Letting Go

When the voices haunt the winds
And sing to you,
Let go.

When the music plays inside you
And words drive deep,
Let go.

When the faces form tears in you
And eyes overflow,
Let go.

When the absences burn inside you
And presence a need,
Let go.

When memories lose yourself in you
And you in them,
Let go.

And when the blessed dark calls to you
To hide for a while..
Go, and let yourself go.

In This Moment

No more the person I was yesterday
No more the person I will be,
I am somewhere caught in the middle
Just going where the road will lead.

Living inside a bubble of today
Living outside the world of normality,
I am somewhere just dreaming along
Dreaming until the prick of reality.

Badalte Rang

Koi acha lage to kyun
Bura to bhi to,
Dil ke waqt ke angan mein
Mausamon ka silsila.

Ret fisalti jati to kyun
Pakden par to kaise,
Dil ke sahilon ke kinaron se
Kashtiyon ka silsila.

Aas pas koi ho to kya
Dooriyan ho bhi to,
Dilon ke milne ke lamhon ka
Khatam na ho silsila.

Little high

Thoda paani ikatha hua tha bahane ke liye,
Kuch dard ikatha hua tha mitane ke liye,
Akhir wo gham hi kya, jo peeya na ja sake.

Twinkling Nights

My piece of sky
Where the stars shine down,
Inspiring all-
My time has come.

A belief to power
Through, all the highs and lows,
Burning bright-
My time has come.

The call of heart
Leading to journeys unknown,
With rainbow endings-
My time has come.

No ashes. No dust

Somethings are without meaning
You'll never understand,
The times have gone for changing
You and I once had.

Some things are yet escapable
I gotta understand,
Flickers and shadows may remain
Of that we once had.

I wish I had never met you
Held the warmth of your hand,
We could have had it all
But it slipped through like sand.

Playing with Fire

Shama jalane walon se kya roothna
Unki baatein bhi aag lagati hain,
Par un sholon se door rehna tu
Jo ik phoonk se man me chingari lagate hain.
