This song from 'aagosh' is not only one of the very best of Lata, but also of Roshan. Vish said in his rmim tape that Roshan's compositions were complex but had a simple presentation. This is an exception. Here, the presentation is also extremely complex and it takes an artist of immense talent to pull this off. It is hard to put in words the effect of this song. One has to hear it to know what a masterpiece it is. Yet, this is not my #1 Lata/Roshan song! Goes to show the incredible talent of Roshanlal. 

 'aagosh' is a tremendous soundtrack and I will probably get to the rest of the songs from this soundtrack after I am done with 'kahzana'. Unless, of course, Hrishi or someone else volunteers.

 bachaa daaman zamaane 

 nahii.n maaluum kya manzuur hai taqadiir ko merii 
 taqadiir ko merii \-2
 kaTe hai.n aaj tak rote mere saawan suhaane
 bachaa daaman zamaane 

 muhabbat ek sholaa hai \threedots

 bahe aa.nsuu ha.nsii qisamat lute aramaan bhii mere
