War..

Every leader says they don't want a war,

And yet every minute, someone dies, not knowing what for!

Region, religion, boundaries and race,

What a petty reason to fight, what a big disgrace!

People are in their homes, with no fear, no care,

Going on with their lives, with no time to spare..

While soldiers are fighting, for a cause they believe,

On Thanksgiving, Christmas and even new year's eve..

Whose idea was it, to open the floodgate?

To unleash destruction and show off our hate?

When did it become ok to kill one another,

Just coz our opinion is different from the other..

How can we stop this fight to see who's right?

How can we stop from proving each other's might?

If you are right, why do I have to be wrong?

Why can't we just learn to get along?

A war maybe won and a winner decided,

But the joy of victory would be misguided,

For a war does not decide who is better or who is deft,

A war does not decide who is right, only who is left...

You don't know what it's like...

You don't know what it's like...

To always be so optimistic,
When your whole life is in shambles..

You don't know what it's like...

To be someone else's sunshine,
When you yourself are in total darkness...

You don't know what it's like...

To be there for someone every time,
but you are all alone all the time...

You don't know what it's like...

To be the reason for someone's smile,
When your own laughter sounds hollow...

You don't know what it's like...

To help someone in need,
When you yourself could do with a helping hand..

You don't know what it's like...

To be so loving towards everyone,
When you yourself are loved so less...

You don't know what it's like...

For me, to be me..

kya karun.. main kya karun..

Jo bhi mujhe achche lagen, Unhe main achcha nahi lagta,
Jinhe bhi kahun apni dil ki baat, Unhe wo sachcha nahi lagta...
Pyaar karke kya faida, jab unhe wo pata hi nahi,
Karun to bhi kya karun, Kuch samajh aata hi nahi...

What do you do?

What do you do when you love someone so much,
But to them you don't really mean anything as such?

What do you do when loving someone makes you sore,
But all you want to do is love them even more?

What do you do when the love has given you nothing but pain,
But all you want to do is drench in it's rain?

What do you do when everything feels wrong,
But you can't do anything, but go along?

What do you do when you know it's not meant to be,
But your heart and soul would just not agree?

What do you do when you know you have lost,
But you want to win back, no matter what the cost?

What do you do when no matter how much you fight,
You know things would never be alright?

What do you do when the only person who mattered,
Is the person who broke your heart and left it shattered?

Why Oh Why Oh Why...

What is it you do,
that I keep coming back to you?

Why is it so hard,
to keep up my guard?

Why does your sight make my heart stop,
and then make it spin like a top?

Why can't you be mine,
And make it all fine?

Sometimes, the question is not why.. It's why not..

What did I get by loving you the way I did?
What was the point of keeping my feelings well hid?

why did I do it when I knew it would remain unsaid?
even when the weight of it, crushed me like lead?

Why did I let myself fall for you?
Knowing very well that you would never have a clue?

These are question I keep asking myself..
maybe having loved someone is enough in itself..

Culprit

Na samajh paaye ho tum mujhko,
Na samjhe ho mere pyaar ko,
Is baat ka main dosh doon tumko,
ya ghunhegar maanun apne aapko?

Let's fix things...

Baatein to tumse karni hai kahi,
Darta hoon ki keh na paaunga sahi...

Jaanta hoon teri isme galati nahi hai,
Par choth to bahut mujhe hi lagi hai...

Chahta hoon ki tum bhi samjho mujhko,
Kyun ki chod nahi sakta aiven hi tujhko...

Meri zaroorat to sirf teri hi khushi hai,
Wo khushi, jisme mera bhi koi hissa hai..

Sab se peeche hum khaden..

Your past may haunt you, you may not be in peace,
but I won't try to wipe out your old memories..
You might end up comparing with what you had,
but I promise I won't let it make me sad..
Thoughts of him might linger at the back of your mind,
but u won't regret choosing me, I won't leave you behind..
I won't claim to love you more..
But my love will be true, that's for sure..
Regain ur faith in love and romance,
Go ahead and give us a chance..

Incomplete...

The less I try to think of you,
The more I end up missing you..
The more I try to get over you,
The more I fall in love with you..

You are fun, quirky and claim to be dark,
but with no one else i can feel this spark,
Your eyes, your smile and talks so fine,
I wish as you are, you wud be mine..

The one..

I was the one who wiped your tears,
I was the one who swept away your fears...
I was the one who stood by you..
I was the one who stayed true..

I was your support, I was your pillar,
When your life felt empty, I was the filler..
I was the one who supported your decisions,
Even when these decisions went through numerous revisions..

