One Sided Love Shayari in English

Loving you is my favorite habit,
Even if I am not in your destiny.

Ek tarfa hi sahi magar pyaar to hai,
Tujhe mujhse nahi to kya, mujhe tujhse to hai.

I don’t need a reason to love you,
Your existence is enough for my heart to beat,
Even if we never walk together.

Meri har dua mein tera hi naam hota hai,
Bhale hi tu kisi aur ki lakeeron mein ho,
Magar mere dil par tera hi raaj hota hai.

It hurts to see you with someone else,
But seeing you happy is all I ever wanted,
So I smile and hide my tears.

Tu meri wo adhura khwab hai,
Jise main har roz aankhen band karke,
Pura karne ki koshish karta hoon.

If loving you means staying in the shadows,
I will stay there forever just to watch you shine,
Because my love doesn’t depend on your answer.

Kamaal ki mohabbat hai meri bhi,
Tujhe pata bhi nahi aur hum,
Tere naam apni zindagi kar chuke hain,
Bas teri khushi hi meri jeet hai.

You are the poem I never wrote,
The song I never sang out loud,
But you are the only rhythm my heart knows.

Kaash tu samajh paata meri khamoshi ko,
Ke kitna dard hota hai tujhe dekh kar,
Jab tu kisi aur ka zikr karta hai,
Aur main sirf muskurata reh jaata hoon.

My silence is full of words for you,
But my lips are afraid to speak them.

Mere dil ka dard sirf main jaanta hoon,
Tumhe khone ka darr har pal maanta hoon.

I hide my feelings behind a fake smile,
Hoping you would notice the truth in my eyes,
But you only see what I show you.

Tujhe dekh kar dil ko sukoon milta hai,
Par wahi sukoon dard bhi ban jaata hai,
Jab yaad aata hai ke tu mera nahi.

Every time I look at you, I fall again,
Knowing very well that there is no hope,
Just a heart full of silent wishes.

Kaise kahoon ke kitna pyaar hai tumse,
Meri khamoshi mein bhi tera hi zikr hai,
Bas tujhe sunai nahi deta meri jaan.

I am an expert at hiding my broken heart,
I laugh with the world but cry in the dark,
Just because you don’t belong to me.

Teri yaadon mein guzarti hai meri har raat,
Tu paas nahi phir bhi teri hoti hai baat,
Khamosh mohabbat ka yahi to ek dard hai,
Ke hum ro bhi nahi sakte kisi ke saath.

The most painful thing is loving someone,
Who is right in front of your eyes,
But miles away from your reach.

Humne to dil se chaha tha tumko,
Magar shayad tumhari kismat mein koi aur tha,
Ab bas teri khushi ki dua karte hain,
Apne dard ko seene mein chhupa kar.

I will wait for you forever,
Even if forever takes a lifetime.

Tere intezaar mein din guzar jaate hain,
Par tere aane ki umeed kabhi nahi mit-ti.

I am standing at the same place,
Waiting for you to look back once,
And see the love waiting for you.

Har aahat par lagta hai ke tum aaye ho,
Darwaze ki taraf nazar yun hi chali jaati hai,
Tumhe pane ki chahat mein ye saal beet gaye.

Time changes everything but not my feelings,
I am still the same person who loves you,
From a distance, without any complaints.

Intezaar karna seekh liya hai maine,
Kyuki tujhe paana meri kismat mein nahi,
Magar tujhe yaad karna mera haq hai.

If you ever feel lonely or lost in life,
Just remember there is a heart waiting,
To welcome you back with open arms.

Shayad kabhi tu mud kar dekhega piche,
Aur tujhe ehsas hoga meri sachi mohabbat ka,
Main tab tak tera intezaar karunga,
Jab tak meri aakhri saans chale.

Waiting for your love is like waiting for rain,
In a desert where only the heat remains,
But I will stay here until the end.

