Untruthful World (Yalanji Dunya)

This song is pure philosophy and rather pessimistic at that. This world is so deceptive that all we see are lies and illusions. The traveller who walks this road of deception and lies does not come back. It is impossible to now the mysteries of love. It is impossible to pursue love. “Don’t open the deep wound in my heart. I don't ant a crown, a throne, a palace and all those world goods because this world is a world of lies and nobody will ever come back again.”
