Shadow of 'his' faith in our hands..

An angel he sees in every smile,
As we give, he seeks a single lie,
Looks into our eyes, hope abound,
Craves for a life, thinking aloud.

Sights the joy of life outside,
Ponders about pain, deep inside,
Loneliness, plays a perfect pal,
Sympathizes those who have it all.

Wakes the mind, dormant it seeks,
At the gate, the wall, a tiny peek,
Touch of hands, he craves a moment,
Love of those, who least pretends.

Faking thee happiness, shrills within,
In play and poise, tears unseen,
So drained from hope, a pity look,
With might petite, that long it took.

Scars, rooted in time, stay alive,
Wishing rays of joy, smiles to thrive,
Each day crosses a shack of faith,
Prayers lend by all around, in hate.

As a tear crashes his future unknown,
Path ahead awaits to embrace his soul,
Pure thought, divine so, his entity,
Hold his hand, walk truth, in empathy.

Care thy realm of innocence, withered,
Shower ambush of love, just not prayers,
Change a life, yours not, but we and us,
Save a life, chance to own, before it crushes..

Back with a revelation!!!

Little did I know,
Joy is not far behind,
We seek what's not,
Forget to see what lies,
Flashes in smiles,
Telling life's best days,
Dews that shine beneath eyes,
Drains away, never stays,
Happiness that lingers by Lear,
Teaches us life's essence,
Moments are not to tear,
Are for us to live and sense,
Now I have moved on,
Will I forever, I think,
Life's lesson got me, true,
Empowering words, embrace me,
Teaching days, never to sink..

Waking to the echo of joy,
Swearing in time, I vow,
Excitement, hidden in time,
Finding in all, peace and love,
Surfing through dust of doubt,
Exploring realms new, below,
Enjoying what comes in sight,
Tripping over a mystical stroll,
Lost, what I had within me,
To seek what I could not see,
Now I realize, haven stays within,
Joy and sorrow, is how we live it,
Over a new regime, a new life's tale,
With my faith bestowing me forever,
I seek the best, in what I do,
I know for sure, evil is near, never!!!

On a break, for a while!!!

Been long since I did log,
Missing the days, I blogged,
Couldn't enjoy some posts,
What I skipped, which I don't,
Read, enjoy, comment, what fun,
Missed it all, the damn run,
Am back, and getting to grind,
Will spill all that deep in mind,
But need some time, to crawl back,
To revive poetry, now that I lack,
So enjoy my untouched works, until,
That lay dormant so long, so still,
Read and feel, tell that's true,
Appreciate, criticize, or else new,
Will write soon some great verses,
Flowing like the symphony of tresses,
You all will be stunned, how cool,
That which sounds like tinkering gold.

I will soon be back with some great works of mine but until then, you may enjoy reading some of my untouched poetry which I have listed below along with the respective links...:) Read, enjoy, appreciate, criticize or say what you please..Would accept all that with welcoming spirit and improve upon if I do get hit!!! Note that these were written when I was an absolute amateur... So in case of grave mistakes, anticipatory apologies!! See you soon......:)

Tears rehash, in remembrance!

Realizing that its not too late,
Mind doesn't mind this long wait,
Feelings that pricked, long ago,
Slowly emerge that hidden sorrow.
Turning the pages of life, today,
How cursed was the eleventh day?
Reminisced in silence, and I wept,
For innocent souls who now slept.

Started calm, moving on, as cold,
Some came to see the wonder told,
Some waited, as loved ones arrived,
Some kept their routines alive.
Kids, lovers, pals, and wives,
Spent their day, with no strife,
Smiles, cheer embraced the air,
Lived the moment, as none cares.

In a flash, a sudden tremor, shook,
Hearts and eyes of those who looked,
Flames of cries, lured the bright sky,
What flies high was, now a reach by,
Prayers bestowed by strangers below,
Shrills echoed, painting their woes,
All stood hoping for the best, in time,
Crashed what was once, now lay in grime.

