Sarhad ke us par rehne waale panchee

Sarhad ke us par rehne waale panchee
Kabhie sarhad ke is paar to aa

Apna aangan to tune dekha
Kabhie aakar aangna dekh mera

Apne des ka daanaa chakha hai tune
Kabhie mere des ka daanaa chug ke dekh zaraa

Apne aangaan ke darakhton par kiya hai basrea tune
Kabhie mere aangan ke pedon par bhee thahar zara

Naa tera hai woh aangaan
Naa yeh angnaa hai mera
Sarhadon ne kheencheen hain lakeerein
Warna hai sansaar tera

Teree yaad ...

Aksar toot ke bikhartaa hai woh aankhon mein
Aksar ek saayaa lehraataa hai mere khwaabon mein

Tu paas naheen mere ye maantaa hoon main
Par tera hee eshaas paayaa hai maine apnee saanson mein

Yaad teree aaye to baarish hotee hai palkon ke aangan mein
Gaalon se beh kar ek nadiya kho jaatee hai daaman mein

Teree yaaden teree baaten miltee hain mujhko shaamon mein
Tera chehraa dikhaee detaa hai mujhko yaadon mein

Tere aane kee umeed uthaatee hai mujhko raaton mein
Tere saath hone ka ehsaas hotaa hai tanhaaiyon mein

Tera Ehsaas ...

Teree fikr mein guzree meri raatein
Teree yaadon mein beete mere din

Teree sanson ki garmee ko mehsoos kiya hai maine
Tere dil ki dhadkan ko paya apne dil ke quareeb

Tere chehre ko dhoondhtee apnee nazron ko dekha
Tere aane ki aahat sunne ki tadap ko bhee paya maine

O! my little star please shine ..

I miss u all the time
O! my little star please shine

Time passes memories rhyme
O! my little star please shine

Heavens pray throw me a dime
O! my little star please shine

Sure thing is what we want
But you should know what is prime

O! my little star please shine

Love ain't here anymore

Baby dont you want me to go
So honey, why don't you beg me to stay
For love, and talk the way we used to talk
Til we both know what we've lost
Never say the words we did before
When it was over

Love ain't here anymore
Love ain't here anymore
Its gone away, to a town called yesterday
Love ain't here anymore

Listen, oh listen, I dont wanna let go
So maybe we can change the way we feel
For love, and open up the way we did before
Now is the right time
And I'm sure you'd never say the words you did before
When it was over

Love ain't here anymore
Love ain't here anymore
Its gone away, to a town called yesterday
Love ain't here anymore

And when I find a place for me to keep my sweet love
Then I will leave it there forever more, yeah
And when I find someone to share I'll never give up
I will hold you and believe that this life leads to more

Love ain't here anymore
Love ain't here anymore
Its gone away, to a town called yesterday
Love ain't here anymore

Waqt Naheen

The following is a poem I received in a forwared email, and I loved it absolutely. I searched for the writer but couldn't find it, if you know who wrote it please let me know his / her name so that he can get his due credit. Thanks in advance.

"Waqt Naheen ..."

Har khushi hai logon ke daaman mein,
Par ek hansi ke liye waqt naheen.

Din-raat daudti duniya mein,
Zindagee ke liye hee waqt naheen.

Maa kee loree kaa ehsaas to hai,
Par maa ko maa kehne ka waqt naheen.

Saare rishton ko to hum maar chuke,
Ab unhe dafnane ka bhi waqt naheen.

Saare naam mobile mein hain
Par dosti ke liye waqt naheen.

Gairon kee kya baat karen,
Jab apno ke liye hee waqt naheen.

Aankhon mein hai neend badee
Par sone kaa waqt naheen.

Dil hai ghumon se bhara hua
Par rone kaa bhi waqt naheen.

Paison kee daud mein aise daude,
Ki thakne kaa bhee waqt naheen.

Paraye ehsason kee kya quadr karein,
Jab apane sapnon ke liye kee waqt naheen.

Tu hee bata e-zindagee,
Is zindagi kaa kyaa hoga,
Ki har pal marne waalon ko,
Jeene ke liye bhee waqt naheen.

I miss you

This is one of my favourite songs by Darren Hayes.

