"The biggest difference in my way of looking at people is that what I think of them has nothing to do with what they think of me. So, I might detest someone who loves me and I might love someone who detests me."
Sar e-shaam ko ye khayaal aaya tha,
wo mohabbat thi ki koi shaitaani saahir tha,
jisne zindagi ko is kadar sa'oobat banaya tha,
ki zafar ko bhi hamne aansoo mein bahaya tha!

At dusk this thought occurred,
whether it was love or some evil magician,
that made my life so full of hardship,
that even victory was drowned in tears.
Ye raaste hain gawaah
Ye raaste hain gawaah,
main aaya tha in par teri talaash mein.
Ye raaste hain gawaah,
main baitha tha yaheen tere intezaar mein.
Ye raaste hain gawaah,
kho gaya tha main tujhe dhoondne mein.
Ye raaste hain gawaah,
main roya tha teri kamee dil ko chubhi thi jab.
Ye raaste hain gawaah,
tu muh pher kar chal diya tha tab.

These roads witnessed
me coming here looking for you.
These roads witnessed
me sitting here waiting for you.
These roads witnessed
me getting lost in finding you.
These roads witnessed
me crying when my heart felt the lack of you.
These roads witnessed
you turned your face and went away.
