You still live in me....

I still hear your voice. I still miss your hands.
Today again I live withing your traces.
I still see you. I still feel your warmth.
Today again I live within the time spent with you.
In some stranger who passes by.
In leaves that fall and dance in the wind.
In the evening wind that touches my cheek.
You are in everything I see, hear and feel.
How about you ? How about you ?
Do you feel the same way ? How about you ?
I still feel you.
Like this, even at the moment when I'm singing this song.

Bansuri (The flute)

Aaj jab bansuri bajayi
To teri hi dhun aayi

Aisa laga jaise tere hothon ne suron ko chu liya
Saath mera kam jyada tera diya
Maine aankhein band ki to tu hi najar aayi
Aur us waqt ki yaad aayi

Sochata hoon kab tak chalegi ye jindagi
Bina tere tanha aur maayush si....

Her name

Whenever I see her name
it brings forth memories unbound
and i long when the physique is not found

it seems i have lost all the drives
life seems devoid of purposes
equally treating days and nights
i question the survival....

all the strength seems to be lost
and i just wait for the moments to be over
for 'the moments' to be over.......

Introspection

Bura jo dekhna mein chala,
Bura na miliya koi,
Jo dil khojo apna,
Mujhsa bura na koi.

-- Kabir ke dohe

English version:

When I went out to find bad/ evil
I couldn't find anyone
when i searched my heart
i found that there was nobody as bad/ evil as me!!

Clinging will remain

In the busiest of the places,
During darkest of the nights and sunniest of the days,
I couldn't let go of her thoughts,

Rather I always found her,
Close by, nearer than ever,
As if she was caressing me,
With her thoughts & smiles,

Never I think will come the day,
Devoid of her thoughts,
Clinging will remain,
Making me suffer,

Buddha might smile yet he may realize,
Bearing fruits of the karmas and having to suffer,
Will create compassion and make me see her everywhere,
She will always be part of my persona
Guiding me to may be salvation.....

Missing suddenly

Suddenly i missed you very much
didn't realise what was the cause
thought a lot about you
leaving not even things few
hoping you are fine
and not having troubles even divine
wishing you all the good I can
and asking troubles to be mine
i feel love indescribable
transcendental & imperishable

संगमरमर की इबारत से,
जो लिखी है तुमने वो कविता,
युग बीत गए बीतीं सदियाँ,
पर आज भी है वह सुन्दरता
