In this moment
Found joy
Never ending love
Priceless memories
In this moment
I could live longer
I was not thinking of tommorrow
Nor the past
In this moment life seemed
Bigger than death
People more important
Than dead living souls
In this moment
I was happy
Not knowing what future holds for me !!!
If i could bare my soul
Would there be
Someone who could see it bare
Sometimes touch and heal my soul
The way i wanted it
See the scars and healed wounds
Deep inside a free living soul
There was beyond this body
A spirit and soul who wanted eternity
To last forever the soul seeked a soulmate
Would the soulmates last till eternity
Or loose each other while searching for bliss
I never knew what soulmates seeked
But lasting peace is what they got
Kuch laga aise Aaj
Ki waqt Jo guzra
Pal do pal ka mehmaan tha
Kuch der aur ruk jaata
To phir dil na dhoondha
Usmein guzre raat aur din
Kahin thum gaya hota
To yaad na aate itne Aaj
कुछ पुराना घर था
कुछ पुराणी दीवारे
कुछ पुरानी बातें
कुछ पुराणी यादें
बीतें हुए कुछ पल
कुछ शोर गुल
कुछ हसीँ पल
कुछ दर्द भी छुपा था
कभी तो नया सा लगता
जब कुछ पल लौटकर आतें
कुछ अलग सा कुछ अपना सा था वह घर
एक था वो झरोखा
देखने को जिससे मिलती
कभी कुछ नयी कभी कुछ पुरानी चीज़ें
कुछ रंगीन नज़ारे
कुछ हसीं पल
कभी थे अनजाने
कभी थे जाने पहचाने
यह जिंदगी का झरोखा था
कुछ बया न करने वाला
पल पल बदलता
और कहता यह हैं तुम्हारे देखने का नजरिया
We crossed paths
After a long time
Time has aged us
Strands of white hair
Sagging bodies
Wrinkles everywhere
We look almost identical
Yet time sets us apart
For him it has been a burdensome life
I had unburdened long back
We both talked of this and that
Only experiences set us apart
For the better parts it was bitter for one
And for one it was a content life
We caught up over cups of tea
Only to smile at beautiful memories we shared
Old friends for whom time had left its indelible mark
Young for those who could see the twinkle in their eyes
The glory of times never stood still
Some old buildings could tell a tale
Of love unrequited
Of wars fought among tribes
Of diseases and death
Of life and happiness
Of life and times
That were not our times
They could be just still old buildings not like time
But they had a story to tell and a soul to bare !
As I look into the clear blue sky
I see the mocking birds take flight
Together seamlessly in rhythm
At least a thousand wings
Spreading there wings together
They fluttered their way
Beyond the setting horizon
They took the flight together
Spreading love and unity
Atleast a thousand wings
Singing together about their freedom
to fly with wings
for that is all they could hear
Baateinnhumari kuch nayi purani
Kuch pal Aise beetein,
Baatein ankahi sahin
Salo baad mille the hum
Ek tha vo samay aur ek tha aaj
Umar aadhi guzar gayi
Par bateein Hui na khatam
Kuch gile the kuch shikwe the
Kuch gum the bahut si Khushi thi
Ke saathi purana humara Mila
Do baatein kar paye Dil halka kar paye !
One takes me to the future ,
One took me to the past ,
Between those memories and imagination
I live in the moment
The memories are crystal clear
As if they happened just yesterday
Only to bring me back to the moment
Where it all started
My imagination took me to places unknown
Since time never stood still
I oscilatted between the two
Sometimes my memory sometimes my imagination
Gave me the answers that I was looking for