With dreams, destiny fought in vain,
Lives dithered in shades of pain,
Colors stroked of grey, black, and red,
Filled the scene, scents of dread.
Down time lane, we look back to ponder,
Stories that kids listen to, now in wonder,
Wish to rewind the moment, change the past,
Knowing still, this melancholy would last....

Have you?

Have you felt this way, like I seriously do today?
Have you desired the best, unique from the rest?
Have you awaited the new, among the very few?
Have you felt this low, your esteem so below?
Have you cried within, like no one has seen?
Have you smiled so fake, like life's at stake?

Have you pondered a while, good times gone by?
Have you felt this kind, like results rule the mind?
Have you yearned the love, wished you had it now?
Have you had faith in time, like I have in my rhyme?
Have you lived your dream, in your mystical realms?
Have you believed the truth, knowing it is just not?

Have you remained silent, as your eyes, in verses, it mend?
Have you deceived yourself, and has it made you feel small?
Have you counted time, in days, like today is the last of all?
Have you simply felt this, like a blessed life, is what I miss???
Have you felt this way, blessings shower you today, in bliss?

Love Omen

Frame of my dream, froze in time,
Sounds of nature draped its essence,
As eyes tweaked to view the beauty,
Heart vowed to capture his presence.

Staring the bright sky, serene he was,
Shadow of my passion dwelled, by him,
Steam of lust embraced the ambiance,
Smiles of mine tickled him for a grin.

Eyes, of such genre struck me in force,
To a land of fantasy, took me in time,
Where in his arms, I lay and relished,
In two hearts, I heard a single chime.

As I awake, heat from his soul, arouse,
Sweet lullaby, it pulled me into a roll,
His touch, so slow, chilled me, within,
Lingering beneath his haven, I crawl.

Moments moved on, as loneliness creeps,
Realizing the Utopian tale, I live in,
He was there yesterday, so I believed,
He still is there, in my love, my craving.

A soft breeze silently through, whispers,
You are now on your own, none is there,
Life can't be so good, good to be true,
He's left forever, sinking me in blue.

I now stare the darkness, that bestow,
I now leave his thoughts, for its' cold,
I feel the fresh love, that still lives,
I pacify my soul, as even today, it grieves....

As the elements fight over our lives....

What do I write today, I pondered, I thought?
What have I spoke of until now, what I've not?
Exhausted with rhythm of love, hope and life...
Percolated sorrows, wishes, dreams, so rife...
Let's change the symphony of my poetry, for once,
Let's groove into the mystery of nature, in trance,
Decided today, I would not rhyme, in sequence,
Decided, I would today, sing periodically, the tale of elements.


Time set foot, to arrive in pomp,
Lord wrote the unknown, in silence,
Donning love and peace, it trembled,
World ready to roll, in truth,
Bundled in, creations within,
Life spoke, in tones of smiles,
Elements flew, in speed, along,
Triplicities were here to triumph.

High spirits, direct honesty,
Dealing with freedom to express,
Assertive in nature, in thought,
Vitalizing energy in exuberance,
Friendly mocks dwell forever,
Projecting what is radiant,
Innocence it mirrors, so naive,
'Fire' seeks admiration for attainment...


Conventional speeches, cautious lines,
Attitude drives fields of achievement,
Sleeps by rules, breathes pure logic,
Chasing dreams, among the right trends,
Diligence falls over poor imagination,
Accommodating moments as they cross,
Stability flames, in spiritual waves,
Predictability is 'Earth' sign's loss...


Emphasis laid over ideas, indigenous,
Fantasy, a frequent visitor, in dreams,
Detaching from emotion, worldly laws,
Theory rules, practicality so dormant,
Proactive to be, planner - a second name,
Pondering each moment, a while to layer,
Blossoming to acts so weird, so lame,
Forever a learner, 'Air' carpets the rising stair...


