Haal-e-dil!

This is probably my first Hurdu poetry which means Hindi mixed with Urdu. (I am not proficient in the latter). Hope you like it!

Rakhte the jinhe palko par,

Unhi ne ashq diye.

Sauda kiya jinse dil ka,

Maati mol baich,

Wo bhi chal diye.

Bikhre tukdo ko samaitna nahi aasaan

Ye dil hai, koi khel nahi meri jaan.

Kha-kha kar thokre, humne chalna tha seekha

Kismet bhi aisi,

Ke pehle kadam pe dum tod gayi hamari chah.

Sajde kiye humne chaaro pahar

Masjid par mullah ko mila ye paigaam

Unhe bhi thi humse mohobbat

Par nazrein hui naadaan.

Ikraar jab talak lab par pahuncha

Beet gaye jawani ke wo saal.

Roye wo bhi, roye hum bhi

Farq bas do maujon ka hua.

Jaha pyaar mein humko mili khudai

Unka Jashn-e-junoon ghut-ghut kar fanaa hua.

You and Me!

One of my earliest works...

You and me

We both see,

That you need some feisty treat.

Lot of work

Have you done

Now you get some cool retreat.

Move on, sing a song, go ahead

And do some dance.

Make your heart a bit strong.

Come with me and play along.

All you have, all you got, all you show is

You are strong.

Well I know, I know you

And I can tell you need some peace.

Just shake hands

You come to me

I’ll tell you, what is life,

How to live that king size,

What is fun?

Its when you and me

Talk about everything under the sun.

You and me are destiny

We should be together.

Together as friends,

Together as we

Together as a pair of cherries.

In all, you plus me makes we

We will rock,

We will talk

And we will do our moon walk.

From a mother to a Child!

Silent night passes by

With sleepy eyes and musky sighs.

Little heart beats make one

With the sound of the breezy skies

Let me take you there

Where golden chariots of dreams fly.

Do not be afraid of the demons in your head

Let me take you away, let me hold you tight.

Come, fall asleep in my warm embrace

While i sing you my mother's favorite lullaby.

Your little eyes fall on my face

As you drift to another world with million butterflies.

I hear the silent snores,

As in peace you lie.

Your cherubic face

Swell my heart with pride.

This wonderful bundle of joy

Could there be a bigger blessing in my life?

Sleep my baby angel, sleep tight.

As mama sings you another lullaby

Remembering her days, when she was a child.

I relive each memory of the days that have passed by

I still can't believe you're all mine

I couldn't be happier even if i tried.
