Tu paas aakar bhi door si lagti hai,
Ab ye mohabbat bhi majboor si lagti hai.

-

Chhalakte rahe woh har ik zara si thokar pe
Aur hame laga ki paimana hi khaali tha

-

Mere jhuk jaane se voh khush ho jaaein toh jhukne mei harz kya hai
Mere aasuon se unki pyaas bhuj jaaye toh rone mei harz kya hai.

-

Kabhi khidki par aa toh sahi
Buri hi sahi, tu nazar lagaa toh sahi

-

Kabhi baithoge zameen par toh sunaunga haal-e-dil
Ki tere aasmanon mei udu aisi meri fitrat nahi

-

Dil mei rehna unke aasan nahi ‘singh’
Aate hai shab-o-roz musafir tohfe haseen leke

-

Na woh baat bigri na ban paayi
Dil rone ko tha betaab humei haal-e-dil pe hasi aayi

-

Nahi woh baat teri kalam mei tujhe likhna nahin aata
Jaisa duniya ka hai chaal chalan tujhe vaise dikhna nahi aata

Voh thehre talaab talashte hai dhone ko apne daaman ke daag
Tu behti nadi sa bebaak tujhe tikna nahi aata

Voh din ko raat kahein toh raat ko din
Unki raaton mei tujhe taare ginna nahin aata

Tu apni duniya chhod kar hoja ik bashinda unke jahaan ka
Bechkar ghar apne armaanon ka tujhe kiraaye ke sapno mei dikhna nahi aata

Tu baantta hai khushian taak par rakh kar apna swabhimaan
Fir bhi unke paimaane par accha insaan tujhe banna nai aata

Every mountain tells me a story. Some of them are of lore while others gloomy. The crevices rave of its endurance, the pebbles yet of it’s brittleness. Don’t know, don’t have a clue how many strangers walked the trek I am walking today. What would have been their thoughts. Did they manage to fulfil their purpose or are they still struggling to find their voice. It is just amazing how much I have to say. Its just amazing how quiet I have become.

Mai daal daal, mai hi paat hu
Zeher mai hu, mai hi amrut dhaar hu
Hu gyaan ka vidvaan mai, vigyaan ka brahmand hu
Jis nadi ka hai tu paani uska mai kailaash hu

Tu vishaal abhimaan sa toh mai prachand swabhi maan hu
Kya bol tere krenge taya meri uchaayi ko
Parvat tu toh mai baadal ghamasaan hu
Tu kaagaz ka hai sher toh mai, narsingh ki dahaar hu

Tu shiv ka hai taandav toh mai kaali ka naach hu
Tu baaton ka hai veer toh mai karmath balvaan hu
Jahaan dooba hai tu khud ke ahankaar mei
Uss rann ka mai vijeta, mrityunjaya mahakaal hu

Mai hu nahi mohtaaj kisi ki soch ka ‘singh’
Akaar, aviral, alhar, ahvaan hu
Kami kahaan kafan vaalon ki mere dar pe
Hu khud ke dum pe zinda magar, maut ka mai yamraaj hu

Mai daal daal, mai hi paat hu
Zeher mai hu, mai hi amrut dhaar hu
Hu gyaan ka vidvaan mai, vigyaan ka brahmand hu
Jis nadi ka hai tu paani uska mai kailaash hu.