Embraces feelings, in tune with life,
Sensitivity so intense, without strife,
Reciprocate to match the mind and heart,
Emotional bliss favors any despair craft,
Inhibits to learn, to nurture stable relations,
In mime, in forms, spontaneously one communicates,
Boiling in passion, as one seems obsessed,
Mood swing is 'Water' sign's single protest...


Antiquity defined, dominating philosophy, base of all origin, ruling life mystically!!

Where is the change?

Think of the torture life gifts us,
Does it feel it takes away our zest?
Think of the feelings that boil within,
Does it know, light is not to be seen?

Crossing walks that nestle our bonds,
Does it see, it may last or it won't?
Crazy is this struggle, tangling hearts,
Does it beat, to hear the loud laughs?

I have reached here, more to move on,
But moments aren't generous though,
I decide to spill expressions from core,
But life won't change, more to simply haul..

How to end this epitome?
How to engulf what's not?
How to empathize this soul?
How to employ more joy?

Yes, am tired, tired of all..
Tired of saying it, singing it..
Tired of feeling so small...

...of compromising,
...of being shun,
...of sacrificing,
...of being the one,
...of giving up,
...of not trying,
...of accepting fate,
...of self-lying,
...of loving all,
...of being hated,
...of being friendly,
...of being under-stated,
...of crying alone,
...of smiling fake,
...of giving joy to all,
...of my hopes at stake,
...of shutting heart,
...of letting mind talk,
...of crumbling up,
...of trying to crawl,
...of surviving, to live,
...of living now, still,
...of moving on like this,
...of not changing what is,
...of rhyming, my mind out,
...of saying, what's not,
...of what am I now...!!

Reflections that perspire..

Mirror, Mirror, tell me who do I see here..
On the other side, a blurred face, a known figure?
Is it the one who dwelled in peace, all these years?
Is it me, travelling back my past, I ponder and stare...?

She who walks by the shore,
A simple girl with wishes, many more..
She seems to take center-stage..
She seems to confidently steal the show..
Is it those feelings, I see all the time?
Is it me? A young soul who lives inside?

She shakes her beauty off the run,
Embraced in drapes of innocence...
She breaks a heart, as her wings sway..
She knows, she's eyed, as desires play..
Is it the eyes that pierced thoughts?
Is it me, who evolved for many to adore?

She turns mature, attractive, so chic,
Flaming aims in life, knocking each minute..
She drives her life, changing seasons..
She knows, she's right for every reason..
Is it the player who reigned her times?
Is it me, losing out fun, as triumph climbed?

She sees the change, and she moves on,
Noticing the white, she leaves it alone...
She now misses dancing in the rain, flamboyant...
She wishes moments to rewind, knowing it won't...
Is it the mind that sees nothing else to live?
Is it me, smiling in pain, not a reason to grieve?

Mirror, Mirror, I know that this is a reflection here..
Memories draining off leaving its essence to linger..
Wishing that this frame of life would be mended again..
Knowing that, living the gone is not a feasible game..

What If?

What if, you call me, in time,
What if, life says, you're mine,
What if, nights bring you to me,
What if, we know it’s meant to be,
What if, hands reach out, in cold,
What if, today, our fates unfold,
What if, destiny signals a ring,
What if, our desires clash, in sync,
What if, sights yearn for that look,
What if, feelings can't get through,
What if, eyes speak, in tunes known,
What if, distances reason, chances thrown,
What if, memories bind us in love,
What if, dreams come true, right now....

Fragrance bundled within time..

Walking by the store,
An aroma catches my sense,
Follow did I, in flow,
To capture thy fragrance.

In stillness, I reminiscence,
Mama's thrill in suspense,
Cake on fire, off the stove,
Relishing flavor, as bestowed.

Quite summers, within colors,
Cherishing essence of flowers,
Delicious ring, beyond thought,
Papa's drive gifting cocoa, hot.

Sis' strokes fly across the canvas, in blue,
I take a peek at the lovely hue,
Swinging feathers in a frame,
Desire sways, as turpentine flames.

