Mohammed Rafi (Hindi: मोहम्मद रफ़ी, Urdu: محمد رفیع; December 24, 1924 July 31, 1980), often addressed as Rafi Sahib, was an Indian playback singer whose career spanned four decades and is one of the most versatile male singers in the history of Indian cinema. Rafi sang in many Indian languages including Hindi, Urdu, Bhojpuri, Punjabi, Bengali, Marathi, Sindhi, Kannada and Telugu. He also recorded English and Persian songs. He is primarily remembered, however, for his Hindi songs, which still remain very popular in India today and also among the Indian diaspora. He dominated the Bollywood music industry from the 1950s to the 1970s along with Mukesh, Manna Dey, and Kishore Kumar.
Between 1950 and 1970, Rafi was one of the most sought after singers in Bollywood.
In 1965, he was honoured by the Government of India with the Padma Sri award.
On Thursday, July 31, 1980, Rafi died at 10:50 p.m., following a massive heart attack. His last song was "Shaam phir kyun udaas hai dost" (Aas Paas), which he had recorded with Laxmikant-Pyarelal couple of days before his death. He was survived by four sons (Saeed Rafi, Khalid Rafi, Hamid Rafi, Shahid Rafi), 3 daughters (Parveen, Nasreen, Yasmin) and 18 grandchildren. Naushad wrote on Rafi's Death- " Goonjte hai teri awaz ameero ke mahal me. jhopro ki gharibon me bhi hay tere saaz, yu to apne mousiki par sab ka fakr hota hai magar ay mere saathi mousiki ko bhi aaz tujh paar naaz hai "
Rafi's funeral procession was recorded on a very rainy day in Mumbai. A portion of that same recording has been used in one of the Hindi movie released later. It was one of the biggest funeral processions mumbai had ever witnessed, with over 10,000 people attending.
The Padma Shri Mohammed Rafi Chowk in the Bandra suburb of Mumbai is named after Rafi. Lata Mangeshkar quotes on Rafi- " saral man ke insan Rafisab, bahut suriley the, yea meri khus kismati hai ke maine unke saath sabse jada gana gaye. gana kaise bhi wo aise ga lete the ke gana na samajhne wale bhi bah bah kar utht te the. Aise gayak bar bar janam nahi lete."
A documentary about Rafis life is under production by The Films Division of India.
On September 22, 2007 a shrine to Rafi designed by artist Tasawar Bashir was unveiled in Birmingham. Bashir is hoping that Rafi will attain sainthood as a result.

LYRICS BELOW aishwarya rai anil kapoor HAMARA DIL aapke PAAS HAI

Baat Ab Yeh Hi Khaas Hai
Aapka Dil Hamare Paas Hai
Hamara Dil aapke Paas Hai
Aapka Dil Hamare Paas Hai
Hamara Dil aapke Paas Hai
aapke Paas Hai
Kya Aapko Ehsaas Hai
Yeh Kyoon Aaj Resham Si Hai Roshni
Yeh Kya Geet Sa In Hawaaon Mein Hai
Tumhe Chooke Resham Hui Roshni
Mere Dil Ki Dhadkan Fizaaon Mein Hain
Baheke Baheke Kayee Dil Mein Jazbaat Hai
Jaagi Jaagi Koi Ankahee Pyaas Hai
Aapka Dil Hamare Paas Hai
Hamara Dil aapke Paas Hai
aapke Paas Hai
Woh Badal Utarne Lage Jheel Mein
Parinde Darafton Pe Gaane Lage
Jo Tum Humsafar Ho To Ay Humsafar
Hamein Saari Manzar Suhaani Lage
Manzilon Se Gale Raaste Mil Gaye
Sapne Sach Ho Gaye, Poori Har Aas Hai
Aapka Dil Hamare Paas Hai
Hamara Dil aapke Paas Hai
Aapka Dil Hamare Paas Hai
Hamara Dil aapke Paas Hai
aapke Paas Hai
