One Love
Rakht Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah…oh right…

Kya maine socha, aur kya huwa
Kya dil ne chaaha, aur kya mila
Ab jeet kaisi, aur haar kya
Kispe bharosa, aitbaar kya
Phir bhi dil mein aas hai
Aankhon mein talaash hai
Tum jo saath ho, ik subaah aayegi
Roshni jo laayegi ho..
Ab ki jo raat ho

One love, har tan kahe
One love, mil kar rahe
One love, ik aasmaan haan ik jahaan
One love, naya josh hai
One love, nayi soch hai
One love, hamein hai yaqeen
One love is all we need

It's late at night I am still wide awake
Babe this is far more than I can take
I got my eyes closed, never pray
Now I know that's one big mistake

I refuse to give up, I refuse to give in
Ho..(uh huh) you're my everythin'
I don' wanna give up, I don' wanna give in
Oh no, everybody stay

One love, for the mother's pride
One love, for the times we cried
One love, got to stay alive, I will survive
One love, for the city streets
One love, for the hip hop beats
One love, for I do believe
One night is all we need
That's right
Baby just love me love me love me
Baby just hold me hold me hold me
Oh…love me love me love me

Aa…
One love, baby just love me love me love me
Just hold me hold me hold me
Oh…love me love me love me

Aa…aa…
One love, for the mother's pride
One love, for the times we cried
One love, got to stay alive, I will survive
One love, for the city streets
One love, for the hip hop beats
One love, oh I do believe
One love is all we need
One love, har tan kahe
One love, milkar rahe
One love, ik aasmaan haan ik jahaan
One love, naya josh hai
One love, nayi soch hai




One love, hamein hai yaqeen
One love is all we need
