Judaai NR OS

Judaai

Raanjhan dhoondhan main chaleya

Raanjhan mileya naa ae

Jigraan vichon agan laga ke rabba

Lakeeran vich likh di judaai

I saw him walk away. With Nishi in my arms and Aarav tugging at my dupatta, both wailing for attention.

But how could I register anything when the man who had meant everything to me was walking away so ruthlessly right in front of me?

Had he forgotten all the promises we made to one another? Had they meant nothing to him?

How did this happen?

Kho gaya, gum ho gaya

Waqt se churaaya tha jo

Apna banaaya tha

Wo tera, wo mera

Saath nibhaaya tha jo

Apna banaaya tha

I walked away, cradling Agam with one arm and holding Ranbir's hand with the other.

The woman I promised to protect and care for and love no longer needed me. My heart pricked, tears dripping down my face. But I couldn't let her see me weak. I couldn't let her see how vulnerable I was. I trusted her; I let her be the one person who could make or break me.

How did this happen?

Chadariya jheeni re jheeni

Chadariya jheeni re jheeni

Aankhein bheeni ye bheeni ye bheeni

Yaadein jheeni re jheeni re jheeni

I could still feel myself yearning for his love.

I could still feel myself tensing up just with the mere mention of her name.

It was as if I had never moved on.

Every night, I smiled for my kids.

Every night, I drowned myself in alcohol.

Living for them. Smiling for them. It made me happy. Gave my broken soul a reason to mend itself.

Living for others. Trying to help others. It made me happy. But at night, when I was truly alone with no one to look after, I'd lose myself in the depths of alcohol to prevent another failed attempt at fixing myself.

I'd look at Nishi and Aarav, and see my past. The moments I once shared with Nachiket.

I'd look at Ranbir and Agam, and see her. The moment I walked out haunting me.

That moment haunted me. As if etched into memory, I couldn't forget.

The moment I walked out.

The moment he walked out on me.

It was as if I were destined to live this life alone.

His presence no longer mattered. It wasn't meant to be.

Her presence no longer mattered. It wasn't meant to be.

But what if I thought otherwise?

It didn't matter. This just wasn't meant to be.

So how'd you guys find it?

Do let me know.

Even if you hated it, do let me know.

Would love to read your feedback :D

Lots of love,
Hinal 😳

Interesting format.. to use the lyrics and juxtapose their perspective about the separation.. must have been such a body blow to the both of them :(

Do write more..

Really enjoyed reading it.. it was too short :(

This is just perfect and too short. I wanted this to not end.

Please follow this up with Jeena Jeena if at all. Or anything comes to mind.

I love reading about them.

Thank you so much! :D

Glad you liked it!

I know :(

Hey!

Thank you so much 😃

This is suuuch a beautiful song. I felt goosebumps when I saw the video trailer of this song.

And right after that, I was watching IKNMP and I just had to write this out.

I shall try to write more once all these midterms are taken care of 😆

I wanted to make it long, but then I was fearing that I would lose the impact so decided to keep it short

Thank you for your feedback! 😳
