Andheron Mein Rishtey
Arijit Singh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
चेहरे पे दोस्ती दिल में रंजिशें
आँखों की क़ैद में रहती हसरतें
अँधेरों में रिश्ते चल रहे
हर शक़्स पौधा ज़हर का बो रहा
हाथों को अपने लहू से धो रहा
नफ़रत का शोला दिलों में सो रहा
माने ना कोई, कोई बंदीशें
अँधेरों में रिश्ते चल रहे
मीठी हँसी में छुप्पी है एक दग़ा
धोखे में लिपटी हुई है हर अदा
क्यूँ ढूँढते हो शहर में तुम वफ़ा?
हाँ, फिर है उम्मीदें क्यूँ जवाँ?
उलझती हर घड़ी सबकी ख्वाहिशें
अँधेरों में रिश्ते चल रहे
उबलते हैं ख़्वाब बनके साज़िशें
चेहरे पे दोस्ती दिल में रंजिशें
आँखों की क़ैद में रहती हसरतें
अँधेरों में रिश्ते चल रहे
In Arijit Singh's song Andheron Mein Rishtey, the lyrics describe the complexities of relationships and emotions that are often hidden beneath the surface. The song starts by talking about how dreams and plans are always brewing in the minds of people, but underlying this is a sense of deceit. The singer goes on to question the existence of friendship, wondering if it is just an illusion and if there is true bitterness beneath the façade. The lyrical phrase "Andheron Mein Rishtey" means relationships in the dark - relationships where people are surrounded by darkness.
The next verse uses the metaphor of poison ivy, with every person a plant dripping with venom. The hatred in people's hearts is smoldering, and yet against all odds, love still finds a way to grow. The chorus repeats that relationships are present even in darkness, and nobody can escape from them. There is a sense of yearning and longing in the lyrics, which are depicted through the use of words such as "hopes" and "desires". The singer is trying to portray the complex human emotions that accompany relationships and is asking the listener to look beyond the surface level of interaction and see the deeper reality.
