मत ढूँढ मरने के बहाने, सुंदर भविष्य खड़ा है सिराहने, यूँ बैठा शून्य में न तक, तुझे भी जीने का है पूरा हक़, असीमित सम्भावनाएँ हैं खड़ी पंख पसारे, फिर क्यों ढूँढता है तूँ कमज़ोर सहारे? उठ खड़ा हो, अपने सपनों को दे गति, इस्तेमाल कर जो ईश्वर ने दी है मति! घुप अंधेरे मेंContinue reading “अतुल्य है तूँ, कर दिखा कुछ अनोखा!”

An Untitled Poem
We know that some day all this is to end, Still our silly ways we do not mend! Prisoners to our ego, we so often go wrong, When our life could have been a lark and a song! With our monumental follies we mess it up big time When the short interval between birth andContinue reading “An Untitled Poem”
A Prayer to Lord Krishna
Our dark desires make us play with fire, Even then of them we never tire! They make us do things brutish and weird, In the darkness of our minds are they reared! We pander to our darker selves with pleasure, We feed our carnal longings at leisure! Insidiously do they spread their tentacles through ourContinue reading “A Prayer to Lord Krishna”
The Poignant Tale of An Unwashed Ragpicker The ragpicker in her teens asked me the way out of our lane, Unwashed and vulnerable, her sight was enough to trouble anyone sane! I asked her to come home with me, It was to assuage my guilt almost a plea! She looked at me tentatively and thenContinue reading
Love People for What They Are
Love people for what they are, And in relationships you will go far! Accept them as they are, And nothing can you equation with them mar! Accept that each one of them is a free agent, That each of them is unique in life’s spell-binding pageant! Accept that of life variety is the spice, ThatContinue reading “Love People for What They Are”
The Stupid of Themselves are So Sure
The stupid of themselves are so sure, They think that none more than them is pure! They live with their certainties false, To all the wrong tunes they so gleefully dance! They frolick in the garden of their folly, They are so terribly smug, by golly! They live in their world of make believe, AndContinue reading “The Stupid of Themselves are So Sure”
अगर ग़रूर न करते
अगर ग़रूर न करते तो बेमौत न मरते, न होती हमारे ज़मीर की ज़मीं बंजर, न होता बेनूर और बेरौनक़ यह मंज़र! न फ़िज़ा में घुलता यह जानलेवा ज़हर, न बरपाते इक दूजे पे यूँ क़हर, न बनते इक दूजे की बर्बादी की वजह, न देते लम्हों में सदियों की सी सज़ा! ग़र ग़रूर औरContinue reading “अगर ग़रूर न करते”
कितना अच्छा होता
कितना अच्छा होता कि पैसा चाहे थोड़ा कम होता लेकिन ज़िंदगी में होता जोश, चीज़ों को लेकर न हो जाते बदहोश! कितना अच्छा होता कि ऐशोआराम थोड़ा कम होता पर हर किसी का ज़मीर न दिखाई देता सोता, मन में न रह रह कर उठती हूक, प्यार की न दिखती चारों ओर भूख! कितना अच्छाContinue reading “कितना अच्छा होता”
जीवन की हर गिरह जो खोली
जीवन की हर गिरह जो खोली तो वह मुस्कुरा के बोली, जितना गहरा भी तूँ जाएगा, जीवन की थाह न पाएगा! जीवन है अथाह सागर, न समेट पाए इसे कोई गागर! यह है अनंत और विशाल, इसे ले खड़े हैं कई सवाल! हर जवाब में हैं कई और सवाल, ऐसा ही है जीवन, मन मेंContinue reading “जीवन की हर गिरह जो खोली”
It is Your Spirit That Matters
It is your spirit that matters, Sans it life will be in tatters! It is your spirit that keeps you alive, Without it you just can not flourish or thrive! It is your spirit that takes you to the skies, It helps you negotiate with aplomb life, a game of dice! It is your spiritContinue reading “It is Your Spirit That Matters”
