nigah-e-qahr hogi ya mohabbat ki nazar hogi

nigāh-e-qahr hogī yā mohabbat kī nazar hogī

maza de jā.egī dil se agar ai sīm-bar hogī

tumheñ jaldī hai kyā jaanā abhī to raat baaqī hai

na ghabrāo zarā Thahro koī dam meñ sahar hogī

abhī se saare aalam meñ to ik andher barpā hai

na jaane kyā ġhazab Dhā.egī jab ye tā-kamar hogī

na lā.egī to kyā bechain bhī un ko na kar degī

hamārī aah kyā kam-baḳht itnī be-asar hogī

ham us ko dekh leñge aur vo ham ko na dekhegī

nigāh-e-yār kyā mahfil meñ itnī be-ḳhabar hogī

chalā jaatā to huuñ maiñ bahrūp ban kar un kī mahfil meñ

kahūñgā kyā rasā.ī gar kahīñ muñh dekh kar hogī

nigāh-e-lutf se dekhegā mujh ko ik jahāñ to kyā

agar tum dekh loge merī qismat arsh par hogī

asīrī meñ bhī yād-e-gul karegī is tarah bulbul

qafas ke dar pe sar hogā, su-e-gulshan nazar hogī

jo be-jurmī pe bhī 'bismil' ko tum ne kar diyā bismil

batāoge bhalā kyā hashr meñ pursish agar hogī

nigah-e-qahr hogi ya mohabbat ki nazar hogi

maza de jaegi dil se agar ai sim-bar hogi

tumhein jaldi hai kya jaana abhi to raat baqi hai

na ghabrao zara Thahro koi dam mein sahar hogi

abhi se sare aalam mein to ek andher barpa hai

na jaane kya ghazab Dhaegi jab ye ta-kamar hogi

na laegi to kya bechain bhi un ko na kar degi

hamari aah kya kam-baKHt itni be-asar hogi

hum us ko dekh lenge aur wo hum ko na dekhegi

nigah-e-yar kya mahfil mein itni be-KHabar hogi

chala jata to hun main bahrup ban kar un ki mahfil mein

kahunga kya rasai gar kahin munh dekh kar hogi

nigah-e-lutf se dekhega mujh ko ek jahan to kya

agar tum dekh loge meri qismat arsh par hogi

asiri mein bhi yaad-e-gul karegi is tarah bulbul

qafas ke dar pe sar hoga, su-e-gulshan nazar hogi

jo be-jurmi pe bhi 'bismil' ko tum ne kar diya bismil

bataoge bhala kya hashr mein pursish agar hogi
