Under the night sky
I think of the crescent moon
That holds the smile all through
When stars fill up my room
When fireflies ignite with full bloom
Walking down the empty streets
I find you roaming in my dreams

-

How I view the life
Probably there's no one
I see the sadness in everything
In chills of December, In forthcoming
autumn after springs, In the
scroaching heat of summer
Probably that's what I'm made of
I see nothing but the darkness
that I'm beholding within my heart
That's drowning all the light
around me

And today I haven't felt the
same, as I felt year back
You are not in my mind
Finally the time took us apart
That time I used to think, how it's
like to be as I'm today
Now I don't frequently think of you
Now my eyes don't get wet
Now I'm not afraid of losing you
Now I don't fear, how I'll live
without you
I've learnt how to survive
I just realized, now you aren't
as special as you were
It was my feeling that made you

कैसे बोल दूँ तुम्हे
कि अब तुम दर्द की वजह बन गए हो
जब भी तुम्हे सोचती हूँ
तुम आते हो मिलने मुझसे आँसू बनकर
शायद महसूस तो तुम्हे भी होती होगी
मेरी तन्हाई
लेकिन आदत है तुम्हे साथ इसके जीने की
बुरा तो लगता होगा तुम्हे भी
लेकिन ये सब तो तुम्हारी आदतों में शूमार है
और आदते कहा बदलती है इतने कम वक़्त में
कैसे बोल दूँ तुम्हे
कि अब तुम दर्द की वजह बन गए हो
ये जानते हुए भी कभी जो तुम मुझे सोचोगे,
तो निकल आयेंगे तुम्हारे भी आंशू
कभी जो तुम्हे दर्द महसूस होगा,
तो तुम मुझे दिए दर्द को उसकी वजह बताओगे
ऐसे में कैसे रोकूँगी उन आँखों
को रोने से
जिनके लिए हमेशा बस माँगी हो दुआ
प्यारे सपनो की
ढेरो खुशियों की

now that you aren't the same
as you were
tell me what I do of this feeling
that's inside me
i don't know how to deal with this
it's like I was dreaming all night,
and woke up with no clue
i learned to live with myself,
through hard ways
I was secure in dark, but i turned
like moth to the flames
but now it's been long, I haven't
lived with myself
so i doesn't like my company
anymore
i think i got used to you
now this silence hits me harder,
than the noises that i hear around

-

Trees letting go of their leaves in winter

-

Probably it's the sluggish ones
That holds the connection till last

At the seashore we think of the waves
that gives the peace and eternal joy
By forgetting how to embrace the wild waves
that still are learning to synchronize
that still yearning for harmony

Sailors sail in the oceans
along with all the highs and lows
Sea birds roam, across the oceans
with the winds to chase the waves
By learning how to deal with
Cuz those who loves the oceans
They love it's fears, it's giant waves
and it's tranquillizing peace

Of all the stories that ends,
there's phoenix that remains hidden
A little blow of wind,
probably can rise the enormous flames,
probably the stories that we live
in our imagination,
can't be knitted on the grounds of reality.
But there's hope that crosses the
oceans to built a home of love,
Probably we don't want them for ever,
rather we search for ever in the moments.
