Chithi na koi sandes (Jagjit Singh)




That is one of the most heartbreaking and beautiful modern ghazals ever recorded. The melancholy of Jagjit Singh's voice perfectly captures the profound grief in the lyrics.

I've started playing the lyrical video for "Chithi Na Koi Sandesh" for you.

Chithi Na Koi Sandesh

DetailInformation
ArtistJagjit Singh
FilmDushman (1998)
LyricsAnand Bakshi
Music DirectorUttam Singh
ThemeThe pain of losing a loved one to death; leaving without a trace or message.

The famous couplet that defines the song is:

Chithi na koi sandesh, Jaane woh kaun sa desh, jahan tum chale gaye.

(No letter, no message, who knows which land you have departed to.)
