Song Meaning of “Pyar Mujh Se Jo Kiya Tumne To Kya Paogi (Live)” by Jagjit Singh
This beloved romantic classic conveys the anguish of unrequited love and how the lover has been deceived by false promises. Based on the classic description of love being like a garden that wilts without the presence of the object of one’s love, the singer laments the damage done to their heart due to the lack of reciprocation of their feelings. The singer acknowledges and can feel their beloved’s pain, but is left wondering what the beloved will gain from the experience of breaking their heart—no healing, no growth, and no fruition of the promises made.
The melody of the song captures the fragile yet powerful emotions of the singer, and Jagjit Singh’s voice delicately emotes the sorrow and longing of the heartache without descent into melodrama. Ultimately the song is a tender expression of the timeless sentiments of heartbreak and is a reminder that what you give is not always what you get.