Persia, I did not hear of yet,
Uncle smuggled a heap of love, far from there,
Attires glow now, a Mediterranean touch,
Perfumes embrace the simple Dutch.

Blushing, I play around,
Dancing in the nature's haunt,
Granny covers her angel, in love,
A heavenly scent, awakes my realm, below.

Sudden tremor, and the smells are all gone,
Am there, but my soul is now alone,
Shaking, I rise to move on, but,
Those scents, pull me back to rest,
Senses stay, as was once said,
Memories that now own my presence,
Life may wheel, until one dies,
Fragrances of time, will be forever alive...

Seeking a change...!

Leaving behind dithered, scraps that's quaint..

Walking silently towards the holy saint..
Seeking salvation, in unknown forms hidden...
Realizing not, what is beneath all these..

As mind and heart flavors a new origin...
Dormant eyes speak volumes, in grins..
Terrified, life begs a mirror in place..
And I am left with a share of my space..

Not this I asked for, pleaded in cries..
Eyes slowly awakens, smiles into my eyes..
Flash of a vision simmers across the pane..
Taking me through memories, moments insane..

Blink to find myself, in a spot unaware...
Embracing all new, starting with a prayer...
Heart skips a beat, to find myself renewed..
Breaks the morning dream, so good to be true..

Craving for the night again, I dim, I fade..
Facing the fresh in stillness, my life waves..
So uncertain, can my dream paint my future?
Will the new replace my present, for sure?

I still love you too....

I still love you,
yes I do...
Feelings for you,
haven't left me through...
I know, for sure,
that this is true,
what I have for you..

I still love you,
like you never do..
Crazy my heart spins,
as I see your hue..
Your heart refuses,
what my heart woos...
I know that this love,
you will never choose.....

I still love you,
yes, I will do...
Feelings for you,
will never leave me,
for good.....
Only if you knew,
what I've moved through..
Only if you could,
move me from this blue..

I still love you,
yes, I do...
Crazy, my heart dreams,
as I think of you...
Maybe, what I have,
is not what is new..
But I wonder, why
these memories,
did I chew....
Yes, I still love you,
but not the way,
you love me too...

Singing praises, Sins as deadly as it is!

Blinded by curses that's forbidden,
Embraced in clutches of evil,
Whispers stalk church to chapels,
Thee all, bears a child of devil,
Speak we, do the good in need,
Dormant, it sleeps deep within,
Minds so silent, in conscience,
Damn, awakes an everlasting terror...

Crushing, destroys grace of life,
Absorbed in vain, while confession,
Six things the Lord hateth, in tears,
Seventh, His soul loathes, thy creation,
Good virtues battle the evil vices,
Temptations live to sing the tale,
Good is cornered by evil, all ends,
Savior, to wipe all wrath, there's none...


Belief in abilities, as vanity rises,
Bearer of the deadliest, as christened,
Donning a disguise, in truth, in lies,
Fatal it seems, in progress, its 'pride'...


Desire for the rest, in joy, in distress,
Content, one is not with that bestowed,
Yearns for best, urges minds to plea,
Swallows generosity, for 'envy' to be...


Limit not known, in senses deprived,
To consume more, than what one could try,
Inordinate as all sees it, so loony,
Even money seems small, in front of 'gluttony'..


Pleasures and passion, in color that bleed,
Dreadful desires, taking to a high, in spirits
Rendered to a feeling, unknown in time..
Deformed by love, 'lust' indulges minds in crime..


Manifests fury, swaying decisions, so grim,
Hate overcomes shadow of peace and pun,
Second name to wrath, linked to danger,
Once near, none can save thee, not even 'anger'...


As realms of spirituality, turns its back on life,
Hearts long for gains, worth of debris, so old,
Life gets what it wants, cribs for what it needs..
Cycle of nature wheeling on, never ends one's greed...


Avoidance of effort, laying back in comfort,
Physical actions thrown away for the strong,
When you realize, you have been good for none..
Say cool! coz' you are a recipient of 'sloth'....

