Santa

Santa


From among the smoke and fog,
suddenly a figure emerged,
dressed in red and white clothes,
with a red cap and a long beard.


His eyes were dazzled,
his mind puzzled.
Is really Santa standing before him?
at once  something broke his dream.


He rubbed his eyes ,
looked here and there,
but Santa was nowhere.
yet another dream,he was quick to realize


Few drops  of water from among the leaves,
that trickled down on his cheeks,
brought him back from land of dreams
made him feel "life is harder than it seems",


He had to hunt for a new job,
for last night  was not as he thought,
he was scolded for being late,
and was then thrown out
but he never bowed down to his fate.


His dream made him happy today,
Thought something special is coming his way
even the land of snow was looking bright,
he finally got a work ,to his delight.


He had to stand all day long,
from dusk to dawn,
to greet everyone ,give them gifts,
and sing the Christmas song .


Dressed like the man in his dreams,
he was much delighted,
for never he had thought,
what to him life had brought.


Whole day he made people smile,
He couldn't rest for a while,
though he was in much pain
for last night he had slept in open again.


He was happy with what he got in the end,
sweets, money enough to celebrate the year end
When he was about to go ,
a small child came, stretching his hand


He paused and for a moment he thought,
not to give him what he had got,
but then he shared whatever he had.
For sharing and loving is what his mother taught .


Today he was fully satisfied,
He learned what is celebration all about.
Christmas is for spreading love he realized.
He was now happier than he had thought.

Fear

Fear 

Its always there,inside you,

creates hindrance in whatever you do.

sitting quietly,but always ready to attack

by its sudden moves, you will be taken aback,

Just before the moments of success,

It will take over your mind,make it restless

It weakens your will,makes you clueless,

What is happening , even you wont be able to guess. 

It makes you suffer ,go through the pain

makes you feel all your efforts are in vain.

It will never let you be at ease,

makes your goal look farther than it is.

what and whom you hold so dear,

What if they are not near,

In our mind it raises such doubts,

It always plays with our thoughts.

Few words of encouragement and praise,

Weaken it, it may subside down,

but don't think it has gone .

It can be back in just few days.

In your heart, never let it grow,

or slowly it will make you hollow.

Soon it will be a giant.

Fear will rule you like a tyrant.

Eyes

When in extreme pleasure or pain,

When emotions are copious,

The lips wont express,they may seal

For words then become superfluous,

Don't be presumptuous,

Look into the deep eyes,

For they would never conceal,

Without words they would reveal,

What in depth of heart lies,
Going through intense agony 

or  riding the pleasure wheel.

Love ,hate,anger,despair
trust,lust or care

Read them carefully ,

They reflect what the heart feels.

आशियाना दिल का

 हमारे लिए जगह नहीं जिनके आशियाने में,

उनके लिए दिल में हमने प्यार-भरा आशियाना  बनाया ,

हसीन यादों का उसमे एक कमरा बनाया ,

बीतती है हर शाम उसी कमरे में,

जो मिलते नहीं कभी ,मिल लेती हूँ उन्हें सपने में 

उस आँगन में रोज़ सुनहरी धुप खिलती है,

शामे रंगीन सपनो से सजती हैं,

बड़ा खुबसूरत है दिल का आशियाना हमारा

जिसकी हर रात प्यार में ढलती हैं 

उन्हें अभी हमारे प्यार की कदर नहीं ,

और इस बात का भी हो रहा हमपर असर  नहीं ,

हम तो अपने हसीं ख्वाबों से उस आशियाने को सजा रहे हैं ,

जो आयेंगे नही उनके इंतज़ार में रात-दिन पलके बिछा रहे हैं .

प्यार-1

प्यार-1 

रेत का घर बनाया समंदर किनारे,

लहरों से उसे उजरना था हीं .
शीशे-सा दिल हमारा और इश्क हुआ पत्थर से ,

टूट कर बिखरना तो था हीं .
काटों का दामन जो थामा था हमने,

सीने में उन्हें चुभना था हीं .
बुलबुलों-से नाजुक ख्वाब थे हमारे,

पल भर में ख़त्म तो  होना था हीं.

ज़िंदगी जो रौशन हुई थी तेरे प्यार से ,

जुदाई के हवाओं से उसे बुझना था हीं .
जोड़ा था नाता उनसे जो रस्मों की जंजीरों से बंधे हैं,

प्यार की बंदिशों को तो टूटना था हीं .
यादें बचीं है जो तेरे प्यार की,

उनमे खोये रहते हैं हम कहीं .
एक शाम भी यूँ तड़प कर गुजारना है मुश्किल .

जाने कैसे कटेगी तनहाइयों में ये ज़िन्दगी.

अंदाज़-ए-इश्क

अंदाज़-ए-इश्क 

दिल में चुपके से बस जाता है,

आँखों से छुपकर झाँकता है वो,

अंदाज़-ए-इश्क कुछ ऐसा हीं  होता है.

बस जुबाँ पर आने से कतराता है.

कभी दिल में शोर मचाता है,

कभी उसे हीं विरान कर जाता है,

अंदाज़-ए-इश्क कुछ ऐसा हीं  होता है.

खुद मचलता है ,दुसरे पल में संभलता है.

धीरे-धीरे दबे पाँव  आता है,

संग ख्ह्वाहिशों का कारवां लाता है,

अंदाज़-ए-इश्क कुछ ऐसा हीं  होता है.

हर पल नए ख्वाबों को संजोता है.

जिसे अपना आशियाना बनाता है,

उस दिल के कभी टुकड़े कर जाता है,

अंदाज़-ए-इश्क कुछ ऐसा हीं होता है.

दर्द दे या ख़ुशी, लब्ज़ों में न वो बयाँ होता है.

हम  किस दर्द में जीं रहें ,हमदर्द को खबर नहीं  ,

हमारे आंसुओं का भी होता अब उनपे असर नहीं .

राह उनकी देखती हैं अब भी ये आँखें,

हम राह में हैं अकेले, हमराह संग राह में नहीं.

दो कदम भी जो हमारे साथ नहीं चल सकते .

उन्हीं के यादों में हम हैं हर पल जलते,

हैं इस दिल को शायद अब भी कोई आस,

जो दूर गये हैं हमसे, कभी तो आयेंगे पास.

शायद उन्हें हमारे प्यार की कदर नहीं,

या कहीं हम में ही सब्र नहीं,

इस दिल को तो  अभी नहीं होता ये यकीं,

हमसफ़र सफ़र में यूँ छोड़ चल देंगे कहीं .

Can that stop me from loving you?

I  know you wont be mine,  

Its only in my dreams ,that 

with you I can dine

 Should that stop me from thinking about you?

Can that stop me from dreaming about you?

I know you are not near ,

not today ,nor in days to come,

to stand beside me when in fear ,

or to wipe my tear,

Should that stop my eyes from closing for you in prayer?

Can that stop me from loving you?

I know you wont be there,

to listen to my foolish talk,

even my cry you wont hear

but your memories ,still I hold so dear.

Should that stop my ears wishing to hear your voice,

But do have I another choice?

Distance may keep us apart,

but from my memories,my thoughts , 

you'll never depart,

You are and will  always be ,

a nondetachable part, 

of my soul.,be in my heart.

Nothing can stop me from loving you.