I was the one who loved you so much,
Loved you to the extent, you'd never known such..
But one fine day, when you could finally move on,
I was nowhere in your mind, from your thoughts I was gone..

I was the one who completely understood you,
But you chose someone else, someone you barely knew..
All I could do, was stand by and see,
See you fall for him, fall for him rather than me..

Why couldn't you see that I loved you to the core?
Why couldn't you see that I would have loved you more??
He wasn't wrong for you, but he was a complete mess,
Yet, you were happy with him, happy for less..

And that's when it struck me - I knew what I had to do,
I would remain the friend - the friend who helped you through..
And so I killed the love, the love I had for you,
Just to see you happy, happy without a clue..

Simpler to say...

Try as I might to keep such thoughts at bay,
I can't help but feel that we are moving away,
I know you are busy & so I should be okay,
but we rarely meet or talk, be it weekend or weekday..

I am afraid you don't need me anymore,
Just thinking that makes me feel all sore,
Not that you were totally dependent till the core,
But I wish things would be as they were before..

A time when you used to tell me all your things,
from office to home & even all your flings,
A time when we used to do a lot of talking,
A time when we did a lil bit of walking..

We work in the same place,
But don't even meet face to face,
we live so close to each other,
But we don't even see one another..

I miss all those wonderful times that we spent,
I keep wondering where it all went,
I miss your I-don't-care attitude that was so untrue,
I even miss your crankiness & the NOs that you threw..

Maybe it's simpler to say - I miss you..

Yaadein..

Tere yaadon ke sahare,
har din thoda jee leta hoon main,
Unhi yaadon ke wajah se,
har din thoda aur marr jaata hoon main..

What do you do when what is right, feels wrong?

Na teri aane ki khabar hai mujhko, Na teri jaane ki..
Na khabar hai kya ho raha hai teri zindagi mein..
Na saath waqt guzaar paate hain hum,
Na waqt guzaarne ka mauka dete ho tum..

kya main bhura maanun ki tunmare paas waqt nahi mere liye,
Ya is baat ka ki tumko jo waqt milta hai, usme main yaad nahi aata?
Samajhta hoon ye waqt kisi aur ko dena zaroori hai,
Par kya us waqt ka ek hiss apne liye maangna itni bhuri hai?

Dil kehta hai kuch galat ho raha hai,
Dimag kehta hai, yehi sahi ho raha hai,
Dil aur dimag ke is jagde ke beech,
Dil bhi kahin jaanta hai ki dimag hi sahi hai..

Once in a blue moon..

I really wish it would come soon,
The call that you make once in a blue moon,
Try as I might to act that I don't care,
I soon find myself giving my mobile the stare...

Waiting impatiently, fidgeting about,
Knowing you'll call but still having a doubt,
Not wanting to be the person who sticks too much,
But not knowing what else I can do as such..


Wanting to know how are things going,
Wanting to hear everything that you are doing,
Praying and wishing that you'd call soon,
The call that you make once in a blue moon...

I Wish...

When I see you upset, when I see you cry,
Before I could think, to ask the reason why,
My hands reach up, reach up to dry,
To wipe away the tears, the tears from your eye..

Seeing you hurt, is a very painful sight,
Controlling my anger, takes all my might..
I want to hold you close and I want to hold you tight,
Till you stop crying and start to feel alright..

I have never wanted to be there for someone,
The way I want to be there for you..
But I know that's not how it's done,
I know it's not my place to do...

I know you have someone else to keep you strong,
but if I too want to be there, is it so wrong?
I wish you needed me, the way you used to,
I wish you needed me, the way I need you..

Angel...

We were always so near but never knew each other,
We had never talked before or did not even bother..
Considering the short time, in which our friendship grew,
The comfort that we share, no one can outdo..

No matter how much, you manage to annoy,
You are the true reason, for my laughter and joy..
I keep looking for excuses, to spend time with you,
Coz I can be myself, only when I am with you..

I don’t have to think or put words to weigh,
Coz you wont judge me, by just what I say..
No need to lie, no reason to hide,
Coz no matter what, you'll be on my side..

No matter how wrong what I say can be taken,
Your faith in my good side has always remained unshaken..
I may think a thousand thoughts and finally come to one,
But you know where my mind roamed and explanations I have to give none..

We have told things to each other, that no one else has known,
The love and affection you showered on me, to no one else you've shown.
You were my angel, who took care of me,
Doing what was right, even against my plea..