Timely Thoughts!!

Thinking aloud, my heart speaks,
Saying out right, what it means,
Eyes freeze with excitement abound,
Pondering, what's time all about?

Do mornings sleep, as the sun die?
Does the sky breathe, as heavens cry?
Do smiles bleed, as sorrows fade?
Does happiness rejoice, as is made?

Do angels guard, when the devil plays?
Does life embrace new, or what lays?
Do colors sing, when darkness graze?
Does love bring peace, as it sways?

Do pals turn the page of life's episode?
Does future foresee, what's yet untold?
Do ideas share a common mile, with truth?
Does fear shield faith, a mask of ruth?

Thinking aloud, my heart yearns,
For answers, I need in return,
Eyes filled with wonders abound,
Still pondering, what time mounts?

Senses, that live with us!

Touch, savoring thee divine love..
Love, in all pure minds below...
Mind, the seed of untold fantasy...
Fall, blindly in seek of what to be..

Kill, thy silent solitude, in time..
Time, churning our fates in mime..
Mime, an answer to our thoughts..
Thoughts, pondering what is not..

Joy, truth whispering in smiles..
Smile, bidding farewell to all lies..
Lies, donning attire to chase desires,
Desires, heart wishes for, till pyres..

Tears, percolating sorrows of pain,
Pain, losing heart to our realities,
Reality, viewed between life and death..
Death, preceding a world of what's not met!

Angels and Dreams...

Eyes smiled,

as dreams, in cheer, journeyed,
Cushioned,
felt homely, on a bloat of cotton,
Past by,
visions flew from,
prisoners to priests,
As I kissed,
the blessed floors,
of a new beginning.

White lilies,
in the pipa's sync, laughed in joy,
Symphony, in tunes,
echoed in eternity, as eyes left a sore,
Angels swaying about,
in baby pink and white,
All looks so peaceful,
as I reach the final ride.


Heaven, is it, I ponder?
These dreams awake me in tremor,
I believe my realm of angels,
Exist not within the skies,
For my fable ends on land,
As I live each moment of life..

So where am I?
In time, in peace?
I gather memories,
to embrace me in ease,
All I give, get,
suffer and celebrate,
Is not the end of my life,
but a path that leads to,
what I await...!

Missing, besides me....

You will think, beyond years,
You will wish that I was yours',
You will yearn for me, in time,
You will embrace a feeling, once mine.
You will say, you need me now,
You will miss my touch, in love,
You will need my look, in glance,
You will crave for my romance,
You will silently breathe my soul,
You will shed tears, with no control,
You will repent a decision, so lame,
You will paint your dreams in my name,
You will tremble, without me, besides,
You will live along pain and cries.
You will seek a life, that once you threw,
You will pray for a day, just me and you....

Decisions undecided....

Beautiful, my life seems today,
As I widen my realms to say,
Smiles dance around, in ecstasy,
Fresh dews sway my burdens away.

Mind was tangled, in decisions,
Life is now clear in my vision,
Thought and vowed that I will,
Time won't cease, this crazy thrill.

Love thy mine, may dither in vain,
Eyes cry now, not forever, in pain,
Friends we'll be, in sun and rain,
Feelings might change, not the flame.

Lame this feels, but not my faith
In shock, my desire may act in haste,
Pal of his, may turn his back forever,
Hope and love will flavor this craze!

Yet another day in love!!!

Mind wavers, as fresh thoughts flash,
Guilty, it feels to think like that,
Heart speaks, but mind silently halts,
Fantasy this is, not my dream catch.

Do love the one, for my life craves,
Breathe with the one, my soul yearns,
But visions paint thou, not mine today,
Will remain a fascination, forever sane.

Crazy this feels, but heart desires,
A look, a piercing feel, that you care,
A word, a true whisper, you'll be there,
A call, just now, my wish, my prayer.

Love, that's mine, you belong to him,
But eyes of love, embrace you within,
Obsession, you may say, is what I feel,
Destiny is laid, for my heart to deal.