"I Miss You"

Gimme a reason
Why I'm feeling so blue
Everytime I close my eyes, all I see is you
Gimme a reason
Why I can't feel my heart
Everytime you leave my side, I just fall apart
And when you're fast asleep, I wonder where you go
Can you tell me, I wanna know
Because I miss you
And this is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on
Gimme a reason
Why I can't concentrate
The world is turning upside down
Spinning round and round
Gimme a reason
Why I now understand
The beauty and simplicity of everything surrounding me
You got a way of spreading magic everywhere
Anywhere I go, I know you're always there
It sounds ridiculous, but when you leave a room
There's a part of me that just wants to follow you too
Because I miss you
And this is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on
It's such a hard life in most of the
I'm just surviving
That's why I want you to know
In the world where sincerity has lost its meaning
You fill my world with so much hope
And I miss you
This is all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
I think about you when you're gone
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on
You know I miss you
And this all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, beautiful
These three words have said it all
You know I miss you
And this is all I wanna do
I know it doesn't sound too cool
But maybe I'm in love with you
You know I miss you
And this all I wanna say
I guess I miss you, nothing's wrong
I don't need to carry on
I just miss you
Yeah, it's true
I miss you, baby
And when you're walking out that door
I know I miss you
You make me wanna ask for more
I just miss you
Yeah, it's true
I miss you, baby ...

Potrait of a tear ...

Let me show it the gates of my eyes
Let it roll down my cheeks
Let it make it wet
Let me hold it on my hand
Let it leave a mark as it chooses its path
Let it show what it means
Let it display what it cares
Let it speak its mind
Let it express it all
Let it color me blue
Let it paint me red

Into the unknown I walk

Into the unknown I walk
I run down the road into the wild
I feel the air gushing into my hair
I taste the water running into me
But I keep running
In the search of what .. I dont know
In the search I suspect .. will continue for long
I face the sun - I touch the rain
Out of this world there is no pain
Into the unknown I walk
I run down the road into the wild

Apologize

I heard this beautiful song today .. I really want to share with all of you .. hope you like it:

I'm holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say...
That it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I'd take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it's nothing new - yeah yeah
I loved you with the fire red
Now it's turning blue, and you say...
"Sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid...
It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late whoa.....
It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah
I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground...

Main ..

This new poem of mine is an inspiration from my dear friend's [name with held to retain privacy] new poem .. it is amazing that she tends to express herself in a very simple yet phenominal way. I absolutely adore her for this. Kudos to you my dear. The following words are what I see you as.

Main ek dristaa hoon aur ek drishtee bhee

Main ek waktaa bhee hoon aur ek shrotaa bhee
Main ek samandar bhee hoon aur ek boond paanee kee
Main meelon lambaa kinaaraa hoon ret kaa aur ek kan kirkiri bhee
Main hoon ek pyaaree see muskaan aur khilkhilaatee ek hansee bhee
Main athaah saagar hoon samay kaa aur maamoolee see ek kshanika bhee

Main khaale ek pyaalaa bhee hoon aur madhushaalaa bhee
Main ek bikhraa hua manav hoon aur ek rachaitaa bhee
Main swayam bhee hoon aur twam bhee

Main saakaar bhee hoon aur main omkaar bhee
Main hee aadee hoon aur main hee ant bhee

Woh poochte hain chaahat kyon hai hume itni?

This is a very nice poem by JS a.k.a. Dushman ... good going ... keep it up

Woh poochte hain chaahat kyon hai hume itni?

Har Dil ka dhadakna chahat nai hoti
Har chahat mohabbat nai hoti
Haan pyaar hai muje tujse
Par har rishtey ki ek hi pehchaan nahi hoti

Hun tuj se alag toh
Par hu tere sath hi
Badhaa ke dekh haath apna
Tu paega mera hath wahin

Tu chahe toh tujhse door rahu
Tu chahe toh tere pas abhi
Teri khushi hai sabse pyari mujhko
Nahi parwah mujhe duniya ki

Har Dil ka dhadakna chahat nai hoti
Har chahat mohabbat nai hoti
Haan pyaar hai muje tujse
Par har rishtey ki ek hi pehchaan nahi hoti

Why is it painful yet a feeling?
Why is it amazing yet painful yet a feeling?

This feeling called love..
This amazing feeling called love..
This painful feeling called love..

