every single thought that we have
action that we take
decision that we make
has both happiness and sadness
hanging on the edges

after all, what brings sadness to me
can bring joy to you

~ the matter of perspective

दिन के चार पहरों में से
ग़र तुम एक भी मेरे नाम कर दो

तो जितने गिले शिकवे मुझे तुम से हैं
वो पलक झपकते भूल सकता हूँ मै

-

कभी यारी दोस्ती में मुझे यूँ ही गिन लिया करो जनाब,
ये जो तुम्हारी ग़ैरों से यारियों के चर्चे हैं,
ये दिल बोहत दुखाते हैं

-

हर रोज़ जो तुझे ख़त लिखे थे मैंने,
वो आज जाने को तैयार हैं

तुझ तक पोहचाने को मैंने क़बूतरों
को भी मना लिया है

मसला बस इतना है
के तेरे पते का पता लापता है

-

We address women as delicate and
fragile as a flower and we take it
so seriously that we often forget
exploiting a flower physically
and exploiting a women
physically are not the same.

~ the line of difference

There's a yellow dot in the sky,
the kind which brings its hues
when it comes and leaves the
sky tinted for a while
even after leaving.

I call it "My Shams".

Some memories you can't
hang on a wall in your room.

They have a special place.

In the walls of your heart.
With a bleeding nail
and a lot of scars.

~ To the silent sea ~

Like a brimming river
I follow my course.

It doesn't matter
how or what I want,
it always leads me to you.

-

Oh dear sleep,
I would so much love
to be your friend again
If only you let me!

-

तुमने यू छोडा़ मुझे के नींदे मेरी साथ ले गऐ,
गम तो चल जाएंगे पर तुम खुशियों की आस ले गऐ
