Ye ehasaas ajeeb hai na khaaa ja rha hai…. or na hi sha ja rha hai….)

Playback song

Anjaane ho tum, jo begaane ho tum
Jo pehchaane lagte ho kyun
Tum gehri neendon me jab soye soye ho
Toh mujhme jagte ho kyun

Jab tujhko paata hai
Dil muskurata hai
Kya tujh se hai waasta
Kya tujh me dhoondu main
Kya tujh se chaahu main
Kya kya hai tujhme mera
Jaanu na main tujhme mera hissa hai kya
Par ajnabi apna mujhe tu lagaa..

Tujhse taalluk jo nahi kuch mera
Kyun tu lage hai apana saa
Dekhu jo tujhko ik nazar
Jaaye bhar mujhme hai mera jo khala
Zindagi me khushi tere aane se hai
Warna jeene mein gham, har bahane se hai
Hai yeh alag baat hai hum mile aaj hain
Dil tujhe jaanata ik zamaane se hai
Jaanu na main tujhme mera hissa hai kya
Par ajnabi apna mujhe tu laga
Jaanu na main tujhse mera rishta hai kya
Par ajnabi apna mujhe tu laga.