And Madhushaala continues ..

Pyale ko haathon mein lekar, adharon se choo loon haalaa
Aankhein moond kar dekhoon usko, kitnee pyaari saaqui-baalaa
Pal mein tola pal mein maasaa, yehi athkhelee karti hai
Tez bhaagtaa main usko choone, aur tez nikaltee madhushaala

Chir-parichit apnee adaaon se mohit mujko kartee hai
Moh-paash ke paash ko kastee us par haalaa
Mohit ho main peeche chaltaa, aage chaltee saaqui-baalaa
Jis dwaar se nikloon ghar ko us dwaar pe miltee madhushaala

Thodi-thodi kehta saaqui, khalee karta jo main pyaale par pyaalaa
Madhu-kalash bhar jaate kshan mein peetaa main jo haalaa
Saansarik kolahal shaant ho jaata, jab chootee madhu jeehwah
Taptee garmee mein sheetal chaaya jaisee meri madhushaala

An addition to Madhushaalaa

This post of mine is an addition to the antique piece of work named 'Madhushaalaa' by Late Shree Harivansh Rai Bachchan. This addition is not intended to any how disgrace the phenomenal work of Mr. Bachchan but a point of view of my own. Right before I wrote the following lines I was reading 'Madhushaalaa', and as we all know that it surely is one of the master-pieces of work in Hindi poetry. If read carefully each para of Madhushaalaa will convey a different meaning / message and each meaning of each para of this marvel work is true to what it conveys. I would like to salute Mr. Bachchan on his efforts to put carefully chosen words to deliver Madhushaalaa to Hindi Literature.

Samajh nahee payaa main haalaa
Na hee main samjha pyaalaa
Na samajha main saaquee ko
Na main samjha madhushaalaa

Jigyaasaa shant karne kee khatir
Main aaj gaya thaa madhushaalaa

Maine diya tha pyaalaa khud ko
Main hee thaa peenewala
Main banaa khud apnaa saaquee
Main madhu-vikretaa, main madhushaalaa

Jab main niklaa madhushaalaa se
Yaad rahe kuch shabd mujhe
Meraa haala mera pyaalaa
Mera saaquee meri madhushaala

Ek ichha ..

This is another work by JS a.k.a. Dushman .. great work again .. you are really doing great .. keep it up.

Ek ichha ..

Ho jaatee agar dil ki har muraad pooree
Na hota ghum na hotee yeh dooree
Beh jaate samandar aasuoon ke
Ghum ke naheen khushiyon ke

Sailaab aa jaataa ashkon kaa
Beh jaata samandar jazbaaton kaa
Dabe hue har khayaal kaa
Jise anadar samaye baithe rahe
Din maheene saal ka naheen
Hisaab thaa yeh janamon kaa

Pooraa kar lene do yeh khwaab aankhon kaa
Jo soye naheen hain kai raaton se
Piya hai ghoont jisne lahoo kaa
Kasoor inkaa naheen is dil ka thaa
Kiye har jatan duniyaa waalon ne
Samjhaanaa chaha par bekaar thaa

Mat samjho ise na-samajh doston
Jo maang baitha hai yeh dil
Woh to khudaa thaa
Har dil mein jo bastaa hai
Har ghar mein woh rehtaa hai
Phir kya galat yeh mera rishtaa hai

-JS

Khamoshi khud apni ...

This post is a mind blowing ghazal sung by amazing Jagjit Singh. I really like it and that's why I'm posting it here. I dont know who is the writer, so if you know then please let me know so I can put his / her name in credit.


Khamoshi khud apni ...


Khamoshi khud apni sadaa ho aisa bhee ho saktaa hai
Sannataa hee goonj raha ho aisa bhee ho saktaa hai

Mera maazee mujhse bichad kar kya jaane kis haal mein hai
Meri tarha woh bhee tanhaa ho aisa bhee ho saktaa hai

Sehra sehraa kab taq main dhoondhoon ulfat ka ik aalam
Aalam aalam ik sehraa ho aise bhee ho sakta hai

Ehle toofan soch rahe hain saahil doobaa jaata hai
Khud unka dil doob raha ho aisa bhee ho saktaa hai

Khamoshi khud apni sadaa ho aisa bhee ho saktaa hai
Sannataa hee goonj raha ho aisa bhee ho saktaa hai

Shaam-e-jaam

Saaqui intizaar karta hai tera shaam-e-jaam,
Hasrat bhari nazar se dekhta tujhko shaam-e-jaam,

Fikr mein teri har pal marta hai shaam-e-jaam,
Khaalee hokar bhee kitnaa bharaa hua hai shaam-e-jaam.

