This ugly stage
the messed up page;
Alluring, verdicts stop-
Should I burn it
Or just turn it
Make a tear or laugh it off
Where to put blame, all on me
What have I done!
What have I done!-
यूं ही कभी तुम बेवजह ऐसे गुमसुम तो नहीं रहते!
बहुत कुछ कह जाते हो तुम, जब कुछ नहीं कहते !!-
The wind whispered her secrets to me,
Perhaps, the eve overheard some...-
A glimpse of unknown silhouette;
So long, I felt these butterflies,
wondering, if before I met-
that stranger with smiling eyes!-
Words!
These days I read in your eyes,
It took you long to realise...
I did want to hear them yesterday
but now I wish, you never say.-
When I See You
*********************
It's been a while
As I compile;
What do you think of me?
I see your eyes
I see you smile
What could it really be!
Wish I knew tomorrow, to save you and me ... or us
What to say!
I too was carefree once and now to think, it was...
long, long away
I feel bad,
a little scared
When I smile and realise it was you.
I want to stay
to ask and say
but what stops you, stops me too
Do you believe in things like these?
Little smiles, pain and feelings...
Have you had your heart broken yet
Or watched the back of someone who left?
I have...
But I feel the things that I stopped...
when I see you.-
यूं हो कि रूमानी कोई हवा बहने लगे
दिल के खंडहर में कोई आकर रहने लगे
पहले भी एक इमारत सजाई थी हमनें,
वो कमजोर पत्थर एक-एक कर ढहने लगे
देखना ये है कि वो करते क्या हैं मोहब्बत में
यूं ही कैसे मान लें, जब कोई कहने लगे
इक बस उस हद से गुरेज़ है हमें मोहब्बत की,
जहां कोई ज़मीर पर हुआ हर वार भी सहने लगे-
रग-रग में बसा है जैसे मेरी,
इक कान्हा तेरा नाम...
मैं तेरी दीवानी मीरा,
तुम मीरा के श्याम...-
ज़ुबां से ना सही आँखों से, बातें होती रहनी चाहिए,
ज़िंदगी आसां नहीं माना, मगर साँसें चलती रहनी चाहिए...-
