Is safar main har ek chauraahe pe ek kahaani khadi hai ... har-ek mod pe parchhaaiyaan

nazar aati hain ..... aisaa kain baar  sochaa ki safar ke saath saath chalte

.. magar phir se us chauraahe pe aate hi wahi chehare phir roobaroo ho jaate ha

waqt main ye kahaaniyaan kaheen kho jaayengi, ye saaye kaheen gum ho jaayeng

Apne rang gawaen bin, mere rang mein ghul jao
Apni dhoop bujhaye bin, meri chhao mein aa jao
chalo yoon kare,
Tum, tum bhi raho, main, main bhi rahoon
Hum, hum bhi rahein
Teeno mil ke saath chale
Saathi janam janam, u me aur hum.
U me aur hum, U me aur hum.

Doobi Doobi rahti hun Khyyalon mein tere !!

o mere manawa tu toh baawara hai
tu hi jaane tu kya sochata hai -  baawarein
kyun dikhaaye sapane tu sote jaagate
jo barase sapane bund bund naino ko mund mund 
kaise main chalu dekh na saku anjaan raaste

Dosti ki hain toh Nibhani toh Padegi

2009-10-28T00:00:00.000+05:30

Choti si class ke chote se desk par
nachte nachte kisi padosi ka mazak udaate

Homework mein diye assignment ka kabhi
Dur tak maar karnewala ladaaku jahaaj banate

Shorogul ke Shanshah bante kabhi
Teacher ke aane par jhat obediant ban jaate

Naam naa batane ki kasame dekar
Ankhon ke isharon se dhamkate
Dosti ki hain toh Nibhani toh Padegi

Alhadta se bheege dino mein
Examsdays aate hi jaane kyun beemar pad jate

Der Raat tak padne ke bahane
Multaaani,Sandal,fruit se bane facepack lagate

Kitaabo ke panne palate aur
Kisse Kahaniya Shahrukh Khan ke sunate

Jab bhi baat shopping ki hoti
Udhaar maang kar ye khoob jatate
Dosti ki hain toh Nibhani toh Padegi

Yovan ki nauka pe baith
Dishavihin hun kahin bhi yun hi jaate

Lakhon Chehron ki bheed mein
Achanak kabhi hum koi chehra apna paate

Jeth ki tez dupahri mein
Apna takiya bhi khaare paani mein bheega paate

Gale lagaanewali baahon mein
Racha Basa ehsaas kuch aisa kahta paate
Dosti ki hain toh Nibhani toh Padegi

For All My lovely Friends
Love You All

Dilli Meri Jaan par Mumbai Mera Jahaan ..

Eh hain Mumbai nagariya tu dekh Banvri :P
Well Mumbai is not new city for me but living here is defiantly new :)
Mumbai has many colors like my own delhi but what is the most interesting of all is “color of food” :D
when it comes to food it is deficult to restrain my taste buds.mumbai is famous for chaat but surprisingly I sometime miss delhi :( may be because Mumbai people like to eat little meetha and we delhi people loves to indulge in teekha.

I almost tasted chaat at every thelawala near my locality but paani puri always disappoint me ,sevpuri is good if you mention teekha masal before preparation. it is not the case that mubai chaat is not good because I have tasted some excellent vada paav,sing dana bhel and wow dahi kachori .

I think that enough for this introduction to mubai chaat post :P

Banvra Mann - Dream of an Ignorant

2008-11-26T23:29:00.000+05:30

Bavra mann dekhne chala ek sapna...

Streets we have never walked on,
Windows we have never opened,
Hands we have never held,
Dreams we shall never, never see again.

Bavra mann dekhne chala ek sapna,
bavre se mann ki dekho, bavri hain baatein
bavri si dhadkanein hain, bavri hain saansein

lives we have never lived,
hopes we never realized,
fires we have never lit,
laughs we shall never, never make again

Bavra mann dekhne chala ek sapna...

I hear those strange whispers again.

Tumhari piriya ab puri gharvaali
Doodh navan ghivoo din bhar khaali
Biraha ke aansoon kab ke, ho kab ke ponch daali
Phir kaahe dard jagaao
Mathura nagarpati kaahe tum Gokul jaao

PS: This song is special cus this is among few rare song which dipict perfect color of "virah" .

Lagta hain mausam badal gaya hain ..

2008-11-01T20:26:00.000+05:30

ab nahi chamakte hain peele palaash
ab nahi ubharti hain maathe pe boonde
aur nahi milta hain aam ka wo meetha sa swaad
lagta hain mausam badal gaya hain...

garam hawa ne jaise muh modaa hain
peele patto ne jaise shaakho ka saath choda hain
aur toda hain jaise vidhi ne suraj ka abhimaan
lagta hain mausam badal gaya hain...

safed chadar ki thandak kuch kapkapai hui hain
chanchal pankhe ki pankhudiya kuch alsaayi hui hain
aur hui hain duriya kuch pyas ki matki se
lagta hain mausam badal gaya hain...

hoth pe papadi chadi hain
gaal ki surkhi badi hain
aur padi hain angithi pe kuch bhuni hui shakarkandiya
lagta hain mausam badal gaya hain...

kitni baatein hain jo badal gayi hain
kitne log the jo ab nahi hain
aur kitni yaadein hain jo thahar gayi hain
lagta hain mausam badal gaya hain...
... haan mausam badal gaya hain.