Rishtey aur Hum

This is a poem by JS a.k.a. Dushman - Good job dear dushman .. Keep it up:


Rishtey aur hum

Rishtey yeh bas mann ka ek veham hain
Sachai bas yeh hai ki akele, bas akele hee hum hain

Aise main koi saathi mil jataa hai
Dost - Mehboob - Maa - Baap se dil jud jaate hain

Phir bhi waqt aisa aa hi jaata hai
Jab dil ko koi bhi nahi bhaata hai

Unhi rishto mai ab dum ghunth sa jaata hai
Kyunki - rishtey yeh bas mann ka ek veham hain
Sachai bas yeh hai ki akele, bas akele hi hum hain ...

Koi tumse poochey ....

This is amongst the most phenominal work of words I've seen in recent times. Very simple words carrying the extreme weight of emotions. I found it in *****'s [name with held to retain privacy] orkut profile. I'm posting this after taking her consent. The writer of this poem is not known to either of us as she too found this somewhere on the internet. If any of you know the name of the person who wrote it, then please let me know, I'll me more than happy to put a name instead of 'unknown'. I hope you will like his / her work.

Koi tumse poochey...


Koi tumse pooche kaun hoon main,
Tum keh dena koi khaas naheen.

Ek dost hai kaccha pakka saa,
Ek jhooth hai aadhaa saccha saa.

Jazbaaton ko dhaanpey ek pardaa,
Bus ek bahanaa accha saa.

Jeevan ka ek aisa saathi hai,
Jo door na ho kar paas naheen.

Koi tumse pooche kaun hoon main,
Tum keh dena koi khaas naheen.

Hawa ka ek suhana jhonkha hai,
Kabhi naazuk toh kabhi toofaanon saa.

Shaql dekh kar jo nazrein jhukaa le,
Kabhee apna toh kabhee begaanon saa.

Zindgee ka ek aisa humsafar,
Jo samandar hai, par dil ko uskee pyaas naheen.

Koi tumse pooche kaun hoon main,
Tum keh dena koi khaas naheen.

Ek saathee jo ankahee kuch baatein keh jaataa hai,
Yaadon me jiska ek dhundhla chehra reh jaataa hai.

Yuh toh uske naa hone kaa kuch gam naheen,
Par kabhee-kabhee aankhon se ansu ban ke beh jaata hai.

Yuh rehta toh mere tassavur me hai,
Par in aankho ko uski talaash naheen.

Koi tumse pooche kaun hoon main,
Tum keh dena koi khaas naheen.

To a friend far away

This post is a poem I read in 'Delhi Times' or 'Saturday Times' of Times of India published in December 1996. I don't know the name of the poet as I didn't really bothered to copy who wrote the darn thing. It is amongst one of the poems I actually never understood. What made me read it was the title of the poem - 'To a friend far away', it intreagued me, made me ask questions - what is it about a friend who is far away; why he (the poet) is writing something for him / her; what is there which is so important for him to convey to the audience through a poem; etc. It is certainly written with finesse. If you understand the meaning of this work, please do care to explain it to me. The poem follows:



To a friend far away

Between official letters, I doodle the wet,
Wild tendrils of a familiar alphabet:

I leaf through books, watch the sand
Run as I read small print inked on your hand:

Breathing the sulphur of the city fumes,
I sense your far away breathing rhythms

Quicken as you turn and round,
Looking for a child in the market crowd:

Hear oceans lash between now and now,
Groping in the mist for what I can know,

Do, or be, when affections find a bird,
Tiny, button-eyed, city-bewildered,

Green-yellow, hopping in the yard: I take it
Home in a kerchief to a check ered blanket,

May be only to find it dead,
By morning in the twist and fold

Of my confusions my absent presence,
Far away rivers amok in my continents.


