AGOG


AGOG
Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE

Closed or Locked? 
The doors are shut
What lies beyond? 
Curious and racing pulse
Would a knock suffice ? 
It may open in response
Should heed advice?
O to take a chance!
A pandemonium of thoughts
Of what could it be, what nots!!
The flood ensue
A search for clues
To stare at it?
Will break it down
And unravel the veiled truth
But what will it be worth?
And atrocious questions again
Brew in my agog brain!!

Kateya Karoon / My Web of Dreams


Kateya Karoon 
Translation of Lyrics by Irshad Kaamil (Movie: Rockstar by Imtiaz Ali)
Copyright © SHRAVANI MUKHERJEE

Threads of dreams i spin
Of cloudy cotton yarns of thoughts 
As the moonlight dims
The shines and stars i count on

The days are vested on you too
Will to die to live upto you!
Tangled in the circle of life
With your love, its now a soulful ride.

Feel my feet tapping in joy
In thy enchanting melody my soul sparkles and shines 
The madness is beyond measure
Reminds me my limits and lines

Likes of the great philosopher and poet Bulleh Shah,
Who lost himself for the love of life
I too have lost and shed my fears now,
As i stand tall to reach you through all the strides.
