The lines, “Meri khamoshi sunlo, Baatein ye dil mai bunlo, Phir na milengey hum, Tumse o yaar” (Listen to my silence, weave these unspoken words in your heart, for we may never meet again, my dear friend.) captures how when you’re about to lose someone really close, you realise that this is the end, all we’ll be left with is memories and wished for things to be different.