Then without a single word, without even a fight,
You chose to change, change overnight..
You always thought I knew why you had to go,
But I never felt the reason was strong enough though..

All that remains are just memories of yesteryears,
Thinking of them, fills my eyes with tears..
I still do wonder, what did go wrong?
How did we break, this friendship so strong?

I have repeated our conversations, a million times in my head,
Trying hard to see, if you had said something that I misread..
I have searched for a reason, I have searched for a clue,
Something that explains what you put me through..

The more I think, the more I feel,
This pain you gave me, is never going to heal..
After all these years, I am still ready to wait,
Just to know, what changed the love to hate..

Farishte...

Jab tum dukhi ho,
          Ye ghum mein sahara bann ke aate hain...
Jab tum khush ho,
          Ye khushi ke jashn manane aate hain...
Jab tum akele ho,
          Ye tumari tanhayi ko bhoolane aate hain...
Jab tum kisi ke saath ho,
          Ye us pal ko aur yaadgaar banane aate hain...

Har kisi ke dil ko,
          Inhone kabhi to chua hai...
Har kisi ke zindagi ke,
          Ye kabhi to hissa bane hain,
Jisko jo zaroorat ho...
          Us roop mein aa baraste hain,
Ye sirf baarish ki boondhen nahi...
          Khuda ke bheje farishte hain...

Adhoori baatein..

Jitni ye teri khamoshi badti hai,
Utni hi teri baatein yaad aati hain,
Jitni tu mujhse door jaati hai,
Utni hi teri yaadein mujhe sathathi hain..

Har din saath raha karte the,
Ab bas yaadein reh gayi,
Cheezen hazaron kehni thi tumse,
Ab wo sab baatein reh gayi..

Har din tujhe betaabi se doondha hai,
Har pal teri yaad mein roya hai,
Kaash tumse ek baar main mil paata,
Ab tak jo kaha na, woh sab keh paata...

Maybe its just me..

Whenever I see you, gloomy and sad,
Something inside me breaks and I go mad,
I don’t know what happens, I don’t know why,
I want to hurt the person, who made you cry..

I know you don’t need me, I know you ll be fine,
But I feel the need to protect you, even if you're not mine..
You seek the same from someone else, you don’t need me there,
But I cant stand by doing nothing, I cant stop my care..

Every time I offer my support, you just say "no, thank you",
I wish you knew what it does to me, I wish there was someway you knew..
But no matter how much you push me away, I ll always be there for you..
Coz the bond that ties me down to you, is something strong and true..

Its hard to explain why I am like this, when it comes to you,
I have searched for a reason, searched for a meaning & even searched a clue..
Maybe I feel there's something I should do, Maybe I feel you need me,
But the more and more I think about it, the more I start to see - Maybe it isn't you that needs me, maybe its just me..

I hate myself..

I hate myself, for not fighting when you left.

I hate myself, for letting you go.

I hate myself, for not saying anything.

I hate myself, for what I have become.

I hate myself, for wanting to hate you.

I hate myself more, for not being able to hate you.

I hate myself the most, for still wanting to be with you.

But why I really hate myself, is coz I know you hate me too..

What happened?

Whenever I am down and need a little pull,
I look for you, with expectations full..
But I can't help, but get hurt when I see,
That you are not there, you are not there for me..

When I am all alone and need someone the most,
You will be there for me, is what I used to boast..
But you are no longer there at the time of my need,
Why can't you feel my pain or see my heart bleed?

I was a fool to think you ll abandon me never,
But how was I to know that things would change forever..
That the friendship we built over the past years,
Would end up being the reason for all my tears..

I know you care for me, deep within your heart,
And I wish there was some way to have a brand new start..
But we have managed to go apart, so farther away,
It doesn't really feel fair, to show my dismay..

It's hard to imagine we were best friends once,
But all that's left is some kind of acquaintance..
I wish there was some way, to turn back time,
When the joy of our friendship was a reason to rhyme..

But seeing how you are moving away, everyday a little more,
I really want to hate you from deep within my core,
But I could never do that, no matter what you do,
And so I hate myself, for what you put me through..

I'll be there for you..

Like all the things involving the heart,
You just drown in the happiness, right from the start,
And you get a jolt when you realize that it’s time to part,
Coz that’s when you feel something getting ripped apart..

When somebody you love leaves, you start to face your fears,
And all that’s left is the memories of yesteryears,
I wish I could just wipe away those tears,
Or at the least be there to lend some listening ears…

The love you had will always course through your vein,
And the memories will turn from blessings to bane,
But you will have to learn to move on with the pain,
Hoping that someday the memories will wane…

All I wanted to do was be there for you,
To stand by you so that you don’t feel so blue,
I started to see the things between us going askew,
But I really had no clue on what I could do..