Can prayers be heard, can a world change?
Can life be undone, can hope revive?
Can my reality die, can my dreams stay?
Can faith help me pass, can love survive?

Let's end it all!

There is a place,
in hearts galore..
A soft space,
that's left to sore..
Where love begins,
to slowly grow...
Wiping hatred,
no avenges, no more..

Blood bleeds around,
innocence shunned,
Cries echo in ground,
silence is mend,
Pain survives fear,
troubles, in trend,
Fresh beginnings,
hidden till the end...

Blind, life turns,
as peace seeks a friend,
Today, all seems uncertain,
none is left to defend,
Future, untold, unseen,
how long to pretend?
Craves for joy, within,
how can we be content?

Smiles, to enlighten,
hearts of stone, so grey,
Faith, to build in times,
as life strays..
May HE shower rays of hope,
in nights and day..
Let prayers be heard aloud,
as peace comes our way!

Been long...

Been long, since I, lost a pal over a ride.
Been long, since then, missed a soul, each while.
Been long, since I, laughed loud, than cried.
Been long, since then, felt low but never high.
Been long, since I, to ponder, gazed the sky.
Been long, since then, happiness bid good-bye.
Been long, since I gave life a second try.
Been long, since then, knew this is all a lie.
Been long, since I, wished to live than die.
Been long, since then, spent my days to sigh.
Been long, since I craved for love, besides.
Been long, since then, missed the crazy smiles.
Been long, since I, looked into his mystical eyes.
Been long, since then, he's here but not near by.
Been long, since I felt the touch, the words, so nice.
Been long, since then, felt the world splitting by.
Been long, since I thought of wiping past, but why?
Been long, since then, I embrace memories, that's mine.

Sunshine, where are thou?

They wake, they smile, they cheer, a while,
They shake, they sing, they caress a little wing.
They gather, they hug, they laugh, they snug,
They dance, they sigh, they bend low and high.

They gaze the rays, new, they wipe a drop, dew,
They bloom, they grew, in colors, pink and blue.
They wait, they see, they know the lie to be,
They dither, they cry, they know blacks' nearby.

They pray, they seek, for shines to peak,
They hold, they drown, for light’s far around.
They hum a tune, they sleep to frown,
They dream, they stare, a stroke of flare.

They wake, they smile, they cheer, a while,
They shake, they sing, they caress the little wing,
They gather, they hug, they laugh, then snug,
They dance, they cry, now that’s morning flowing by!

A walk by the woods..

Time bows to me, today,

As I walk past the moments,
Speed craves for a say,
As I halt to ask within.

Breeze whispers in peace,
As I blindly swing in love,
Spring sways me, in ease,
As I linger the woods below.

Morning rays caress, my lust,
As, in dreams I wake, alone,
Kids smile by, to win my trust,
As I, in vain, silently moan.

Reflection, shadows my faith,
As I sink myself, in hope,
Thoughts, play a game of truth,
As I walk away, to lure the new.

Mystery he was, that loved ones fail to solve....

In his soul, he felt the rhythm,
In his mind, he chained the melody,
In his moves, he captured triumph,

In his eyes, he visualized symphony.

In his music, he saw his childhood,
In his words, he felt being a teen,
In his acts, he tried being noble,
In his fame, he lost to be clean.
In his friends, he knew peace,
In his family, he reigned support,
In his love, he lost his faith,
In his life, he found no resort.

A day in my life....

As the drapes unfold,
the darkness within,
Rays of light shake,
my slumber in dreams,
Eyes wake to see,
a fresh day in scene,
Morning blankets the skies,
in heavenly realms,

Small strokes of white,
blend the blue in hue,
Chirping away to glory,
black dots add a cue,
Orange and yellow slowly,
embrace this vision,
Eyes struggle to focus,
mind wavers amidst the crimson.

With steam flowing from,
a cup of cappuccino,
I gaze at this beauty,
nature has painted, in time,
Thoughts roll in mind,
ponder a while, about some,
As I sip the last relish,
clouds cover the blue, in mime.

