Airport...
As I trace your leaving steps,Tears,
emotions,
my heart overwhelms.
So vivid is your image,
your pearl tears,
As I comforted your fears
in my love’s embrace.
You wanted never to let me go
To leave your Jaan all alone...
I wish that you never went home,
For now I live empty, all alone...
Who will wipe,
the tears from my eyes?
And stop the bleeding of my heart...
Who will embrace me
with the warmth of your love?
Save me from pain’s ruthless arms...
How I endure fate’s wrath!
If only you knew-
The void that lives,
The pain I face...
The tears I’ve shed
In every moments separation...
How sorrow laughed,
Watching-
Every heartbeat of mine,
Knocking-
At pain’s merciless door.
As I leave the airport,
A prayer I make...
May I forget not ever,
Your departing face...
One day I pray I’ll come here again,
To see your smile and feel love again.
Jaan
Jaan, why do I long to hold you?
When my heart you have pained!
Why do I pray for your happiness?
When your thoughts cause me heartache!
Why does my heart not curse, but love you
When you have broken all promises...
My mind laughs at my heart’s battle
My soul weeps that you mirrored the rest.
Your letters I’ve read often and wonder
I must have misunderstood your promises.
To cure my heart’s wounds with your love
Not bleed me like the great Nile.
As I sit alone, hiding my tears and paining,
Half-a-world away, your singing and dancing.
My tears shed will not forgive you for deceiving me
My heart's scars forgive you, for saying- you loved me.
Though Lovers
My Love
Though lovers are blind to faults and cures
Know that my heart’s love is crystal pure.
I ask not for diamonds, or sweet, scented perfumes
Or kisses to caress my lips, as the waves do the shore.
I ask not an eternity, or blossoms feathered by time
To plant seeds of desires- of the moon, stars and sun.
I need but a moments rain to cool the heat of love
Minted with past betrayals, heart’s elixirs parched.
I need but a friend’s care to root the seed of trust
To fruit the garden of giving, and the feeling of love.
I pray that Nature hears the drumming of my heart
A calling to creation, to fashion my golden harp.
I pray that Heaven sings the Psalms of joys and love
Striking every heart’s cord to vibrate in true love.
I yearn only to hold you in the palace of my heart
To share a whisper, a moment, before Time’s echo departs.
I yearn only your friendship to hold dearly in my mind
To experience a Moment’s happiness and save pain for Time.
Though I have many faults, know that my heart’s love is pure
In prayer I await my Jaan, to embrace her love, my only cure.
Jaan = Beloved, (Life)
Blind Eyes
Fools are they who judge,
Condemn, thinking they are wise;
Intelligent men of ignorant hearts
Executioners of poetic thoughts.
Of atoms, you argue why?
My heart is not your conscious;
And love is not your conception,
You seek truth in mirages.
If you could see Love’s eyes
The star piercing my heart;
Waves, embracing the ocean
In the chambers of my heart.
Then atoms would sing,
Every cell of your body
Would dance rapturously,
On experiencing my Love.
My heart....
My heart, my heart, my heart...
O’ "quit playing games with my heart"
My love, was all I had from the start!
The start, the start, the start...
How can you walk away from me now?
After all that I’ve sacrificed for your love!
Your love, your love, your love....
O’ "why have you broken my heart"
My life you have yanked from my heart!
My heart, my heart, my heart...
Tell me, why did I battle for your love
I must have been confused or in love!
In love, in love, in love.....
O’ I know why you played with my heart
My love was the greatest of them all!
Them all, them all, them all....
You must have felt the rain of my heart
Its love must have torn your heart apart..
Apart, apart, apart....
O’ I forgive for all that you have done
You know my love is as bright as the sun,
The sun, the sun, the sun...
As I remember the loss to my heart
I can’t ever forget you my love,
My love, my love, my love....
So "quit playing games with my heart"
You are all that I got in my thoughts,
My thoughts, my thoughts, my thoughts..
