...A person, whom I call my SISTER

The shadow of a friend’s fare,
The smile of utter care,
Partner in umpteen pillow fights,
Holding hands in childhood sights,
Argues for small chocolates store,
Making room to live from the chore,
My life secret book’s reader,
An all time pain healer,
That’s a reflection of my mother,
A person, whom I call my SISTER.

-Tushar

All is there but dark...

All is there but dark,
The life as the night;
No smile no little spark,
Stars lost with the light;

I have no one but not alone,
no love no inner struggling war;
no desires no smiling clone,
emptiness till the ended far;

afraid of the crawling me,
want to fly , no wings to be free;
frightened for new and to see,
the future , a failure to be;

All is there but dark,
The life as the night;
No smile no little spark,
Stars lost with the light;

the sky is not dark ...

the sky is not dark
not even in the night
this is the city you see
glowing with neon light
the stars are faded or gone
artificiality glowing bright
there is no sleep no dreams
drums and beats sounds right
no flowing leaves with wind
finding inner self fight
what we seek what we hope
just words may be or might
so much speed on highway
like life will end only tonight
vodka beer rum and whisky
all taken for the lost delight
days are sleepy, night is lost
life in fright, no peace in sight
the sky is not dark
not even in the night

...kuch yun hoti

Tum agar saath hote to baat kuch yun hoti
Jahan rangeen fiza bahar kuch yun hoti
(fiza : environment )

Dard-e-daman lahrayega to gazab hoga
Kabhi teri kabhie zamane ki inayat yun hoti

sham-e-zindagi ke sahil pe bas yun baitha hoga
Justuzu teri hijra-e-hiwda main kaid yun hoti
(Sham-e-zindagi : evening of life , sahil : shore ,Justuzu: desires , hijra-e-hiwda: heart with pain of separation )

Kabhie saath dostoon ka ronake mehfil hoga
Kabr par kuch duyaan saath bas yun hoti

Tum agar saath hote to baath kuch yun hoti
Jahan rangeen fiza bahar kuch yun hoti

For Goku...

This for Goku (my junior nephew, born on 24th Aug 2008, On janamasthmi , day celebrated as birth of Lord Krishna. For reference in context for this, Adee is Goku's elder brother)
These lines are based on famous folk song from Rajasthan, kesariya balma padharoo mhare desh ...
My love for Adee and Goku ...
*************************************************************************************
Kesariya Kanha padharoo mhare desh …

Sundar kaya komal maan paayoo Adee sa bhesh
…padharoo mhare desh
Maiya aanokkee daoo Adee, ladaloo aisa yeh parivesh
…padharoo mhare desh
Choota Goku bhaiya Adee pyaroo yeh sandesh
…padharoo mhare desh
Sang khelenge sang jhoomege adee-goku, desh ya videsh
…padharoo mhare desh
Pyaari muskaan layo sang, bholo sab jagat dwesh
…padharoo mhare desh
Kesariya Kanha padharoo mhare desh …

vidaai...

Kuch dard hai tumhaare jaane se
Kuch haans rahe hai moti aakhon main
Dua ubharti hai har saans har pal se
Payo khusi zindagi ki har rah main
Waqt bahoot pyara bita hai tumse
Paya hai ek naya pariwar tum main


Kuch yaad ki tasveer saath le jate hoon
Ek pyaar ka bandhan baadhe jate hoon
Pal chootte hai kahke phir milta hoon
Arre oh ! yaar tumse kab bichadta hoon

-Tushar

khushi...?

dekhta hooon duniya main itne sadhu-saache hai log,
phir kyon aapne dard ko unki haansi main khoo nahin pata
kyon nahin khilta, kyon jaate nahin jalan ka yeh rog
har phool to khil raha hai bas ek indradhanush nahin bana pata
-Kabir

Khawab bhi yun hai haqueqat...

Version:2
Khawab bhi yun hai haqueqat
Tum bhi aur haseen saath bhi

Woh mehfil badi hai roonak
Jaam bhi saath madhoosi bhi


Woh shaam roomani tanha hai
Jaagti raat bhi lagti badi pyaari bhi

Woh khamoshi kuch hai kehti
Zulf khuli bhi simti baahen bhi

Lab surkh hai sahme sahme
Paas tu bhi , teri tishnagi bhi
**************************
Version:1
Khawab bhi haqueqat hai
Tum hoon haseen saath hai

Woh khamoshi bhi bolti hai
Zulf khuli simti baahen hai

Woh lab bhi sahme hai
Paas tu, teri tishnagi hai

Soocho Soocho...

