Dear Miss yet to come…..

नियत

ना जाने ख़ुदा से क्या रंजिश हुयी,

किस वक़्त, क्या समा हुयी,

जिस ख़ुदा को पाक मान लड़ी थी हीर राँझे के लिए,

उसी खुदा से मेरी यह नियत आज ख़फ़ा हुयी…….

Muse

As she was slowly smothered by time,

Her memory, her laughs,

The imperfect perfections,

The ink in my pen had started to wither,

Betrayed by the mind,

Or by a drug of different kind,

My end is near,

The ink had run its spell,

My pen slipped into my ear,

Maybe she can save you,

The one who dares to be your muse O dear…..

Forever and after…..

As the wind lifted their fragile bodies,
And pushed them far into the rainbow,
Two stars had just born,
Physical and the metaphysical,
Forever and after……….

मजबूर…..

मजबूर हूं तेरी इबादत से ए मालिक,
वरना तो जिस्‍म यह मिट्टी ही है…….

I am chained to your worship,

This body is nothing but sand…..

Sound…..

If only sound could travel through nothingness,
We would have known,
The pain the Moon feels,
Distance would never reduce,
Between her and the Earth,
Maybe that’s why its craters,
Tell a story,
Perennial, endless, infinite,
Sound can be underrated sometimes……

I want to live…..

I don’t want to die.

Rather live with you.

Everyday, each moment,

When I get to live two lives,

The one that’s meant for you,

And the one for us,

I want to live with you,

As long as the day shines,

And the days after them….

तराज़ू….

वफ़ा की हमारी हमने ना कोई नज़्म दी थी,
ज़माना क्या बैमान हुया था जिस दिन,
अपने तो तराज़ू में इस नाचीज़ को तोल दिया था…

Just not…..

She was the Angel,
The ordinary worshipped as a God,
She lost her heart,
To the one,
Who could only see,
Just not through his eyes…….

Love …..

Admirers of love there are,

Just a sight and they are absolved……….
