O’
Prettiest
Come close and
Lend me your lofty ear
I have something so adoring
To tell you O' my
Dear

May
Your moments
Dance in divine hue
And may your nights
Become filled with
Gripping magic so
New

In
Aura of
Your magnificence
So charming and so pure
May every soul drown
And forever
Brew

Sight
Of your majesty
And struck with deep joy
The stars gather in a
Queue

O'
Prettiest
You are a queen of
Glory and the moments
Of life are merely
Droplets of
Dew

Y o u r   eyes
Pour beauty alike the
Glowing rays from the sun
M y   humble   r e q u e s t
To you O' charming soul
Please stay forever

Uss Ne Kaha Kaun ** Tum
Main Ne Kaha Hasrat Teri

She asked: Who are you?
I said: Yearnings of your heart

Uss Ne Kaha Takta Hai Kya
Main Ne Kaha Surat Teri

She asked: What do you see?
I said: Beauty of your art

Uss Ne Kaha Chahta Hai Kya
Main Ne Kaha Khidmat Teri

She asked: What do you desire?
I said: To forever serve you

Uss Ne Kaha Pachtaega
Main Ne Kaha Qismat Meri

She said: You might regret
I replied: That’s my luck for you
