Parsu Ich!

Arz kiya hai:
Parsu ich main tumko mila
Parsu ich apan dawat ku gaye.

Response:
Kya parsu ich, parsu ich kar ra re?
Saal hora, kausi duniya mai reh ra re?

Arz kiya hai:
Salgirah tumhari tumhare ko mubharak
Sher pasand nahi aaya toh, darwaze se sarak.

Nowhere

There is no way but up

When you are on the bed of rocks
And time seems to stop
The entire world seems to weigh down on you
And you start to wonder, if it is just a dream

There is no way but up

When you have your legs on two boats
And you choose the one that's afloat
When you are battling the right from the wrong
Yet choose the wrong for the right never felt strong

There is no way but up

When your loved ones start to leave
And you find yourself all alone in the deep
When you lay down and thoughts won't leave
You try hard but just won't fall asleep

There is no way but up

When you look up and see the longest climb
It then dawns on you, it's about time
When you take the first step again
Let me tell you, from all this pain (you endure)

There is no way but up.
There is no way but up.
There is no way out but higher above. 

Mukammal Jahaan?

Gardish main phasi naav hai
Chingari se, sulagte ghaav hai

Raakh ban chuke hum hai
Phir kaise mukammal yeh jahaan hai?

------

Samundar ki lehro se harte
Dard se darte bhagte

Wajood humara khatm hai.
Phir kaise mukammal yeh jahaan hai?

Aazad

Sun dhyaan se, yeh kavita likhi hai bahut neend mai

Thoda uth ja pehle, yeh bol likhe hai bina kuch soch ke.

Par sun dhyaan se. Ok?

------

Pinjre ka panchi - aasman samjhe chath ko

Chaar diwari ko samjhe woh kainaat

Rheta woh sukoon se.

Aasman ka panchi, uski udaan ki koi seema nahi

Na koi sarhad ka woh mohtaaj hai 

Udta hai tu pankh phela ke.

-------

Dhyaan se sun na, ab punchline hai

Aaram se padna, mera yeh goodnight se pehle ka long message hai

Das, bees, tees, chalis yeh toh khaali number hai

Tu kush hain na, yeh hi tera answer hai.

Thoughts/Ramble

I am sacred.
Scared of everything I don't understand
Scared of experiences that have moulded me.

But does this fear hold true?
A fear of losing your stature
A fear of losing people you love
A fear that manifests into many more fears?

-----
We've all lost battles which were never ours to fight
We've all had our dreams shattered but did it end our lives?

We've all played victim and victor
We've taken it slower and faster.

We are nothing but a manifestation of our choices
We are nothing but a pot-pourri of our experiences

----------
Do you want to wither away petal by petal?
Or bloom and blossom spreading your fragrance far far away?

Are you a bird who is comfortable in an open cage?
Or a bird that will fly accepting challenge and opportunity coming it's way

Life is not about what you think you deserve
Life is not about being fair and that one prime purpose

Let life come to you for it is beautiful as is
Let life come to you for it's not under our control

----
I am scared, I have not ventured alone
I am scared, will I get the same love I was once shown?

I am scared for the silliest of the things
I am scared for my insecurities eat my peace

I am scared and in perpetual fear
But does it mean, I let go all that I hold dear?

-------
Time will fly and so will we
But we won't wait until it's too late for us to look back and see.

Sauda

Ungli pakad ke jab chalna sikhaya
Tujhe tab oocha kadhe rehna sikhaya

Gir ke jab tujhe uthna sikhaya
Tujhe tab udna sikhaya

Ghere samundar main dubki lagana sikhaya
Tujhe tab dar ko kaboo karna sikhaya

Kush rahene ki har woh kala sikhayi
Zindagi ko jeene ka tareeka sikhaya

Phir kyun kushi ka naam leke
Seekha sab bhoolne ho tum chale?

Kyun chand taaro ki aas main
Khawabo me pul baandne lage?

Nahi zaroorat, nahi manzoor har baat main samjhauta
Phir kyun kar rahe ho apni hi kushi ka sauda?

