udaan falak tak......

agar hai khud me himmat tujhko,
ja udd parinde dur talak,
chhu ja kar unche falak ko tu,
tera kya koi bigaar sake,
tu uncha sabse udd chuka,

tere pankho ki farar awaaz hai,
kaano me gunjit lay jaisi,
tere hausle se mujhko milti taakat,
teri unchai meri manzil,

jo mann me tere armaan uthe,
un armaano ko mat yu daba,
pankh faila tu swaagat kar,
un sapno sahit hawao ka,
aur durr nikal, ja dur nikal,

jo janzeere pairo ko baandhe,
un janzeero ko kaat nikal,
jo thandi thandi hawaa bahe,
un hawa ko pichhe chhod nikal,

tu kar sakta, himmat tujhme,
ja dur ashim gagan me ja,
aur kar saabit udna apna,
ja pura kar apna sapna,

dharti bhi tujhko bol pade,
itna uncha tu kaha gaya,
meri nazare tujhko dhundh rahi,
kab lautega tu ghar apna,

tu keh de main bas aata hu,
karke duri tay akaash talak,
sapne pure karke apne,
bas aa raha main ghar apne,

bas aa raha main ghar apne,
bas aa raha main ghar apne.......

WASHINGTON POST COMPETITION ASKED FOR A TWO-LINE RHYME WITH THE MOST ROMANTIC FIRST LINE, BUT THE LEAST ROMANTIC SECOND LINE



 This is the winner


 My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife,
 Marrying you screwed up my life.


 Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss
 but I only slept with you, cause I was pissed


 I see your face when I am dreaming.
 That's why I always wake up screaming.


 Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
 This describes everything you are not.


 I thought that I could love no other --
 that is until I met your sister.


 Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
 But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty and so are you.


 I want to feel your sweet embrace;
 But don't take that paper bag off your face.


 I love your smile, your face, and your eyes --
 Damn, I'm good at telling lies!


 My love, you take my breath away.
 What have you stepped in to smell this way?


 My feelings for you no words can tell,
 Except for maybe 'Go to hell.'


 What inspired this amorous rhyme?

अब तुम्हारा प्यार भी मुझको नहीं स्वीकार प्रेयसि (Now I can't even accept your Love my Beloved)

अब तुम्हारा प्यार भी मुझको नहीं स्वीकार प्रेयसि !
चाहता था जब हृदय बनना तुम्हारा ही पुजारी,
छीनकर सर्वस्व मेरा तब कहा तुमने भिखारी,
आँसुओं से रात दिन मैंने चरण धोये तुम्हारे,
पर न भीगी एक क्षण भी चिर निठुर चितवन तुम्हारी,
जब तरस कर आज पूजा-भावना ही मर चुकी है,
तुम चलीं मुझको दिखाने भावमय संसार प्रेयसि !
अब तुम्हारा प्यार भी मुझको नहीं स्वीकार प्रेयसि !

भावना ही जब नहीं तो व्यर्थ पूजन और अर्चन,
व्यर्थ है फिर देवता भी, व्यर्थ फिर मन का समर्पण,
सत्य तो यह है कि जग में पूज्य केवल भावना ही,
देवता तो भावना की तृप्ति का बस एक साधन,
तृप्ति का वरदान दोनों के परे जो-वह समय है,
जब समय ही वह न तो फिर व्यर्थ सब आधार प्रेयसि !
अब तुम्हारा प्यार भी मुझको नहीं स्वीकार प्रेयसि !

अब मचलते हैं न नयनों में कभी रंगीन सपने,
हैं गये भर से थे जो हृदय में घाव तुमने,
कल्पना में अब परी बनकर उतर पाती नहीं तुम,
पास जो थे हैं स्वयं तुमने मिटाये चिह्न अपने,
दग्ध मन में जब तुम्हारी याद ही बाक़ी न कोई,
फिर कहाँ से मैं करूँ आरम्भ यह व्यापार प्रेयसि !
अब तुम्हारा प्यार भी मुझको नहीं स्वीकार प्रेयसि !

अश्रु-सी है आज तिरती याद उस दिन की नजर में,
थी पड़ी जब नाव अपनी काल तूफ़ानी भँवर में,
कूल पर तब हो खड़ीं तुम व्यंग मुझ पर कर रही थीं,
पा सका था पार मैं खुद डूबकर सागर-लहर में,
हर लहर ही आज जब लगने लगी है पार मुझको,
तुम चलीं देने मुझे तब एक जड़ पतवार प्रेयसि !
अब तुम्हारा प्यार भी मुझको नहीं स्वीकार प्रेयसि !

"SELDOM & KEEN"

The two beings felt some
shame left and their journey
offererd them some rest..

They found pleasure
with each other, wandering
in that care free ground

That time there was no love
and even no hatred found...

Everything was so peaceful,
delighting yet maneuvering

And in there view
it was all new..

They didin't realise
how would it possibly be..

As there were no bounds
and not even a key

Then that carefree ground
became  the world...

It was turning into
a big havoc and
slowly we were seeing time
in the world clock

Boundaries were drawn
humans diffrentiating
between dusk and dawn..

They see solace now
far and gone..
there was also a time when i was born..

Humans still treated each other well
but now they can throw each other
into a well

So the two came together
laughed and cried
thought , their pleasure was
nearly a bribe..

Afterwhich, this world
couln't survive

The world couldn't
survive...

Life of Sorrow

I assumed my life as flowers of happiness,
Without accepting the reality,
Creating and synthesizing it with vanity.
Unable to find the reason of sorrow,
Getting it to make a vase of morrow!

Wanted the approach of life to be sharp,
Without  understanding the carp.
Dwelling and Blending the waves of follies,
Assured myself to be alone in the rollies.

I do not get the answer to the question is aroused,
Even know not why and wht is the answer to my subturge.
Attitude and mellitude to walk parallely,
Exibiting the obscurity to transcend melliciously.

There is always a ray of hope, I think,
But no way to determine the thought that blink.
Agony and chaos survive all the way,
And hardly happiness resides on a stay.
Pure, impure are just words of regerence,
Enthrilling and Encouraging the negative reference.

Static view opt on streams of livelihood,
No one understands the situation of my attitudes.
I am all the way alone in my life,
Which my greatest unhapppy experience of thought to survive.

There is  all darkness and silence prevailing,
Nothing to say and wider the view  for revealing,
Not one, not twice I thought of giving a console,
But what to say of the Heart which is not noel.

I am senisitive to all aspects and views,
Hardly what to say if the dear accuse.
Thinking, getting no way to move in ocean of tears,
I am surrounded all way alone of sad cheers.

Love is not to be explained but to be experienced,
Making only things to die out of experience.
There is no ownness of my friend to be felt,
Rather everywhere is only sorrows to knelt.

Oh! my poor Heart who always is disheartened,
But is in my way of hope that to be enlightened.
His concious touch surrogate my Heart,
Which is  an innovative experience to bart!

That is why I say -

I assured life full of flowers of happiness
Without accepting the reality,
Creating and Synthesizing it with vanity,
Unable to find the reason of sorrow,
Getting it to make a vase of morrow!!