Zindagi ki raahon mein akela khada hoon,
Bas teri ek jhalak ke liye tarasta hoon,
Pata hai tu kisi aur ki manzil hai,
Phir bhi tere hi raste par bhatakta hoon.

You are the star of my lonely sky,
Beautiful, bright, and very far away.

Teri ek muskurahat hi kaafi hai,
Mere pure din ki thakaan mitane ke liye.

I don’t want much from this life,
Just a small corner in your memory,
Where I can stay as a beautiful dream.

Tujhe chahne ki koi wajah nahi thi,
Bas ek nazar dekha aur dil haar baithe,
Ab ye dil bas tera hi hona chahta hai.

Every word I write is a letter to you,
Filled with the love I can never say,
And emotions that will never fade away.

Tu mere liye wo sukoon hai,
Jise dhoondne ke liye main,
Duniya se ladne ki himmat rakhta hoon.

Even if you are not mine, I am yours,
My heart belongs to you in every world,
And my prayers will always protect you.

Kaise samjhau is dil ko ke tu mera nahi,
Ye to har dhadkan mein tera hi naam leta hai,
Maine to koshish bahut ki tujhe bhulane ki,
Magar ye dil har baar tere paas hi jata hai.

The way you smile makes me forget my pain,
It’s like sunshine after a long cold rain,
I wish I could tell you this personally.

Mohabbat aisi ke koi hadd na ho,
Chahat aisi ke kabhi koi shak na ho,
Tu bhale hi mujhe kabhi na mil sake,
Magar tujh par se mera haqq kabhi kam na ho.

My heart is a house of broken dreams,
Where your name is written on every wall.

Kitna ajeeb hai ye rishta hamara,
Tu mera sab kuch hai, par main tera koi nahi.

I am tired of pretending I am okay,
Watching you love someone else everyday,
Is a pain that never really goes away.

Dil rota hai jab tu kisi aur se baat karta hai,
Par labon par humesha ek muskan hoti hai,
Humne hi to seekha hai khud ko tabah karna.

The distance between us is not in miles,
It’s in the heart that doesn’t beat for me,
And that is the biggest sadness of my life.

Humari kismat hi kuch aisi thi dosto,
Ke humne jise chaha wo kisi aur ka tha,
Aur humne khud ko khokar use paana chaha.

I wish I could unlove you as easily,
As I fell for you in a heartbeat,
But my heart is not listening to me.

Har raat ye sawal mujhse puchti hai,
Ke kya mila tujhe usse itna pyaar karke,
Main khamosh reh kar bas yahi kehta hoon,
Ke sukoon mila usse toot kar chahne mein.

Sometimes I wonder why I even try,
When I know the answer will always be a lie,
It’s better to remain silent and just cry.

Dard ki deewaron mein kaid hoon main,
Bas teri yaadon ke sahare zinda hoon,
Tu to apni nayi duniya mein khush hai,
Aur main purani yaadon ka parinda hoon.

I miss the “us” that never even existed,
Except in my beautiful imagination.

Tujhe yaad karna meri majboori nahi,
Ye to meri rooh ki ek purani aadat hai.

I see your face in every crowd,
I hear your voice when it’s too loud,
Missing you has become my secret life.

Bahut yaad aate ho jab koi tumhara naam leta hai,
Dil ek pal ke liye thak kar ruk jaata hai,
Kaise bataun ke ye dil kitna tarasta hai.

There are so many things I want to tell you,
But I end up saying nothing at all,
Because I know you won’t understand.

Kami teri mehsoos hoti hai har pal,
Magar tujhe batane ka haqq nahi hai,
Hum to bas teri yaadon mein jee lete hain.

My phone stays silent, just like my heart,
Waiting for a message that will never come,
Because you don’t even know I am here.

Tanhaiyon mein tera hi zikr hota hai,
Meri har saans ko tera hi fikar hota hai,
Tu bhale hi mujhe bhool gaya ho magar,
Mere har khwab mein tera hi ghar hota hai.

