yahi dil thaa ki tarastaa thaa maraasim ke liye

ham na hote to kisi aur ke charche hote
Khilqat e shahr (people of this city) to kehne ko fasaane maange

yahii dil thaa ki tarastaa thaa maraasim (introduction) ke liye
ab yahii tark e ta'alluq (breaking up) ke bahaane maange

हम न होते तो किसी और के चर्चे होते
ख़िलक़त ऐ शहर तो कहने को फ़साने मांगे

यही दिल था कि तरसता था मरासिम के लिए
अब यही तर्क ऐ ताल्लुक़ के बहाने मांगे

If it wasn't me, it would've been someone else in the limelight
The people of this city just want some gossip to pass on

This same heart used to yearn to know her better
And now it looks for excuses to break up
