Dheere dheere se meri zindagi mai

Dheere dheere se meri zindagi mai aa ke,

jaane kab mera dil vo chura gaye.

Maine to soocha na tha aisa kabhi hoga,

lekin vo to apana dil mujhe bin mange de gaye.

Sambhalu kaise haalaat bas mai nahi mere,

chupke chupke vo jo dil ke mehmaan ho gaye.

Door pardesh mai jaa base,

bin pooche khayalo mai bhi vo aa gaye.

Aab to had ho chuki khawabo mai aane jaane ki,

sach me aa jaye to  samjho khawab haquikat  ban gaye.

Aaaja re hawa aab tu aaja

Aaja re hawa aab tu aaja,

leja re zaroori sandesh ye mera.

 Aaajhi mujhe usse hai milna,

usko ja ke bata tu zara.

Kushboo aati hai,

uska ehsas  laati hai.

Na paas hoke bhi,

lagata hai paas mere vo aati hai

Ja ja re jake use bata abhi,

meri zindagi hai vo, use samjha bhi.

Janamo ka saath hamara hai ,

jake zara acchi tera samjha tuhi.

Mai kaise rahu uske bin,

acchi tera bata use yea aaj hi ke din.

Kash vo aaye urthi idher pankho bin,

or samajhti meri dil ki baat kahaye bin.

Aaja re hawa aab tu aaja,

leja re zaroori sandesh ye mera.

Milna hai aajhi mujhe usse,

usko ja ke bata tu zara.

Meri dil ki duniya basa ke

Mere dil ki duniya basa ke, 

tum na jaane kahaan chale gaye. 

Rehna tha hume saath saath re, 

tum meri naazaron se door kyu ho gaye?

Tumhara pata maine poocha,

na draktho ne, na phoolo ne bhi bataya. 

Sab chup rah gaye na koi boolha, 

tum meri naazaron se door kyu ho gaye?

Meri haalat pe kisi ko na taras aaya,

per baadalo ne sunni meri vaedana.

Aur haalat pe mere saat vo roh diye,

tum meri naazaron se door kyu ho gaye?

Sab haaste hai mujhe dekhte dekhte, 

per mai rooti hu akele akele. 

Tumhe yaad karte karte,

tum meri naazar se door kyu ho gaye?

Should I go back?

Life takes us along a set course,

our choices our decisions made.

But sometimes we meet a reckoning force,

taunting and declaring them to be a fake.

I left the restaurant that day,

with tears in my eyes and pain in my heart.

The memories of a dear one do not fade away,

they stay entrenched as if never to depart.

Years passed by living on my own,

but the heart was constantly being pulled.

Reminding all  the times that have gone,

in the company of someone I loved.

For years I thought to return,

to the place where my memories were contained.

To visit places that were of both our concern,

Is a question that haunted my mind.

I walked alone as a traveler on the road of time,

under the cover of the rainy skies.

Should i turn back, with a smile ?

I wondered as I inwardly cried.

I had left thinking her dead,

leaving my town my world and my love behind.

Knowing her to be alive was a God sent,

As before does she wait for me eagerly lifting the window blind?

Meri zindagi ho tum

Meri zindagi ho tum,

tumhe  doondhoon kahan.

Naa to milne aye tum,

naa chorha koi raaste ka nishan.

Na vo kushi tumhare bin,

na raha vo hasein samaa.

Aab to tumhare bin,

lage sab soonha soonaha.

Aankho se aansu hein tapakte, 

aansu nahi meri dil ka hai dard.

Mujhe tum bataa too dete,

ki aab mai jaau kidhar. 

Tumhara hi intezaar mein baathe hein,

koi khabar ,chitti paatri bejh do aab.

Hum aankhe darwaze pe lagaye baathe hein,

tum yeah tumhara sandasha aayega kab.

Meri zindagi ho tum,

tumhe doondhoon kahan.

Naa to  milne aye tum,

naa choorha koi raaste ka nishan.

Would never have let you go...

You have gone and without you,

somehow i will learn to live it is true. 

The flame of our love in my heart will brightly burn, 

and I will learn to smile through the pain.

With my own hands it seems,

I extinguished those flames perhaps?

The times I spent happily in your company,

cannot be erased from my heart so quickly?

I did not asked from life for too much,

but my eyes are for ever now moist . 

I have found myself facing adverse conditions,

fatigued after the struggles with my circumstances. 

With my own hands it seems,

I extinguished those flames perhaps?

The times I spent happily in your company,

cannot be erased from my heart so quickly?

If i had the tiniest hint of the impending,  

the doom that awaited my boat a sailing.

I would have stopped what was to have come,

and not let you go even for a second. 

With my own hands it seems,

I extinguished those flames perhaps?

The times I spent happily in your company,

cannot be erased from my heart so quickly?

I would have stopped you i am sure, 

Destiny has shown me this day unfair.

It seems as if even the angels,

were not happy with are meets.

With my own hands it seems,

I extinguished those flames perhaps?

The times I spent happily in your company,

cannot be erased from my heart so quickly?

Brides and bridegrooms

So many expectant bridegrooms, looking for brides,

so many suitors, as if waiting at the aisle.

Will they all find girls of their dreams, I ponder?

The girls are thoughtful and also in wonder.

Marriage is a risk that is taken by all

Will their expectations culminate into exes and naught?

Most men look for moneyed females,

a lazy life to help them financially pass. 

These days who sees character, talent or looks,

Money is the criteria which hides all blotches.

The girls not so moneyed are left high and dry,

No suitors for them and another year passes them by.

But what is this I see in a poor cottage there?

Stands a man on the carpet threadbare. 

A man of character he surely is, 

Possessing a serene face sans any airs.

A light of love shines around him, 

As he kneels before the love of his dream.

She and he are lucky to have found each other,

Compatibility and love are commodities that are rare.

True love is an emotion that lasts a lifetime,

Provided it is nurtured with care and kind.

May we all find life partners that are so loving,

Life will become a dreamboat of understanding.
