Os ki boond ...





















Os ki boondon ne li kaisi angrai hai
lagta hai ki aaj samandar mein nahai hai

hawa bhi hai kuch bekhud si, kuch alsaai si
jaise kaale baadlon sang aalingan kar aai hai

sajni ke aankhon mein aaj chamak hai ajab si
lagta hai saajan ke aane ki khabar aai hai

bhawrein ne dekho pankh fadfadaya hai apna
Kahin koi kali phool ban itraai hai


tere chehre se jaalim nazar hi nahin hat.ti
ye kaun si muskaan aaj tu odh aayi hai.

Hasratein ...




Hai hasrat yehi ki...
    phir tumse mulaakat ho,

Gar lab rahein khamosh...
    to nazron se baat ho,

Manzil mil hi jaaye...
    koi zaroori to nahin,

Par jab tak rahe safar...
    bas tumhara saath ho.

Intezaar ...
















Intezaar ki ghadiyaan khatm nahin hoti

Tere pyar ka samandar gehraata jaata hai

Main bas doobta chala jaata hoon
Koi patwaar haath na aata hai.

The child in you...











As an adult we always say that our childhood has gone and then we go to the memory lane and live that time again. But what I want to say that childhood surely goes with the time but not the child in you. It remains within you, always.

As we grow, we learn to inhibit our childish behaviour to the extent of our age. Sometimes we inhibit it due to our elders’ pressure and sometimes to avoid annoyance by people. But it is a bit natural that what is lie within you will come out now and then in various other ways.

Surely, you have noticed it that when we are among the children we behave like them and play quite naturally and easily with them. A child doesn’t change his behaviour according to the person he is interacting with. He shows his same natural behaviour to everyone, whether the person is elder or younger to him. But as we become older we learn to behave differently with different person and here our mind plays the major role. We call it maturity […with respect].

We don’t notice that we are lacking emotional release which is quite natural and necessary to soothe our mind and for inner peace. During our childhood we used to laugh and cry by very simple reasons but as an adult, when we want to cry, we don’t and when we want to laugh, we simply smile. For an adult, to cry is taken as a part of weak personality, especially for men.

This constant suppression of emotions leads to some other psychological problems like anxiety, depression etc. Nowadays, we are seeing that “laughing clubs” are becoming popular among adults and over-aged people in various societies. It is the outcome of our mechanical life. Here people deliberately laughs together without any reason. But in real life, when they have reasons to do so, they hesitates.

yeah..sometimes we could not resist to show our childish behaviour, especially when we are among the friends and also with our parents. The reason, perhaps, “to err is human” [… laughs].

so, if we try to make our life less mechanical and let allow the child in us to come out time to time, we would be able to make our life more interesting and lively.

Madhoshi ...
















Un hawaon ne mujhe ...
        madhosh kar diya

Jo tumhe chchu kar ...
        mujh tak aayi hain

Hosh mein tab bhi nahi tha ...
        jab tumhare kareeb tha

Hosh mein ab bhi nahi jab ...
        tumhari yadon ne baahein failayi hain.

Har Pal Tere Naam ...














Jin palon mein tum mere saath nahi hoti
vey  kyon meri jindagi mein aate hain

yaadon ke uthte bawandar
kyon aa aakar mujhe satate hain

har waqt tumhe dil sochta hai
har pal tere naam ho jaate hain

tumhari khushboo saanson mein basti hai
tumhare ehsaas chu chu se jaate hain

in faaslon ki chubhan kuch aisi hai
bas aankein nam kar jaate hai

Yaadon Ki Tapish ...


dheere dheere ...haule haule ...
sarakta hai ye pal
koi hawa to chale
jo ise raftaar de

dhadkane jo dhadakti hain
ye to unki hain
meri to kabki bikhar gayi ... tootkar
unki yaadon ki tapish mein.

Humsafar ...





















Tumhare khoobsurat aankhon ki ...
    nami churaane aaya hoon,

Pyar jo dil mein hai...
    sab tujhpar lootane aaya hoon,

Char pal jindagi ki...
    jindagi  si  lage,

Isliye tujhe apna ...
    humsafar banane aaya hoon.

Dhoondh Leta Hoon ...
























Unki chahat ko...
    ankhon mein dhoondh leta hoon


Unki khushboo ko...
    saanson mein dhoondh leta hoon


Mujhe dekhkar Jab ...
    mushkura deti hai woh


Us pal mein main ...
    jindagi dhoondh leta hoon.
