My way of paying tribute to this phenom, is by the way of my first ever contribution to ITRANS. The tough part was picking a masterpiece that was composed by CR(it had to be:-)) and not already in ITRANS. Since my favorite songs from YASMIN were already in ITRANS (Neha beat me to it - DAMN:-() so I decided to pick a song from yet another desert-island album from CR.

This song is from Kidar Sharma's JHANJHAR. Although the movie was not successful, it had some really tremndous Lata songs. My personal favorite is a song in the Radha-Krishna genre, which Lata/CR excelled at. The interesting thing about the way this song is composed is that CR uses a different melodic structure for the last line in each 'antara' than for the rest of the song. The song is essentially a love song (or with a slight strech of imagination can be called a 'bhajan':-)), but the last line(albeit repeated 5-6 times) of the antaras is tuned like a 'mujra' in a faster pace than the rest 
of the song. Lata's singing is supreme, as usual. Her
nuances/intonations/inflections in a CR song are to be heard to be believed. Her singing and CR's tuning makes this song YAM (yet another masterpeice) from the Lata/CR team.

Here are the lyrics. I'm ITRANS-illiterate, so please excuse any errors. Also, my memory is 'tainted', so corrections to lyrics, p-stats will be appreciated.