-Unknown

Dooree

Pukarta hai khamoshiyon mein woh tera naam
Zikr karta hai woh tera tanhaaiyon mein har ek shaam

Dil ye kehta hai woh humko awaaz deta hai
Be-chain roohon ko hai naseeb kahan aaraam

Chod kar jo jaa raha hai tere shehar ko woh
Ummeed hai usko ki deedaar ho jaayega tera

Par ye bhee jaanta hai woh ki tu aa na paayegaa
Aakri waqt par aan padega koi zaroori kaam

Abhivyakti - 2

Baandh raha hoon parchaaiyon ko main kacche dhaagon mein
Dhool khaatee hui tasveeron ko dhoondh raha hoon andheri galiyaaron mein

Ukertaa hoon apnee soch aur apne sapnon ko behtee huee fizaaon mein
Kabhie dekhtaa hoon apna jeewan teri likhee kahaaniyon mein

Bikhartee hui zindagee ko samet-taa hoon ret ki tarha muththiyon mein
Run-jhun run-jhun ka sangeet suntaa hoon bacchon kee kilkaariyon mein

Pyasaa hee khada reh jaataa hoon main tip-tip karte saawaan mein
Mrigeechikaaon** ke peeche bhaagta rehtaa hoon sehraaon mein

Rang birangee is duniyaa mein mujhko bus do rang mile
Unhee rangon se rach letaa hoon rachnaaen kaagaz kee deewaaron mein

Let me walk when it rains ...

Let me walk when it rains ...

When I see you I wish the world could have been different
When I hear you talking I feel the world is changing
When I think of you I see I wish I was with you .. but I am not
So let me walk when it rains for I dont want someone see me cry

I want to be hugged by your arms
I want to feel ur face in my hands
I want to see you upclose ... but I can not
So let me walk when it rains for I dont want someone see me cry

I want to know how is it being loved and cared
I want to see what is like being happy and joyful
I want to do things like crazy ... but I will not
So let me walk when it rains for I dont want someone see me cry


I want to see this beautiful world with you around me
I want to hold your hands and walk that unknown territory
I want to say that I love you .. but I may not
So let me walk when it rains for I dont want someone see me cry

Like a tree of Pine

This happens to be my second poem after 'A house existed there', written in very same period:

Like a tree of Pine

Like a tree of Pine,
A wooer of mine,
Is waiting for me,
Along the sideways,
Of my life-path,
Like a tree of Pine,
A wooer of mine.

She is waiting for me,
To come and hold her hands,
She had been waiting,
For me for quite a long time,
And, will be there for a short lag of time,
Like a tree of Pine,
A wooer of mine.

She had been standing all alone,
In the lonely desert of my life,
A desert of success and failures,
A desert of love and emotions,
Like a tree of Pine,
A wooer of mine,
Is waiting for me to come.

-Aditya Rohatgi

A house existed there

This is my first poem I ever wrote when I was in 12th preparing for my board exams:

A house existed there

A house existed there,
In the corner of the village,
Near the flowing lake of water,
A house existed there.

Used for long
By an old man,
For living,
Rather,
Passing his time,
Waiting for death,
To come and grab his life,
Just like a tiger pouncing on an infant deer,
A house existed there.


Here, he used to have his kitchen,
There, he used to sleep,
These are the pieces of the cup,
In which he used to drink
His tea - sugar less - tea less,
These are the rags of his shirt,
He used to wear,
A house existed there.

Now, nature has turned it in ruins,
Now, the tatters haunted there,
A house existed there,
A house existed there,
A house existed there.

And I moved on ...

And I moved on ...

Leaving you behind .. along with
Your thoughts your memoirs behind
It is bit too much to do and ask for
But I want not to return back
For I moved on ...


