Nigaah

A glance means so much to one who casts it, as well as to the other who receives it. In romantic poetry especially, a glance has a special meaning. Interestingly, all glances are not the same as each glance has its own angle and its own message. We hope that you would appreciate our selection on this subject.

faqat nigah se hota hai faisla dil ka na ho nigah men shokhi to dilbari kya hai

the couplet says that the first and deepest judgment of love is made through a glance. the eye becomes a language that reveals attraction, confidence, and intent without words. “shokhi” (playful boldness) in the gaze is presented as the very essence of allure; without it, beauty feels lifeless and persuasion fails.

sab kuchh to hai kya dhundti rahti hain nigahen kya baat hai main vaqt pe ghar kyuun nahin jaata

saaqi mujhe sharab ki tohmat nahin pasand mujh ko tiri nigah ka ilzam chahiye

the charge of being affected by wine, i do despise i want to be accused of feasting from your eyes

didar ki talab ke tariqon se be-khabar didar ki talab hai to pahle nigah maang

ignorant of mores when seeking visions bright if you want the vision, you first need the sight

be-khud bhi hain hoshiyar bhi hain dekhne vaale in mast nigahon ki ada aur hi kuchh hai

~ Abul Kalam Azad

dhoka tha nigahon ka magar khuub tha dhoka mujh ko tiri nazron men mohabbat nazar aai
