The Touch of a Writer.

MAYBE IT WASN'T LOVE

I cannot escape the fact
that our love wasn't enough,
maybe it wasn't love
but a feeling deeper than that, 
the feeling of a perfect realm
when you're staring at a star
on a lonely night, 
knowing the light is from
tens of thousands of years ago, 
knowing the star might
not even exist anymore, 
but the only thing in the whole universe
keeping you alive tonight
is the light from that one star, 
just stardust and magical thoughts, 
well, you were my star.

some nights, I still dream about your kisses
kisses on the neck,
kisses on the hand,
the way your lips tasted when I was helpless
the bitter sadness in that one last kiss

I mean to say, I don't think I can ever forget,
your lips, soft as light and sweet as music,
you could kill me with them,
and I'd thank you.
you could kill me,
and I'll be glad you came over.

my friends are saying it's tragic
how I'm still killing myself over lost love,
but they never tasted your lips,
and I'm tired of biting my own.

Yuun bekhabar gumsum sa chalte jaa raha hu kahi
Raaste andekhe, na jaane pehchaane kahi
Manzil ki talash mei ek safar kaat'te kahi
Bas nikal pada hu apne aap ko hi khojne kahi
Nakaamyaabi ke khauf se darta kahi
Gumnaam si zindagi se joojhta kahi
Apni hi aad mai apne aap se ladta kahi
Najaane kaunsi khwaashish ko poora karne nikla hu aaj
Sulagte iss dil ko shaant karane ki koshish hai aaj
Bas yuhi dheeme dheeme chalta jaa rha hu
Har kadam ke saath dil halka karte jaa rha hu
Hazaar sawaal mann ke aaj peeche chodd diye hai kahi
Khudse kiye anginat aaj waade tod diye hai kahi
Yuun bekabar gumsum sa chalte jaa raha hu kahi
Khauf se ladte, khudki talash mai yahi bhatakte kahi

यह जिस्म से बहता रक्त ही नजाने क्यों
मेरे दर्द की कहानी
और
मेरी कहानी बन गयी की स्याही बन गयी

यह आंखों से निकलते आंसू ही नजाने क्यों
मेरे लम्हो को ताज़ा
और
मेरे इश्क़ को बयां कर गयी

आओ, कुछ लिखते है
तुम बोलते रहो हुम् सुनते है
अपने अपने ख्वाब बुनते है
अपनी एक अलग दुनिया मे मिलते है
आओ, कुछ लिखते हैं

कहो, क्या सोच रहे हो तुम
किन जज़्बातों को जोड़ रहे हो तुम
किन बातो की गहराइयो को खोद रहे हो तुम
किन यादो की जंजीरों को तोड़ रहे हो तुम
कहो, क्या सोच रहे हो तुम

बताओ, कुछ याद आया?
जब मलाल के समय मैं प्यार लाया
जब फूलो सी महक बेशुमार लाया
जब खुशिया भी मैं बार बार लाया
बताओ, कुछ याद आया?

Katra katra fail raha hai
Mere veer jawan ka
Laasho ka ambaar bichaana
Hai iraada Hindustan ka

Inki hi bhaasha mai
Inko hum smjhaayenge
Maqbarho ka shauq hai
Chalo inka bhi banwayenge

Mushkil sa yeh samay hai
Saath hum nibhayenge
Hai musaafir inteqaam ke
Ghaav chodd jayenge

Ubal rha hai desh mera
Gusse ki iss aag mai
Tabaah ho jayega guroor tumhaara
Hindustan ki ek awaaz mai

गुज़ार दिया बचपन जहा
आज उसी को अलविदा है
जिस जीवन के लिए जिये यह 12 साल
अब उसकी राह का ही इब्तिदा है

Sach batao...
Kyu roz mujhse baat karti ho?
Jab kehne ko kuch nhi hota
Kyu roz intezaar karti ho?
Jab milna nahi hota
Kyu roz izhaar karti ho?
Jab nibhana nhi hota
Kyu mujhe bekaraar karti ho?
Jab qubool hi nhi karna hota
Sach batao...
Kyu har roz mujhpe aisaan karti ho?
Ya sachme pyaar karti ho?
