rahte the kabhi jin ke dil mein

1 / 1: Couplet

rahte the kabhi jin ke dil mein

ham jaan se bhi pyaaron ki tarah

baiThe hain unheen ke kooche mein

hum aaj gunahgaaron ki tarah

in whose heart i was once present

like i was more dear than life itself

today i am sitting in her street

like a common criminal
