Phir aa gaya woh lamha....

Phir aa gaya woh lamha,

Jab aane' waale' unn kai lamhon ka besabri se' intezaar hone' lagaa.

Kya woh lamhe' inn beete' hue' lamhon se' behatar (better) honge'?

Kya unmein taqdeer ka koi haseen paigham hoga?

Yeh sochkar mere' zehen mein kuch halchal hone' lagaa.

Shikayat nahi kuch khaas unn beete' hue' lamhon se',

Phir kyon mujhe' ab fikar yoonhi hone' lagaa?

Kuch hi pal mein Kisi jashn mein hum Shareeq honge',

Jahaan jaam ke' pyalon ke saath saath kai dil bhi zaroor milenge',

Iss mahaul ka mujhe' besabri se intezaar hone' lagaa.

Aane' waale' saal shayad mein kuch mushkilon ka saamna ho,

Kuch mayoosi bhi ho,

Magar Zindagi ke' iss dastoor se' kyon darr lagne lagaa?

Aaj toh humare' liye' jaam ka nasha kuch aur hi hoga,

Paani ya soda nahi usme' kuch kamaal karne' ka junoon mila hoga.

Aise' pyala e jaam ke' nashe' ke' zariye' aane' waale' saal ka humein joshile' andaaz se intezaar hoga

.

Soch hi soch mein doob kar yeh bhool gaya

Soch hi soch mein doob kar yeh bhool gaya,

Apni wajood (identity) kya hai.

Khyalon ke' uss sheher mein chalte' chalte',

Yeh bhool gaya,

Ke' haqiqat bhi koi cheez hai.

Kisi anjaan manzil ko uss sheher mein haasil kar,

Yeh bhool gaya,

Ke' apni aukaat kya hai.

Shayad kisi bhi waqt,

Woh soch toot jaye',

Aur khayalon ka woh sheher ek a ek nazron se' dooor jaye',

Iski ab kya fikar hai?

Iss waqt toh hum uss sheher mein kisi anjaan manzil ke' maze' le rahe' hain,

Ab aage' jo hoga use' hone' dein,

Taqdeer ke' faisle' ko mujhe' kya har kisi ko kabool karna hi hai.

Nikle' the' hum kisi mandir Ya masjid ki talaash mein..

Nikle' the' hum kisi mandir Ya masjid ki talaash mein,

Iraada toh tha ibaadat ka.

Hum uss ibaadat ki jagah ki talaash mein nikal pade',

Magar raah mein kisi majnu ka mazar mila.

Naa jaane kya hua mujhe',

Hum waanhi sajda kar baithe'.

Yeh uss Parvar digar ka karishma kaho Ya meri diwangi,

Hum uss ishq ke uss masiha ko Parvar digaar ka doosra naam samajh baithe'

Diwali ka mahaul e jashn...

    Diwali ka mahaul-e-jashn,

Jahan dekho, tarah tarah ki mehfilein saji hain.

Kuch toh sirf jaam ke' pyalon ke' maze' le' rahe' hain,

Aur kuch jaam ke' saath saath patton (cards) mein apni apni muqaddar dhoond rahe' hain.

Patte' bhi mehfilon mein alagh hi raunaq sajaa rahe' hain,

Kya baat hai,

Kuch jeet mein toh zaroor magar kuch haar mein bhi maze' le' rahe' hain.

Humne' toh kai saal pehle' hi patton ko choona hi chorr diya,

Iss waqt toh hum kisi aziz ke' yahaan sirf nazaaron ke' aur jaam ke' maze' le' rahe' hain.

Kehte' hain jue' (gambling) se' dooor raho,

Magar Diwali ke' iss mubarak mauke' par kuch jua khela toh koi kayamat toh nahi,

Hum toh roz hi har kadam par ek nahi kai jue' khelte' hi rehte' hain.

All reacti

Ashiq mizaaz zaroor hoon...

Ashiq mizaaz zaroor hoon,

Magar phir bhi halaat se yoonhi haar jaata hoon.

Har din kisi naye josh se zindagi ka saamna karta hoon

Magar agle pal naa jaane kis musibat ka saamna karta hoon.

Mizaaz toh jaise humare isharon ka ghulam hai,

Phir bhi naa chahte hue bhi halaat ka ghulami karta hoon.

Zindagi ka rivaaz se hairan saa hoon,

Halaat mein mithas (sweetness) ke saath kuch karvahat (bitterness) bhi shamil hai,

Isi rivaaz ko apni zindagi ka dastoor samajh kar har pal kisi ashiq ki tarah guzarta hoon.

Barsaat ne toh saara mahaul jaise beimaan kar diya....

Barsaat ne toh saara mahaul jaise beimaan kar diya,

Jaam ke pyale ki waise koi zaroorat toh nahi

Magar phir bhi aaj mood yoonhi kar aaya.

Uss pyale ne toh mujhme kai bhoole hue armaanon ko taaza kar diya,

Bahut koshishon ke baad bhi main khud par kaboo na paa saka,

Shayad aaj woh mood yoonhi kar aaya.

Barsaat aur jaam ke beech toh barson purana yaarana hai,

Ek ke peeche doosre ki naubat aa hi jaata hai,

Yeh mera vehem hai ya phir aaj mera aisa mood yoonhi kar aaya?

Kyon nahi main bhi apni umar ko bhool kar kuch mauj mastiyon mein kho jaaon?

Iss soch mein kuch dum bhi hai ya phir aaj mera mood yoonhi kar aaya?

Maaro goli aise waise junoon ko,

Kya ho jaiga inn sochon mein doob kar?

Haqiqat toh Yeh hai ke aaj mera aisa mood yoonhi kar aaya.

Celebrations are up in the air...

Celebrations are up in the air,

Our Tricolour flies high not only from the ramparts of Red Fort but in millions of localities,

Was it not the solemn occasion to cherish this hard earned freedom ?

Lump in my throat and goose bumps all over as our Tricolour is hoisted and National Anthem is being sung,

Each word is filled with a unique expression of patriotism,

Was it not the time to salute these icons of our Nationhood ?

Today's newspaper carries news about yet another young brave-heart making the supreme sacrifice on line of duty,

He too had loved ones back home,

Is it too much for each one of us to salute this brave-heart and shed a tear for his loved ones back home?

Tomorrow will be another day,

Lives have to carry on by confronting new challenges and enduring countless struggles,

Is it not proper to be grateful to our Nation and such countless martyrs, for such an enabling environment, to effectively meet our challenges and overcoming our struggles ?
