Because this song is about self-love, the word sajna is used to reference oneself

It is a song’s lyrics that eventually [determine] if it is a Sufi song or not. The way it is packaged is upon the artiste. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was traditional, [the band] Junoon employed electric and rock music to make Sufi music. So, music can be moulded to cater to the younger generation,” says Harshdeep Kaur on the day of the launch of her latest single, 'Wah Sajna', a Sufi number that features actor-dancer Mukti Mohan.
“Because this song is about self-love, the word sajna is used to reference oneself. We are flooded with articles about people in search of their true selves. There are stories of youngsters who commit suicide if they don’t do well in exams. They are not grateful for life. This is when I felt that we needed to talk about this subject. We need to be thankful for what we have.”