The Girl Child

2008-09-10T16:21:00.000+05:30

The Girl Child
--------------------

Admist the rising dystopia, the girl child is born
Motherhood sleeps still, and the childhood lies torn
Father stands helpless,rich in despair
He see what is to be done, and knows the world does not care.

Oh my girl child will you survive,
Or Oh my girl child will you die,
You lie there bawling , the only language you know
The unspeakable has to be done, no matter how low

Father picks up the child looking everywhere avoiding her gaze
Big eyes on a round face, he walks around stumbling as if in a daze
The chile stops crying, momentarily curious by the strange face
She only sees the love, not the anger in his gaze

Oh my girl child will you survive,
Or Oh my girl child will you die,
You lie there bawling , the only language you know
The unspeakable has to be done no matter how low

He drowns her in water while she is asleep
Washing his hands of her, for she is god's to keep
The house he rinses in kerosene for the fire has to be deep
Sets fire to his house, walks in and goes to sleep

Oh my girl child forgive us for we donot care
Oh my poor mother forgive us for our morality is bare
Oh my young father forgive us for we donot care
3 in a billion is maybe too less to share.

by Ramu

P.S : This Beautiful poem by Ramu who is a very nice musician and guitarist as well :-)

A Green Soul

2008-07-06T21:05:00.000+05:30

This Painting has past ... I just spill green color on orange sheet and was wondering what to do with that sheet ...then a drop of water fell on that sheet and gave me idea to release a soul from that green color and orange sheet ... well sound kind of complicated but to be very honest usually we artist think like this only :-)

Sapna Dekha Hain Maine ....

2008-06-19T17:07:00.001+05:30

Mausam gulal leke darwaje mere aaye

Misri si baat hawayen kaano mein kah jaaye

Baadal ki rui wale takiya liye sirhane

Daadi ki tahapki aur kisse naye purane

Sapna dekha hain Maine... Maine bhi dekha sapna

This Painting is based on my Favourite song which is available on "Song of the Week" Section.

Pastel Colors on Canvas

( This painting is about Amalgam of perfect and imperfect moment in everone's life rest is beautifully explained by Mahadevi Ji )

अलि, मैं कण-कण को जान चली

सबका क्रन्दन पहचान चली

जिसका मीठा-तीखा दंशन,
अंगों मे भरता सुख-सिहरन,
जो पग में चुभकर, कर देता
जर्जर मानस, चिर आहत मन;

जो मृदु फूलो के स्पन्दन से
जो पैना एकाकीपन से,
मै उपवन निर्जन पथ के हर
कंटक का मृदु मत जान चली।

Mein

2008-05-05T22:25:00.000+05:30

Gaalon pe Naachti hun mein
Kabhi Kabhi khidki se bhi jhaankti hun mein

Aasmani kaajal daalti hun mein
Cham Cham bajti payal bhi bandhti hun mein

Hawao mein firati hun mein
Aadhi Aadhi likhi dhune bhi baanchti hun mein

Palko mein simat jaau
Baarish ki ek choti si boond hi toh hun mein

I am an Indian

2008-04-27T21:02:00.000+05:30

Yeah that is the feeling when you see India Gate :-)

But this feeling has different dimension if we call it patriotism.. I always wanted to write about this topic but may be I was missing a trigger which I got yesterday at India Gate.

Well I don’t like to explain fundas and theory about country love and being Indian because I have a different prospective about this “Topic of Patriotism”
For me patriotism does not lie in cheering for out country in cricket especially in cricket.
I don’t believe in confining your goodness with in your country .. and certainly not “Pakistant Hate Club” because few decades cant separate or constrain our heart..

So be Indian and Love people beyond country lines

And that’s what my country is all about
So am proud to be Indian :-)

Jai Hind

Kitni Girhein Kholi hain maine ..

2008-04-12T17:58:00.000+05:30

कितनी गिरहें खोली हैं मैंने.. कितनी गिरहें बाकी हैं..पाँव में पायल... बाहों में कंगन.. गले में हँसली..कमरबंद, छल्ले और बिछुए..नाक, कान छिदवाए गए..और ज़ेवर-ज़ेवर कहते-कहते..

रीत रिवाजों की रस्सियों से में जकड़ी गई..उफ़! कितनी तरह मैं पकड़ी गई..अब छिलने लगे हैं हाथ पाँव..और कितनी खराशें उभरी हैं..कितनी गिरहें खोली हैं मैंने.. कितनी गिरहें बाकी हैं..

Kitni Girhein Kholi hain main..Kitni girhein ab baaki hain .Paaon mein payal ..baahon mein kagan..Gale mein Hansali,Kamarband ,challe aur Bichuye Naak Kaan Chdivaye gaye hain..aur Sever jever kahte kahte reet rivaaj ki rassiyon se mein jakdi gayi .. ...Uff kitni tarah mein pakdi gayi Ab chilne lage hain haath paao aur kitni khrashe ubhari hain .. Kitni Girhein Kholi hain main..Kitni girhein ab baaki hain ..