Whenever I look at the pain in your eyes,
I wish I could say something really nice,
Something, that would make you realize,
That there is no use in breaking all the ties..

I know you wish for things to somehow get right,
Just believe in your love and put up a fight,
But when everything seems bleak and you are looking for a light,
Remember this friend just waiting out of sight..

Friends forever?

Kitni Ajeeb hai ye dosti humari,
ki itne paas hoke bhi itni door ho chuke hai..
har din saath rehne par bhi,
baat bhi nahi kar paate hain..

Ek doosre ke saath waqt guzaarte hain,
par ek doosre ke liye nahi..
ek doosre ko apna maante hain,
par wo apnapan hi raha nahi..

teri har raaz main jaana karta tha,
ab to teri koi khabar bhi nahi,
tere har dukh ka sahara tha,
ab to teri khushi ka bhi hissa nahi..

dost bante waqt na jaane kya socha tha,
ab na jaane kahan aa pahunche hain hum..
tera khaas dost hua karta tha,
ab to sirf ek pehchaan reh gaye hain hum..

The answer to why it's you...

The day I set my eyes upon you,
I knew my feelings were deep and true,
Every moment that I spend with you,
Is special, exciting and something new!

Seeing your face so sweet & bright,
Makes all my troubles feel alright,
So I long to see you - a glimpse or a passing sight,
And end up dreaming about you - day and night!

From your beautiful eyes that make a lovely pair,
To the sight of your hands combing your wet hair,
From the twinkling smile that you always wear,
To our laughs & talks that is oh so rare!

When you are sitting in front of me, all nice and sweet,
I can hardly make myself sit calmly in my seat,
Coz your mere presence makes my heart skip a beat,
There is no one else who can boast such a feat!

You are sweet, funny, interesting and clever,
I wonder if I will find someone like you, ever,
That's why I wish I could be with you forever,
Now.. here.. whenever.. wherever..

PyAr...

Dikhate ho ki tumko farak nahi padta hai,
par fikra to saara chehre pe hi nazar aa jaata hai..
pyaar hai magar poori aazadi hai kehte ho,
par kisi aur ke saath waqt guzaaren to undar hi undar jalte ho..

pyaar hai pata hai, dikhane ki koi zaroorat nahi,
phir bhi jab kabhi dikhta nahi, to dono rooth jaate ho sahi..
kehte ho ki har pal saath rehane ki chahat nahi,
par jab saath nahi ho to kuch aur soch paate nahi..

"pyaar to bahut hai sirf baatein thode kam hain" bolte ho,
phir bhi jab jagda karte ho to poori tarah se chup ho jaate ho..
Jaante ho pyaar ki buniyaad barose aur ehsaas dilane mein hi hai,
Phir bhi ek doosre se khulke pyaar karne se hichkichate ho..

Tumare pyaar pe poora barosa hai hume,
Kaash wahi barosa apne pyaar mein hota tume,
Tumari ye prem kahani jeet jaayegi poori,
Par uske liye ek doosre pe barosa hai zaroori..

Boss..

Bosses like you are hard to find,
Sometimes stern and sometimes kind,
Someone who pushes the body and mind,
Yet ensures fun and work are combined.
So on this special and wonderful day,
I am sending this beautiful wish your way,
Hope you get happiness and success everyday,
Wishing you the best and a very Happy Birthday!

Yaad kaise karun...

Chahta hoon tumare saath aur waqt guzaarun,
Par tume mujhse milne ka fursat nahi milta,
Tum chahte ho ki har pal tume yaad karta rahun,
Par tume bhulna ka mujhe mauka nahi milta...

If only...

If only you could see,
What you mean to me...
If only you knew,
All the things I'd do for you...
If only I could explain,
How much it really pains...
To do what it takes,
For a dear friend's sake...
To do what is must,
Just coz it feels just...
To hold back ur love and care,
Even when it feels unfair...
But I'll do this & more,
Without the slightest thought,
And I ll do all this,
Just because its you...

Har din, har pal...

Har din har pal teri yaad sathathi hai,
Na jaane tu itni yaad kyun aati hai...
Socha tha bhul jaaunga wo chan dinon ki dosti,
Par kaise bhul paaunga zindagi ke sabse hasin dosti...

