I envy the happiness

I envy the happiness, which always flees away from me,
I love my mother who can still wipe away all my tears and end all my fears.

I envy the smile, which has vanished from my world,
I love my sister who can do anything to have an everlasting smile.

I envy the caress, which has discarded me from its reach,
I love my father and would still love to hold his hand all through my life.

I envy the love, which has bound me with the almighty,
I love my almighty though it's him because of whom I am away from all my liking's.

I envy the words, which took the form of my emotions,
I love my poetry which has turned the tears of pain in to the pearls of love.

days will pass

days will pass
and turn into the years,
but I will always
remember you with silent tears.

jee lunga main bhi aapni tannhai mein

di hai saughaat aaj phirse tumne ashkon ki,
na bhoola paunga dastaan teri in zulmo ki,

laggi hai chott.. rounga jee bhar aaj,
par awaaz na hogi meri inn siskyon ki,

mashroof ho jo tum to mashroof hi rehna,
na tumhein hai mera sath ek bhi gawara,

jee lunga main bhi aapni tannhai mein,
raaj ko na jarorrat rahi abb kissi ke sahare ki.

saath na koi humdam na kisi ki duayein hain

pathar ke shehar mein dil bhi pathar ke paye hain,
murda yahan har shaksh hai, saans lete saaye hain,

sadkon ke jaal mein uljha hua har aadmi hai,
dhuyein ke gubaar mein dum tordti hawayein hain,

roti ki chakki mein zindgiyaan pisti dekhi hain,
mehngayi ke shikanje mein bebas tamannayein hain,

behisaab aabadiyon ka har taraf huzum hai,
saath na koi humdam, na kisi ki duayein hain,

door tak bikhre roshniyon ke kaarwan hain,
apne naseeb mein wahi andheri gufayein hain.

shukra-gujar hain partho teri dosti par

ek dost tu hi to hai jisne mujhe jeena sikhaya,
gum bhari iss duniya mein hassna sikhaya,

jo na hota to kahan jaata kehne apne jazbaat ko,
tune sun ke mera hal-e-dil mujhe dard ko chipana sikhaya.

tha mein jab tannha tannha apno ki bheed mein,
tune deke mere haathon mein apna haath mujhe akele chalna sikhaya.

fulon se bhi jab chubne lage the kaante humein,
tune thaam ke kaanto ke saaye humein dard sehna sikhaya,

shukra-gujar hain partho teri dosti par,
teri dosti ne har path par humein girke sambhalna sikhaya.

neend bhi thak kar huyi choor meri aankhon mein

gum nahi andheron ka, umeed-e-noor hai meri aankhon mein,
rukna nahi seekha,  manzil ka suroor hain meri aankhon mein.

har thokhar naye josh kaa aagaz karti hai seene mein,
apne hauslon par damakta guroor hai meri aankhon mein,

ab jo jaaga hoon to sone ka hosh kaha mujhe,
neend bhi thak kar huyi choor hai meri aankhon mein,

gardish se jo darr jaye wo sitare hum nahi doston,
kali raatein saji hai ban ke surma huzoor meri aankhon mein.

karte hain jo raaj se gila... karte rahe

zindaagi ke safar ka tay faasla karte rahe,
nigahein dhoondhti rahi manzil, paanw chala karte rahe,

ek gum-shuda hoon mein iss bheed ke shehar mein,
khud ki talaash mein hum sab se mila karte rahe,

yeh mana murjha kar khaakh mein mil jana hai inhein,
phirbhi dil-e-aarzu mein umeed ke gul khila karte rahe,

dekh ker har haseen chehare ko yeh dua deta chal,
julfon ke saaye talle maikhane khula karte rahe,

apne usoolon par hum apne andaaz se chalte hain,
karte hain jo raaj se gila... karte rahe!!!
