Jab We Met - I

Kal dikhi forum mein, saj-sawar ke vo aayi thi
usko dekh cupid ne, mere dil mein ghunti bajayi thi

kya lag rehi thi, kya jum rehi thi
par shayad window-shopping vo kar rehi thi

Mein sharmaya, collar chadaya
baal banakar, style mein aaya
par dimaag mera tab gadbadaya, jab saath uske ek ladke ko paya

khub khil-khila rehi thi, baatein bana rehi thi
dil ko mere vo reh-reh kar jala rehi thi

mein nirash tha, jindagi se hataash tha
itne kareeb tha, phir bhi door apna saath tha

Bhujti lau phir fad-fadayi,
vo usko bhaiya keh kar bulai

Bhaiya mere rakhi ke bandhaan ko nibhana,
usko apni behna aur mujhe apna jija bulana

saath mere ek dost tha,
jisko mila hua naari-jati se moksh tha

ladkiyon se vo bachtah tha,
' what the hell ' unhe dekh kar kehta tha

mujhe keechte hue bola, 'arey chal yaha se '
mein bola, abey ruk, jara nazar to mila le
aur itne tu uske bhai se kaam chala le

tabhi us pari ki ek aur dost waha aa gayi
mere pyaar ki lau phir fad-fada gayi

dil dol gaya, kuch samajh na aaya
tab ' old is gold ' ka funda mene lagaya
