ek ajnabi hasina se yu mulakat ho gayi
ek ajnabi hasina se yu mulakat ho gayi
phir kya huwa yeh na puchho, kuchh aisi baat ho gayi
ek ajnabi hasina se yu mulakat ho gayi

woh achanak aa gayi, yu najar ke samane
jaise nikal aaya ghata se chand
woh achanak aa gayi, yu najar ke samane
jaise nikal aaya ghata se chand
chehre pe julfe, bikhari huyi thi, din me raat ho gayi
ek ajnabi hasina se yu mulakat ho gayi

janeman janejigar hota me shayar agar
kahata gazal teri adao par
janeman janejigar hota me shayar agar
kahata gazal teri adao par
maine yeh kaha toh mujhse khafa woh janehayat ho gayi
ek ajnabi hasina se yu mulakat ho gayi

khubsurat baat yeh char pal ka sath yeh
sari umar mujhko rahega yaad
khubsurat baat yeh char pal ka sath yeh
sari umar mujhko rahega yaad
mai akela tha magar, ban gayi woh hamsafar, wo mere sath ho gayi
ek ajnabi hasina se yu mulakat ho gayi

From a stranger's eyes, our souls did meet,
A chance encounter, bittersweet.
What followed, ask me not to say,
A moment born, that stole the day.
From a stranger's eyes, our souls did meet.

She bloomed before my very gaze,
Like moonbeams breaking through a haze,
A sudden light, a whispered grace,
Dark tresses framing her fair face,
And day itself turned into night.
From a stranger's eyes, our souls did meet.

Beloved, if a poet I could be,
To sing your beauty, wild and free,
With verses woven, soft and low.
But when I spoke, her anger grew,
And life itself, did turn away.
From a stranger's eyes, our souls did meet.

This fleeting bond, a precious art,
Will live forever in my heart,
These few short moments, bittersweet,
Though I was lonely, incomplete,
She became my companion, my all,
From a stranger's eyes, our souls did meet.
