BARSAAT...

जब तुम्हारे यादो की बरसात होती है ,
दिल रोने को मचल उठता है ,
गम के बादल छा जाते है ,
एक बिजली सी कौंध जाती है ...
हम बरसात का इंतज़ार करते करते युही पिघल जाते है ,
आंसू आख से निकलते नहीं, पहले ही सूख जाते है ,
तड़प के रह जाते है आखिर ये बरसात होगी कब ....
क्यूंकि तभी तो मेरे जज़्बात जव़ा होते है -
और उस आसमां के साथ हम भी बहुत रोते है.....

A Tribute...

Hazaaro khwahishe aisi ki har khwahish pe dam nikle,
Bahut nikle mere armaan, lekin fir bhi kam nikle...
Khwahish thi unke aane ki,
Aake fir na jane ki,
Par hum the nadaan ye kaise bataye,
Saare sapne ho chuke the paray,
Sath thi to bas meri tanhai...


Aur ek khwahish unke aane ki,
Aake fir na jane ki......

Andhakaar bhi zaroori hai...

Andhakaar bhi zaroori hai...


Ujale ko pehchanne ke liye,
Khud se parichay karane ke liye,
Bheed me kahi kho jane ke liye,
Kuch samajh pane ke liye...


Andhakaar bhi zaroori hai...


Soch ko sahi disha dene ke liye,
Shatru pe vaar karne ke liye,
Kshadik bhar vishraam karne ke liye,
Naya suraj ugne ke liye...


Andhakaar bhi zaroori hai...


Dil ko sukoon dene ke liye,
Ek uski justju lene ke liye,
Pal bhar ki khushi ke liye,
Naye jiwan ke udbhav ke liye...


...Andhakaar bhi zaroori hai

Intezaar

Koi kaise manaye us ruthe dil ko
Jo humse naraz hoke baitha hai,
Koi kaise bataye unhe ki 
Jakhm yaha bhi utna hi gehra hai
Dard yaha bhi mukammal hai...


Naadani thi humari par ruswa hue dono,
Gustakhi thi humari par juda hue dono.
Ab humare hath me kuch bhi nahi,
Hum chah kar bhi unhe bhula nahi pate,
Wo ab nahi hai humare ye khud ko samjha nahi pate,
Ab bas chalte chale jate hai un tanha raaho pe,
Is jhooti tasalli se ki agle hi mod pe wo humre ru-ba-ru honge...

Feelings

I am lonely inside but I cant display,
It comes and goes like a quick replay,
My heart is stuck and my mind wont work,
And I am not as good as used to play.

The phenomenon often blinds my feelings,
It makes me awake and snatches my dreams,
But I manage to return to reality somehow,
Alas! The world is not a good place as it seems.

I learned few things due to this,
It makes me more subtle for the bliss,
And even when I will b far away,
This will be with me forever, I wish.

Yaadein

Koshish to ki thi par unhe kaise bhulaye,
Katre katre se hum unki yaadein samet laye,
Samet laye wo pal jab hum sath the,
Annkhe to thi jhuki par haatho me haath the,
Aarzoo thi ki zindagi unhi ki baahoein me guzre,
Unhi ki panaaho me meri jaan nikle.


Par na jana tha ye aankh khulegi to kuch na hoga,
Na tum,
Na tumhari panah,
Na tumhari hukumat hogi...


Par is dard ko koi kaise mitaye,
Jo kabhi hua hi na ho hum use kaise bhulaye......

Unemploymenthood

Depressed dejected deep in solitude,
In the melancholy of unemployment-hood,
I found a way to live in need of livelihood,
"Forget yourself and live for others"
is the thing I came for on-board.


Things were better earlier when I was there,
Success and happiness were in the air,
But the day didn't come of my Resurrection,
And I was left alone in my despair.


I had an option which I didn't want to choose,
As it'll land me up I ended where,
And when the time came to move on,
No one was there to bid me fare.


Now I am here where my dreams don't stay,
Waiting for a miracle to happen in my way,
Yes, I want them to be happy but I too have my say,
Everything do end well, this is what I pray...

Main Zinda Hoon

Main zinda hoon kyunki
Abhi bhi kuch dua baki hai,
Abhi bhi kuch sazde adhoore hai,
Abhi bhi ek aas hai dil me,
Abhi bhi dhadakta hai dil unke naam se...


Main zinda hoon kyunki
Abhi bhi unki saanse chal rahi hai,
Abhi bhi aarzoo hai unse guft-a-gu ki,
Abhi bhi milne ki khwahish mukammal hai,
Abhi bhi zakhm taza hai...


Main zinda hoon kyunki
Abhi bhi marne ki aarzoo puri hui nai hai,
Kafan abhi sila nai hai,
Kuch faisle abhi bhi baki hai,
Kyunki ek aakhri jhalak baki hai
Isliye...


Main zinda hoon...
