यूँ ज़िंदगी गुज़ार रहा हूँ तिरे बग़ैर
जैसे कोई गुनाह किए जा रहा हूँ मैं
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning
I am spending my life without you in such a manner, as though I am continuously committing some sin.
Explanation
This couplet captures the quiet guilt of simply surviving heartbreak. The poet compares going on with life without the beloved to committing a persistent sin, as though drawing breath in their absence is a betrayal of their love. It transforms the act of survival into a lingering moral burden, where every passing moment feels heavy with unspoken remorse.
