Lyrics

Yaha mai ajanabee hu – (2)
Mai jo hu bas wohee hu – (2)
Yaha mai ajanabee hu

Kaha sham aur shehar, yeh kaha din rat mere
Bahut rusva huye hain, yaha jasbat mere
Nai tahrib hai yeh naya hai yeh jamana
Magar me aadamee hu wahee sadiyo purana
Mai kya janu yeh baaten jara insaf karma
Meree gustakhiyo ko khudara maf karna
Yaha mai ajanabee hu – (2)

Teree baaho me dekhu sanam gairo kee baahen
Mai layunga kahan se bhala aisee nigaahe
Yeh koyee rasta hoga koyee dastur hoga
Mujhe dastur aisa kahan manjur hoga
Bhala kaise yeh meraa lahu ho jaye panee
Mai kaise bhul jaau mai hu hindustanee
Yaha mai ajanabee hu – (2)

Mujhe bhee hai shikayat tujhe bhee toh gila hai
Yahee shikawe hamaree muhabbat kaa sila hai
Kabhee magharib se masharif mila hai jo milega
Jahan kaa phul hai jo wahee gairo khilega
Tere unche mahalme nahee meraa gujara
Mujhe yad aa raha hai woh chhota sa shikara
Yaha mai ajanabee hu
