1) AAP KO BHOOL JAAYEN HUM, ITNE TO BEWAFA NAHIN
http://www.mastimag.com/download.php?song_id=43933
Aap ko bhool jaayen hum itne to bewafa nahin
I cannot forget you for cheating on me
Aapse kya gila karein? Aapse kuch gila nahin
What complaints can I have against you?... none
Sisha-e-dil ko todna unka to ek khel hai
This glasslike heart is like a game for you
Humse ye bhool ho gayee unke koi khata nahin
It was my mistake and you are blameless
Kaash wo apne gham mujhe de den to kuch sukoon mile
Had you given me your woes I would have been much relief
Wo kitna bad-naseeb hai, gam hee jise mila nahin
Lucky are those that do not get a heartache from you
Jurm hai gar wafa to kya, kyoon kar wafa ko shod doo
Crime of unfaithfulness, should I be loyal and forget?
Kehte hain is gunaah kee hoti koi saza nahin
There is no punishment for this crime.
Aapse kya gila karein? Aapse kuch gila nahin
What complaints can I have against you?... none
Aap ko bhool jaayen hum itne to bewafa nahin
I cannot forget you for cheating on me

Chitra Singh met Jagjit Singh in Mumbai (then known as Bombay), India, in the late 1960s, and they started a musical career together by singing jingles for various advertisements. Their career took off with the launching of The Unforgettables, an album with several firsts to its credit. Their public singing before large audiences revolutionized ghazal singing. Until then, ghazal singing had been confined to musical performances ("mehfils") before small audiences consisting primarily of the elite in the society.
The duo composed and sang songs for Hindi, Punjabi and Bengali albums. They contributed to devotional music by releasing albums which included Krishna, Chirag, Hey Ram, and Shabads. Krishna is one of the largest-selling titles in its category

2) AWARA HAIN GALIYON MEIN
http://www.mastimag.com/download.php?song_id=43932
Aawaara Hai Galiyon Mein, Main Aur Meri Tanhayi
Wonders are in your street, I am alone in my lonliness
Jaayein Toh Kahaan Jaayein Har Mod Pe Rusawaayi
Where do we go? there is disdain at every turn
Main Aur Meri Tanhayi
I am alone in my lonliness
Yeh Phul Se Chehare Hai, Hasate Huye Ghuldaste Hain
These beautiful faces are like laughing bouquet
Koyi Bhi Nahi Apana Begaane Hai Sab Raste
No one belongs to me, all paths are unknown
Raahein Bhi Tamashayi
Even the paths laugh at me
Main Aur Meri Tanhayi
I am alone in my lonliness
Armaan Sulagate Hain Sine Mein Chita Jaise
Desires burn in my heart like a funeral pyre
Kaatil Najar Aati Hai, Duniya Ki Hawa Jaise
Gaze of the world pierces me like a wind of swords
Roti Hai Mere Dil Par, Bajati Huyi Shehnayi
Even the tunes of shehnai pains my heart
Main Aur Meri Tanhaayi
I am alone in my lonliness
Aakaash Ke Maathe Par Taron Ka Chara Hai
Pehalu Mein Magar Mere Jakhmon Ka Gulista Hai
Aankhon Se Lahu Tapaka Daaman Mein Bahaar Aayi
Main Aur Meri Tanhayi
I am alone in my lonliness

3 KYON ZINDAGI KI RAAH MEIN
http://www.mastimag.com/download.php?song_id=44225
kyon jindagee kee raah men, majaboor ho gaye
itane hue kareeb ke ham door ho gaye
Why did I became helpless on the path of life
We were so near to each other, now we are far away
Aaisaa naheen ke ham ko koi bhee khushee naheen
Lekin ye jindagee to koi jindagee naheen
Kyon isake faisale hame manjoor ho gaye
It is not that I do not have any happiness
But this life is not a life
Why did I agree to its decisions
Itane hue kareeb ke ham door ho gaye
Kyon jindagee kee raah men, majaboor ho gaye
We were so near to each other, now we are far away
Why did I became helpless on the path of life
Paayaa tumhe to ham ko lagaa, tum ko kho diyaa
Ham dil pe roye aur ye dil ham pe ro diyaa
Palakon se khwaab kyon gire, kyon choor ho gaye
When we became together I felt that I was losing you
I cried with my heart and my heart cried for me
Why did this dreams slip from me, why did it shatter
Itane hue kareeb ke ham door ho gaye
Kyon jindagee kee raah men, majaboor ho gaye
We were so near to each other, now we are far away
Why did I became helpless on the path of life

4) MERE DUKH KI KOI DAWA NA KARO
http://www.mastimag.com/download.php?song_id=43815
Mere dukh ki koi dawa na karo
Mujhko mujhse abhi juda na karo
Na-khuda ko khuda kaha hai to fir
Doob jaao khuda-khuda na karo
Ye sikhaya hai dosthi ne hame
Dosth bankar kabhi wafa na karo
Ishq hai ishq ye mazaq nahi
Chand lamho me faishlaa na karo
Aashiqi ho ke bandagi fakir
Be-dili se to ye fida na karo

Jis mod par kiye the hum intezaar barso
Jis mod par kiye the hum intezaar barso
Us se lipat ke roye, diwana-waar barso
Us se lipat ke roye, diwana-waar barso
Jis mod par kiye theTum gulsitan se aaye zikre khizan hilaye
Tum gulsitan se aaye zikre khizan hilaye
Humne kafas mein dekhi
Humne kafas mein dekhi fasle bahaar barso
Jis mod par kiye the hum intezaar barso
Jis mod par kiye theHoti rahee hai yun to barsat aasuo kee
Hoti rahee hai yun to barsat aasuo kee
Uthte rahe hain phir bhi
Uthte rahe hain phir bhi dil se gubaar barso
Jis mod par kiye the hum intezaar barso
Jis mod par kiye theWo sang-e-dil tha koi begana-e-wafa tha
Wo sang-e-dil tha koi begana-e-wafa tha
Karte rahen hai jiska
Karte rahen hai jiska hum intezaar barso
Jis mod par kiye the hum intezaar barso
Jis mod par kiye the.
