All things interesting …

Life hai sooni si 

Aur mausam hai thanda 

Na aadmi ki jaat na koi parinda 

Patte hain sookhe se 

Honth aur baal bhi rookhe se 

Magar …

Hawa hai taazi 

Aur garden mein

Bacche hain Khel mein khoye 

Football ko maarte hue Idhar se udhar 

Udhar se idhar 

Kabhi dikhte hain 

Kabhi ojhal hote 

Kitne naadaan kitne aasaan va saral 

Jo Saamne hai vo hai 

Jo nahi vo tho jaise kuchh hai he nahi 

Hamesha vartmaan he

Hai Inke dhyaan mein

Ball jab tak khelte hain 

Jhelte hain thand garmi hawa aur baarish

Khel khatam hone par hoti hai snack ki khwahish

Har waqt Yaha, abhi, iss dum 

Bus wo aur ye pal.

चकाचौंध सी ये रात कि स्याही

आँखें मूँदता है बदन

रोशनी – ये शर्मायी सी छिपी सी खड़ी थी दिन कि धुँधलाहट में

इंतज़ार में

pyar se Karne lagi mujhse sawaal

ki tum kaun ho 

Kya hai tumhara kaam yaha 

Ye maloom nahi tho fir yaha kyu aur kaise

Kuchh asafal si dikhti ho, kuchh asahaay si bhi

Kissne bulwaya tumhein iss jahaan mein

Kissne di panaah ki abhi tak zinda ho 

Kya hai wo Paigaam jo tumhare Alawa koi aur nahi de paata  

Intezaar kisska hai , betalbi kyu hai , shuruaat mein deri kya hai , thehri si sehmi si kyu ho

Shukreguzaar hoon 

bahut he kadradaan hoon aaj kal

 ki zubaan pe ik Dua si hai 

Ki Jin adhuri khwahishon  se man rehta tha bechain 

unhi chahato ko poora hote dekh rahi hoon mai 

Ek Ajab si khushi , ek Muskaan Aati hai yehi soch kar labo pe 

Ki jiss soch mein guzra abhi tak gham-e-zamaana

Wo bani aaj haathon ki lakeeron mein likhi ghazal 

Nason mein inaayat ya ibaadat si behti hai

Bhar deti hai dil 

Aankhein bhi geeli geeli ho Leti hain 

Shukreguzaari ki ye aadat

Khushi apne aap hamare ghar aagan mein raha karti hai

Aaj kal kuchh Hawa he Aisi hai chali 

Kuchh Mausam he hai badla sa

Kuchh shaakhein bhi hain nangi si

Kuchh shokhiyaan bhi hain sard si 

Kuchh oas bhi hai Ghaas pe 

Kuchh hosh bhi hai hum udaas bhi 

Kuchh patte peele se

Kuchh hai ve dheele se

Hawa mein udein baarish ki boondein 

Aasman se tange wo baadal 

Kuchh thand si hai aaj kal hawa mein 

Kuchh shushk se hain honth bhi 

Kuchh narm si hai Zameen yaha

Kuchh asar hai judaai ka 

Jaise haath failaye Khade hai darakht

Baraf ki parto ki chadar ke liye 

Kuchh mahino baad sehi 

Aaogi tho udhaogi tho 

Dhakogi tho iss kurhkurhaati thand mein

Pakdogi tho haath

Dogi na saath 

Saawan tak

Jab chidiya fir cheh chahaengi 

Phoolo ki kaliya jo bhool si gayi thi mujhe 

Mujhe door se dekhte he sharmaengi aur khil-khilaengi bahut

Aur chalta rahega ye silasila iss patjhad ki hawa ki tarah 

Behta rahega

Har saawan se 

Saawan tak .

Not very long ago did I start something called ‘tapping’. It was intended to release blocked emotions and indirectly relieve my frozen shoulder pain. A very clever lady called Kanika Gupta started me off on it.

With her I am learning the art of chipping away at a mountain and staying at it. The staying part is very hard for me. My mind wanders frequently; away from the chipping and into standing beside the mountain and looking to the top and feeling less , a feeling that I am nowhere close to where I want to be. Sometimes the feeling is similar to having been trapped for aeons in shackles, someone who has recently been awarded freedom to be in normal day light, normal air and with normal people.

Normal people… why even expect the world from them ? The nurture and support. The Universe provides that anyway.

To be continued…

Go less with the flow

Carve your own path a bit more

Think a bit less

Do a lot more

Commit yourself

Fear a lot less

Look within a bit more

To others a little less

Move a lot more

Stand aside and watch yourself grow

Its indescribable warmth and camaraderie

Everything looks beautiful in togetherness

To be cherished

forever

These moments of love and harmony

To be re-lived

forever.

Life feels like a whirr when it’s not slow

Take it easy, says my soul

Not too much talking, not too much walking or running around

Easy does it, says the mind.

So relax my friend,take a deep deep inhale

Let go of the past and surrender to the moment

Let the future unfold as it will

Stand not in its way

Sit back and enjoy this ride

The bumpity rumble and tumble

You are half way there and all is well

As far as the mind can see

Take your time

Enjoy the hues, the blues, the views

And love the tide

Let the waves come rolling at your feet

Feel the sand beneath

Leave your footprint behind

Sandcastles too

Let the waves come rolling in

For no one can control the tide

So surrender

Accept and love

Take a few deep breaths when things don’t go right and let go of hurt

Glide into the future

Gleam bright and shine your light !

Hamesha mere saath

Hamesha saath nibhane wale

Kabhi bhi haath nahi chhoda

Pal pos kar bada kiya, apna jo kuchh tha sab kuchh de diya

Waqt, himmat, pyar, dulaar, acche bure sanskaar, khushi se jeene ka dhang, sehat ka khayaal karna vagehra sab kuchh sikhaya

Kabhi kuchh nahi maanga, sirf diya

Aur hamare liye kiya

Tum dono ne he bahut kiya hum sab ke liye

Hum kabhi itna nahi de paaye tumhein, ek rinh hai hum pe wo

Bus yaad karke, naman karke apni zindagi tumhare dikhaye hue raste aur sikhaye hue adarsho se chal paayein, wo he de sakenge tumhein hum iss janam mein.

Jab din mein bhi ho

Raaton ka andhera aankhon mein

ek aur raat jab neend khele aankh micholi

Mastishq bhi khele buri yaado se badrang rango ki holi

Aur zehen mein reh jaaein adhuri chaahtein.

Magar aarzu ye hai ki fir aaye saawan ghoom ke ik din

Jab shaam hote he sapne humein bhi Karein yaad

Yaadon mein bhi bhare rang bemisaal

Aur jaise bhaang ke se nashe mein jhoome mera mann aaj

Aisi Khoobsurat khwahishon ki imaarat khadi ki Maine.

Fir ek din sacchai se hui ittefaq se mulaquat…

Aankho mein Mili andhiyari raat

Raat ke andhere mein Chhupe hue ashq

Ashquon mein dabe hue, dhanse hue khwaab

Khwaabon mein bahut sara hansna, khelna, dena aur paana

Pyaar he pyaar

Jab mitt jayenge hum yaha se, iss jahaan se

Sapne mil jaayenge mitti mein

Raakh ho jayenge jab sab gilaah shikwe

Tab ek aisi neend aayegi

Ki koi bhi shor, sharaarat, soch

In sapno mein rehne se rok nahi paayegi

Aisi ek Kali Syah Raat
