काश मिल जाये हमें भी

कोई किसी आईने की तरह

जो हँसे भी साथ साथ

और रोये भी साथ साथ…

☆☆

Wish I could also have

Someone like a mirror

Who could laugh together

And  even  cry together …

☆☆☆☆☆

उन्हें  ठहरे…

समुंदर  ने  डुबोया

जिन्हें  तूफ़ाँ  का…

अंदाज़ा  बहुत  था…

☆☆

Calm seas…

drowned them only…

Who claimed to have great 

experience of braving the storms

☆☆☆☆☆

तकलीफ खुद ही

कम हो गई…

जब अपनों से…

उम्मीद कम हो गई..

☆☆

The suffering itself got

conclusively reduced,

When expectations from

the loved ones minimized…

☆☆☆☆☆

पत्तों सी होती है कई रिश्तों

की उम्र, आज हरे कल सूखे….

क्यों  न  हम जड़ों  से  ही

उम्र भर रिश्ते निभाना सीखें…

☆☆

Age of many relationships is like

leaves; today green, tomorrow dried… 

Why don’t we learn from roots

To maintain the relationship …

खामोशियां बोल देती है

ज़िनकी बातें नहीं होती…

दोस्ती उनकी भी क़ायम है

ज़िनकी मुलाक़ातें नहीं होती…

☆☆

Silence converses with them 

who don’t talk to each other…

Friendship flourishes of those too,  

Who don’t  even get to meet…

☆☆☆☆☆

बेदाग़ रख महफूज़ रख

मैली न कर तू ज़िन्दगी…

मिलती नहीं इँसान को…

किरदार की चादर नई…

☆☆

Keep it spotless, keep it secure

Your life don’t you ever stain

For man does not receive again

A fresh mask for his character

☆☆☆☆☆

क्या कहना उनका जो हवाओं में 

सलीक़े से  ख़ुशबू घोल देते हैं 

फ़िज़ाएँ मुश्कबार हो जाती हैं   

फ़क़त जिनके खयाल से…

☆☆

What  to say about her who

infuses aroma in the winds

Whose thought alone turns

Whole environment fragrant

☆☆☆☆☆

बस इतना सा असर होगा

हमारी यादों का

कि कभी कभी तुम बिना

बात मुस्कुराओगे…

☆☆

The only effect of my

Memories will be that

Sometimes without any

Reason you will smile…!

चलो अब ख़ामोशियों

की गिरफ़्त में चलते हैं…

बातें गर ज़्यादा हुईं तो

जज़्बात खुल जायेंगे..!!

☆☆

Let’s get arrested now in

the regime of silence …

If we kept talking anymore

Emotions may get revealed…!!

☆☆☆☆☆

बादलों का गुनाह नहीं कि

वो  बेमौसम  बरस  गए!!

दिल  हलका  करने का

हक  तो  सबको हैं ना!!

☆☆

It’s not the crime of clouds

If they rained unseasonally!

After all everyone is entitled

To lighten burdened sorrows

☆☆☆☆☆

काश नासमझी में ही

बीत जाए ये ज़िन्दगी

समझदारी ने तो हमसे

बहुत कुछ छीन लिया…

☆☆

Wish  life could pass

In  imprudence only

Wiseness alone

did snatch a lot…

☆☆☆☆☆

दिल ना चाहे फिर भी यारो

मिलते जुलते रहा करो…

करो शिकायत गुस्से में ही

कुछ ना कुछ तो कहा करो…

☆☆

Heart may not desire still

Friends keep on meeting

Complain even in anger only

But at least say something…

गर यूँही घर में बैठा रहा

मार डालेगी तनहाइयाँ…

चल चलें मैखाने में जरा

ये फ़ना दिल बहल जायेगा…

☆☆

If I keep staying at home like this

The aloofness is going to  kill me

O’ dear  let’s  just  go to the bar…

This dying heart will come alive!

☆☆☆☆☆

इक किस्सा अधूरे इश्क़ का

आज भी है दरम्यान तेरे मेरे…

हैं मौजूद साहिलों की रेत पे

पैरों के कुछ निशान तेरे मेरे…

☆☆

A tale of inconclusive love still

exists between us, even today…

Few of our footprints are still

Present on the sand of shores…

☆☆☆☆☆

मरता तो कोई नही

किसी के प्यार में…

बस यादें कत्ल करती

रहती है किश्तों-किश्तों में…

☆☆

Nobody ever dies in

someone’s  love…

In installments just the

Memories  keep killing you…

☆☆☆☆☆

दीदार की तलब हो तो

नज़रें जमाये रखिये,

क्योंकि नक़ाब हो या नसीब, 

सरकता  तो  जरूर है…

☆☆

If urge of her glimpse is there

Then keep an eye on it patiently

Coz whether it’s the  mask or

luck , it moves for sure…

इस सफ़र में

नींद ऐसी खो गई

हम न सोए

रात थक कर सो गई …

☆☆

In this sojourn of life…

Lost sleep like this

Never could I sleep

Tired night only slept off…

☆☆☆☆☆

हर रोज़ ख़ुद पे ही बहुत…

हैरान बहुत होता हूँ मैं

कोई तो है मुझ में  जो…

बिल्कुल ही जुदा है मुझ से…!

☆☆

Everyday  I  keep  getting

too  surprised  on  myself…

There’s someone in me who’s

completely different from me…

☆☆☆☆☆

सारी उम्र गुजर गयी……

खुशियाँ बटोरते बटोरते

बाद में पता चला कि

खुश तो वो लोग थे जो खुशियाँ बाट रहे थे…

☆☆

Whole life passed away in

Picking up  the  happiness…

Only to find happy were those

Who kept sharing happiness..!

☆☆☆☆☆

कौन कहता है कि

दिल सिर्फ सीने में होता है…

तुमको लिखूँ तो

मेरी उँगलियाँ भी धड़कती हैं…

 ☆☆

Who says that

Heart is in chest only

My fingers also throb

When I write to you…!