-Aditya Rohatgi

'Objects in mirror are closer than they appear'

Dried tears beside those eyelids

Dried tears beside those eyelids

They say something - They tell you a story
Can you hear what they say - Can you understand them

They ask you questions - They answer yours
Can you answer the question they ask - Can you keep them quiet

Do you even know they are for you - Do you even care
They were the twinkle in those eyes and now they are dry

Tere ye geet teri ye baatein
Kabhie mujhko kheenchein
Kabhie mujhko baandhein
Shabdon ke jan jaal mein bhataq jaaoonga main

Mujhe in mein khone se bachalo

Ek maamoolee sa insaan hoon main
Naheen khada reh sakta in aandhiyon mein
Mujhe tabah hone se bachalo

Tujhko dekhtaa hoon
Tujhe chahtaa hoon
Tujhe hee khuda se har waqt maangtaa hoon
Meri dua ko aaj tum bhee apnaalo

Na jaane kab shaam ho jaaye
Aur din bikhar kar kho jaaye in waadiyon mein

When u see things r going haywire and r out of control - come to me and lets talk
When u r afraid of something - come to me and lets talk

Kya karoon main ki paas hoon tere aur door bhee ho jaana chahtaa hoon
Kabhie dost banna chahtaa thaa aaj dushman bhee ban jaana chahtaa hoon
Aye sangdil - kya kahoon tujhe ki tera sanam thaa kabhie aaj patthar ban jaana chahtaa hoon
Kabhie sochna ki kya the hum ek doosre ke waaste aur ab tere liye main kya ban jaana chahtaa hoon
Jeewan mein kabhie holi naheen kheli humne aur aaj rangon mein doob jaana chahtaa hoon

Woh Ladki ...

This is Jyoti's B'day gift on her demand.

Wo ladki thodi pagal see hai
Aur thodi pyaari bhee

Kabhie lage woh anjaanee see
Kabhie samajhdaar ban jaatee hai

Kabhie sochta hoon ki agar woh naheen hoti to kya hota
Yadi miltaa naheen isse to kitnaa kuch khotaa

Kabhie lagti bohot hee bholee see
Aur kabhi hai natkhat bhee
Thodi ye hai aur thodi wo bhee

Thoda sa ye zyadaa hai usmein
Aur wo thoda sa kuch kum

Wo ladki thodi pagli see hai
Aur thodi pyaari bhee

For my friend

Dear Friend (name with held on request). This is for you on your brilliant work - 'Bhool Jaayenge Tumhein'. The following words are true to their meaning.

Suntaa hoon jab kabhie is geet ko tere
Lafzon ko sunkar maine bhee pannon par kuch geet ukere

Bharamit

Doondh raha thaa shayad tumko
Naheen ... shayad koi aur thaa

Dekh raha the shayad tumko
Naheen ... shayad koi aur thaa

Shayad de thee aawaaz tumko
Naheen ... shayad koi aur thaa

Are haan mile the wahan par tumse
Naheen ... shayad koi aur thaa

Koi naheen thaa yaadon mein meri
Naheen ... shayad koi aur thaa

Abhi yaheen tha shayad koi
Arey naheen main naheen woh to koi aur thaa

Zaroorat

Dhoond kar laya hoon aaj teri yaadon ko us band kamre se
Jahan saalon pehle rakh kar bhool gaya thaa un haseen lamhon ko

Haan wohi kamra jahan par aksar cheezein chod dee jaati hain
Kyonki aaj unki zarorat naheen rehti, lekin shayad kaam aa jayein kabhie

Haan aaj mujhe zaroorat hai tumhari aur isliye us band kamre ko khola thaa maine
Chahta hoon ek mulaquaat aur chand lamhe tumhari zindagi ke

Kuch pal bitanaa chahta hoon aaj tumhare saath main
Aur phir wapas rakh doonga usi kamre mein kuch nayee yaadein jor kar

... Shayad phir zarorat pade kabhie

-Aditya Rohatgi

Jo ho gaya so accha hai

Num aankhon se usko kehte hue alvida maine
Aaj band kar diya hai apne jeewan ke ek panne ko

Us panne mein hain kuch khoobsoorat yaadein
Aur kaanton se lipte hue kuch lamhaat

Waheen par chod raha hoon kuch sawal tumhare waaste
Jinka jawab yadi na mile to accha hai

Jo meelon door rehte hue bhee paas thaa mere
Aaj mere paas hokar bhee rahe koson door to accha hai

Kuch ankahee baaton ko bhee chod kar aagaya hoon main
Ye mat poochna ki kyon khamosh reh gaya hoon main

Main naheen chahta ki tum phir palto us panne ko
Door ja raha hoon main ab door hee rahoon to accha hai

Kabhie miloge to anjaan ban jaoonga main
Aur tum soch lena ki jo ho gaya so accha hai
