Shayad — Lyrics

Shayad kabhi na keh sakein Main tumse dil ki baatein Shayad kabhi na jaan sakein Tum meri kya ho Shayad yeh bhi soch lein Hum dono yun hi Shayad kabhi mil sakein Tum aur main yahin Shayad kabhi na mil sake Yeh vaada jo kiya Shayad yeh raaz chhupe Dil mein jo hai piya Shayad shayad Yeh dil pukare Shayad shayad Tum bin na jee sake

Maybe I may never say To you the matters of the heart Maybe I may never know What you are to me Maybe we should also think Just like this we both Maybe we may meet sometime You and I right here Maybe we may never meet This promise that was made Maybe these secrets stay hidden In the heart that is beloved Maybe maybe This heart calls out Maybe maybe Without you I cannot live
