“Main Khayal Hoon Kisi Aur Ka” — Written by Shayar Saleem Kausar

Welcome to Sofis Music! 🎧

In this special release, we present an original musical interpretation inspired by one of the most evocative verses of Urdu poetry — “main khayal hoon kisi aur ka, mujhe mangta koi aur hai” — a line that speaks deeply about longing, separation, and the bittersweet ache of unrequited devotion. This ghazal-inspired composition draws from timeless poetic themes that have moved listeners and poetry lovers for generations.

🎤 About This Poem & Its Poet
The poignant couplet that inspired this composition is widely known within ghazal circles and attributed to poet Saleem Kausar, whose lyricism captures the subtle interplay between love, fate, and identity.

“Main khayal hoon kisi aur ka” — I am simply a thought of another person,
“Mujhe mangta koi aur hai” — Yet someone else desires me.

This line, and the broader poetic context around it, encapsulates the yearning and complex emotional layers typical of Urdu ghazal poetry — where the soul’s quiet struggle is revealed through refined imagery and timeless expression.

🌟 Why This Rendition Matters
In an age where music is shaped by rapid trends, we’ve chosen to reconnect with tradition — by honoring the philosophical and emotional depth of a classic poetry line and imagining it in a fresh, contemporary musical setting. Our intention with this piece is not merely to recreate, but to reimagine — blending ancient feelings with modern sensibilities, and resonating with listeners who seek meaning beyond melody.

Through this release, Sofis Music invites you into a world where poetry and music meet — where every note carries the weight of emotion, and every lyric speaks to the heart.

📌 About the Lyrics
The lines of the original ghazal reflect:

A sense of being beloved yet unknown,

The paradox of being cherished by another but desired by someone else,

And the deeper metaphor of identity caught between remembrance and oblivion.

It’s an emotional framework that many can relate to — especially those who’ve felt the tenderness and pain of unfulfilled desire.
