ye wo sach hain jo sabko pata hain....

ye wo sach hain jo sabko pata hain....
ke shaam ki laali ke bad raat ka andhera aata hai,
aur kuch sach hain jo lapata hain...
ke shaam ki laali mein aksar ek parinda sooraj ke laal goley pe tang jaata hai,
aur raat ka andhera khwaabon ki roshni laata hai.
ye wo sach hain jo sabko pata hain....
ke agar bhook bhi mit jaye to pyaas nahin mit paati hai,
aur kuch sach hain jo lapata hain,
ke hatheliyon mein sama jaye to pyaas mita deta hai,
aur aasman se baras jaye to pyaas jaga deta hai...
ye wo sach hain jo sabko pata hain,
ke zindagi ek din maut mein badal jaati hai,
aur kuch sach hain jo lapata hain...
ke maut wo nahin jo akhir mein aati hai...

tigdam

Zindagi ka har din
Ek guzre kal ki parchayi hai
Upar waley ne waqt aur usmein ghulti yaadon ki
kuch aisi tigdam bhidayi hai,
aaj gali se guzarte dekha tumhe,
kisi aur ke sath…
din mein guzre hazaar lamho ki tarah
ye lamha bhi ghaseet ke kahin peechey legaya.
ke wo bhi ek din tha
jab meri chat se teri chat dikhti thi
aur ye bhi ek din hai …
na ishq, na dard, na ruswayi hai…

laal peela

Jab main car ki khidki se bahar dekhti hun, to dekhti hun...
chaar pahad bhaage ja rahe hain,
shaam ki palkein wadi pe dhakne lagi hain,,,
sooraj baba bhi pair ghaseet te hue aasman se zameen pe arahe hain,
nadi ka shor bhi sath sath chal raha hai,,
aur kahin door pahad ki choti pe safeyd chadar bichi hai,,,
aisa lag raha tha maano waqt ke sath sab chalte chalte bhaage, lekin maine dekha...
jaaney kahan se kathayi pahadon ke aagey,
jhulsa hua
laal
peela
chinar khada tha...

I have to say...

The sky in the lake is grey,
It’s such a beautiful day...
It breaks my heart, I have to say.

Wisps of vapour from my lips escape,
I feel alive as the stupor takes...
And makes the sky in the lake grey,
It’s such a beautiful day...
It breaks my heart, I have to say.

My eyes are still like memory,
As the cold wind tugs on my scarf,
And blows it to the sky in the lake all grey,
It’s such a beautiful day...
It breaks my heart, I have to say.

laanat

25 diye ek ek karke jalaye humne,
Ek diya naam ka khushi ke jalte hue honthon se bola
Chahe jis lamhe se hasi mango,
Tumhe zindagi jeeney ki azaadi hai...
ek diya naam ka sawal ke bujhta hi nahin...
Pet khali hai mera jeb meri khali hai...
chalo doosri tarah se karti hun kaifi sahib ke alfaazon ka balatkaar,
25 diye ek ek karke bujhaye maine,
ek diya naam ka waqt ke sulagte hue honthon se bola,
laanat hai Saba rehman Laanat...

kavita

Tum ek kavi ho main jaanti hun,
udaasi tumhari kavita hai,
ab itne saal hogaye hamein bichdey hue...
kabhi to mujhe sochke udaas hue honge,
kabhi to us udaasi ho shabdon mein dhaala hoga,,,
bas wahi chaar panktiyaan tumhara mera rishta hain...
bas unhi chaar panktiyon ke mel keliye main tumse bichdi thi,
bas wahi chaar panktiyaan tumne mujhe kabhi sunayi nahin...
bas wahi chaar panktiyaan ho sake to kabhi suna dena,,,
ke mujhko udaasi aur udaasi ko tumne kavita bana diya,,,
par ye kya, tumhare sath bhi in chaar panktiyon ne wahi kiya....

lonliness

The green mould is rising,
higher and higher
on the soft cream bread



On a vast page
the single word
waits for another...


Loneliness is a shapeless, faceless monster
Eating in to the wet sand of the earth,
Though the ocean tries,
But with each wave it's fingers slip
And it leaves the earth damp.
Foaming on the edges of the earth,
Is the shape of loneliness.



Loneliness is the blue in the flames,
You can fill the fire with hopes and anger,
You can fill the fire with all the trash in the world,
You can fill the fire with sighs and words,
But it all burns, in to the blue flames,
Through the smoke you see,
The colour of loneliness.



Loneliness is a gluttonous man,
His skin about to burst.
You can feed the man cherries and peaches,
You can feed the man thought and wisdom,
You can feed the man time and sense,
And hope that he bursts.
But his body digests and he shits.
Slowly mixing with the air
is the stench of loneliness.


Loneliness is a body,
Writhe ring with desire,
You can touch it with your soft hands,
Or caress it with your rough tongue,
You can glide over it
And shudder with it's pleasure,
But the body unfolds and reveals a soul.
Dazzling your senses is the extent of loneliness.

sasti khushi

kehne keliye kuch nahin,
kya kahun....
kuch mehsoos nahin kiya,
kya likhun...
na dard hai mujhe...dil ka,
na kuch khoya hai maine....zindagi mein,
ek raasta, ek raftar, ek lamba thaka hua, bekar safar...
na aadi tedi laino se bigadti hai,
na rangon se sawarti hai,
bas ek parat pe dusri chadhti jaati hai,
main bhaagta hun,
chupta hun,
ye door baithke muskurati hai...

meri zindagi hai ek sasti khushi,
jispe ab hasi nahin aati hai...

what am I?

