bhigi huwi koyi sham woh, mehka huwa koyi nam woh
bin baat hi hoti hai nilam woh
mashhur hai phir bhi badnam woh
jane huwa hai aaj kya hame
na ham jane kyun hamko yad aaye woh

abb iss tarha usko sochta hu
gujre huwe woh pal rokta hu
woh pal kahi kho gaye hain jo apne
aur sath bhi ho gaye hain jo sapne
jane huwa hai aaj kya hame
na ham jane kyun hamko yad aaye woh

woh roshni woh aag hai ya phir koyi chirag hai
jisse dhire dhire hai jalna
jisse iss tarha hi hai chalna
kissi mod pe woh aaj bhi kandil si jalegi
shaher ki dhup si bewakt hi dhalegi
kyun hamko yad aaye wo
bhigi huwi koyi sham woh, mehka huwa koyi nam woh
bin bat hi hoti hai nilam woh
mashhur hai phir bhi badnam woh
jane huwa hai aaj kya hame
na ham jane kyun hamko yad aaye woh

A dampened dusk, a fragrant name,
Auctioned off, a whispered game.
Famous still, yet stained with shame,
What holds us now, this burning flame?
We know not why, yet she returns,
A phantom echo that softly yearns.

Now lost in thought, I see her face,
And hold the moments time erased.
Those stolen hours, they slip away,
And dreams, once held, now start to stray.
What holds us now, this aching plea?
We know not why, yet she's in me.

Is she a light, a raging fire,
Or just a lamp, fueled by desire?
Destined to burn, slow, and low,
And forced to walk this earthly flow.
At some crossroad, she'll ignite,
Like candlelight in fading light.
A city's sun, at wrong hour it falls,
Why do we still hear her calls?
A dampened dusk, a fragrant name,
Auctioned off, a whispered game.
Famous still, yet stained with shame,
What holds us now, this burning flame?
We know not why, yet she returns,
A phantom echo that softly yearns.
