मोहब्बत तो जिंदा रहेगी तेरे इंतजार में
डर तो चाव का है कहीं दम ना तोड़ दे

मिस काल से आज भी हमको
एक बात का एहसास होता है !!
सच हो या यह भले झूठ हो
कि कोई हमे याद तो करता है !!
मिलने न आए बेशक ही पर
कुछ लम्हे हम पर बरबाद तो करता है!!

-

वह सितारा मेरा नहीं था,
जिसे मैं रोज उस आसमान में देखा करती हूं।
मालूम न था पहले हमें की ,
उसकी रोशनी तो किसी और के ही आंगन ,
को जाकर रोज रोशन किया करती है ।

Eyes so somberly stricken and painted upon the face like the eighteen hundredths' art.
The poet wished to find the artist for eyes such,
Settling for some coward who called himself a lion.
"He was braver than most" thought the poet, thinking twice while reading the words written for the grand feline who was one disguised phantom.
The poet was one alchemist,
Turning the black and white to golden to paint all of it blue,
And all at ones when the ink bled over the sporadic tinkers,
Suddenly all of it was grey.
The beautiful fibs the poet found all over his eyes, his words, his smile, his gaze, his presence and his everything,
Turned to be the phantoms over the midnight ceiling, filling the pages with a sense of forfeiture.
Solace stricken was the poet for the momentarily legendary life as the words spilled over the papers effortlessly,
The same words which now fill up glasses of sleeplessness and empty inebriations.

इतने शिद्दत (shiddat) से लगाव–ऐ–धूर्त होने लगे हैं शख़्स ।। अब हमने भी सवालों का सिलसिला पूछना ख़त्म कर दिया ।।

તારાં પર મારો કોઈ હક ના હોવાં છતાં પણ,
તારી આત્માને સ્પર્શવાનો અનેરો આનંદ આપી દીધો.

She doesn't smell like a rose.
The rose mere have the fragrance of her ✨

It's not love if someone runs after sensuality rather than the heartiest love.

-

My love is an ancient relic, so old and forgotten.

वाऱ्याची हळुवार साद
मनावर फक्त तुझेच पडसाद
मागे सारिती दुःखाचे अवसाद
वाट पाहिती डोळा तव प्रतिसाद
