SALA

sala! acchai ka dhol
sacchai ka bol
teri dukh bhari kahaniyan
wo purani sabh nishaniyan

soch ke pareshan
kya waqt ki imtihaan?
sawal anek sala!
jawab toh nahi mila..

kavita, pravandh o' bhai!
wo yaadein bulake lai
aasoon seh bheegi sari
sapnoon ka mayajaal!

bharosa kispeh karun
main atith seh hi darun
sabh ekich type hai-toh
koshis nako biru!

jhoot ki hai yeh khel
jhooti thi woh mail
abeh hata sala tu bhi naa-
sikha nehi kaise jeena

faida nehi, bhaw nehi hain sala
dikhaweh ka hi samay kayam hain
kisko padi, kisko lagi
kiske mannmeh bhawna jagi??

fast lane life, mbps speed!
bytes are thrown, hard to catch
norton protects the heart inside?
virus matrix- still plots do hatch!

the simple prog when i do run
output null, the cursor waits
ignorance bliss, i tell myself-
blame the luck n curse the fates!

showbiz man! darn! circus run
face paint wear, dazzling light
looks so good, smells o' nice
hollowed dimensions seem so bright!

abeh rota bahut hain
bolana tujhe main!
kuch chutkule suna
warna-koi dhun gun-guna-

gyan sagar meh dubki lagake
dho dal aapna ratan bhandar-
nayi bol, koi nayi dhun banake-
chale chal nayi disha keh oar-

words no more-

words that floated like wasted pollens
words that 'faded' with the break of dawn-
words that expired with the measures of time
in rush hour, words.... all lost and gone

in words to explain, i did try
with words to express the locus of life
to try and get the harmonic wave
bearing words- to seek, to strive

words to link, words to break
words of emotions- tailor-made
of friends, of those, now no more-
do some remain, still unsaid

words, a gift. a strength... support
a purpose drives the essence ahead
words catalyze, the cross of change!
tales o' life, of words are made-

words of chance, words of show
liar! liar! a word game played
the selfish gains those spoken words-
hollowed currency for the worldly trade!


words affect, the foolish souls
the trapeze of thoughts, highs n lows,
words of one, its effect on else-
on canvas of life, its magic shows!!

have written enough, those honest words
some happy sad, some in dire straits-
the worldly wisdom did overwrite
did mask most of the truest traits...

words of questions, words of chance,
words of plea, a reason to believe-
words of try, of efforts made
words to hold and not to leave

now no more, no words would waste
my experiments with truth, the cup overflows-
trials and errors, words-worth remain
turn the page-
as the lilting zephyr slowly blows...