O’ don’t you forget me my love
You are all that I have in my life,
My life, my life, my life...
Kabhi Mai Sochthi Hu
Kabhi mai sochthi huKi koi aayega
Kabhi mai sochthi hu
Ki koi mere yeh pyar
Ki bhookh ko mitayega
Koi to hoga
Mere sapno ka raja
Kahi to hoga
Mere sapno ka raja
Meri har saas
uske dil ki dhadkan se
hai jooda hua
Meri har dhadkan
uska naam pukarta raheta hai
Par yeh awaaz
mere kaano tak
nahi pahuchti
Kab tak yeh raaz
Mere dil mein chupa rahega
Kab tak mere sapno ka raja
Gumnaam rahega.
-Salisha
Hazaar Tukre
Je ek baar hee mera dil toda hotaa,Je ek baar hee mere dil kee tumanaa todee hotee
Je ek baar hee TooTe dil ko mai joDaa hotaa
Phir vee hum hans hans ke pyaar tumse karlaitaa!
Par dil to hazaar hazaar bar tumse pyaar karta raha
Tume pukaar pukaar ke kangaal hooaa raha
Ik baar nahi hazaar hazaar iske TukRe hooe
Par tum bekhabar rahee,
Sun-nee na-sun-nee kardee
Isdee pyaar bharee aawaazen.
Dhokha tunne nahin deeya tha,
Bhool to Dil kee thi
Jo pyaar tumhe keeya.
Pagul Dil jaantaa nahi tha
Ke tum pyaar karne me
Aaj inkaar kardegee...
Ub is hazaaren tukron se hum kiya karoon?
Bus duaa karta hai Rab se:
Ik aisaa nasha pyaar ka muje pilaade
Zindgee ke safar me, too mera dil bunjaaye!
Jisko humne samjhatha apna
Jisko humne samjhatha apna,Rahegaya voh ek jhuta sapna,
Jisko dil ne pyar se apnaiya,
Nikla vohi sab se paraiya,
Jiski khaathar hum hue badnam,
Ek hai uspar humara ehsaan,
Ke chalo, humne tho dil ki chot khaaee,
Lekin usko mohobaat hum hi ne sikhaaee.
Jo pal mere liye sub kuch hai
Jo pal mere liye sub kuch haiWoh pal unkeliye kuch bhi nahin
Jis baat ka mujhe gum hai
Us baat ki unko ehesas nahin
Us atoot bandhan ko duhaeen
Jis bandhan me sirf hoti hai tanhai
Tere sung sapnon bhari raat na sahin
Teri yaad mein shub-e-gum ka saath to sahin
Kaise samjhaun tujhe dil-e-nadaan
In yaadon se zinda hai mere armaan
Bandagi mein hazir hain apni jaan
~By Rashmi~
Haath pakadkar...
Haath pakadkar beech raah chodna hi thaTo hamne bhi na dil diya hota
Haame malum na tha pyar mein kuch nahin milta
Beeti yaadon ke siva aur kuch nahin hota
Yakin kare na kare
Arz siraf itna hai mere pyar par
yakin karee!
~By Priya Iyer~
Raaste Mein Gire
Raaste Mein Gire Hain Phool, Uthata Hai Koi Koi,Mohobbat Karte Hain Sabhi, Nibhata Hai Koi Koi.
Tapish Suraj Ki
Tapish Suraj Ki Hoti Hai, Jalna Zameen Ko Padta Hai,Qusur Aankhon Ka Hota Hai, Tadapna Dil Ko Padta Hai.
A Moment
Give me a moment with my Beloved,I desire nothing else in my life.
Give me your blessed painful longing
So I may not remember anyone else.
O’ good destiny has smiled on me
My heart burns in your passion’s fire
Your heat of love is my cooling rain
Fruiting life’s breath in my lotus-heart.
O’ you are my heart’s cancer Love
I’m cured without you- O’ cure me not!
