Haaye kitna utsaah thaa kabhi man mein

Haaye kitna utsaah thaa kabhi man mein,
ki dharti hilaa denge aasman cheer ke nikal jaayenge,
par aaj kitna avishwas aur dar hai man mein,
lagta hai ped se patta bhi naa tod paayenge.

uplabhdiyon ke socha thaa wo shikhar choo denge,
ke chaahne waale khushi se jhoom jaayenge,
par haaye ye lambaa lekha asafltaaon ka,
kahan socha apne aap se apna mooh chupaayenge.

sada sochte the ke fan apne ko traash lenge itna,
log jalwaa e fan ka dekhte reh jaayenge,
par huaa ye hai ke suchi aayi hai nikaale jaane waalon ki,
aur afwaah hai ke agle hum nikaale jaayenge.

ikk waqt thaa jab ikk junnon ikk aag si thi,
bejhijak keh dete the socha hai to karke dikhaayenge,
ikk waqt hai ab ke koi uthaa deta hai swaal to maan lete hain,
kahan kabhi socha thaa man ke deep yoon bujj jaayenge.

Haaye kitna utsaah thaa kabhi man mein,
ki dharti hilaa denge aasman cheer ke nikal jaayenge,
par aaj kitna avishwas aur dar hai man mein,
lagta hai ped se patta bhi naa tod paayenge....

Lonely

Someday at an odd hour of night,
i may come and knock at your door,
you may ask is everything alright?
and i will say just one thing,
can you please let me come in,
worry not i would not be fleeing
after some crime from the scene,
the case would be just that,
after living alone in the house,
my heart would have worn out,
my soul would have grown too lonely,
and to get both these repaired,
my need would be a place which is homely,
so without asking too much of anything,
just let me come,just let me come with in.

Ise karke kihna jinde holi holi zindgi ch aa

Nimmi nimmi, matthi matthi, lo chaanni di,
dooji roshni sooraj jeth de di,
ikk naina noon sakoon dendi,
dooji aakhian chundiaa dendi.

Halki halki, fikki fikki, laali akkhian te,
dooja rang ghooda bharvatteyyan te,
ikk roop no chaar chann laave,
dooji dekh aakhiaan no dar aave.

holi holi, poli poli, tor baal di,
dooji tor kaahli mard chaali saal di,
ikk dekh kaalje thand paindi,
dooje dekh dhadkan kamb paindi.

ghutt ghutt, tipp tipp, karke peena,
dooja ikk saah deek laa ke peena,
ikk naal chade dhiyaan jiha nashaa,
dooji kaalja saade aukha aave saah.

ise karke kihna jinde holi holi zindgi ch aa,
thoda thoda karke roj raabta vdaa,
ikk damm kite bhull na jaaye hosh meri,
holi holi vassal de painde pair chlaa.

Rabb hi lacchar geetan to raakhi kare

Gaddi de vichh baithaa
kavita mohan di padhda jaanda,
ikk tikaane to kise dooje,
tikaane wall saa sidhaanda,

chaar ku seetan chadke,
dekhdaan haan ki,
beta aunty ko gaana sunao,
ikk aurat bacchi nu payi kehndi,

bacchi shuru karan si laggi,
main vi sunan no dhon si chakki,
bacchi ne pihli do satar padhi,
"chod chaad ke apne saleem ki gali,
anar kali disko chali",

nikkal giya mere muhon aap muhare,
fitte mooh,o dhatt tere!
bande de hun wass naa riha,
rabb hi lacchar geetan to raakhi kare!

Pata nahin si ikk din mere judjegi inna vich khaani

Bin tere taan ikk din vi hai kaddna aukha,
bin tere asan hai par umaar vanjaani,
bin tere jind jiyon hundiaan paatiaan leeran,
te inna leera vich hai asan umar handaani.

har saah aunda jaanda bass ikk honka hai,
haonkeyaan ch hi asan saha di poonji lutaani,
te eh tann bhatthi dhukkhda hai baalan koi,
asan roj isdi bana arthi hai jlaani,

sooi di chob te jo dil paat jaaye,
us dil te hai waqt ne kass aari chlaani,
unjj taan girdaan khaandiyan mareya noon,
deh meri gird judaai ne jiyondiaan khaani.

mera saara painda bass hun birhon da thaal hai,
jis vich door door teek nahin vasal da paani,
jiss vich kise rukh di chaan takk na hai,
jiss vich hai taan bass mrig trishna marjaani.

te eh ikk tarfe da dukh ohdon sikhraa tapp jaanda,
jadd jihdi japdde mar gaye maala oh pechaane vi ni,
haaye sune bauhat sann kisse ishq de dard bhare,
pata nahin si ikk din mere judjegi inna vich khaani.

