ज़िन्दगी एक पहेली

रात गयी , और दिन नयी

 हर दिन एक नयी शुरुवात  बनी 

बच्चपन में तो कूब मज़े की

 रोते जगध्ते और हस्ते हुए  भी 

इसी तरह  जीवन चलता रहा

 ना  जाने कब बच्चपन ,जवानी में बदला 

यह दुनिया की सफर तो है बड़ी लम्बी 

कभी रुलाती है कभी हस्साती भी यही 

कधम कधम रक्ते जायेंगे सभी

 किसी और की राहें या अपने कुद  की 

सुख दुःख का पहिया चल्ता रहेगा 

अँधेरा हो या फिर उज्जाला भरा 

बुढ़ापा  तो हमें बोहुत तड्पाएगा

 आक़ीर फूल किला तो मर भी जायेगा 

A beggar's life!

I woke up from my sleep,
as if coming back alive,
hearing my stomach shriek,
i remember, like a lightening strike

Its the third day! i'm hungry
not a morsel of food, to eat.

People come, and people go,
I don't remember a single face,
some even pass by me, so close,
but none a friend nor a relative, are they?

Its the third day! I'm hungry.
not a morsel of food, to eat.

On these days, in the afternoon heat,
with nothing on my foot to wear
waiting to get something to eat,
I stand by the temples and fairs

Its the third day! I'm hungry.
not a morsel of food, to eat..

A time, there was,even i had a family,
Mother, so loving , gave me food,
Its long gone, now just a memory
Father worked hard, to earn these goods.

Its the third day! I'm hungry.
not a morsel of food, to eat..

Sometimes I wander around, in the city,
stopping by  malls, hotels and bakeries,
 thrown at me, at times - stale food or a penny,
enough for the day to eat, to my hearts merry

But today..
Its the third day! I'm hungry.
not a morsel of food, to eat..

my head feels heavy, I'm about to faint,
be it unconsciousness, be it death.
Poverty - the reason for my family's disdain,
also the reason for my ordeal and mirth.

Its the third day! I'm hungry.
not a morsel of food, to eat..

A brief talk with LIFE

Life..

Through your eyes,
 you make me realize,
the destiny you have for me in reserve,
but not what I think I really deserve


My naive heart often skip's a beat,
fooling itself to have reached the peak,
For it doesn't know, you are my shadow.
Hence your wish, my mind shall follow,

Yes, your decision I have agreed to,
so weak i am, to my heart, not true
my dream to become a reality is due
but the chance for it, I see is few.

every glance you give, at me,
Makes it harder to face the reality
You may make me say, I'm in love with you,
But you know, sometimes, Its too good to be true

I fear the storms that can rip me apart,
I shall chase my dreams, till then not depart.
I have the weapon, to battle challenges from thee
for, it is a gift from you,the best one i ever received.

It motivates and creates a zeal,
It encourages and also heals,
it has nurtured me to who I am, today,
and creates memories to cherish my yesterdays


for all the you have shown on me,
Thank you, LIFE, for the gift of family

Butter Chicken song (the chikni chameli way)

kitchen k yeh khana, badi swadist  si banegi
ek barthan mein tum lena, murgh, dahi,  kashmiri mirchi bhi

Hey..
kitchen k yeh khana, badi swadist  si banegi
ek barthan mein tum lena, murgh, dahi, kashmiri mirche bhi
Note ab karle tum, usme dalo ab nimbu pani .

Aaayi  chickeni Makhanni.. banke rasilee, Tandoor mein pakh k aayi. (3times)

Marinate ab isko karni toh hai, rakhde fridge mein gante k liye,
Tab tak hum ko yeh makhani gravy ghazab ki banani hai
Sauce pan rako sim flame pe, makhan usme 2 full spoons k
adrakh, lasang, kasuri methi, namak, mirchi b dale
tamatar ka ras bhi, sarson ka tel bhi,
tamatar ka ras bhi, sarson ka tel bhi
nimbu ka ras milake pakne de zara
itni sari flavours se, yeh swadist toh banne wali

Aaayi chickeni Makhanni .. banke rasilee, Tandoor mein pakh k aayi. (3times)

Dakhan laga k pakhne de, gravy lal rang ki honi jo hai,

garama garam isko, roti k saath kahiyee..
yeh toh recipe hai, ab mein photo dikane wali

Aaayi  chickeni Makhanni.. banke rasilee, Tandoor mein pakh k aayi. (3times)

Dear Doc Bro Pal ;)

A friend ,now from overseas,
A sister ,may be forgotten by thee,
whom in person you have never seen
But, who always wishes good for thee.

Always fun but sometimes lazy,
Everytime we talk,you call me couchee
Convey my regards to your parents n fiancée
Don't forget, your sis who's always happy n glee ;)

Happy Mothers Day!!!

The sun shining bright, encouraged me to dream;

Fostered and nurtured, the seeds of self esteem.

With love like red roses, in the garden of the heart,

And all the good things, that gave my life a start.

Protected enough, when the winds blew,

But not too much, for, stronger I had to grow.

Examples to teach me, right from wrong,

Marked on my pathway that'd last life long.

In my mothers garden where, I am her legacy,

With all your love for me, which I reflect back to thee

A boring friendship

I have a close friend,
He visits me , frequent
Our bond will never end,
To be with me, he's meant
Like a devotee, so ardent,
Follows me wherever I went,
Coz' of him some emotions I vent,
Coz' of him some thoughts I pen,
Coz' of him, I ring up an old friend,
Coz' of him, I daydream now and then,
Coz' of him, I fight with my husband,
Coz ' of him, I miss my family, again,
Nostalgic I feel, thinking of them.
A good friend with no bad intentions,
Yet creates in me an emotional torrent,
I like him bugging me like he does, often
My good old friend,I call him boredom.
