When you your crush for the first time
aisa dekha nahi khoobsurat koi
jism jese ajanta ki moorat koi
jism kese nigaahoun ka jaadu koi
jism naghma koi
jism khusbu koi..
When they initially say no
kuch tau hawwa bhi sard thi…kuch tha tera khayaal bhi
dil ko khushi ke saath saath hota raha malaal bhi…
When you’re completely in love
mera gham aur meri har khushi tum se hai
jaanemann yeh meri har khushi tum se hai…
When you profess your love to them
yeh jo halka halka suroor hai
yeh teri nazar ka qusoor hai
keh sharaab peena sikha diya…
When you start dating
aafatoun ke daur mein
chain ki ghar hai tu
meri zindagi hai tu…
During your relationship
kinna sohna tainu Rabb ne banaya
dil kare vekhda rawaan…
When they have to go for a few days
sanu ek pal chain na aave
sajna tere bina
dil kamla dub dub jaave
sajna tere bina…
When they come back
ajj taan roz mubarak charheya
soha mere verhe varreya…
When you have your first fight and y’all don’t speak
jaania..haania…tu vi sikh kaddi dukh sukh pholna
tere bin nahi lagda dil mera dholna…
When you start getting suspicious
hai kahan ka irada tumhaara sanam
kis ke dil ko adaaoun se behalo gey
sach batao ke is chandni raat mein
kis se waada kiya hai kahan jao gey…
When you have another fight
har bala sar pe aajaye lekin
husn walloun se Allah bachaye
inki maasoomiyat pe na jaana
in ke dhokey mein hargiz na aana…
When you break up
ishq ko roag maar dete hain
aqal ko soag maar dete hain
aadmi khud bakhud nahi milta
dosrey loug maar dete hain…
When you miss them
gham aave te nahi parwah
ghamkhaar na vichre
kisse da yaar na vichre…
When you fall in love with another person
jeena kesa…pyaar bina
iss dunya mein…aaye ho tau
ik doojey se pyaar kero…
And when you’re sitting at home one day and you remember ex-bae
sochta houn ke woh kitne maasoom the
kya se kya ho gaye dekhte dekhte
meine pathar se jisko banaya sanam
woh Khuda ho gaye dekhte dekhte…
