अधूरी कहानी पर ख़ामोश
लबों का पहरा है,
चोट रूह की है इसलिए
दर्द ज़रा गहरा है….🌺
☆☆
Guarded are the silent lips,
On the incomplete story…
Wound is of the soul, so
The pain is rather intense….

☆☆
Silent lips are the sentinels,
Of the unfulfilled fairytale…
Wound is of the spirited soul
So, the pain is rather intense….
☆☆☆☆☆
हंसते हुए चेहरों को गमों से
आजाद ना समझो साहिब,
मुस्कुराहट की पनाहों में भी
हजारों दर्द छुपे होते हैं…🌺
☆☆
O’ Dear, Don’t even consider that
Laughing faces are free of sorrow,
Thousands of pains are hidden
Even behind the walls of a smile…
☆☆☆☆☆
चुपचाप चल रहे थे
ज़िन्दगी के सफर में
तुम पर नज़र क्या पड़ी
बस गुमराह हो गए…
☆☆
Was walking peacefully
In the journey of the life
Just casting a glance on you
Made my journey go astray
