I Tried . . .

  Last night I had a dream,
  Full of visions and a deep scream,
A cry to attain something on top,
It was a scar, yet to be cropped.

Then I boggled a little on future,
Pondering over matter still to be nurtured.
It was a dream worth acquiring,
Full of obstacles yet inspiring.

Life has taught me to move on in every condition
Days and nights of tough tasks
Commencing the wars of winning from your own self,
Assiduous in nature, yet acting as a stealth.

The more I move forward,
I abandon the word coward
On the way to give an existence to my vision,
With loaded passion and unveiled precision.

I had taken a step forward to make "all" come true,
With million perspectives yet just a glorious view

Overtime, I was told, that failing was my work,
Fretting and dancing back upon was also one of my chores,
However, I was belittle of the failure encountered,
But there was just one gesture that was nobly uttered,

I tried ,
At least the steps count than not climbing at all.. I tried !!

Itefaaq . . ( Azalee )

   Chale the hum raah banane , 
   Ruke to has diye,
rakhni thi yaadein sirhaane,
leke dukh chal diye

Kabhi kabhi itefaq se mile,
jannat se bhi mulaakatein hui,
Samundar par baethe the rishte banane,
Dilbar se aisi baatein hui


Tham gaye kadam sunke aarzoo tumhari,
Waqt tha kam,
Mannatein thi adhuri,
Socha kar lenge tamanna puri,
 mulaakatein na fir hui zaruri

Ek raah thi, do chah thi,
soch soch tha dil ghabraya,
sarhad paar bhi tha ajnabi
intezaar karta dar pe aaya


Haan kar sang hum chal diye uske,
kitno ke the dil toote
sapne to sajake dekhe the
itefaaq se mil liye


Baethe chuppi rahi zuban pe
Bolkar bhi na bolein,
Ishaare karein nazron se kuch
Tab bhi dil na kholein,


Chalte chalte raah bhi bani,
sapne bhi hue pure,
Han kar sang hum chal diye uske,
Tab bhi dil na kholein,.


Sarhad paar . . . Intezaar raha

Ye nazakhat . . .

   

Is nazakhat se dekha humne unhe
   Ke wo sharma gaye,
Pyaar bhari nazron se dekha humne unhe,
Ke wo itraa gaye.

Khuli hawa me sapne dekha karte the,
Raet par sang sang chala karte the,
Palat kar dekha, to woh dikhe nahi,
Manzilon ki raah me sapne dekha karte the.

Wo kehte the,
ke woh reh lenge bina humare,
Fir bhi Pyaar ka izhaar kiya karte the,
Pal pal betaab rehte the dono,
Bina suney baatein jaan liya karte the.

Milne ka to aasra hi na tha,
Jab chahe bana kar pyaar kar liya karte the,
Dil to dhadakta tha sirf ek ke liye,
Samjha kar ye unhe mana liya karte the,

Chaha hai sirf unhi ko,
Vishvas ye unhe karwane lagte the,
Dil se dil ka nata purana tha,
Aankhon se ye seekhaya karte the,

Aaj bhi yahi lagta hai humein,
Ke wo laut aayenge wapis,
Mohabbat kya cheez hai,
Samjhna unhe padega,
Hum to bas nazron se taaruf kiya karte the . . 


Ye nazakhat, uff ye nazakhat unki . . . .