What am i…Iam free like the wind…nay! Iam the wind ,


the waves,the warmth of the morning sun…


The beauty of the moonlight..,


the shine in the lovers eyes ,…in the call of a mate..


Iam the darkness of the deep colours


and the tenderness of the yellows…The iciness of the blue ocean….The soaking green of the sea…


Iam the cry of the baby,…just out of the womb…


Iam the stone rolling down the restless stream…,and iam the fish in the stomach of a whale…


Iam the space in the grains of the sand,iam the feather of a bird…


Iam a thought in the poets heart…


Free me of this body….let me break off its confines..let me not be human .Let me not be woman…


Let me be that bubble that rises and bursts mid air…suddenly…


Or tears that never leave the eyes…


I want to run In the waves and drop with the rain drops…I want to be bound in the roots of a small flower…


I want to be the dots on the butterfly and the veins on the leaves…





The unsung tunes of some broken strings…That I could be…why human do I have to be?

sun rise

You should go to my homeland,,
and see,,
how the sun rises,,
its wobbly...
by the way,,
you never told me how sad loving you could be,,
i feel like i am drowning all the time,,
and through the water i see you looking at me,,
But at this instance,,
the shadow of your house darkens on my wall
deeper and deeper as the sun goes up.
Here, there are 3 colors on your terrace,
competing to be seen,
and twisted iron bars,,
that look like people to me...

Mera din ab ek biyabaan gali hai

Mera din ab ek biyabaan gali hai

Ab koi idhar bhatakta nahin

Phisalta nahin , tapakta nahin,

Ab ispe anginat baelein lipti hain

Beylon mein chupa ek ghosla bhi hai

Jissey panchi ud chuke hain

Sard mausam hai yahan

Pichli garmiyon ke zang khaaye cooler pade hain

Ab sooraj yahan nikalta nahin

Pighalta nahin, masalta nahin.

Mitti ki partein jami hain

Cheetiyon ki kataarein thin kabhi

Unke  nishan mehfooz hain inmein

Ab hawa yahan chalti nahin

Khurachti nahin, ragadti nahin

Kuch purani deewarein hain

Sabse purani main daraarein hain

Ab Phool yahan khilte nahin

Dehakte nahin, sulagte nahin

Ye gali kisi gali se milti to hogi zarur

Chalti  hun kuch der aur

Kahin nikalti to hogi zarur

Chalte chalte pairon mein ulajh jaatey hain

Purane sadte hue kapdon ke chiithdey

Main pair patakhti rehti hun

Ab baarish yahan hoti nahin

Mehakti nahin, chayhakti nahin

Chalti hun kuch der aur

Kahin nikalti to hogi zarur

Ye gali kisi gali se milti to hogi zarur.

Aasman laal hai

Aasman laal hai

Zakhm hara hai

Ye jo parwaaz mein hain parinde

Gehri gehri  kharoch chodh jaatey hain

Main baadlon se dhakti hun riste hue khoon ko

baadal bhi bewafa hain

shaam tak baras jaatey hain

kuch lamhe gehrata hai andhera

kuch lamhe sukoon sa milta hai in siyyah galiyon mein

lekin phir kambakht taarey nikal aatey hain.

badi bewakoofi ki

Ghar ke peechey  ek chota sa bageecha tha

Ab wahan jungle hai

Beylon ka kaher hai

Sookhey patton ki dadagiri hai

Wahin kal dupaihri mein

Jab sooraj khada ghoor raha tha

Ek laash mili mujhe

Sad ti hui

Uski badboo kuch lamhon mein hi bardasht hone lagi

Main uske pas jaake baith gayi

Uske hath ko apne hath mein liya

Aur saara haal dil ka keh diya

Par lagta tha wo sun nahin rahi hai

Yun uska be murrawat hona bardasht nahin hua mujhe

Ek purani kulhadi toote hue darwaze se latki thi

Maine tukde tukde kardiye us laash ke

Badi bewakoofi ki

Pehle to bas ek laash thi

Ab kayi hissey hogaye uske

Kahan kahan dafnaati unko

Aise hi chorh wapas ghar agayi

Sooraj bhi khada ghoorta raha

Sach Bol

Mere hamdard mere saathi

Tu sach bol

Tu wo bol jo nazar aata hai tujhe

Mat udha apne alfaazon ko ek safeyd shaffaq chaadar

Mat duba apni awaz ko chaashni mein

Tu sach bol

Tu wo bol jo mehsus hota hai tujhe

Mat dar ke dil toot jayega mera

Mat ghabra ke toot jaunga main

Tu sach bol

Mere hamdard mere saathi

Aaina sab dekh lete hain

Seekh lete hain

Bade hojate hain

Hoshiyar hojate hain

Par jo aina dikhata hai

Usey kabhi maaf nahin kar paatey hain

Yahi sach hai. lo bol diya.
