A very popular song by the great Rafi sahib that nearly integrated Momin's famous "Tum mere paas hote ho goya jab koi doosra nahin hota". The film was LOVE IN TOKYO (1966) and the music was by Shankar-Jaikisan. Lyrics were by Hasrat Jaipuri. The on-screen actors were Joy Mukherjee and Asha Parekh. The original song had three antaras but the meragana.com karaoke, which I have used,  has provided for only two antaras.

LYRICS (lyricsmasti.com):
o mere shaah-e-khoobaan, o meri jaan-e-janaana (shahe khuban=king of sweethearts; jaanejanana=sweetheart)
tum mere paas hote ho, koi doosra nahi hota

kab khayaalon ki dhoop dhalti hai
har kadam pe shama si jalti hai
mera saaya jidhar bhi jaata hai
teri tasveer saath chalti hai
o mere shaah-e-khoobaan ...

tum ho sahara mein tum gulistaan mein (sahara=desert; gulistan=garden)
tum ho zarron mein tum bayaanbaan mein (zarra=atom)
main ne tum ko kahaan kahaan dekha
choop ke rahate ho tum rag-e-jaan mein (rage jaan=jugular vein)
o mere shaah-e-khoobaan ...

meri aankhon ki justaju tum ho (justaju=search)
iltaja tum ho aarzu tum ho
main kisi aur ko to kya jaanu
meri ulfat ki aabaru tum ho
o mere shaah-e-khoobaan ....