Missing you is a luxury I cannot afford,
Yet I spend all my time thinking of you,
Even when I know you are thinking of her.

Zindagi ke har mod par teri kami hai,
Aankhon mein har waqt thodi nami hai,
Tu paas nahi hai ye haqiqat hai meri,
Magar tere bina meri duniya hi suni hai.

Maybe in another world or another life,
We are finally meant to be together.

Ek din shayad tumhe ehsas hoga,
Ke koi tha jo tumhe khud se zyada chahta tha.

I keep my heart open just for you,
Hoping that one day you will walk in,
And stay here forever and ever.

Umeed par hi to duniya kaayam hai,
Isiliye aaj bhi tera naam lekar uthta hoon,
Shayad aaj tumhari taraf se koi khabar aaye.

I don’t lose hope because love is powerful,
If my love is true, you will feel it one day,
Until then, I will keep loving you this way.

Kismat badalte der nahi lagti dosto,
Kya pata kal wo mere saath ho,
Isi umeed mein ye zindagi kat rahi hai.

I dream of a day when I don’t have to hide,
When I can proudly walk by your side,
And tell the world that you are finally mine.

Mera ishq koi sauda nahi hai,
Ke badle mein tujhe maangu,
Bas dua hai ke kisi din tu,
Khudi chal kar mere paas aaye.

Even if it’s a 1% chance, I will take it,
Because for you, I am ready to break,
Every rule that says we can’t be together.

Dil ke ek kone mein aaj bhi umeed hai,
Ke kabhi to tum mujhe apna maanoge,
Isi ek khwab ke sahare main,
Apni puri zindagi guzar sakta hoon.

My love for you is my best kept secret,
Locked inside my heart with a golden key.

Tujhse milna mera naseeb tha,
Par tujhe chahna mera niji raaz hai.

I look at you when you are not looking,
I love you when you are not knowing,
This is my silent world of secret love.

Kaanch ki tarah nazuk hai ye jazbaat,
Tujhse keh diya to kahin toot na jaye,
Isiliye inhe dil mein dabakar rakha hai.

I write about you in poems and stories,
Giving you different names and faces,
So no one knows it’s actually about you.

Chupke se tujhe dekhna accha lagta hai,
Tere baare mein sochna saccha lagta hai,
Duniya ko pata chale ya na chale hume,
Bas tera ehsas hi hume apna lagta hai.

There is a sweet pain in secret love,
A feeling that belongs only to me,
Without any interference from the world.

Nazron se nazrein milti hain to dar lagta hai,
Kahin tu meri aankhon mein apna ishq na padh le,
Isliye aksar hum nazrein chura liya karte hain,
Taaki mera ye raaz humesha raaz hi rahe.

I am afraid that if I tell you the truth,
I might lose the friendship we have,
So I choose to remain a secret lover.

Mere har lafz mein teri hi kahani hai,
Meri har shayari teri hi nishani hai,
Log puchte hain kispar marte ho tum,
Main muskura kar kehta hoon purani kahani hai.

Being your friend is a beautiful torture,
I am so close to you, yet so far away.

Dosti ka naam lekar tujhse milte hain,
Kyuki pyaar ka haqq to tumne diya hi nahi.

I hate it when you call me “best friend”,
Because every time you say that word,
A little piece of my heart dies inside.

Tum mujhse apne dil ki har baat kehte ho,
Magar kaash kabhi mere dil ka haal bhi puchte,
Tumhare liye dosti hai, mere liye zindagi.

I give you advice on how to win their heart,
While I am struggling to keep mine together,
Just to see a smile on your beautiful face.

Sabse mushkil hota hai wo pal,
Jab tu kisi aur ke liye mujhse salaah leta hai,
Aur main rote huye bhi tujhe sahi rasta dikhata hoon.

I wish I could tell you I want more,
But I am too scared to lose what we have,
So I stay “just a friend” and suffer silently.

