par hum wafa kar na sake
humko mili uski saza
hum jo khata kar na sake
hum bewafa hargiz na the
par hum wafa kar na sake

kitni akeli thi wo raahe, hum jin pe
ab tak akele chalte rahe
tujhse bichhad ke bhi o bekhabar
tere hi gham me jalte rahe
tune kiya jo shiqwa
hum wo gila kar na sake
hum bewafa hargiz na the
par hum wafa kar na sake

tumne jo dekha suna, sach tha magar
kitna tha sach, ye kisko pata
jane tumhe maine, koi dhokha diya
jane tumhe, koi dhokha hua
is pyar me sach jhuth ka
tum faisla kar na sake
hum bewafa hargiz na the
par hum wafa kar na sake

We were never faithless, not truly,
Yet faith we could not keep,
Punishment we bore for faults
That we could not help but reap.
We were never faithless, no, never,
Yet faith we could not keep.

How lonely were those paths we trod,
That even now, we walk alone,
Parted from you, yet unaware,
We burned with grief you’d never known.
Though you complained, we could not,
We could not voice our own despair.
We were never faithless, not truly,
Yet faith we could not keep.

What you saw, what you heard, was true,
But how much truth, who truly knows?
Perhaps I deceived you in some way,
Or perhaps deceit's dark current flows.
In this love, of truth and lies,
You could not the judgment bestow.
We were never faithless, no, never,
Yet faith we could not keep.
