time kahaan hai

kaisi hai yeh zindagi,
kaisi hai yeh paheli,
kehne ko toh sab kuch hai hamaare paas,
fir bhi zindagi jeene ka time kahaan hai.

rehte hain har samay busy mode mein,
kaam karte hain ghadi ke kaaton pe,
chain se khaana kya hota hai yeh ab yaad hi nahin hai,
bhookh ka santusht hona kya hota hai, yeh ab dhyaan mein hi nahin hai.

mobile ke phone book mein number toh hain kaafi,
lekin kisi ko dial karne ka khyaal kahaan hai,
face to face ki jagah baatein hoti hain facebook pe,
doston ke saath baithke gappe haankne ka time kahaan hai.

har movie ho jaati hai internet se hi download,
woh interval mein samose khaana ab kahaan hai;
train ki ticket ghar se hi book ho jaati hai,
woh line mein ghanto khade rehne ke baad ticket milne ki khushi kahaan hai.

asli ke bajae nakli cheezo ne hamein ghera hai,
ab bacchon ka time pass cricket ke bajaae play station pe hota hai;
ghar ke functions bhi ab meetings ki tarah attend hote hain,
family ke beech mein hone ka ab time kahaan hai.

pados mein kaun rehta hai yeh pata nahin,
unka naam kya hai yeh bhi kahaan jaante hain,
apne se zyaada doosre kya kar rahe hain iski chinta hai,
khood kya chaahte hain yeh kahaan pata hai.

gaadi mein baith ke khaate hain AC ki hawa,
khuli hawa mein ghoomne jaana ab kahaan hai;
kehte hain ab zamaana badal gaya hai,
iski wajah hum khud hain yeh sochne ka time kahaan hai.

kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote

Inspired by the movie ‘Udaan’


kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.


apne khwaab bichaaye tumne meri palkhon par,
kabhi meri aankhon se bhi yeh jahaan dekhe hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

chalne ko to chal diya main akela apni raah par,
mere peeche mudke dekhne par kaash tum nazar aaye hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

ghar banaaya tha maine reth mein,
usme ek inth ka tudka tum bhi daale hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

boya tha beej maine jis paudhe ka,
do boond paani usko tum bhi diye hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

dekha tha maine in aankhon se ek sapna,
aankhon ko kuch der aur band rehne diye hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

karna chaaha tha maine is duniya ko mutthi mein,
us muthi ki ek ungli agar tum bane hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

udaan bharni chaahi thi maine is khule gagan mein,
apne haathon se mujhe tum khud chode hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

zindagi toh aise bhi kat jayegi,
is zindagi ka hissa tum bhi bane hote,
kuch kadam mere saath kash tum bhi chale hote.

"Honey, I love you !!! "

there'll be a time,
when your hair goes grey,
on a tickle you will fray,
when it will be difficult for you to hold a tray,

when a small sound will hit you like a noise,
when you'll shout at the cricket playing boys,
when you doze off and everyone enjoys,

there'll be a time,
when your eyes will need a glass,
when you'll disproportionately increase in mass,
when you wont be able to dance,

when your smile will be enhanced artificially,
when your face will be wrinkled considerably,
when you will feel tired regularly,

one thing will be in common for all those times,
me looking at you and saying, "Honey, i love you !!!".

we made a promise

sitting together we made a promise,
no matter what we'll stay forever this way,
through the dark and the light,
in the thunder or any blunder.

we made a promise, to see our smiles before anybody else could,
to walk that curvy road together,
to hold hands when the wind starts to become heavy,
to kick-ass anyone who is a trouble.

we made a promise, to love each other,
to build a world with all the happiness,
to cry for the other's pain,
to lie for the other's gain.

now i fear, soon you won't be near,
i won't cry, i won't shed a tear,
i have to be strong, i know the reason,
you have another promise to keep.

i have a faith, we'll still be together,
like a breeze you'll always touch me,
like a shadow you'll always follow me,
we made a promise.

Nothing

Sitting on the last bench of a class,
You are making some noise along with a pal,
The lecture is going on, which is not very interesting,
Suddenly the teacher catches you both laughing,
She asks you what it is all about, scared you just says, "nothing".

