Lost & Found...

Ek dost kya hai samjha,
Teri dosti paa kar,
Dard kya hai jaana,
Tera saath kho kar!

Checkpoint...

Zindagi ke aise ek maud pe aa gaya,
Jahan sabne mera saath chod diya,
Is tanhayi mein main itna doob gaya,
Ki maine sahara doondna bhi chod diya...

All I want is a friend...

Doonda nahi kabhi ek saathi ko,
Paana nahi chaha kisi ke pyaar ko,
Jaroorat thi to sirf ek dost ki,
Jo door kar sake is tanhayi ko...

My Companions...

Lehron ke aksar aane jaane par bhi,
Ye kinara akelepan mein dooba hua hai,
Lakhon taaron ke hone par bhi,
Ye chaand tanhayi se ghera hua hai,
Charan taraf roshini hote hui bhi,
Ye zindagi andhere mein khoyi hui hai,
Itne saare logon ke beech rehte hue bhi,
Main rehta hoon wo chaand aur kinaren jaise hi…

Kabhi na...

Kabhi na jaana,
Ki aisa bhi koi dost ban sakta hai,
Kabhi na maana,
Ki koi itna paas bhi aa sakta hai,
Kabhi na samjha
Ki ek dost bhi itna khaas ho sakta hai,
Kabhi na socha,
ki us dosti ke tootne par itna dard bhi ho sakta hai…

Will you seize the moment?

Kabhi aata hai zindagi mein aisa bhi ek pal,
Jab tumare ek galati se mil sakti ho kushi,
Ek pal jisme tum ji sakte ho poori zindagi,
Us pal mein ho saken tumara sapna sach,
Aisa pal jo tumare intezaar ka jawab ho,
Tumara barson ke kwaab ho,
Par us galati se is pal ko zindagi bar pachtaoge,
Ye jaanke bhi kya tum us galati ko kar paaoge?

Lost... Myself...

Itni badi bheed mein,
Kaise main doondh paaunga,
Itne saare logon ke beech,
Kaise main pehchaan paaunga,
Itne shor sharabe mein,
Kaise sunn paaunga,
Apne aap ko… Apne dil ki awaaz ko…

Kuch Kwaab...

Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo apne poori zindagi ko badal sakte hain,
Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo apne zindagi ko kushiyon se bhar sakte hain,
Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo hume apne aap se pehchaan dilate hain,
Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo hume hi badal dete hain,
Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jinke tootne ke darr se hum kuch nahi kar paate,
Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo hume aur bhi kwaab dikhate hain,
Kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo kabhi poori nahi hote hain,
Aur kuch kwaab aise hote hain,
Jo kwaab rehkar hi achayi karte hain…

Sometimes...

Kabhi kabhi kisi se jhoot bolna padta hai,
Kisi ki khushi cheenni padti hai,
Kisi ka dil thodna padta hai,
Khudke chahton ko bhoolna padta hai,
Apne kwaabon ko bhi maarna padta hai,
Kyun ki, kuch achcha karne ke liye,
Kabhi kabhi, kuch bhura bhi karna padta hai…

All it takes is just one action...

Ek boondh paani,
Sagar ko bhar sakta hai,
Ek choti khadam,
Manzil paas la sakti hai,
Ek halki muskaan,
Ek pal ko badal sakti hai,
Ek khuli hasi,
Maahol badal sakti hai,
Ek choti si aansu,
Kahin baatein samjha sakti hai,
Ek pyar bhara shabd,
Dil ko badal sakta hai,
Ek choti si madat,
Zindagi badal sakti hai,
Ek choti soch,
Poori duniya badal sakti hai…

Waiting...

Mere zindagi ke pannon ko uske liye bachake rakha hai,
Dono ke saath hone ke kwaab sajake rakha hai,
In palkon mein sundar sa ek sapna chupake rakha hai,
Dil mein mere, ek mahal banake rakha hai,
Is intezaar ki ghadi na jaane kab khatam hogi,
Us mahal ki rani na jaane kab mujhe milegi,
Un sapnon ko haqeqat mein na jaane kaun badlegi,
Mere zindagi ka hissa na jaane kab koi banegi…

Alone...

Your leaving has left within me emptiness,
A void, a vacuum, a feeling of loneliness.
Try as I might to fill this hole,
To be normal, to be whole,
Blamed someone else for not being true,
Hoping that they could somehow replace you,
I was searching for something that wasn’t there,
Trying to make something that could compare,
Everything I did was out of despair,
Coz I couldn’t bear my pain or hold back my tear,
I wish whatever happened could be undone,
Coz your place within me can be taken by none…

Deafening Silence...

