zikr



ग़म में डूबे खुदी को
अब ग़म ही नज़र नहीं आता
तुम्हारे होने न होने का
अब निशाँ नज़र नहीं आता

शिद्दत से तुम्हे भूलाने का
वक़्त नज़र नहीं आता
और वक़्त आ  भी जाए
तोह लम्हा नज़र नहीं आता

अपने आप से तुम्हारी बातें किया करते थे
अब वोह जूनून नज़र नहीं आता
तुम्हारे नाम पे झूम उठा करते थे
अब वोह सुकून नज़र नहीं आता

तुम्हारे अधूरे सपनों का
लाल रंग नज़र नहीं आता
जिस चाहत से रंगा था ज़िन्दगी को
खुद ही में चिप्पा वोह रंगरेज़ नज़र नहीं आता

बेवजह फूलों को चूमने का
फितूर नज़र नहीं आता
जहान को महकाने वाला
अब वोह इत्तर  नज़र नहीं आता

दिवाली के दिए  सा रोशन
वोह इश्क़ नज़र नहीं आता
अब चाहे किसी भी आसमान में ढूंढे
ईद का चाँद नज़र नहीं आता

एक और रंजिश ही सही कहते  हैं
पर तुम्हारा ज़िक्र  नज़र नहीं आता
फिर भी तुम्हरी मोहब्बत से निकलने का
अब कोई फ़िक्र नज़र नहीं आता

Thanks, Dad

Do Nainaa Aur ek Kahani Thoda Sa Baadal Thoda Sa Paani Aur ek Kahani Choti Si Do Jheelon Mein Wo Behati Rehati Hai Koi Sune Ya Na Sune Kehti Rehti Hai Kuch Likh Ke Aur Kuch Zubani ~Gulzar ~~Masoom This one is devoted to my Father. You know, while growing up parents always say things to the kids and they often end their arguments with "We've grown up, crossed all the paths that you will be crossing, and we know what its like" And you often say to yourself, no way! That was a different time and these are different times, things are now different, the paths are different. And so you go on, do what you want to do. It's often happened to me. And it happened again, when I told my parents that I was dating someone. My Father wrote me an email and said a lot of things. He didnt shout, he didnt preach. But it had a nice "conversation over coffee" feel to it. And I love re-reading that email sometimes. The crux of what he said was, "I...

Goodbye 29 - July 21

Omg. 4 days to go. In four days I'll be leaving behind some of my most beautiful years but also some of my most traumatic. All lovely learning experiences nevertheless. Speaking of learning experiences, today I want to very quickly talk about being a bit more assertive. A couple of years back my manager at work then told me - I think you need to speak up more and be more assertive. Let's work on these skills and then let's also work on your promotion -   At that time I silently said in my head "yea right, just tell me straight up you don't want to put me up for promotion instead of giving me this corporate mumbo-jumbo". I have always been a believer of hard work speaks for itself and you don't need to be screaming from the rooftops about your "work" for you to get ahead in life, or for your worth to be recognised and rewarded. I have always been and will always be an introvert. I do not come across as one because I am very social and I ...

Zindagi Migzara.

Har ghadi badal rahi hai roop zindagi Chhaaon hai kabhi kabhi hai dhoop zindagi ~~Javed Akhtar, Kal ho Na Ho This is a post I will HAVE to name after my blog, simply because no other phrase can capture the true meaning of what I will try my best to express in words in this one. It all started on the Third Floor balcony of Omega, Hyderabad. And the best part is the fact that we didn't even know that we had started something new. We went through months of dilemma and denial while deep down both of us just knew. As a very dear friend puts it we had the 'connection' , but we were yet to discover it. Days, Nights, and months went by, before we realized. In fact more than 'realization', we accepted that we meant a lot more to each other. Today when people ask me for a time,date and place and what, where, how, when. I am clueless. Because it was not love at first sight, it was even more beautiful than that. A friendship that both of us treasured to th...