What a fine day, you did not go to school and everyone at home has gone to their work,
In your own happy mood, you start playing cricket inside your hall,
Everything was fine until you broke an expensive vase,
You know you are gonna be so dead when mom comes, you start cleaning your wardrobe and everything else around,
When she finally arrives you show her what all good you did today; astonished she asks why is all this done, speechless you says, "nothing".

You just had an argument with your best buddy,
You have tried explaining him your point in the best way possible; but he won't understand,
He leaves then for doing his work,
Coming back after some time asks why you are still sad,
You know there's no point in arguing with him all over again; giving up you say, "nothing".

Your girlfriend is mad at you for something,
She is all shouting and punching you,
About to cry, she mumbles some meaningless things to you,
Her nose and cheek have become pink red due to all the crying; looking her in this way you start smiling,
She asks you, "now what are you smiling at ? "; to that cute face you say, "nothing".

You have been working very hard at the office lately, feel like running away somewhere from all this,
Taking a break as usual you go for a coffee,
Sitting at a chair near window you are looking some where, (only GOD can explain what it is :) )
You have remembered some incident from your past, which was funny, stupid and totally not you; a smile comes across your face,
Your team mate suddenly comes and asks the reason for it, nodding your head you say, "nothing".

JLT :)

Some experiences which are second to none :

Catching a bus which is about to leave the station.
Watching your child trying to walk, when he can't. The way he stands up taking some support and then again fells down.
Getting a glimpse of your crush through the closing door of the lift.
Trying to lick your ice-cream when it has already reached your elbow.
Smiling about something while sitting alone in peace.
Pressing the send button for your text message, while you are still in dilemma to send it or not.
Picking up the last chocolate left in the distribution.
Last ball of the match left and India needs some 10 odd runs. We feel that India can still pull it.
Your friend is saying something, which you have no idea about. You still keep on nodding your head to make him feel that you are interested.
Singing in bathroom, we think that nobody is able to hear us. Try to be on the other side of the door.
Your class teacher asks you to get out of the class, while you were thinking of a reason to run away.

Life will give us chances to enjoy small things, it's totally up to us to grab them.

Bachpann

Woh choti choti baaton pe khush hona,
Maa ke teen ya chaar baar bulaane par bhi bistar se naa uthna,
Cartoon network pe din bhar lage rehna,
Padosiyon ke ghar jaake roz khaana khana;
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh SUDUP SUDUP karke chai peena,
Glass mein juice naa hone par bhi straw ko kuch samay tak chooste rehna,
Barf ke tukde leke, unhein chabaana,
Fryums ko duson ungliyon mein pehan ke khaana;
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh baarish ki bundon ko hatheli mein lena,
Jaise hi bijli kadke ghar se baahar bhaag jaana,
Mitti ki khushboo ka aaram se mazaa lena,
CHAP CHAP karte hue doston pe paani fekna;
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh kisiki shaadi mein jaane ke liye utaawale rehna,
Kya kya khaane ko milega yeh sochte rehna,
Jaane se kai ghante pehle hi taiyaar ho jaana,
Pahunchte hi music pe dance karne lagna;
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh chocolate kharidne ke liye paise ikkhate karna,
Apne piggy bank ka hisaab roz karte rehna,
Paapa ko bike ka chakkar dilaane ke liye pareshaan karte rehna,
Petrol ki tanki pe baithke, khud bike chalaane ki feeling lena;
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh apne janam din ke liye mahino pehle se intezaar karna,
Kya gift milega yeh mummy-paapa ko poochte rehna,
Naye kapde, naye joote, nayi ghadi kharidna,
Aur sab kuch matching ho iska dhyaan rakhna;
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh kisi ladki ke saath baat karne mein sharmaana,
School mein agar teacher humein unke saath bitha de toh ro dena,
Har teacher ke class mein aane par, "Good Morning Madam" gaate hue khade hona,
Recess ki ghanti bajne ka hamesha wait karte rehna,
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Woh doston ke saath katti-batti khelte rehna,
Cycle race fir unse hi lagaana,
School ki notebook pe star milne par kitna khush hona,
Ghar jaa ke maa ko apni manpasand dish banane ke liye kehna,
Kyun ab yeh sab hum nahin kar paate.

Sometimes I become very sad remembering those days. That's why I always try to keep that innocence in me. It helps me live.
