showdown

The scorching fires seem to have flickered.
A wind blows from the west giving hope to the thirsty lands.
A winged soul carries a message as it soars towards the sun god.
Gaya looks up helplessly. Her parched eyes tell of their tale of sufferings.
Her wait has been far too long.
"But there's yet hope for you!" says a voice in the heavens.
"For a change is headed your way.."!











             Pure layers of white cottons spread across the skies
give hope of resuscitation to the withering life.
The clouds sway and wreathe as in to make tidings of what is to come.
The rule of the mighty fire lord will soon come to pass.
A behemoth power now approaches. A crack of thunder heard in the heavens shaken's up everything what lies beneath.
Zeus looks down upon his land. He takes pity of what has become of his own flesh.
"Fear not!" says a mighty cry. A siren is sounded not so far away,
 "For a change is now headed your way..!"

Ever Wandering..

the day my earth stood still

Writing feels new to me now. Guess I've been away for far too long.. 
Especially when I had already lost access to the blog that was my window I peeked into religiously almost everyday for over 10 months.

The feeling when you're looked upon as a stranger and not allowed to enter your own own house. Damn! it sucks. Tried for about a week to gain re-access. Clicked up on umpteen number of hyperlinks, but all in vain. Deleting my google account had deleted my blogger account as well. I wonder how and why did google connect the two. People searching for me landed up on my google account page and couldn't add me cause, they never found the link to my blogger account. Google Ac kept it hidden some place safe. Something had to be done about the beguiling google account. And so I did!

I deleted google ac and lost my blogger ac in bargain. It came as a shock when I tried signing in over and over again with various passwords. It settled in only after a day had passed. Setting up a new blog was on my priority list. But to my horror, with my blog I had lost all my back up content too! As most of it was saved up in the drafts section, I was left with nothing.
- And everything froze. everything came to a stand still, everything, umm..mm....to cut the long story short..

-i deleted google ac
-it deleted my blogger ac
-i tried signing in hundreds of times
-the page redirected me out of blogger every time

-I was away for over 15 days
- When I came back n tried to open a new ac
- I saw that I could sign back into my very own old dreaming wanderer ac.

what a relief!
n the rivers that had parted from the seas, were one with the ocean again.

-saved from the troubles of fumbling and flustering with blogger template designing.
-saved from typing down all my poems again.
-saved from losing my dear blogger mates.


So here I am
up and running again!

Have a nice day you'll..
God bless :)

चल दे

उड़ा दे इन आसुओं को हवा में,

अपने दर्द को अपनी ताक़त तू बनाले..

क्यों देखे मुढ़ के तू पीछे,

वो तो तेरा कल था, और कल तो फिर आयेगा..

ये सब लिखा था उसने बोहोत पहले,

रास्ता आगे का भी नज़र आयेगा फिर तुझे ..

क्यू मायूसी को बैठा हैं ओढे?

ज़िन्दगी के प्याले से उम्मीद के गरमा - गरम दो घूट तू पी ले.. 

उसकी आवाजों को तेरी धडकनों में सुनले,

कर अमल दिल पर,


बस चल दे..

वक़्त और हालात

वक़्त और हालात के गुलाम बन के रह गए कुछ लोग

हार मानकर बेबसी से, बन गए वो और भी कमज़ोर ..


भूल गए के इस जहां में जो आज हैं, वो कल नहीं

हर सुबह एक नयी ज़िन्दगी हैं, यहाँ हमेशा रात नहीं..


अगर हौसला हो दिल में समन्दरों की लहरों सा, जो हर दम लढती जाती हैं

और अगर भरोसा हो खुद पर फौलाद सा, फिर खुदा भी तोह उसी का साथी हैं.


तोह फिर क्यों कोई छुपे अपनी कमजोरी के पीछे?

और क्यों फिर कोई वक़्त और हालात का मोहताज बने?



कल फिर आयेगा सुनेहरा वक़्त,

कल फिर होंगे ये हालात खुशियों से भरे..



बस हो जज़्बा ज़िन्दगी जीने का आंखरी सांस तक,

और हो यकीन उस खुदा पर बेइन्तहा और बेझिझक..

तेरी बावरी

मीलों की  हैं दूरी
पर तेरी आँखों में, मैं अब तक हूँ डूबी..