Wait for the shade,
to wipe off the black fallen,
Stroll the day soon,
fill my mind, that's swollen,
Gaze yet another moment,
towards the sky, unchanged,
Slowly, a snow drop, falls,
as it lights my world, from heaven.

Think about the, good and bad,
Things I have not and did have,
To pen, my words, some thought,
Curving a smile, I curl,
as night bestows.

Alone...!

All alone,
with silence around,
I wish, my love, you besides me,
I know, you also feel the same,
Tell me, our world,
is what you see.

All alone,
with pain around,
I seek, my love, your tears to be mine,
I want you to cover my fear,
You are my future,
my past, all in time.

All alone,
with smiles around,
I have, my love, what you need for now,
I care for you,
in seasons, in troubles,
Tell me, you believe,
our love is stronger, than our vows.

All alone,
with memories around,
I say, my love, is all what I need,
I love you,
let this loneliness die in darkness,
You are my reflection,
my life for which, I bleed.

Alone a while, in the crowd..

Strange, I feel, standing by the corner,
Ponder a thought, one at a time, in order,
Take a walk by the lonely lanes, at night,
Gaze the scenes that twinkle, in twilight.

Bustling dwellers surround me in silence,
Numb, my mind flows to a fresh ambiance,
Confined, memories flash in a weird sequence,
No feelings flow, no love, in his absence.

Your hand, so nervous, held my life, in time,
Your voice, it echoes, my dreams in chimes,
Your touch, wakes me, reminding the moments,
Your presence shakes me, flaring the scents.

Empty it seems, as I feel the space besides,
Cries of pain, all alone, in silent nights,
This world without you, how will I survive?
Say a prayer, in thought for you to be alive.

In the words of a to-be bride....

तस्वीर तेरी, आइना है मेरी, दुनिया ये तेरी, तकदीर है मेरी,
खुशियाँ तेरी, मुस्कान है मेरी, सासें ये तेरी, ज़िन्दगी है मेरी ...

दो दोस्तों कि दिल कि बात, सुनाऊँगी आज रात,
दो शादियों के महफिल यहाँ आज सजी है, एक दिल खुशी से दूसरा मायूसी से भरी है.....

पहले वाली कि दिल की बात .....
वो ज़िन्दगी, जो तेरे सात देखी, आज वो ही पल बार बार देखी,
लम्हे सही, हमारे प्यार अलग थी, आज तुम नहीं, कोई अजनबी देखी...
सपने हमारे सच होते इतने करीब देखी, वादें तेरे साथ बार बार देखी,
हर एक ख्वाब सच दिखने लगी, आज वो नहीं, भरी तन्हाई मिली.....

खुशी की दुनिया, सवार्तें देखी, प्यार की महफिल सजते हुए देखी,
मौसम के नखरे बदलते ही गई , ये आँखें आज नमि हुई देखी...
मौला के दुआ अब दूर हुई दिखी, दस्तूर ये मेरी, अब चूर हो चुकि,
फ़साना दिल का, किसि और ने लिखी, अब में किसि कि, तुम किसी और के हो चुकि.....



दूसरी कि दिल कि कट....
इस रात कि खामोशी में, ख्वाबों कि मदहोशी में,
तन्हाई अब मिट चुकि है, सासें अब थम चुकी है....
पीछे मूढ़ कर देखूं तो, तेरे साथ वो वादें दिखे,
आँखें बंध करुँ तो, तेरे साथ, मेरे सपने खिले....

ये रातें अब नहीं कट्ठी, तेरे हर झलक सताए मुझे,
इन लम्हों में घुटन सी लगती, तेरे याद तडपाये मुझे....
कब आएगी वो पल, तेरे साथ, पाऊंगी हसीं लम्हे, तेरे हाथ,
हर तरफ़ तेरा चेहरा सवारें मुझे, नई दुनिया की लहर, डरायें मुझे...