Is sannathe mein itna shor hai,
Ke dil ki cheekh ko bhi dooba saken,
Teri is khamoshi mein itna zor hai,
Kisi veer ke bhi dil ko thod saken,
Na jaane tume chup rehna kyun manzoor hai,
Isse hue dard ko tum nahi dekh sake,
Ise sehane ke liye dil mera kamzor hai,
Kaash is baat ko tum samaj sake…

Mixed One...

Dil to mera tootha hai,
Isme koi shakh hi nahi,
Rone ka wajah poochte ho,
As if tume miss karne ka hukh hi nai,
Tumare saath waqt guzaarna chahta hoon,
Par iskeliye mera luck hi nahi,
Chahta hoon ki tum samjho is care ko,
Kyunki dosti sirf zubaanse kehne tak hi nahi!

No Use...

Khabar na lena ka matlab,
Fikra hi poori tarah se chodna nahi…
Bas hum jaan gayen hain ye baat,
Ki fikra dikhane ka koi faida nahi!

The truth...

Naan kirukum kavithaigalai,
Anubhavaithu ezhuthuvadhuillai,
Athanal athil irukum aazhathai,
Naane pala nerum arivathillai…

My first attempt in Tamil...

Imaigalin intha velaiyatu,
Kangalake theriyavillai,
Manasaku intha porattam,
Kadhal endru puriyavillai!

Kya hua?

Aaj phir us akelepan ka ehsaas hua,
Tere saath na hone ka aabhaas hua,
Purane yaadonse dil behaalsa hua,
Par abhi tak samaj na paaya ki kya hua...

Fight...

Tumari is khamoshi ko seh nahi sakta,
Tumari ruswayi ko bardash nahi kar sakta,
Tumpe gussa karke rooth nahi sakta,
Kyunki tumse baat kiye bina reh nahi sakta…

Not Possible...

In aankhom mein bina khoyen,
Koi bachch nahi sakta,
Is hasi se dil na ruken,
Itna kaabo ho nahi sakta,
Is khubsurati ko na pehchaane,
Itna andha koi ho nahi sakta,
Tume jaanke tumse pyaar na Karen,
Aise to ho hi nahi sakta!

Kaminepan...

Pehli baar pyaar kiya,
Humko mila dokha,
Doosri baar pyaar kiya,
Tab bhi mila dokha,
Teesri baar pyar kiya,
To phirse paaya sirf dokha…
Dokhe ke alawa kuch nahi hai dekha,
Phir bhi humne kuch nahi hai seekha…

Ye teri...

Ye teri aankhen hain ya koi sagar,
Jisme hum itna doobh rahe hain,
Ye teri baatein hain ya koi gaana,
Jo humare dil pe itna cha raha hai,
Ye teri hasi hai ya jagmagata koi taara,
Jiski har chamk muje heiran karti hai,
Ye teri bachhpana hai ya mera pagalpan,
Jo mujhe teri aur keech raha hai…

Will anyone understand the true me?

Everyone likes me in an instant,
But want to keep me very distant.
People enjoy spending time with me,
But alone no one gives me company.
I am known as a friend to all,
But as my own, there is no one to call.
I am considered just a touch & go,
Coz, of my feelings I don’t make a show.
But what is really hurtful to see,
Is even my close ones don’t understand the true me!

"Stranger" than I thought...

Jinko maine apna maana,
Unke liye to main paraya tha,
Jinko apna khaas samjha,
Unko main koi teesra tha…

Dying for a YES!

Jaan bhi apna kushi se de deta,
Zaroorat hai, to sirf teri ek ishaare ki,
Poori duniya se dushmani modh leta,
Intezaar hai, to sirf teri ek haan ki…

Kaise batayen...

Tumse bahut baatein ki,
Par ikrar nahi kar paya,
Tum to the itne kareeb,
Par apne chahut ka ehsaas nahi dila paya…

Bas, aise hi :P

Itne din se kehte gaye,
Ki pyaar hai sirf ek bakwaas,
Par jabse tumse mil gaye,
Hua pyaar ka asli ehasaas…

Short-sightedness...

Itne baatein karne par bhi,
Mere jasbaatoon ko na samajh paaye,
Itne paas rehthe hue bhi,
Mere chahut ko na pehchaan paaye…

Doonte reh gaya..

