'Tere Bina Zingadi Se Koi' from Aandhi (1975) is one of the all time classics, in the voice of Kishore Kumar (amazing how he could yoodley and sing such soulful songs with equal ease) and Lata Mangeshkar (IMO, the greatest singer of all time). This song is composed by R.D. Burman and written by Gulzar.
Aarti Devi (Suchitra Sen) and JK (Sanjeev Kumar) are married, but estranged (mainly due to her political ambitions). During one of Aarti Devi's election rallies, they meet again after many years. It's then that they begin to ask themselves, that though they have been living apart for so long, have they really lived all these years, (or merely existed)? This song conveys regret at losing one's love, and raises the question if anything you gained after sacrificing your love was worth it.
Lyrics, and translation:
Tere bina zindagi se koi, shikwa nahin (shikwa nahin, shikwa nahin)
Tere bina zindagi bhi lekin zindagi to nahin (zindagi nahin, zindagi nahin)
[[There is not much to complain about, in a life without you.
But then, a life without you is hardly a life]]
