Specialty of this song is Rahman is the only singer who has sung it without
chorus and after that some technical musical part added in it. This is only possible because of Rahman's music sense.This song was not composed for the movie; it was just creation of Rahman for himself to listen to.

created a space for the song.

Khwajajii, khwaja
Khwajajii, khwaja, khwaja ji
Ya gharib nawaz(3)
Ya moinuddin, ya khwaja ji
ya khwaja ji
ya khwaja ji
(Khwaja mere khwaja
Dil mein sama ja
Shaho ka shah tu
Ali ka dulara) - 2
Khwaja mere khwaja dil mein sama ja(2)
Beqaso ki taqdeer, tune hai sawari(2)
Khwaja mere khwaja
Tere darbar mein khwaja
Door toh hai dekha
Tere darbar mein khwaja
Sar jhuka te hai auliya
Tu hai unalwali khwaja
Rutba hai pyara
Chahne se tujhko khwaja ji mustafa ko paya
Khwaja mere khwaja
Dil mein sama ja
Shaho ka shah tu
Ali ka dulara
Mere peer ka sadka(2)
Hai mere peer ka sadka
Tera daaman hai thama
Khawajaji
Tali har bala humari
Chaya hai khumar tera
Jitna bhi rashk kare beshak
Toh kam hai ae mere khwaja
Tere kadmo ko mere rehnuma nahi chodna gawara
(Khwaja mere khwaja
Dil mein sama ja
Shaho ka shah tu
Ali ka dulara) - 2
Khwaja mere khwaja dil mein sama ja(2)
Beqaso ki taqdeer, tune hai sawari(2)
(Khwaja mere khwaja
Dil mein sama ja
Shaho ka shah tu
Ali ka dulara) - 2
khwaja ji
khwaja ji
khwaja ji ....