Zindagi ke safar mein,
Ek sahara doonte reh gaya,
Tumare saath rehte hue bhi,
Ek pyaar doonte reh gaya…

Samjho mujhe...

Itne baaton ke beech,
Mere dil ki awaaz na sunn paye,
Itne takararon ke peeche,
Us pyaar ko samajh na paye!

Kuch nahi kar sakta...

Tumse itna jagadne par bhi,
Tumse nafrat nahi kar sakta,
Tume itna chahne par bhi,
Tumse pyaar nahi kar sakta..

Kuch log aise bhi hain...

Chahut aur pyaar ke beech, hai halki si ek rekha,
Chahut aur pyaar ke beech, hai halki si ek rekha,
Par is rekha ko humne, Kabhi nahi hai dekha…

Samjho.. Khudko...

Khudko mere nazaronse dekho,
Apne khubsoorati ka ehsaas ho jayega,
Khudko mere dil ki ankhonse samjho,
Tume apne aap se pyaar ho jayega…

Betaabi...

Dil mein thi halki se ek bechaini,
Wajah jaanne ki thi badi betaabi,
Socha the kisine kiya hai jadoo,
Phir samjha ki kaaran hai… sirf tu…

Never Realizing...

Jinke liye kiya humne itna kuch,
Unko uski khadar na thi,
Jinpe tha hume itna pyaar,
Unko uski khabar na thi…

Only you...

Cha gaye tum mujhpe kuch is tarah,
Ki koi aur dikhayi nahi deta…
Dil ko lubhaya hai kuch is tarah,
Ki kisi aur ka ehasaas nahi hota…

Na jaane...

Na jaane humne kya kiya,
Ki humne tumko paaya…
Na jaane tumne kya kiya,
Ki humne khudko khoya…

What did you do to me?

Every time I see you,
My heart gives a little flutter,
Every time I am with you,
I can’t help but stutter,
Is it something you do,
Or is it the way you move,
Is it a dream or is it true,
I really have no clue…
Maybe it’s just the way you smile,
That makes my heart stop a while,
Maybe it’s just the look in your eyes,
That drowns me in their sparkling abyss,
Something about the way you are,
Makes me think you are the brightest star,
Something about you makes me feel good,
What it could be, I never really understood.
No matter how much I try to disguise,
These thoughts of mine are like silent cries,
But is there any way to make you realize,
That what I say is true, not simply lies?

Passing Time...

Pata hi nahi chala,
Ye din kaise nikal gaya,
Dekhte hi dekthe yunhi,
Ek poora hafta nikal gaya,
Na jaane isi tarah,
Kitne mahine nikal gaye,
Kaam aur aaram ke peeche,
Poori zindagi nikal gayi…

A colleague who moved out...

I know you now for more than a year,
A friend who has become quite dear,
But now that you will no longer be near,
I can’t help but shed a tear…
No matter where you steer,
There is nothing really to fear,
Coz we are always right here,
To give you support and cheer…
So get into high gear,
And fly far like a spear,
With all the wishes sincere,
All the best for your career!

Bewafaa Dil...

Ye ladkadate hue kadham mere,

Na jaane kiske aur le jaate hain,

Ye aansoo behte aankhein meri,

Na jaane kiske liye rote hain,

Yaadon se bhara mann bhi mera,

Na jaane kiske soch mein khoya rehta hai,

Mera dil bhi kitna bewafa nikla,

Rehke mere seene mein, dadhakta kisi aur ke liye…

Dosti ya...

Bahut se logon ke hone par bhi,

Ye aankhein tume doonte rahen,

Bahut se kaam rehte hue bhi,

Hum teri yaad mein doobe rahe,

Samjha tha tume sirf ek dost,

Na jaane kab tum khaas hue,

Baaton baton mein yunhi,

Dil ke itne paas hue…

Woh...

Maine kabhi na itna hasa,

Us kushi ki wajah woh thi,

Maine kabhi na itna roya,

Dil todne wali bhi wohi thi!

Sis...

When I was a lone ranger,

You met me as a stranger.

You started out as my colleague,

But became a frnd of a different league,

Now u r no longer near,

And I wish you were here,

Coz I cant help but miss,

My sweet little sis…

Thanks???

Shukriya kehke hume paraya mat karo,

Ise madat nahi, dosti ka nishani maana karo,

Jab bhi zaroorat pade, bus yaad kiya karo,

Par agli baar ‘pls’ nahi, bas kaho “Ye karo”!
