Drifting

Falling freely through seas of emptiness. Tossing, turning, drifting, lifeless. At the speed of light. Lost all count of time. Seeping thro...

The Dark Knight Rises: Preface



Ludicrosity had ravaged the city.
Insanity had been pushed to its limits.

But it's been calm for a while since then.
Peace and order returned after a great battle and many sacrifices.

The loss of Dent has been grave.
His turn to the two-faced monster could not be seen as victory of the unjust.

Even though he turned against the very society he lived to protect.
The image of the Harry Dent had to be salvaged no matter what.

Dents delinquencies needed to be covered up at any cost.
The people needed to keep their belief in "goodness" intact.

The law desperately needed to stand clean in everyones eyes.
The City still needed to hold on to the dogma of a "White Knight".


So, I took the fall for him. 
I hid into the darkness once more for them.

His blames I took upon me.
And I became one of those very criminals I had fought and brought to justice.

I became the outlaw to protect that very law from shattering into pieces.
And lay hidden in my lair watching from here as the streets no longer needed me.


It's been calm for quite a while now. Peace and order have returned at a great price.



But a mysterious gas seeped through.
The heart grew numb. No pain it feels. No remorse it knows.


With every blow.
It spurts more venom.

The wind has picked up.
The air has gotten thicker.

An unwanted evil is about to be unleashed.
A threat lingers on the verge of eruption.



A storm is coming.


So I don this cape of shadows once more.
I must stand up to my calling.


Once again I must take the fall.


so I can
RISE
THE DARK KNIGHT

Words



Silent eyes gaze the world around.
From what they notice,
deep within they stir the conscience.

Where the blazing flames of emotions mold
all that is within the conscience into feelings.

And no barrier is strong enough
to hold the heavy fumes of feelings swirling rigorously within the furnace anymore.

Just a shadow of sorrow is enough to send ripples that turn to wrinkles across the visage.
A trickle of a tear is all that is needed to make the fumes erupt.
A ray of sunshine is enough to bring the poet out of his grave.
The beauty around screams out aloud enticing a glee from the eyes.
Light of love and attraction travels faster than light itself to light up the darkest corners of the heart.

The fumes of feelings vent out
vigorously taking form of words.

Led by continuous observation taking shape of learning and beliefs.
Where learning and beliefs become the architects of allegories.
Where allegories are infused with metaphors.
Where ironies coalesce into epigrams
Where feelings give birth to verses, rhymes and poetries.


And words set you free..

समंदर की बाहों में



ये कश्ती निकल तो पड़ी हैं,
इस समन्दर की बाहों में.

ढूँढती हैं ये जवाब कई सवालों के
क्या हैं सहीं?
क्या गलत?
ना जाने क्या आए राहों में.

बस  बेहते  रेहना हर दम,
इस समंदर की बाहों में.

उठेंगी लेहरे,
उड़ेंगे परिंदे,
आज़ादी की ओर ये ले चलेंगे.

दुनिया नई मिलेंगी इन राहो में,
होंगी गलतियाँ भी कुछ इस कश्ती से.

पर जो भूल हैं हुई, उस्से सीख लेना
और बुलंद कर अपना हौसला,
बस बहते रेहना.

आएंगे तूफ़ान कई,
छाएंगे काले बादल,
है तमन्ना हो जाए दोस्ती उनसे,
और उनसे करीब की हो बातें.


फिर ही तो होगी तसल्ली इस दिल की,
इस समंदर की बाहों में!

इश्वर

इश्वर मसजिद, मंदिर या चुर्च में नही मिलता.

वो मिलता हैं हमें जब हम  अच्छाई और प्यार को हमारे दिल में जगा देते हैं.

जब अच्छाई को हम इस जीवन की मंजिल मान कर उसकी राह पर चलते हैं.


तब इश्वर मिलता हैं हमें ,

अपने अच्हे कर्मो में,

अपने अच्हे बोल में,

और अपनी अच्छी सोंच में.


चाहे ये अच्छाई छोटी ही क्यों न हो ,

आखिर सागर तो भरता हैं बारिश की नन्ही बूंदों से!

इंसानियत

बनती - बिगडती रहेंगी ये दुनिया

मिलते - बिछड़ते  रहेंगे यहाँ लोग 

आता - जाता रहेगा ये पैसा 

बनते - टूटते रहेंगे यहाँ रिश्ते 



कुछ नहीं रेहना हैं यहाँ हमेशा के लिए 

मिट जाना हैं सब कुछ एक दिन 



पर ना मिटेंगा वो प्यार जो तुमने बाट़ा था.. 

ना ही मिटेंगे वो अच्छाई  के निशान

जो तुम दूसरों  के दिलों में छोड़ गए थे!




याद नहीं तुमको?

तुम आये थे यहाँ खाली हाथ

तुम्हे देने वाला तो वो था 

आज ज़रिया बनाया हैं उसने तुम्हे दूसरों के लिए 




तो जितना तुम दोंगे 

उतना ही तुमको वो और देंगा 

कुछ ऐसा ही दस्तूर उसकी मख्फिरत का हैं 

ना धन ना दौलत, बस अपने कर्मो के हिसाबों को

तुम्हे वापस लेके जाना हैं 




तो पल भर की इस ज़िन्दगी में

जितनी अच्छाई  कर सको, वो कर लो !

तिंका भर की ख़ुशी  भी तुम

दूसरों में बाँट सको तो , बाँट दो!




खो ना जाना तुम इस दुनिया के रंग बिरंगी मेले में 

माया हैं ये सब, 

मिट जानी हैं ये दुनिया, बस उसके एक ही इशारें में..





जब  इंसान  बनाया हैं उसने तुम्हे 

तो इंसानियत को तुम अपनीं पहचान बनाओ  

आये हो यहाँ, तो कुछ अच्छा कर के जाओ

जाना ही हैं कल, तो उसकी खूबसूरत कायनात को

तुम  कुछ  और हसीं बना के जाओ





और बनती - बिगडती तो रहेगी ये दुनिया 

और थमता - गुज़रता तो रहेगा ये वक़्त 




पर इक अटूट हिस्सा बनके रह जायेगी

उसकी कायनात का,

तुम्हारी इंसानियत!

humanity is such blasphemy


animalism within civilisation

insanity within religious boundaries

heartlessness within prayers

a doomed society within a blind and deaf country

where Gods are placed higher than love, care and humanity

where the cultures and traditions are valued higher than practical reality

where the people and their virtuous values are sacrificed in the name of religious sentiments

where religious preachings of peace, unity and equality are interpreted by it's disciples as the rule of egos, pride and the wealthy

forgotten are the true teachings of the glorious gods

far astray are the children of this land of the holy rivers

forbidden are the roads that lead towards the oneness of all

and they would say "blasphemous is this wanderer, for he knows nothing at all!"

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
giving 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 shakes up what lies beneath.
Zeus looks down upon his earth. 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 yor way..!"

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..
