God Save me!

Today  friend suggested that I need a brain mapping so that it can be understand what exactly I keep on cooking in my mind. Well that sounds like a great idea. I don’t mind as they will be paying the fees :) I don’t know whats wrong with me. As the nights passes by & the moon climbs higher, I become quieter. You just can’t imagine how sad this butterfly feels even when she is sitting cozily on her bed, tucked into a quilt. Can you imagine what kind of situation forces a person to shed tears in lonely nights, sitting on the high pillar of hostel terrace.  It is always said that all the she-species are always complex to understand even for God himself. However I wonder if I top the list of complex persons! It’s my very nature that just like the temple bell, I keep resonating long after I have been struck by a problem. I wouldn’t feel even a bit if I would sneeze and found pieces of my brain on the handkerchief, cause I have been straining my brain so much lately.
Whenever I sit alone I hear a sound like a bird’s wings flapping in panic. Perhaps it was my heart, I don’t know. But if you have ever seen a trapped bird inside the great hall of a temple, looking for some way out, 1 god damn escape, that is how my mind is reacting. Is life nothing more than a storm that constantly washes away what had been there only a moment before, & leave behind something barren & unrecognizable?  I had never had such a thought before. To escape it I ran all around the house, but it kept haunting me. Even now the thoughts are sitting on my bed just beside me, claiming their king’s share, while I’m pushed to a corner. They are trying to squash me like a cockroach.

I see him every day on the street side, while I walk in the morning. He wore no shirt but only his loose fitting skin. The more I looked at him the more he began to seem like just a curious collection of shapes & texture. His arms  were stick wrapped in old leather, dangling from two bumps. I wonder who is having more complex life! Is it him or is it still me!

ek gunah-e-bekhudi mujhe har pal chahiye

wo puchtey hai kya mujhe mohabbat hai
wo puchtey hai kya mujhe mohabbat hai
mein kehti hun, ek gunah-e-bekhudi mujhe har pal chahiye

Begaani ye khushi

Begaani ye khushi
Jitna bhago utna peecha karwati ye khushi
Pal bhar ko haath lag ke meelo dur bhag jati ye khushi
Zindagi ko matlab deti, aur bemaayna bhi banati khushi
Anchahee ek justazoo jagati khushi
Anbujhi ek pyaas chor jati khushi
Mil ke bhi naa mil pati khushi

Alfaazo mein naa samati khushi
Aankho se chalak jati khushi
Kabhi jahir kabhi ojhal
Tere jaisa saath nibhati khushi
Kitne chole badal badal kar
Jiya mera dhadkati khushi
Gumnami ke sehra mein tera nishaan banati khushi
Gumsum gumsum mein rehti hun
Kaash tu mil jati khushi
Begaani ye khushi

JUGNOO

Jugnuo ke sang mein bhi jalti rahi
Raat gumsum si mujhe takti rahi
Sawera hoga ye pata tha
Par uski ummeed ab mit si gayi
Bharosa tha tu hai yahi kahi
Par ab lagta hai tera wajood hee nahi
Naa dikhaya karo hume ye khwab gulabi
Ishq bas ek alfaaz hai ruhani
Diye ki lau si hai ye zindagani
Bujhi bujhi si kapkapati
Kisi se naa keh payenge hum ye kahani
Mere liye tu anjaana tere liye mein anjaani
Ummeed ki kaliya daman chuda rahi
Hausla-o-himmat bhi ab jati rahi
Jugnuo ke sang mein bhi jalti rahi
Raat gumsum si mujhe takti rahi

SAMJHONA

Ye Bekarari, Ye bekhudi ka aalam.
Dasti hai ye Tanhai, teri judai ka hai gam,
Aa jaa ke intazar hua mushkil
Ya khuda itni to na thi kabhi mein besharam
Tere pyaar ko tarasti hun pal pal
Tere aagosh mein milega mujhe naya janam
Anjaani 1 Pyaas lagi hai ab toh har pal
Chahu tere labo ka samandar daayam
Kis Bebaki se karun bayaan wo armaan
armaan jo chaltey hai saath har kadam
waqt ki sajish se dolta hai mann
hai ab toh dagmag se mere kadam
Meri khwahishon ki duniyan
tujh se hee suru aur tujh par khatm
maangi hai dua maine chahat se hoke majboor
tujh tak jaa pahuchey meri ye nazm
zahir ho tujh par mere dil ka muamelaah
meri tadap sunkar hongi teri bhi aankhey nam
Tufaan sa ho meri zindagi mein tu dakhil
Aur le jaaye mujhe apney hee sang

Wo sanwli si ladki

Wo sanwli si ladki jab bhi piya se batiyati hai
Anjaney wo khud mein hee simat-ti si jaati hai

Kabhi masoom, kabhi sharmati kabhi naraz ho jati hai
hoton ka chabana Kabhi to kabhi itrana Piyajee ko bhi behkati hai

Faqaat guftagoo se chain kab aaye hai usey
Ek khata karney ki bekarari mein machalti jati hai

Tumhey pane se pehle hee kho naa de is baat se ghabrati hai
Bas 1 Khuda-saz ke bahon mein khud ko mehfuz pati hai

Khudaya kis kadar karegi daayam wo ladki
samna-e sajish jo takdir ne kar dali hai

Pinhaan rakhti hai wo kissa-e-mohabbat
Ke darti hai kahi ho na jaye koi jag behaiyee

Partoye khur se hai tai us yakta ka ana

Teri maasom nigahey karti hai ye ishara,
Tu bhi chahe hai kisise mohabbat ka nazrana.

Naummeed na hona e parios
Tere liye bhi munhassir hai khuda-parast ek banjara

Koi rajdan tere liye bhi aayega
Karega tere Dil-e-birane mein ujala

Tu intazar to kar sehar honey tak
Partoye khur se hai tai us yakta ka ana

Guzre pal ke kabr pe kya payegi
Baki hai abhi aane wale kal ka afsana

Jo chala gaya uska matam kya karna
Zindagi rukti nahi kisi kafir se hoke ruswa

Wafurey asq-ne kiya hai kab zillat ko nehan
Karle tu ab is madha-e-matam se tauba

Ishq mein rakh tu dam itna
Ek teri aah nikle aur tamam ho chor ke janewala
