन जायेंगे
जो रात आई तो, सितारे बन गए
लिखे जो ख़त तुझे

Likhe Jo Khat Tujhe Lyrics in English:

Likhe jo khat tujhe
Woh teri yaad mein
Hazaaron rang ke, nazaare ban gaye-x2

Sawera jab hua, to phool ban gayein
Jo raat aayi to, sitaare ban gayein
Likhe jo khat tujhe

Koi nagma kahin goonja
Kahan dil ne, ye tu aayi
Kahin chatki kali koi
Main ye samjha, tu sharmaayi
Koi khushboo kahin bikhri
Laga yeh zulf lehraai

Likhe jo khat tujhe
Woh teri yaad mein
Hazaaron rang ke, nazaare ban gayein
Sawera jab hua, to phool ban gayein
Jo raat aayi to, sitaare ban gaye
Likhe jo khat tujhe

Fiza rangeen, adaa rangeen
Yeh ithlaana, ye sharmaana
Ye angdaayi, ye tanhaayi
Yeh tarsa kar, chalein jaana
Bana de ga nahi kisko
Jawaan jadoo ye deewana

Likhe jo khat tujhe
Woh teri yaad mein
Hazaaron rang ke, nazaare ban gayein
Sawera jab hua, to phool ban gayein
Jo raat aayi to, sitaare ban gayein
Likhe jo khat tujhe

Jahan tu hai waha main hoon
Mere dil ki tu dhadkan hai
Musafir main tu manzil hain
Main pyasa hoon tu sawan hai

Meri duniya ye nazarein hai
Meri jannat ye daman hai
Likhe jo khat tujhe
Woh teri yaad mein
Hazaaron rang ke, nazaare ban gayein
Sawera jab hua, to phool ban gayein
Jo raat aayi to, sitaare ban gayein
Likhe jo khat tujhe

Music Composition & Raag Details:

The composition of “Likhe Jo Khat Tujhe” stands as a testament to the genius of the magical duo, Shankar-Jaikishan, who crafted a unique fusion of Western and Indian musical instruments. Shankar-Jaikishan imbued this song with a sense of freshness and timelessness:

• Orchestration: The song features a highly modern usage of guitars and drum beats—an approach that was remarkably ahead of its time for the 1960s.
• Rafi Sahab’s Vocals: The distinctive style in which Mohammed Rafi rendered the *mukhda* (refrain) and *antara* (verse) of “Likhe Jo Khat Tujhe” evokes a unique sense of excitement and joy in listeners.
• Rhythm: Its rhythm is incredibly catchy, making it a perennial favorite for weddings and parties even to this day.

Raag Details: Rather than being based on a single pure *raag* (musical mode), this song is crafted from a blend of several *raags*, most notably exhibiting the influence of *Raag Pilu* and *Raag Bhairavi*:

• Nature of the Raag: The playful vivacity of *Raag Pilu* combined with the inherent sweetness of *Raag Bhairavi* lends this song a distinctly romantic character.
• Mood (*Bhaav*): The song is brimming with *Shringar Ras* (the sentiment of romantic love). The innocence embedded in Neeraj Ji’s lyrics is further enhanced and accentuated by the judicious selection of these *raags*.
• Universal Appeal: It is precisely due to the subtle and accessible application of these *raags* that this song resonates equally with listeners across all age groups.
