FORBIDDEN (Secret Love from Daddy Zahid) [Intro – whispered, haunting] Raat chup hai… dil nahin Secret naam, hidden scene They don’t know what we mean But we still breathe… [Hook – Loop] I’m proud, I’m gay I’m proud, I’m gay No matter what they say I’m proud, I’m gay I’m proud, I’m gay Dil ko kaun rok paye Even if the world turns away I’m proud, I’m gay [Verse 1 – Zahid] Main Zahid, log kehte Big Daddy Outside stone, inside heavy No gold chain hide this ache No loud voice fix heartbreak Galiyon ne bola, don’t be seen Chhupa ke rakho every dream Par jab tu saamne aaya Saara andhera dhal gaya You looked at me and softly said “Don’t carry all that in your head” I laughed but my soul knew This forbidden thing was true Main tera sahara Tu mera noor Duniya bole wrong Par dil bole sure [Pre-Chorus] Main tera daddy Tu mera light Hold my hand Through the longest night [Chorus – Manny response] I’m your baby You’re my home Even in crowds I feel less alone Main tera baby Tu mera raasta Even if they never understand us I’m proud, I’m gay I’m proud, I’m gay No more hiding yesterday [Verse 2 – Manny] Mera naam Manny Main teri side No more running No more disguise Log hansenge Log kahenge Par hum phir bhi Saath chalenge You call me baby Like I belong For the first time Nothing feels wrong No crown, no throne No street, no fame Just your voice Calling my name [Bridge – soulful] Maybe forbidden Maybe unseen But love isn’t weaker Just because it’s quiet Raat lambi Subah door Phir bhi hum Zinda zaroor [Final Hook – repeat / fade] I’m proud, I’m gay I’m proud, I’m gay No shame today I’m your daddy I’m your baby World says no But maybe… maybe… I’m proud, I’m gay I’m proud, I’m gay Till the lights all fade…
