KHAMOSHI..../ ख़ामोशी....

Likh aye thhe ham thodi khamoshi, kuch kavitayein, ret par,
na jane kyun use mitakar tum de gaye ek khali seep

Shayad nahin rakhna chahte ho kuchh bhi apne paas...khamoshi bhi nahin...

लिख आये थे हम थोड़ी ख़ामोशी, कुछ कवितायेँ, रेत पर,
न जाने क्यूँ उसे मिटाकर तुम दे गए एक ख़ाली सीप

शायद नहीं रखना चाहते हो कुछ भी अपने पास...ख़ामोशी भी नहीं...

YE AATE ZAROOR HAIN..../ ये आते ज़रूर हैं....

Kabhi payal ki tarah,
khanakte huye.
Kabhi paon mein chhale liye,
aate zaroor hain.
Jagti ankhon mein,
Neend mein khoi ankhon mein,
aate zaroor hain.
Jane kyun ye sapnoN jaisi yadein,
ye yadon mein badalte sapne,
dastak dete hain mehman bankar.
Us waqt jab,
na hum so rahe hote hain,
na hum jag rahe hote hain,
hote hain bas,
ik anchinhe khumar mein,
ye aate zaroor hain.....

कभी पायल की तरह खनकते हुए,
कभी पाँव में छाले लिए,
आते ज़रूर हैं।
जागती आँखों में,
नींद में खोई आँखों में,
आते ज़रूर हैं।
जाने क्यूँ ये सपनों जैसी यादें,
ये यादों में बदलते सपने,
दस्तक देते हैं मेहमान बनकर।
उस वक़्त जब,
न हम सो रहे होते हैं,
न हम जग रहे होते हैं,
होते हैं बस,
एक अनचीन्हे ख़ुमार में,
ये आते ज़रूर हैं......

JAB SUNNA CHAHA …/ जब सुनना चाहा……

Jab sunna chaha 

us shakh pe pyase patte 

kya gunguna rahe hain

hamne sun liya

Jab sunna chaha 

dur kisi registaan ke 

befikra ret ki dastaan 

hamne sun liya

Jab sunna chaha 

tumhare bheetar dhadakta

gungunata hua dil

hamne sun liya

Jab sunna chaha 

hamne apne hi dil ko

tumhara naam pukarte hue

hamne sun liya...

जब सुनना चाहा
उस शाख पे प्यासे  पत्ते
क्या गुनगुना रहे हैं

हमने सुन लिया

जब सुनना चाहा
दूर किसी रेगिस्तान के
बेफ़िक्र रेत की दास्तान
हमने सुन लिया

जब सुनना चाहा 

तुम्हारे भीतर धड़कता 

गुनगुनाता हुआ दिल 

हमने सुन लिया 

जब सुनना चाहा 

हमने अपने ही दिल को 

तुम्हारा नाम पुकारते हुए 

हमने सुन लिया ..

KHAYAL.../ ख़याल.....

Auron ko samajhne mein yoon hi waqt zaya kiya hamne,
Khud ko samajh liya hota, toh bechainiyaan kam hoti hamari.....

औरों को समझने में यूँ ही वक़्त ज़ाया किया हमने,
ख़ुद को समझ लिया होता, तो बेचैनियाँ कम होतीं हमारी.....

SATH SATH..../ साथ साथ...

Kabhi tum sawaal, kabhi hum.
Kabhi tum jawaab, kabhi hum.
Sawaalon ke jawab,
jawaabon pe sawaal,
Shayad yahi hai behna,
Sath sath, saans lete huye.....

कभी तुम सवाल, कभी हम.
कभी तुम जवाब, कभी हम.
सवालों के जवाब,
जवाबों पे सवाल,
शायद यही है बहना,
साथ साथ, साँस लेते हुए....

LOVE LIBERATES....

Just reading her, just listening to her teaches you so much... I do not know about others but whenever I read her quotes or come across a piece of composition by her I can not help but wonder, how accurately it resonates with me !! That is the power , the beauty of her words, simple yet so powerful, each and every word. No wonder she has been and continues to remain an inspiration to many ,men and women alike..I love you Maya Angelou. Yes, love liberates...


“Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.”
― Maya Angelou...

Rest in Paradise angel.... and forever in my heart..... You are and will remain one of my favourite windows to the world of writing..

(Winfrey released a statement Wednesday calling Angelou her mentor, "mother/sister" and friend.

"She was there for me always, guiding me through some of the most important years of my life. The world knows her as a poet but at the heart of her, she was a teacher. 'When you learn, teach. When you get, give' is one of my best lessons from her," Winfrey said.

"But what stands out to me most about Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it's how she lived her life. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace. I loved her and I know she loved me. I will profoundly miss her. She will always be the rainbow in my clouds.")

ALONENESS... :)

Rainkissed black coffee,

memories and the moments,

drizzling aloneness....

THAT MOMENT...

That moment when the only song playing on loop is cacophony of birds...with an occasional lip sync by the beetles and the crickets...that moment when the sunrays shrouded in fog carress your cheeks 'houle se', that moment when the ' me' and 'you' becomes 'us', effortlessly...yes effortlessly.. That moment when the wind whispers a long forgotten lullaby in your ears and a drop of rain on the cheeks reminds you of that first kiss...that moment when silence speaks and you listen...that moment when love means holding hands and an emoticon is enough to convey millions...yes.. That is THE moment.....

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY....

The many words which throughout the day,
I weave, hoping to share with you.
By dusk,half of the 'many words'
seem irrelevant.
By night, half remain
misconstrued.
What we both understand
are the 'never
spoken' words,
which you thought and I devoured.....

......Yes, this includes the sweetest 

and the bitterest,

also the heard

and the listened.

By morning we forget

half of the littlest,

and soon it is 

another beautiful day.
