Those, measuring the

vibrations and oscillations,

expansion and contraction

of the sea waves,

got perplexed as they

hit a roadblock

when they probed

deep into my mind…

 

The rise and fall of the

wave crests in my mind,

proved to be way beyond their

grasp and measurement…!

Reconciliation

थक  सा  गया हूँ  मैं ख़ुद    

से तकरार करते-करते,

अपने  आप  से  अब सुलह

करना  चाहता  हूँ  मैं..!

☆☆ 

I am done fighting

with myself…

Trying to make peace

with myself now…

☆☆☆☆☆

 ☆ Memories ☆  

गुजिश्ता यादों के पंख लगा के

उड़ता रहा तमाम ज़िंदगी,

तन्हाई से  यूंही इक परिंदा,

परवाज़ में ही फना हो गया…

☆☆

Whole life it kept flying with

the wings of past memories,

A bird just got perished in the

flight because of loneliness…!

☆☆☆☆☆

Silent Cacophony... ☆

खामोशीयों में कितना

ज़बरदस्त शोर होता है,

मैंने ये खुद को तन्हा कर

के महसूस किया है…!

☆☆

There happens to be an

eerie noise in the silence,

I have experienced it by

keeping myself aloof…!

☆☆☆☆☆

Life 

फिसलती ही चली गई

एक पल भी रुकी नहीं

अब जाके पता चला कि

रेत के मानिंद हैं ज़िंदगी…!

☆☆

Just kept slipping away,

didn’t stop for a moment

Now only I came to know

that life is like the sand…!

☆ – “Intoxication” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

See and smile there

sea of love holding

its boundaries here. 

 

Drink from my glass

as much as you want

but the whole you can’t. 

 

Dive in the waters

of this beautiful heart

you won’t drown in that. 

 

If you are red

it will be hell of wine

just flip the coin. 

 

if you are blue

it will be clear spirit

pick up your beat. 

 

If you are sad

it will be scotch

let it be your torch. 

 

If you are missing

it will be tequila shot

just be lost in that

 and

 if just being human

it will be a plain water

they call it tears.

Then one fine day I

simply convinced myself…!

may  not  be  possible, but…

Keeping the windows open is

☆ – “Prayer of Indulgent” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

 (Inspired from Hazrat Jalaluddin Rumi’s poem “Na man Behuda Girde”)

I whirl on your divine Tunes

I rest on illusion’s Dunes..

I drink the wine called Desire

I roam the alleys of Fire..

I laugh sometimes I Weep

I endure lash of love’s Whip..

I fall sometimes I Rise

I pray sometimes for Prize..

I am winner sometimes Sinner

I say the truth as your Lover..

I bought sometimes I Sold

I experience your market of Gold..

I indulged in your Kind

Why don’t you in my Mind?..

O God, Have mercy on me

For I am lost in chaos of you…

 ☆ Intriguing Messiah…

कैसे हमदर्द हो भला तुम,

किस तरह के मसीहा हो तुम…

दिलपे नश्तर भी लगते हो

तो मरहम के सुकून की तरह…!

 ☆  ☆

What type of solacer are you,

What kind of messiah are you…!

You pierce a lancet in the heart,

but like a soothing balm only…!!

 ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆

 ☆ False Pride… ☆

झूठी शान के परिंदे ही

ज्यादा फड़फड़ाते हैं,

बाज की उड़ान में कभी

आवाज़ नहीं होती है…!

 ☆  ☆

Only  the  birds  of  false

pride  flutter  more,

There’s never any sound

in  the  eagle’s  flight…

 ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆

 ☆ Spiritual Relationship… 

कुछ रिश्ते, तमाम रिश्तों से हसीं हुआ करते हैं

पर  उनके  नाम  नहीं  हुआ  करते…

वो  हर  रिश्तों  से  ज्यादा  खूबसूरत  होते  हैं

मगर सिर्फ रूह से ही महसूस किए जाते हैं…

 ☆  ☆

Some relations are better than any relations

But they may not  have any names…

They are more beautiful than any relations

But can only be felt through the soul..!

 ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆

Explosive Silence 

अगर लफ्जों में छुपा होता

है बेहिसाब असर…

तो  खामोशी में छुपा होता

है बेंतहा कहर…!

 ☆  ☆

If there is incalculable impact

hidden in th words…

Then the silence encompasses

an unparalleled devastation…!

☆ – “Body” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay 

Your prison lies

next to my prison

 

prison, whose bars are rusted

yet serving it’s purpose

and the walls are transparent

that are keeping me aspirant

 

Then I sing a song

glad you can hear it

though you don’t understand it

 

I think, I will not see you ever

but I have written something on them

as the walls will be forever

 

you will appreciate the word

when they will take me away

and you will be taken too

but the walls will be forever

and so do my words on them

 

but I have written

‘break me’ on them…

 ☆ Venerated Passage…

Just tread through my mind

with due reverence only…

My silence too has its own status

and charismatic panache…!

मेरी खामोशीयों का भी वहाँ

अपना ही एक रुतबा है…!

काँटा क्या चुभा पैर में

एक आस सी बांध गई…

कि कोई तो एक गुलाब

जरूर होगा इस गली में….!

 rekindled a ray a hope…

That atleast a rose must be

 there in this street…!

Doorstep of Fate 

हम भी खड़े थे कतार में,

तकदीर के दरवाजे पे…

लोग दौलत पर मारे, मगर हमने

आप जैसा दोस्त मांग लिया…!

Is too kept standing in the queue

at the allotment door of kismet

People yearned for the wealth

I craved for a friend like you….!

☆☆☆☆☆

Silent Echoes 

अब उसे आवाज देना

ही निहायत बेमानी है,

जिसे मेरी खामोशी की

गूंज सुनाई नहीं देती…!

Who’s unable to hear the

echo of my silence..!

Day is of White

Dark is the Night..

Both are Extremes

Simple is the Evening..

When the day burnouts

When You see it Clear

Then you know for Sure..

That White or Dark really doesn’t Matter

For both of them oppress the Colour….
