एक वो रात ऐसी थी..





रुख्सार पर भी उसके मुस्कुराहटें थीं खेलती
हुजूम-ए-अश्क़ से तर दामन था एक वो रात ऐसी थी ।

चिराग-ए-मुर्दा था वहाँ इन्सानियत का अक्स
रोशनी भी थी शर्मसार एक वो रात ऐसी थी ।

एक  बेजान होती चीख़ और वो आह-ए-आतशी
आबरू थी बेहिजाब एक वो रात ऐसी थी ।

बेपरवाह था शहर औ नुक्कड़ों पे कानून के वो बुत
बने सब बेहया तमाशबीं एक वो रात ऐसी थी ।

चन्द एक हंगामों से सही हम ज़मीर के हमज़बाँ हुए
धधकती अब तलक है आग एक वो रात ऐसी थी ।

बाद-ए-मर्ग के भी पाँव कफ़न में है हिल रहा
फ़रिश्ते भी थे कश्मकश में एक वो रात ऐसी थी।

करो एक पल तो एहसास वो ख़लिश-ए-ख़ार  ऐ अहले वतन
हमसे ही कुछ रुख्सत हुआ एक वो रात ऐसी थी ।

a firefly...




                                 a firefly
                                 instills a life within a few wombs
                                 enlivening some souls
                                 dying in the dark
                                 patting a few sobbing hearts
                                 rejuvenating some weary strides
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on.

                                 vanishing some scars on psyche
                                 making forget all those pangs
                                 freeing from some fetters
                                 burning somewhere within
                                 illuminating the vibes yet
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on

                                 quenching the thirst of pursuing fellows
                                 stimulating a few latent desires
                                 measuring the limitless depth of gloom
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on

                                 embracing all the compassions
                                 imbibing all the sorrows
                                 sprouting some brand new hopes
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on.

another DAY...






                                                 Just now
                                                 I realized somewhere deep inside of me
                                                another DAY has gone
                                                without saying a word to me
                                                I keep on moping around
                                                why does it happen to me...
                                                but as always I never find an answer
                                                and then
                                                leaving me with all
                                                unanswered questions
                                                another DAY has gone...


                                                When you are here
                                                 I feel so content
                                                 even with your silence
                                                 they say its childish
                                                 but I have been finding the purest
                                                 reality in all these
                                                 definitely its going to hurt me
                                                 still I carry on
                                                 nothing really matters at all
                                                 and then
                                                 promising a false glimpse of yours
                                                 another DAY has gone...

                                             
                                                I know I am in dark all the way
                                                not any hope seems to get me out of this
                                                but your dreamy presence
                                                for an instance even
                                                lights up all my surroundings
                                                somewhere it means a lot to me
                                                when you say
                                                see you again
                                                I feel like having another life
                                                and then
                                                proving all my dreams,
                                                merely a dream
                                                another DAY has gone...


                                               You are not going to be mine
                                                this is what my destiny holds
                                                but an unknown feeling keeps
                                                all my hopes alive
                                                I never want to know
                                                that won't be fulfilled
                                                and then
                                                giving me a lovely reason to live again
                                                another DAY has gone...

WHEN I SAW A SMILE.........crying..!!!






                                                              Tears were frozen,
                                                         
                                         so what..?? if it was hell or heaven,
                                
                                             all my senses started flying,
                                            when I saw a smile... CRYING.
                                                  

                                                    I was amazed,
                                         
                                          all the imaginations were caged,
                                                
                                           my hopes were brutally dying, 
                                           when I saw a smile...CRYING..


                                         a killing silence was all around,


                                             time was the only healer 
                                                   for this wound,


                                       my dreamy castles were destroying,
                                        when I saw a smile... CRYING...


                                                    I was in a trance,

                                              only shattered images were 
                                                      at my glance,

                                           every emotion was classifying,
                                           when I saw a smile...CRYING....      


                                           The roads were getting tougher,


                                                    I was there only
                                                      one to suffer,


                                           whole world instructed me
                                              but,I kept on defying,
                                         when I saw a smile...CRYING.....
