Ajab Masoom Ladki thi

Ajab din thay mohabbat ke, Ajab din thay rafaqat ke

Kabhi gar yaad aa jayen to

Palkon par sitare jhilmilate hain

Kisi ki yaad mein raton ko aksar jagna mamool tha apna

Kabhi gar neend aa jati to hum ye soch lete thay

Abhi to wo hamare waste roya nahi ho ga, abhi soya nahi ho ga

Abhi hum bhi nahi rote, abhi hum bhi nahi sote

So phir hum jaagte thay aur usko yaad karte thay

Akele beth kar weeran dil abad karte thay

Hamare saamne taron ke jhurmat mein akela chand hota tha

Jo uske husn ke agey bohat he maand hota tha

Flak par anginnat roshan sitaron ko

Jo hum tarteeb dete thay to uska naam banta tha

Jo agle roz jab miltey

To guzri raat ki har bekali ka zikr karte thay

Har aik qissa sunate thay

Kahan kis waqt kis tarha se dil dhadka batate thay

Main jab kehta ke jannan aaj to main raat ko aik pal nahi soya

To wo khamosh rehti thi

Par uski neend mein doobi do jheel si aankhen

Achanak bol uthti thi

Main jab usko batata tha ke main ne raat ko roshan sitaron mein

Tumhara naam dekha hai

To wo kehti tum jhoot kehte ho

Sitare main ne dekhe thay

Aur un roshan sitaron mein tumhara naam likha tha

Ajab Masoom Ladki thi

Mujhey kehti thi lagta hai, ab apne sitare mil he jain ge

Maggar usko khabar kia thi kinare mil nahi sakte

Mohabbat ki kahani mein mohabbat karne walon ke sitare mil nahi sakte

Kinare mil nahi sakte
