Dhaltay Rishtey

tu mujhse ab nazre chupane lagi hain,
    yeh baat ab kuch satane si lagi hain;

aankhon mein kayi baar dekha hai teri,
    ek kaanch ki deewar ke peechay ab jatane lagi hain;

honton par toh koi lafz nai sajaati hain,
     pal palkon se barish ki nami churane lagi hain;

dil ke toofaan mein beh jaane ko aatur,
     apni tanhaiyon mein gootay lagane lagi hain;

zindagi ki khj mein hum haath thame chale they,
      ab dareechon mein chup-chap akelay jaane lagi hain;

pathjhad aayega, chala jayega, maloom tha mujhko,
      aandhi pairon ke chaap chupa degi nahi lagta tha;


       dil se mita dun teri aawaz ki khanak bhi chahti hun,
par sune se aakash mein  aks ab dhoondne lagi hun;

       na hoti main, na dil nam gamgeen hi hota
na tu hoti aur na hi yeh duniya.
 

I slowly wither in thine arms

To 
You,

Well, the last time I checked you were still human, or perhaps the last time was long gone. ;)


From,
Me

Cast As Women

Born out of tear,
bred in ashes,
lived in agony,
finally dead in peace.

Yes, I am a girl; a daughter; a sister; a mother; a wife; a friend; and the goddess of abundance, wealth, prosperity.

Yet, I am killed to satisfy the greed for abundance, sat ablaze for wealth, and snatched away from the cradle of life before I can breathe prosperity in someone's life.


 

Teri khushbo ka patah karti hain,Mujhpay ehsaan hawa karti hain

Meri galiyon mein aa kar mujhsay who,

Kaano mein kuch toh kehti hain;

Tere aane ki aahat who mujhe,

Tere aane se pehlay deti hain;

Teri khusboo ka patah karti hain,

Mujhpay ehsaan hawa karti hain;

Jab kabhi yaad mein aankhen bhare,

Chajje se maine jhaka hain;

Tere muskuratey chehre ka bhi,

Toh yehi jhalak si deti hain;

Teri khusbhoo ka patah deti hain,

Mujhpay ehsaan hawa karti hain;

Teri  mefooz  saayein se alag,

Jab kabhi bhi khud ko paaya hain;

Yeh hawa hi hai jo mujhko,

apne aagosh mein bhar leti hain;

teri khushboo ka patah deti hain,

mujhpay ehsaan hawa karti hain;

rotaon ko jab main aksar,

karwatey badlati rehti hun;

teri  tarah hi mujhko,

thapkiyan hawa yeh deti hain;

Teri khushboo ka patah deti hain,

Mujhpar ehsaan hawa karti  hain;

Jab chaand ,chandni ke sang,

Meri tanhayi ke raag  gaata hain;

Us chaand ko apne aavaran mein,

Yeh hawa hi toh dhak leti hain;

Teri khusboo ka patah deti hain,

Mujhpar ehsaan hawa karti hain;

I need my Bodhi Tree

Wrapped in desire and soaked in ecstasy, i fluttered my wings to soak and absorb more of this diabolically materialistic world. There is indeed no end to predilections for my asinine wishes as is there no end to something that has absolutely no corporeal existence.

                 I desire, I strife and I achieve but yet I desire for more. Again the cycle goes. Is this the earthly manifestation of the nebulous karmic cycle. To the unending and greedy desire I ask, "what do you seek", "what is that for which you will gladly forgo heaven?". I feel lost beneath the cravings of my heart that aches for indefinite and infinite. Series of desires are unbending as iron and fiery sparks that illuminates them every now and then is blinding me of my wisdom.

 

To camouflage it all, under the disguise of accordance, I put up a mask. But

the complacency is nothing but a facade for there couldn't be any last wish. Although if it so, how have people attained sublime happiness, nirvana, enlightenment and overridden lust, desire and passions.

Having perused my needs (or wants, if i can say) with a subtle disdain, i have concluded that I need my OWN Bodhi Tree.

kabhi..

kabhi kisi jharnay ka sotra hun,
toh kabhi kisi pahad par pracheen mandir.
    kabhi bachpan ki chulbuli kilkariyan,
    toh kabhi yovan ki aapar urja.
kabhi honton par saji ek sehas muskaan,
toh kabhi aaunsuon ki ladiyan hun
    kabhi aankhon ka soonapan,
    toh kabhi hriday mein uthi ek tees hun,
kabhi ann hun
toh kabhi bhookh hun.
   kabhi aakash mein udaane bharta hun,
   toh kabhi paani mein gotay lagata hun.
kabhi bhoomi ki god se janma hun,
toh kabhi vrakshon ki god mein khela hun.
   main kuch bhi nahi parantu sarvatra hun.
        main satya hun ek shashwat satya.