Kutteyo tusin jaao sonjo, Kutteyo tusin aivein paye darde

Kutteyo tusin jaao sonjo,
Kutteyo tusin aivein paye darde,
sang paad bhonk bhonk ke,
aivein paye pehredaari karde,

kaaliyaan raatan ghup hanere,
chor pihlaan si choriaan karde,
kanndan kole boohe tapp ke,
gharan makaana ch si vad de,

ajj kal chor ne khaadi waale,
dine dihaade dakatiyaan karde,
jaan phir ne saadh pakahandi,
rabb de naa te jo jebaan bharde,

raat noon tusin son jiya karo,
dine nigraani da kamm kyon ni fadde,
jadon eh chor dovein kisam de,
lokaan de sare bjaar gall ne katde,

subaah savere katha ch shor paya karo,
jadon takk lok saare utth na natthde,
raili ch khaadi waaleya nu paad khaya karo,
jadon lok hitt diyaan eh sohan ne chakkde,

asal raakhi da kamm taan eh hi hai,
karlo je tusin ho je kar sakde,
eh jo raatan tusin jaagde rehnde,
mainu taan tusin bharmaaye lagde,

Kutteyo tusin jaao sonjo,
Kutteyo tusin aivein paye darde,
sang paad bhonk bhonk ke,
aivein paye pehredaari karde....

Shart

Shaam payi daftron ghar noo aanda saa,
sadke de kande kande turiyaa jaanda saa,

turdiyaan turdiyaan oh mere naal aa judi,
mere daftar di saathan sohni sunakhi kudi,

bas phir ki si gallan baaatan chall payiaan,
kuch usne sunaaiyaan kych main kayiaan,

gallan gallan ch main usnu puch baithaa,
tainu munde khunde tang nahin karde rekha,

te oh swaal mere te hassan lagg payi,
jivein usde layi se eh koi masla hi nahin,

ehdu pihlaan main kuch kehnda oh bol payi,
nahin nahin mainu hun ni tang karda koi,

pihlaan mainu bade tang karde hunde si,
jhoothe pyaar daa damm bharde hunde si,

par main jaandi saan oh sab chaahnde tann,
kyonki kade kise ni padhna chaahiya si mann,

te phir main ikk din baih viyont ghadi,
te sab aage rakhti main ikk shart kadi,

te oh shart si ki main dil usnu diyaange,
viyaah karke umar bhar us naal rahange,

jo manjoor kare umar bhar mainu naa choohna,
jo manjoor kare kaam to umar bhar rehna aloona,

te phir ki si ikk ikk kar sab picche hatt gaye,
piyaar pyur sab di dilon kidhre natth gaye,

te hun je mere kol bhull bhulekhe aanda koi,
sun shart jihde raahon aaaya mud jaande rahe ohi,

te ultaa hun main sab noon tang kardi haan,
har khote de mann to pardha laah chaddi haan,

te main jwaab usda sunke kiha kiya khoob kitaa,
ishq ch jagg te pihlaan kise na aisa imtihaan litta,

te alvida kehnde main usnu bass phir eho kiha,
dassin je koi puraa utre dekhaa asal aashq hunda kiho jiha.

Winter Evening

Its getting cold and,
its becoming lonely too,
the fog is getting dense,
with each passing day,
days are becoming shorter,
nights are getting longer,
and in the mid of this winter,
by my side i need you.

you may ask autumn came,
summer went, spring passed,
all these three seasons,
i never asked of you,
than what has happened,
that now i need you?

and to this i want to say,
all these three seasons,
i was busy trying to forget you,
that all these three seasons,
i was somehow able to,
force myself not to think of you.

from morning till evening,
i could spend my time,
watching the people passing,
and cheering children in street,
and if i would look up,
i could take a flight with birds,
and at night i could talk to,
the stars and moon.

All this was enough,
to keep my thoughts away from you,
to let myself being distracted enough,
so that i don't think of you,
though occasionally i would cry so much,
that it would thunder and rain,
you must have seen and heard that too.

