An Afterthought...

Sometimes, I sit back and wonder
What would have my life been
Had I chosen a different path
What difference would it mean

Not that I dislike this road                                           
Or ain't happy walking on
Its just a thought, an afterthought
That stays inside and lingers on


Well I do smile
And yes, I laugh
Oh my! I live
My life and a half

No my friend, I don't complain
I have all things this world can give
Just a dearth of something, I feel
A meaning, perhaps, a meaning to live

I know not where I would have been
Had I chosen to chase my wraith
Its just a wish, an afterwish
That keeps coming and grows every breath

That I would have been blitheful
I cannot for sure this say
One thing, but I surely could
I made my choices and lived my way!

The Lovely Love

We come, we stay
We live, we leave
And with us all the beautiful things
But there shall remain always alive
The lovely love
Its the infinity drive!


We dusk and dawn
We wax and wane
We live through all
Pleasures and pain

We live our lives
We change, we evolve
Then leave our lives
We stir, we dissolve

But there shall remain always alive
The lovely love
Its the infinity drive!

Not you, not I are always as good
We cheat, we hurt, we sometimes swine
Somewhere between dilute our souls
We lose our lustre, we lose our shine

Still there shall remain always alive
The lovely love
Its the infinity drive!

Sapne

टिमटिमाती  आँखों  में

झिलमिल  झिलमिल  तारे  हैं 

सपने  हैं  या  तारे  हैं 

ये  तो  ना  पहचानूँ  मैं 

शायद  मेरे  सपने  हैं 

तारों  जैसे  चमकते  हैं 

उनकी  तरह  अनगिनत  नहीं  

कुछ  गिने  चुने  से  सपने  हैं 

बावरे  से ख्वाब  हैं 

पागलों  सी  चाहतें 

इत  उत  भागे  मन  मेरा 

बेचैन  है  सोते  जागते 

कैसी  दिल  की  उमंगें  हैं 

बेकाबू  सी  ये  दौड़ती  हैं 

रोकूँ  इनको  या  संग  बह  जाऊं 

ये  भी  तो  ना  जानूँ   मैं 

कुछ  सपने  तुम  भी  बुन  लो                                    

उनमें  फिर  जीवन  भर  दो 

पंख  लगाके  देखो  ज़रा 

उनको  फिर  तुम  उड़  लेने  दो 

माना  आँखों  की  सीमा  है 

सपनों  की  पर  सरहद  नहीं 

उस  बेसरहद  सी  सरहद  पर 

कभी  तुमसे  मिलेंगे  हम 

कुछ  मेरे  सपने  तुम  ले  लो 

कुछ  तुम्हारे  मैं  जी  लूँ 

हम  हर  दिन  हर  पल  यूँ  जीएँ 

की  हर  पल  ज़िन्दगी  लगे