Dost ban kar rehna meri majboori ban gayi,
Tujhe khone ka darr mohabbat se bada ho gaya,
Ab har roz khud ko samjhata hoon main,
Ke tera saath hona hi mere liye kaafi hai.

We talk for hours about everything else,
But there’s a wall between us I can’t break,
The wall of friendship that keeps us apart.

Kitni ajeeb dastaan hai hamari bhi,
Tu mere dil ke sabse kareeb hai,
Par tujhe mere dil ki khabar tak nahi,
Bas ek dost ban kar reh gaya hoon main.

Your happiness is my only priority,
Even if it means I am not a part of it.

Teri khushi mein hi meri khushi hai,
Chahe wo kisi aur ke saath hi kyu na ho.

I will walk away if that makes you smile,
I will let you go if that makes you happy,
Because my love for you is selfless and pure.

Mohabbat ka matlab sirf paana nahi hota,
Kabhi kabhi kisi ko chhodna bhi padta hai,
Taaki wo apni pasand ki zindagi jee sake.

I am okay with being the villain in my story,
As long as you are the hero in yours,
Enjoy your life, I’ll manage my wounds.

Maine tujhe maanga tha khuda se,
Par tujhe kisi aur ki khushi mangte dekha,
To maine apni dua hi badal di,
Ab teri har khwaish puri ho, yahi mangta hoon.

Seeing you laugh with someone else is hard,
But seeing you cry would be much worse,
So I accept this distance for your peace.

Jise hum chahate hain wo khush rahe,
Phir chahe wo hamare saath ho ya na ho,
Yahi to ek sacche aashiq ki pehchan hai,
Ke wo apni mohabbat ki khushi dekhta hai.

I don’t want to be a burden on your heart,
I don’t want to be the reason for your tears,
Go ahead and live the life you dreamed of.

Tujhe pana meri kismat mein nahi shayad,
Magar tujhe bhulana mere bas mein nahi,
Tu jiske saath bhi rahe bas khush rahe,
Meri duaon mein humesha tera hi zikr rahega.

I love you from a distance,
Where no one can hurt us, not even you.

Door se hi tujhe dekhna achha lagta hai,
Kam se kam tu meri nazron ke samne to hai.

I don’t want to ruin what you have,
I am happy just watching you grow,
From the corners where you don’t see me.

Fasle bahut hain hamare darmiyan,
Magar meri nazar humesha tujh par rehti hai,
Door reh kar bhi main tere bahut kareeb hoon.

The safest place to love you is from afar,
Because there are no expectations there,
Just a quiet heart and a beautiful view.

Tu kisi aur ki manzil hai to kya hua,
Main to bas tera ek musafir hoon,
Jo door se hi tere raste ko dekhta hai,
Aur tujhe salamat dekh kar sukoon pata hai.

Sometimes I just sit and watch you talk,
Listening to your laughter from the back,
Knowing that I am blessed to just know you.

Log puchte hain ke door se kyu chahte ho,
Main kehta hoon ke paas aane ki aukat nahi,
Aur door jane ki himmat nahi hai mujh mein,
Bas isi kashmakash mein zindagi beet rahi hai.

Distance can’t stop me from loving you,
It only makes my heart grow stronger,
I will be your silent guardian forever.

Teri ek jhalak hi kafi hai din banane ke liye,
Tujhse baat karna zaroori nahi mere liye,
Bas tujhe muskurate huye dekh leta hoon,
Wahi kafi hai mere is toote huye dil ke liye.

I am surrounded by people yet I feel alone,
Because the only person I want isn’t here.

Akela pan ab mera dost ban gaya hai,
Kyuki tere bina koi aur accha nahi lagta.

The stars are witnesses to my lonely tears,
I tell them about the love I have for you,
And they listen without saying a single word.

Raat ki khamoshi mein jab sab so jaate hain,
Tab main aur teri yaadein jaagte hain,
Ek adhuri kahani ko pura karne ki koshish mein.