हर लम्हा हैं मजबूरी
पर धडकने ये मेरी, सिर्फ तेरे ही लिए धड़क रही..

सपने सजे हैं कितने इन नैनों में...
ख्वाईशें दबी हैं कितनी इन साँसों में...

पर हैं यकीन इस दिल में,
एक दिन सच होंगे ये सपने!
ये आसूं भी होंगे ख़ुशी के झरने!

इतनी बातें जो रेह गयी थी अधूरी,
कल फिर ये ज़िन्दगी होगी तुझही से पूरी!

साथ ना पा सकी मैं तेरा इस जनम,
पर कल तेरे ही संघ फिर बढ़ेंगे मेरे कदम!


हां हैं यकीन दिल में मेरे,
मिलेंगे हम फिर उस जहां में!
दूर सबसे अपने ही मेहेक्ते आशियाँ में!



अब बस, हैं मीलों की दूरी..
और बढती ही रेहती हर पल मेरे दिल की बेचैनी

अब बस, हर लम्हा हैं मजबूरी..
और मुस्कुराती रेहती तेरे लिए मैं, बनके मैं तेरी बावरी..

lost..

Feels nice to be lost..

to notice things with deeper curiosity,
to find meaning in things I earlier did not see..
to walk on roads which never seemed existed,
to listen to the melody in the silence which grows ever more mystic..
to make the wrong turns which lead to the right ones,
to loose myself inorder to be found all over again..
to bask in the rays of epiphany,
to appreciate God for having all that I need..

N it feels nice to be lost..

to be allured by the wonders that surround me,
to admire the hidden miracles in every moment around me..
to see everyone through everyone's eyes,
to realise the oneness amidst us which lies..
to realise what matters most..
to listen to the sound of my own heartbeat..
to realise that I will never be lost
to realise that even if i am, he is always there looking down over me..


Hmm...
it feels nice to be lost.. 

Happy Holi :)

रंगबिरंगे चेहरों पर मुस्कान के गुब्बारे फूंत गए
सारी नफरतों को भुलाके दोस्ती के रंगों के दो घूँट पी लिए
रंगी हैं ज़मीन, रंगा ये आसमान..
मस्ती में तू भी रंग-जा
आज होली का हैं समा!

HAPPY HOLI to ALL :)

May be someday..

Standing on the edge,

I stare into a future filled with endless uncertainty.

Drawing me closer,
it's hard to fight this force of gravity.

Blinded from what lies beneath,
I hear the call of destiny.
I take a dive deep within myself,
searching for further clarity.

I try to realise what I truly seek,
what lies out there.
But the deeper I delve,
I begin to realise I am my own worst nightmare..

Enchained by my own thoughts and beliefs,
I struggle to take my step,
My courage shrinks to nothing
as I  grow sceptic of the road ahead..

May be there is more to learn,
more to understand where my truth really lies,
There definitely is a hope,
one day I will again be able to rise..

May be someday..

May be someday...

खाली कमरा

एक कमरा अब तक हैं खाली, मेरे दिल के किसी कोने में.

एक आरज़ू अब तक हैं बाकी, मेरे ज़हन के गेहरे अंधेरे में..

जहां अब तक बिखरा हैं उजाला, तुम्हारी रौशनी का,

जहा अब तक फैयली हैं खुशबू, तुम्हारी हसीं की..

खुशियों से भरी यादें तुम्हारी खेलती हैं यहाँ,

तुम्हारे रंगों से रंगी दीवारें अब तक हैं जवाँ..

ना चाहते हुए भी, इस कमरे के दरवाजों पर मैं दस्तक दे ही देता हूँ..

भुलाकर भी तुझको, मैं तुझसे फिरसे मिल ही लेता हूँ...



In English:


There's a room that's yet empty, somewhere in the corners of my heart..

There's a desire that's yet alive, somewhere in the darkness of my conscience..

Where scattered yet lie the rays of your brightness..

Where lingers yet the fragrance of your smiles..

Your memories full of happiness yet play around over here..

The walls yet alive, from the paint of your colours..

Unwillingly I yet land up knocking on the door..

Even after having forgotten you, yet again,
I meet you once more..