But now in winter,
there is only thick dense fog,
i cannot see people,
and children in street,
i cannot see birds if i look up,
at night there is no moon,
there are no stars,
all i am left with is,
thoughts of you and you.

And with each passing moment,
with every thought and breathing,
my soul is growing cold,
and with dense loneliness,
my heart is getting choked,
oh! can you be kind, and,
just come for an evening,
i promise after that,
i will never disturb you.

Because after that,
i will able to ,
spend this and coming winters,
thinking of the winter evening,
that i spent with you,
and the warmth of the memories,
will be enough for me,
not to ask in any winter again of you.

I was angry and i talked like a one to him

I was angry and i
talked like a one to him,
he listened to everything,
but nothing bothered him,

and than next day we met,
i said i apologize it was bad of me,
and asked are you angry?
are you holding a grudge against me?

and he said dear friend,
i am glad that it was me,
that God timed it so well,
i was there when you were angry,

and i asked what do you mean?
i talked rude to you,
how can you be glad?
without reason i bashed you,

and he replied,

look i know in perfection,
who really are you,
for a reason from so many years,
i am friend to you,

and i am glad that,
to a stranger with might,
you could not talk like that,
and pick up a fight,

because that could
have badly hurt you,
and i might had to see,
stitches and scars on you,

but i am glad,
that so well it did end,
you got cured of your anger,
and safely i got back my friend.

Rich Uncle and Chess

When i was in school,
a rich uncle came to our place,
and he asked me,
so boy what do you like to do?
i told him that i like numbers,
and i can write a poem too,
and then he asked me,
in life what do you want to be?
i told him that,
rich and smart just like you,
and he replied,start playing chess,
that would help you,
and i asked how can chess help me,
to become one like you?
But he did not answer and said instead,
with time answer will come to you?

So i moved to college and there also,
i did not learn to play chess,
i just spent time in empty rooms,
working with numbers and poems a days few,
than one day again,
that rich uncle again came to our place,
and he gladly said,
you have learn t to play chess haven't you?
i said no i haven't because
i could not understand why so advised you?
and he answered same again,
with time answer will come to you?

So i passed the college, got a job,
forgot what the uncle advised,
earning decent, living in a rented house,
and than one day again,
that rich uncle again came to our place,
and he said so you have started the chess,
i said i did not again follow you,
and he grinned and smiled,
with time answer will come to you?

And than one day,
instead of coming to my place,
he called me at his place,
took me to through his estates,
through his factories and offices,
and he asked so you are what you wanted to be?
i said i am no way close to you,
but i understand now,
why did you ask me to play chess,
and he said that's my boy,
and that's what i wanted to hear from you.

Last time

If to something you say it is the last time,
and last time actually it is for you,
and when the same mischievous thought arises again,
you can push back saying no i told you,
than take a bow! some hell of a man are you.

Keeping the good and rooting out the waste,
you are the master in the art of weeding,
having track of what all in you is growing,
killing the bushes and only the roses feeding,
A bountiful crop of happiness always awaits you,
If to something you say it is the last time....

For sure you are some sort of a distinguished man,
who has achieved what only a very few can,
who has gained the power to control himself,
by following a tough,arduous and stringent plan,
and all the greatest powers of being are for you,
If to something you say it is the last time....

and you are the most spiritual man on this earth,
because this is what all religion is preaching,
to know what all bad is there in your soul,
and to its luring not give a slight of heeding,
and God every moment is showering blessings on you,
If to something you say it is the last time....

No matter what I have to win it.

The level at which I want to play the game,
I don't think i have skills for that big thing,

the mountain I wish to climb is so high,
I don't think my lungs can breathe in air so thin,

the race i wish to run is a long marathon,
and i know I have learned till now is just crawling,

the fight I have chosen to fight,
I know every than and now nothing but a punch is coming,
,
but I am happy that I have at least found,
the thing for years which I have been searching,

I know that from now onwards every moment I will be playing,
and no matter what I have to win it.

Ohde tod na bhull ke vi dilaa kanoon kade

Oh akkhiyaan chon surma uda denda hai,

ohde kolon luke nahin kade aib kise de,

ohnu lod nahin paindi kade aap aun di,
oh matt bande di kurhaare paa denda hai,

oh khedda waqt te haalat te khed aise,

ohde tod na bhull ke vi dilaa kanoon kade,
oh chadda nahin kujj pata vi laggan na denda hai.
