Pareshan raat saari hai...

Pareshan raat saari hai, sitaron tum to so jao,
sukun-ke-murk tari hai, sitaron tum to so jao.

Tumhe kya aaj bhi koi agar milne nahi aaya,
ye baazi humne haari hai, sitaron tum to so jao.

Kahe jaate ho ro ro ke humara haal duniya se,
ye kaisi raaz daari hai, sitaron tum to so jao

Pareshan raat saari hai, sitaron tum to so jao,
sukun ke murk tari hai, sitaron tum to so jao.

This is a beautiful song by Chitra Singh from the album "The Milestone". I liked how subtly the poet has shown her emotions; how she says that she is pained and unable to sleep. She is alone, and just wants to be completely alone now; so that she can just enjoy the night.