Soocho soocho
Sooch ke dekho
Sapnoo ke shahar
Main ghar ko dekho
Neela hi gagan
Aapni hi dharti
Par udta
Bawre man ko dekho

Soocho soocho
Sooch ke dekho
Aapne liye bhi
Sawan hai barso
Khusi aayi
Saja ke rakho
Khilkhila ke
Bas hasdo
-Tushar

Unique

People always say that, " I am unique".
I know they just politely mean, 'we don't really understand you'.
Who cares ?
I too myself find uniqueness all around all the time.
-Tushar

I want to...

I am tired of my body
tired of my soul
I want to sleep
but no dreams of yours

I am tired of the talks
tired of the walks
I want to hold
but no thought of yours

I am tired of me
tired of the world
I want to love, all mine
but no condition of yours
-Tushar

tere liye

Tu khush hai wahan jahan hai tu,
Isse kuch to hota hai dil ka dard kam;
Kya yaad utna nahin aata mujhe ab tu,
Ya tere liye tujhe hi bhula baithe hum;
-Tushar

Is it so wrong...

Is it so wrong to feel,
Is it so bad to weep,
To say with water,
how broken you are,
To express how happy you were,
To just say how lonely you will be,
I don't want to hold past back,
but give me time to say final good-bye,
just little time to say this bye,
embraced in our smile...
-Tushar

Kuch khayal...

Aangdaaye le subhah ne yohi bas,
khawab ka parda hata haqueqat ka aaina dekh liya;
paya apna hi chehra phir aaj ek nayi jung ki tayari karta hua.
********************************************************
Woh ja rahe hai nayi zindagi ke raaste,
kaash mud kar humse bhi pooche,
arre yaar tum bhi saath chalo...
**********************************************************
Tere jaane ko kaise kah do jaana
Tere na hone ko kaise kah do bhichadna
Tu nahin to kya hua
Teri in yaadoon ko bhala hum se kaun cheen payega
**********************************************************

प्यार की जुबां

कोई मुझे बताये प्यार की जुबां क्या है ?
जो ग़ालिब ने कहा या मिहिर ने लिखा
मुझ नादाँ शायर के लिए तो बस
मेरे यार के साथ की खामोशी ही कातिल है

एक रिश्ता था जो ...

एक रिश्ता था जो
पीछे छूटा है वो
कहाँ गई मंजीलें
खो गए रास्ते

एक सपना था जो
बुना मिलके था वो
छूटी बाहों की गली
मिली न कोई कलि

एक कहानी थी जो
चाहत से बुनी थी वो
लफ्ज़ का चेहरा नहीं
वादें खो गए यहीं

एक साथ था जो
हाथ थामता था वो
बाहें पास बुलाती है
अकेले अब घबराटी है

एक खुशी थी जो
पल पल हसाती थी वो
जागती रात है अब
सूने दिन है अब
-तुषार

From Son to Mother

You laugh with my laughter
You cry with my tear
You wait for my arrival
You sink with my fear
You walk with my steps
You feel the pain I bear
You sleep with my tiredness
You wake with my dreams so clear
You know the hunger of my stomach
You are satiated as I eat pear
You long for me when far
You are rejoiced when I come near
You hold me with your warmth
You always embrace, saying worries not for you dear
You are the soul I am the body
You are my MOTHER, I your son here

Intezaar...

kya khatam hoga yeh intezaar
tere aane ke baad?
phir aayega yeh hi intezaar
tere jaane ke baad!
kya jee payege phir is intezaar
ke saath...
tere chale jaane ke baad
tere hi intezaar ke saath
-Tushar

you sleep to be alone

To be lone in crowd of faces known,
to smile with tears heart sinking down,
To gather the broken you,
To crave that you are wanted,
before you sleep to be alone... (forever)

kuch pal tere saath aur bita lo to soocho

kuch pal tere saath aur bita lo to soocho
kal beechedge, aaj yahi beetha lo to soocho

tere sirhane ki malmal se haansi payi hai
baandh hootoon ki daastan bana lo to soocho

tere saath waqt hawa sa chalta hai
udti fiza ko apna bana lo to soocho

garm saansein ab bhi hai darmiyaan
sard aahoon ke dayre bana lo to sooscho

kuch pal tere saath aur bita lo to soocho
kal beechedge, aaj yahi beetha lo to soocho
