Zaroori Tha — Lyrics

Zaroori tha ke main tumse milta Zaroori tha ke main tumhe chahata Dil ki har dhadkan mein tum hi basi thi Har pal tumhari yaad sath thi Zaroori tha yeh ehsaas jagana Zaroori tha yeh dil ko sambhalna Tum bin jeena ab namumkin tha Tum bin har khushi adhuri thi Verse 2: Raahon mein tumhari intezaar kiya Khali raaton mein tumhe pukara Ishq ki yeh raah mein akela tha Par tumse milna zaroori tha Chorus: Zaroori tha, zaroori tha Tumhe apna banana zaroori tha Zaroori tha, zaroori tha Yeh pyaar nibhana zaroori tha

Translated by My Geet AI Beats

It was necessary that I meet you It was necessary that I love you In every beat of the heart you resided Every moment your memory was with me It was necessary to awaken this feeling It was necessary to steady this heart Living without you had become impossible Without you every happiness was incomplete I waited for you on the paths Called out to you in empty nights On this path of love I was alone But meeting you was necessary It was necessary, it was necessary Making you mine was necessary It was necessary, it was necessary Nurturing this love was necessary
