Magic in Tunes – Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi

For all songs in this series, go here

This song is from the 1964 Indian Hindi-language science fiction romantic comedy film Mr. X In Bombay. I don’t remember about the heroine much, but this song has made her immortal.

Music was composed by Laxmikant – Pyarelal (Musical duo of brothers) to the Lyrics penned by Anand Bakshi and Asad Bhopali. Sung by Kishore Kumar.

Didn’t realize that this had one more version too.

Lyrics transliterated of popular version:

Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi,

Aaj Rusva Teri Galiyon; Mein Mohabbat Hogi

Naam Niklega Tera Hi Lab Se,

Jaan Jab Iss Dil-E-Nakaam Se Rukhsat Hogi.

Mere Mehboob

Mere Sanam Ke Dar Se Agar; Vaade-Saba Ho Tera Guzar

Kehna Sitamgar Kuchh Hai Khabar; Tera Naam Liya Jab Tak Bhi Jiya

Ae Shama Tera Parwana

Jis-Se Ab Tak Tujhe Nafrat Hogi; Aaj Ruswaa Teri Galiyon

Mein Mohabbat Hogi

Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi; Aaj Ruswaa Teri Galiyon

Mein Mohabbat

Tere Gali Main Aata Sanam, Nagma Wafa Ka Gaata Sanam,

Tujhse Suna Na Jaata Sanam

Phir Aaj Idhar Aaya Hoon; Magar Yeh Kehne Mein Deewana

Khatm Bas Aaj Yeh Vehshat Hogi; Aaj Rusva Teri Galiyon

Mein Mohabbat Hogi

Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi, Aaj Rusva Teri Galiyon

Mein Mohabbat Hogi; Mere Mehboob

Meri Tarah Tu Aahein Bhare, Tu Bhi Kisi Se Pyar Kare,

Aur Rahe Woh Tujhse Parey

Toone O Sanam Dhaaye Hain Sitam, To Yeh Tu Bhool Na Jaana.

Ke Na Tujhpe Bhi Inaayat Hogi, Aaj Rusva Teri Galiyon

Mein Mohabbat Hogi

Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi, Aaj Rusva Teri Galiyon

Mein Mohabbat Hogi

Mere Mehboob

Meri Nazrein To Gila Karti Hain; Tere Dil Ko Bhi Sanam

Tujhse Shikayat Hogi
