तेरा बरामदा

आज भी जब उस राह गुज़रता हूँ,नज़रें एक टक उस बरामदे पर चली जाती हैं. खुद को झूठ ना बोल पाऊंगा,हाँ, देखते ही यादेँ ताज़ा हो जाती हैं. तू नहीं, पर तेरा एहसास आज भी है वहां,इक भ्रम सी परछाई आज भी दिख जाती है. उस कमरे की तस्वीर आज भी ज़हन में हैं छपी,वह…

Three Summers

On a briskly breezy evening;I met you the very same day,Three summers back.You are, my frightening nightmare.You still is, my most comforting dream.

Mera Sapna

Woh mulakat aaj bhi ek sapne jaisa lagta hain. Us shaam woh dabe paon, Chupke se mere kinare aake baitha. Uski muskurahat ne mere sapne ko hakikat ka jama pehna diya tha, Ek untarashe chehre ko tarashke meri aankhon ke samne bitha diya. Woh mulaqat aaj bhi ek sapne jaisa lagta hain. Meri aakhe ek…

The earth broke apart,All the trails disappeared.The heart broke into endless pieces.How does one convalesce the broken heart?Unfortunate me, the happiness had always remained beyond my reach,But with my pyre, I light the lantern of your happiness.May you be blessed with it wherever you may go,I pray fervently that you thrive and attain your covets.My…

I can’t, and I don’t want to

It seems like yesterday, when we met on a random summer evening,The arena was full of innocent souls and was operatic,And the dark night illuminated with a glitter of your eyes.For the sake of my lustre,I don’t want to let you go, my sunshine. The place was new but the people were known,Where the song…
