क्यूँ?

जो मुझमें ही था, उसी को पाने को तरसे!

हस्ती को नहीं पहचाने जाने को तरसे!!

बनाना था मजहब, खुदा से मिलने का!

खुदा को मजहब का जामा पहना डाला!! 

जिंदगी मिली थी जीने के लिए!

उसे रिश्तों के तकल्लुफी में गवां डाला!! 

आये थे प्यार करने और प्यार पाने को!

प्यार को उम्मीदों के लेन-देन में घोंट के मार डाला!!

Soul Dance

The soul is moving its dancing feet,

Rhythmic beats that my heart plays

Vibrating veins producing melodious tunes

Steps i take today are clear, and my thoughts are neat



A canal with water full of roses,

Is flowing and my feet are in

Suddenly a smiling face looks at me

And i smile back as my soul moves its dancing feet



Brighter mornings, beautiful days

Newer hope and a willing living

Higher planes i seek with you

And my soul moves its dancing feet



Never imagined i could love again

Never imagined that someone will love back

I was like burden on myself the time before

Yet my soul has moved its dancing feet



Its irrelevant how i express myself

No more its possible for me

Beloved, I love you and you are the symphony

To which my soul is moving its dancing feet!!!