Kaash tum dekh paate ke kitna akele ho gaya hoon,
Kaash tum samajhte ki kitna tume doondhta hoon,
Jab aaye the mere zindagi mein, to kuch le kar nahi aaye,
Par chodke jab chale, to sari khusiyan chura le gaye...

Ab batak raha hoon zindagi ke raahon mein tanha,
Khoj raha hoon kisi ko jo tumko bhula saken,
Khwahish to yahi hai ki tum laut aaoge abhi,
Par kaise dil ke samjhaun ki ye ho na paayega kabhi...

Someone...

For all the times I have been alone,
I wish I had someone to call my own,
To love, to care,
To always be there,
To be a part of my weakness,
To be source of my strengths,
Someone who is special among all my friends,
Someone with whom I can sit & have talks,
And sometimes go on silent long walks,
Someone to argue, someone who would disagree,
But when it comes to help, is always there for me..
Someone sweet, someone nice,
Whose presence adds a bit of spice...
Will I ever find that special someone?
That someone who answers all my needs?

A fresh start...

Dil pe koi bhoj hai, use halka karna chahta hoon,
Kahin unkahe dard hain, unhe mitana chahta hoon,
Chaaron taraf kohra hai, use hatana chahta hoon,
Jahan bhi dekhun andhere hai, roshni ki ek kiran chahta hoon,
Bandhe hue se lag raha hai, chootke nikalna chah raha hoon,
Ghutan si mehasoos ho rahi hai, aazad hona chah raha hoon,
Aaj kahin dino baad, phir se jeena chah raha hoon...

Alone in the crowd...

Aaj is bheed mein khudko akele paa raha hoon,
Itne doston ke saath hote bhi ek sahara doondh raha hoon,
Apnon ke beech rehke bhi paraya lag raha hai,
Aaj na jaane meri zindagi mein kyun ek kami lag rahi hai,
Ab sab se door koi tanhayi chah raha hoon,
Khudke saath guzaarne kuch waqt chah raha hoon,
Apne hi khayalon mein kho jaana chahta hoon,
Apne uljhe hue vicharon ko suljana chahta hoon...

My true friend...

Here I am standing, with my head held high,
Looking longingly at the vast blue sky,
Wishing for the Gods to hear my plea,
Waiting for the raindrops to pour on me...
To wash away the tears brimming my eyes,
Hoping the rain would give some disguise,
You have been my only true friend,
Always trying to bring my sorrows to an end,
Here I am standing, with my head held high,
Calling out to you and waiting your reply,
Rain rain, come again...
Come again, to wash my pain...

Baarish...

Aaj is baarish mein mujhe bheegne do,
Dil mein dabe dard ko thoda gulne do,
Mere aansuon ko barsaat mein behne do,
Aaj... mujhe khulke rone do...

Kaash...

Kaash tumko samja paata,
Ki tumari fikir kitna karta hoon,
Kaash tum dekh paate,
Ki tumare liye kitna rota hoon,
Kaash tume bata paata,
Ki kitna tume chahta hoon,
Kaash tum jaan paate,
Ki kitna is dosti ko manta hoon…

Dear Friend...

Hum to hamesha se hain tumare raazdar,
Par tum khoj rahe ho ek humdard kahin aur,
Samjte hain hum ki tumko uljan hai koi,
Maante hain ki tumko dard bhi hai kahin.
Inki ehsaas hone se hi hum bhi hain dukhi,
Kya tumko humari ye bedardi bilkul nahi dikhi?
Na jaane kya hua chan dino ke beech,
Humse kuch bhi kehne ka ab hai tumko koi hitchkich,
Darr hai ki aa gayi hai hum mein koi doori,
Achanak se lagta hai ki is dosti mein hai kuch adoori,
Samjo mere baat aur jasbaat ko poori,
Mujhe ye dosti hai bahut hi jyada pyari!

Beauty beyond imagination...

Hume fakr tha apne kaboo par,
Hume vishwaas tha apne dil par,
Phir tum aaye in nazron ke saamne.
Us khubsoorati ko labson se kaise bayyan karun,
Is madhoshi ko kaise main kaboo karun,
Ab dil ko kya dosh dena,
Tumare is husn ko dekhne ke baad,
Aaj to dil ka bhi ye bewafayi maaf hai!

Wont you give me a try?

Mujhse tumara ye dukh dekha nahi jaata,
Tere haseen aankhon mein aansu saha nahi jaata,
Shayad main teri wafa ka kaabil nahi,
Par mujhe aasmake dekho, main itna bhura bhi nahi

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..
