A birthday poem for me and my reply...
A friend sent this on my bday
Aapne chupa ke rakha ki aapka janam din hai,
Fir bhi duniya walon ne bata diya......
Kabhi hindi main kavita nahi likhi
Toh is shubh divas par shuru kiya!
Janam din ki hardik shubkamnayen
Aapki har aasha poori ho!
Aage badho, safal raho, ladki dhoondo!
Kya pata? Aapke vajah se do-chaar aur goldy ho? ;)
and my reply to her....
Padh kar aapki yeh pyaar bhari panktiyan
Hua mujhe ehsaas, ki mainey kya galat kiya
Khil utha mera yeh murjhata hua chehra
Jab meri bhool nay tumhe kavi bana diya
Jo yaad kar liya hamey in panktiyon main tumney
Is naacheez kay janamdin ko aur khaas bana diya
Fida ho jayegi ab har sunheri pari humpar
Jab tumney is chehre ko muskurahat ka ghar bana diya.....
Aapne chupa ke rakha ki aapka janam din hai,
Fir bhi duniya walon ne bata diya......

On a Wing & a Prayer
What weird games they play
With a new facade each day
They say we hunt in packs
Like needles in a hay stack
Often they, hunter's, get hunted
One door to other, get shunted..........
They take pride in their exclusivity
Solemn kings of their doomed city
Somalia puts their results to shame
Empty minds, find no one to blame
Our meetings are like pot-boilers
But alas, we get no spoilers....
Our Marriage was a celebrated event
We all knew what "faith" it meant
The day "faith" was chosen by democracy,
Today, killed by nepotism and secrecy,
On a Wing and a prayer, we now are living,
But soon, there shall be an uprising
But soon, there shall be an uprising..........

bas thodi duur aur.....
Rishton ka dhaaga kuch aisey toot raha tha,
maano raat say chandani ka saath choot raha tha,
ashk bhari aankhen kar rahi thi nayi subah ka inteezar,
woh ashk tho sookh gaye par raat thi barkarar...
kya in dhaagon ko phir jod paaonga sochtha hoon main,
par phir bikhri zindagiyon ko sametana chahta hoon main,
teri zindagi kay khoye hue lamhon ko lauta nahin sakta main,
par teri in tanhaiyon ko duur karna chahta hoon main....
bas ab aur is jeevan say na-ummeed na hona tum,
bas thodi duur aur mera bina chal lena tum,
us naye savere ka aagaz ho raha hain dekho,
aaney wali nayi zindagi ki kadmon ki aahat tho suno,
tumhara aaj tumhare kal ko dekh kar khush ho raha hain,
kyonki woh un haseen rishton ko phir judta dekh raha hain...

The Secret Keepers...
She held him close to her breast,
whispering in his ear, her anxiety put to rest,
fingers pressed against her lips, she smiled,
"Shhhh..Dont tell anyone", was the meaning implied...
Little did the child realise what had transpired,
"I, The Secret" was born, "I", who his mother fathered,
As the child hid "me" inside his innocent smile,
"I" gave him friendships that will last many miles..
He now was one amongst them, whose "I" was the postilion,
"The Secret keepers" they are, a guild of many killions....
Spread around us, to cheer up our lives they try,
give us their shoulder when we so wish to cry,
friends, foes, family, they house them all
,they are always there for us, be it summer or fall,
In them we place all our trust,
lest a day comes, when the bubble goes bust...
They are the pandora's box, they are it's keys,
A life without them, a lonely boat in the open seas,
At times we fear, the faceless traitor amidst them,
Trust us, they say, Don't let that fear stem...
As I bid goodbye to all my unwanted fears,
assured my secrets wont flow, even in their tears,
I Thank god that I am not a solitary reaper,
for I am blessed with a hundred thousand "Secret Keepers"...

kya isi ka naam zindagi hain...
kyon yeh talaash kabhi khatam hoti nahin hain,
hamesha kuch aur paaney ki pyaas bhujthi nahin hain,
nazar pherta rehta hoon un choti choti khushiyon say,
aur khota rehta hoon hazaar maukey phir jee uthney kay,
kabhi, baith kar jab bayan karta hoon apni yeh dastaan,
kehte hain sabhi, "dost, shayad isi ka naam zindagi hain"....

aaj aur kal...
har lamha lamha mujhsey keh raha hain,
apney aaj ko jee lay, kal tera ghumshuda hain,
mana dekhe hain tuney sunheray kal kay sapney,
par khuli aankon say aapney aaj ko kyon kho raha hain...
apney aaj ko jee lay, kal tera ghumshuda hain,
mana dekhe hain tuney sunheray kal kay sapney,
par khuli aankon say aapney aaj ko kyon kho raha hain...

A train of thought...
A train of thought leaves the mind,
with hope and faith left behind,
Says Dont fear the pain or the grind,
the castle of my dreams I shall surely find..