Amazing Lyrics 2

क्या उस गली में कभी तेरा जाना हुआ
जहाँ से ज़माने को गुज़रे ज़माना हुआ
मेरा समय तो वहीं पे है ठहरा हुआ
बताऊँ तुम्हें क्या मेरे साथ क्या-क्या हुआ

Meharbaani Jaate Jaate Mujh Pe Kar Gaya
Guzarta Sa Lamha Ek Daaman Bhar Gaya
Tere Nazara Mila, Roshan Sitaara Mila
Takdeer Ki Kashtiyon Ko, Kinara Mila

मेरी राहें तेरे तक हैं
तुझपे ही तो मेरा हक़ है
इश्क़ मेरा तू बेशक़ है
तुझपे ही तो मेरा हक़ है

तुम जो कह दो तो, आज की रात, चाँद डूबेगा नहीं
रात को रोक लो
रात की बात है और जिन्दगी बाकी तो नहीं

God Speed

Look, how much you've grown
Oh, you've become a man of this day

Look, how far you've come
Oh,  carved a name for yourself today

How far off are you willing to go alone?
At godspeed, only a few places will be left unexplored

A state of estacy didn't kill nobody
Alone sometimes, can never be called a party

You may have a partner but I've seen what they are capable of
Oh how easy it was to put one down for a perfect take off

I've written things you were unwilling to listen
As they say all good things have a final run

I hope you reach the summit faster than a thunder bolt
But don't worry about the collateral damage until you are too old.

Words have a way to reach our ears
Once up there I hope you don't get to hear those

They'll be shrieks and cries and a lot of lies
But you'll sit on a throne you'll call it your right

I hope you travel at the speed of light
Godspeed son, in the end it's always a lonely fight.

Kehne ko!

Kehne ko toh keh de ki aap chand ho mere
Kehne ko do keh de ki hum daag aapke.

Kehne ko toh hum taare bhi hain
Kehne ko toh phir, tum raat humari

Kehne ko toh hum shaadi main tumhara saja joda
Kehne ko toh tum shringaar humara

Kehne ko toh hum bahut kuch ho sakte hai,
Par dehkha jaaye toh kya humare hone ka tumhe ehsaas bhi hai?


Bolo? Bolo toh?

Radha

Radhe tu kyun hai khafa, Kanha toh hain aanadi zara
Oh
Khafa jo tu hui toh Kanha manaye kaise?

Baansuri ki dhun pe tu, jal uthe jaise suraj tu
Kanha toh tera piya, phir kyu hai tu mujhse khafa??

Saath tu hai toh hai saara jaha, saath nahi toh yeh Kanha kaha?
Tere liye main jag se lada, Kanha ki hain ek yeh sada.
-----

Kanha tu toh hain bas mera, phir gopiyon main kaam kya tera?
Teri leela ki maine suni hain sada....

Hain toh tu mera, hain mera piya,
Tu paas nahi toh ghabraye jiya

Kanha tu hai jag main bada
Par mere liye tu hi jag mera

Kanha aur Radha toh hai ek sada
Mere liye tu, main tere liye kya?

Saath hain toh, hai shikva bhi kya
Main tera tu meri, main tujhpe fana
------

Ibadat tu meri, hai meri tu dua
Tu mera preet, tu hi khuda mera

Mohe na kabhi tu chodna oh piya
Tere preet ka raag gungunau sada

Kanha se hai Radha, Radhe se hai Kanha
Radhe ka hai Kanha, Kanhe ki main Radha.

Kalpana

बावरा हूँ मैं इश्क़ मे तेरे
पर तेरी मौजूदगी का मैं मोहताज नही

हसरत थी साथ जीने की तेरे
पर तेरा ज़ाहिर होना ज़रूरी नही

पी चुके है जी भर के जाम आंखों से तेरे
अब उस नशे का भी हमपे कोई जोर नही

यह तोह अब इब्तिदा है एक नए जुनून की
पर इस सोज़ का तेरे से कोई वास्ता नही

कवि की कल्पना ही तोह है सब कोई
अब यह कलम की सिहाई से किसी के वजूद का कोई वास्ता नही। 

Eclipse

I witnessed an eclipse of the moon last night
Also witnessed a blooming flower in that fading moonlight.

That's when I knew I wasn't dreaming
For it bought along a fragrance of new tidings.
