voh kisii dil kaa diyaa thaah

HE WAS A LAMP OF SOMEONE’S HEART,

dil kabhi tumne diyaa thaah

YOU’D ONCE GIVEN ME THE HEART, 

yeh tumheN yaad rahe.

KEEP THIS IN MIND!

Reveal not every secret you have to a friend, for how can you tell but that friend may hereafter become an enemy. And bring not all mischief you are able to upon an enemy, for he may one day become your friend.
