Andaaz aaj shayarana hai

December ki is sardi mein, 

jab thandi thandi hawa chali.

Hawa chali to ek kitab khuli.

Yaadon ki kitab, khwabon ki kitab,

thodi anban, thode jhagde,thode pyar ki kitab.

Kitab ke panno mein chhupakar, 

rakha tha ek gulab.

Gulab ki pankhudiyon ke niche tera naam nikla.

Tere naam ko dekha, 

to aankhon ke samne se,

apne ek ek pal ka karwaan nikla.

In palo ki kadiyo se, 

ulajhti sulajhti chali gai do kahaniyan.

Hawa ki sihran ne bataya,

kaise in kahinyo se apni kahani bani .

December ki is sardi mein, 

jab thandi thandi hawa chali.

My sweet little child

As I had promised,I would be back with a couple of posts better than the last one. Here is the first one,Hope its good.
(Credits* :: Peeyush for insipration :))


Lying in your cradle
you shine like a star
I look at you
and then I look at the sky above
the darkness of the sky
and the emptiness inside
the prisoned thoughts then come out
as tears from my eyes.

Far away at the horizon
where the sun used to be
is the murky shadow of lies
which I refuse to see
the innocence of the race
has been crushed by its own stride
O my sweet little child
theres a bad bad world outside

Everyday I fight,the demons inside me
Tired and withered, not loosing my tenacity.
The burden of confidence, that I carry with me
and my own expectations,on the verge of insanity.
It tears me apart,taking down the ego.
Killing the love,and killing my soul.
I see you sleeping as I sit close to you
rocking your cradle,I see what I've accrued
Some things,which need to be taken care of
but i promise the sun
will always shine bright on you
Sometimes I may be gone,coz I don't know if I'll get through
But my sweet little child.
I'll always be there for you.

Its Different

There's a lot to write, but no time :( , I want to write about the smokies trip, how we celebrated holi and i got thrown in the schuman lake, cricket and about jigar ;), but it's just that time of the semester :( .But, I still have something to write.. although completely out of context, but i do this once in a while, when I really feel the urge.. I don't really know what to call this piece of writing, but its here, and you decide for me..

chirago mein lau jal jal ke bujhi jati hai
dil mein jo hai bat vo zuba per nahi aati hai
dil chahta hai har lamha usi ke sath
har pal mein vahi nazar aati hai
kahein na kahein ya karein intezar
isi soch mein nikal gai sari raat
kaise kahein unse jo dil mein hai baat

khamoshi bhi humein dekhkar muskurati hai
per isharo mein bhi bat unhe kahan samajh aati hai
dil chahta hai har lamha usi ke sath
per samne ho vo to zuba ladkhadati hai
sambhalein dil ko ya rehne dein yahi haalaat
isi soch mein nikal gai sari raat
kaise kahein unse jo dil mein hai baat ..... :)
