Chalna to hai umar-bhar k liye...

Par kahaan thheherte hain Saahil ik pal k bhi liye?

Intezaar hain unka, dundenge unhe zindagi k har mod pe

Yakeen hai mil jaayenge mere saanware ek din humein

Fake smile, appearing strong

Fragile, breaking down every moment

If only, silence was loud

Lost, broken and numb

Was slumbering in my painted dreams

And you woke me up

When you said, you’ve to go…

My heart skipped a beat

A heavy weight dropped in there

And all I wanna do, is shed the pain off

To open up to you with the truth

That I don’t want you to leave

Stay! Here with me at my side

Beyond all bounds of time

With my fancy rhymes

Wanted to wipe away all your worries,

Walk with you to your goals

But you say, you gotta go away

To live your dreams, with people you love

So fly away, be happy

Be blessed with all love and success you wished

Will pine, will cry, will perish

Will always remember ...

All our moments together, 

Will always cherish

Your graces and selfless support, my treasure

Will build myself again,  never to be broken 

Not anymore ever again!!!

Grace

[ An English Translation of the ClassicSong: 

"Ehsaan tera hoga" 

by Hasrat Jaipuri and Anand Bakshi]

A favour i ask of thee

To speak the words my heart feel

In amor and awe of you

Let me reside in your colored dreams

The cheers and laughs i've learnt from thee

Tears i’ll cry at your pains and whims

Nay, lament not my lacrymosa

They tumble like the river downhill

Thou art thine creator, as well the destroyer

Even with last breath, will shower my blesses

The westerly will whisper my wish

Cupid struck remorse is one sweet fetish

Teardrops

A cascade of tears

That she had forsaken

Without any reason or rhyme

Weirdly for long she didn’t cry

Cause she was a big girl now!

A pain... she was hurt inside

A seed growing with time

Away from people she loves

Away from the place she knew

Suppressing her fears and contempt

In search of her quests

To win her battles and fears

To unravel myth and live the reality

To fall in love with the riddle called life

To find herself, a niche and a identity

With the precious pearls on her cheeks

Feels like she has unburdened her soul

A weight dropped in the fathoms

Yet she keeps missing her home

Not yet strong as she appears to be 

My Shadow

My Shadow

Paced behind

Never to shine bright

Seems dark, but...

Appears only in light

Has many myriads of mood

In all shapes and form looms

A loyal follower, silently beside

Despite all odds and stride

There in sad solitude

Even when there happy rays of hope

My silhouette, my shadow

Will be there with me always, i know

Only when its grim black

And no sun will shine

Will it leave me

In search of a luminous soul