Loving you alone is a very heavy task,
My heart is tired of wearing this happy mask,
I just wish I could be myself for a moment.

Koi nahi hai jo mere aansu poch sake,
Koi nahi hai jo mere dil ki tadap samajh sake,
Bas ek tera khayal hai jo saath rehta hai,
Varna hum to kab ke is duniya se ja chuke hote.

Loneliness isn’t the absence of people,
It is the absence of the one person,
Who makes your soul feel completely full.

Tanhai mera muqaddar hai shayad,
Isliye to har mod par akela reh jata hoon,
Maine to tujhe manga tha har dua mein,
Par khali hath hi wapas laut ata hoon.

I talk to the moon about your beautiful face,
Wishing I could find a small tiny place,
In your busy world where I could belong.

Sunsaan raahein aur mera akela pan,
Bas yahi reh gaya hai ab mera jeevan,
Tu to apni mehfilon mein masroof hai,
Aur mera yahan dam ghut raha hai har pal.

I wish my eyes could speak the truth,
So I wouldn’t have to lie with my lips.

Kaash tum dekh sakte mere dil ke andar,
Wahan sirf aur sirf tumhara hi naam hai.

If only you knew how much I cry for you,
Maybe you would look at me differently,
And see the ocean of love I have for you.

Meri har shayari mein tera hi aks hota hai,
Kaash tu kabhi inhe padhne ki koshish kare,
Tujhe pata chalega ke koi kitna toot kar chahta hai.

I wish I had the courage to tell you,
That you are the reason for my survival,
And the owner of every breath I take.

Ek baar to meri taraf pyar se dekha hota,
Ek baar to mera haal pucha hota tumne,
Main apni puri duniya tumhare kadmo mein,
Rakh deta bas tumne ek ishara kiya hota.

You see me as a friend, a coworker, a stranger,
But I see you as my world, my life, my heart,
I wish you could see me through my eyes once.

Kaash humari bhi koi prem kahani hoti,
Jisme main tera aur tu meri hoti,
Duniya chahe kitni bhi khilaf hoti magar,
Tu mere dil ki har dhadkan ko pehchanti hoti.

The words I never said are the most important,
I wish you could hear the heartbeat that calls you,
Every single second of every single day.

Kehne ko to bahut kuch hai magar,
Zaban par aate hi sab ruk jata hai,
Kaash tu meri khamoshi ko samajh pata,
Ke ye dil sirf tere liye hi dhadakta hai.

My love is not weak, it is brave,
It survives without any fuel or hope.

Ek tarfa pyaar karne ke liye bada dil chahiye,
Kyuki yahan sirf dard milta hai, sukoon nahi.

I am proud of how much I can love you,
Without asking for a single thing in return,
It shows the depth of my true character.

Toot kar bhi muskura dena aasan nahi hota,
Apni mohabbat ko kisi aur ka hote dekhna,
Duniya ka sabse mushkil kaam hai mere dost.

I don’t regret loving you for a second,
Even if it brought me more pain than joy,
Because loving you made me a better person.

Meri himmat ki dad deni padegi dosto,
Ke aaj bhi us raste par khada hoon main,
Jahan se wo kabhi laut kar nahi aayega,
Phir bhi umeed ka diya jalaye baitha hoon.

Loving someone who doesn’t love you back,
Is like planting a flower in a dry land,
And still believing that it will bloom one day.

Har koi nahi kar sakta aisi mohabbat,
Jisme khud ko mitana padta hai kisi ke liye,
Humne to apni hasti hi mita di hai ab,
Bas tera naam roshan karne ke liye.

I have learned to find peace in my pain,
And beauty in the tears that fall like rain,
This heart touching sad shayari in english is my strength.

Duniya ki nazron mein main haar gaya hoon,
Magar mere dil ki nazron mein main jeeta hoon,
Kyuki maine woh ishq kiya hai jisme,
Koi shart nahi thi, sirf beintehaan wafa thi.
