ye kaise ho sakta hai
na jane hua ye kaise
teri laash pe khadha mai sochu
mai hu doshi jaise
mai tha kahan
kisi ne jab teri izzat ko luta
teri raksha na kar saka mai
rakshabandhan toota
mai kya na kar jata
par mai kuchh kar na paya
kitni jaldi chal di tu
mai kitni der se aya
ye bhul meri maaf tu karna

How could this be,
A mystery unfurled,
I stand above your form,
A shattered, broken world.
A shadow in the past,
When vultures took their flight,
Your honor desecrated,
My Raksha Bandhan, a blight.
What wouldn't I have done,
But silence was my art,
You left this mortal coil,
While I arrived, a tardy heart.
Forgive this trespass,
This failing, heavy, deep.
