I am hurt by love
But how can love hurt?
If my love is true I cannot be hurt.
My love is true
But I am feeling pain in my heart
Why this pain if I am not hurt.
I know a heart full of love cannot be hurt
But who is this who's hurt.
May be its wrong that a heart full of love cannot be hurt
May be only whom I love can possibly hurt this heart.
For who else but its lover plucks the flower
and end its lease of life
'My love' and only 'My love' has the liberty to hurt me
Because she is not only my love but also my wife!
