It was nice to meet a stranger in the crowd

It was nice to see someone in secret

Flowers began to bloom under the gray eyes

It was nice to think of someone saying that

It was nothing but a tail of it

It was nice to hold my hand to my lips

Mixing sugar in tea is very popular at this time

He smiled and said thank you

How many vows were made in his heart to forget him

When he was found, it was good to break all intentions

That thrill of unintentional touch was lovely

It was nice to see that with less attention

Tomorrow on the streets soaked in the silence of midnight

It was nice to walk in front of your memories

How can I call this claim bad in Amjad?

Whenever he came in front, he felt unfaithful
