Apne mahol se bichdi hui tum lagti ho

Apne mahol se bichdi hui tum lagti ho,
Paas baithi ho par uljhi hui tum lagti ho.

Beech apne hai koi pichle janam ka rishta,
Jaagte sote me dekhi hui tum lagti ho.

Ye lab wo lahja ye aakhein nahin is dunyan ki,
Mujhko marikh (name of a star) se aai hui tum lagti ho.

Chandni raton me phaili hui khushboo ki tarah,
Mujhko har simt (every where) se aai hui tum lagti ho.

Ek benaam udasi ki jhalak chehre par,
Shayed us shaher se ruthi hui tum lagti ho...
