Mukeshji is in Saigals shoes in this greatest song by him and he became an
accomplished singer with this song and got recognition.The song had great
depth , sorrow and pain and even to day this is still fresh and feel like
crying. one must listen to this song in Darkness of night in silence.A very
great performance by the immortal singer Mukeshji. With sucjh songs he is
still amongst us and still alive.

दिल जलता है तो जलने दे - دل جلتا ہے تو جلنے دے
आँसू ना बहा फ़रियाद ना कर - آنسو نہ بہا فریاد نہ کر
दिल जलता है तो जलने दे - دل جلتا ہے تو جلنے دے
-
तू परदा नशीं का आशिक़ है - تو پردہ نشیں کا عاشق ہے
यूं नाम-ए-वफ़ा बरबाद ना कर - یوں نامِ وفا برباد نہ کر
दिल जलता है तो जलने दे - دل جلتا ہے تو جلنے دے
-
मासूम नजर के तीर चला - معصوم نظر کے تیر چلا
बिस्मिल को बिस्मिल और बना - بسمل کو بسمل اور بنا
अब शर्म-ओ-हया के परदे में - اب شرم و حیا کے پردے میں
यूं छुप छुप के बेदाद ना कर - یوں چھپ چھپ کے بیداد نہ کر
दिल जलता है तो जलने दे - دل جلتا ہے تو جلنے دے
-
हम आस लगाये बैठे हैं - ہم آس لگائے بیٹھے ہیں
तुम वादा करके भूल गये - تم وعدہ کرکے بھول گئے
या सूरत आके दिखा जाओ - یا صورت آکے دکھا جاؤ
या कह दो हमको याद ना कर یا کہہ دو ہم کو یاد نہ کر

@barcfrdpp - bismil can mean either a sacrificial offering [like an animal]
or a lover [figurative sense]. he says "maasoom nazar ke teer chalaa,
bismil ko bismil aur banaa". i don't understand the exact meaning of that
2nd part, but the 1st is 'shooting arrows out of those innocent-looking
eyes', so perhaps...sacrificing that which is to be sacrificed? or wounding
even more people who yearn for those eyes? just a guess.

This was a good start for Mukesh's carrier with a nice and graceful song in
the melodic sphere of the film industry. Nodoubt some people mistakenly
took this song as the voice of K.L.Sehgal , however "Gem is Gem" I always
appreciated this song too much even since from my childhood and have it now
in my collections of songs in India. Mukesh will remain immortal forever.
Thanks a lot for uploading the song. Prof. Gercha

Long back, Manohar Mahajan of Radio cylone told , that , Anil Biswas assured, Mazahar khan ( who objected this song ), the film will be released only in one theater, and if this song is not accepted by audiens, it may be removed from the film. Later it proved except this song no body is in the memories of public-Arani Apparao-Hyderabad.(A.P.)
