मेरे कौन हो तुम? (#whoyouaretome ?)

I always wondered, #whoyouaretome ?  Like star is to night, melody is to rhythm, birds is to sky, wave is to sea, who you are to me. I believe that each one of us, at least once in a lifetime comes across that one special person who makes a world seem to be a better place to live in. Whether you get lucky enough to spend your lifetime with that one person or not, but love remains till the last breath.

Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O no, it's an ever fixed mark, That looks o tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to ever wand'ring bark, Whose worth's unknown, Although his height be taken - William Shakespeare 

Your smile can take me miles, your eyes shine like a brightest star in the night, when I see the first message you send me in the morning it lights up my day, you constantly live in my heart, in my mind, there is never a dull moment in my life because I know you are with me, but then again I still want to know, who you are to me?

Keep searching, keep loving.....miles to go!!

कई सवाल हैं मन में 
पूछना चाहती हूँ तुमसे 
क्या बता पाओगे मुझ को 
कि मेरे कौन हो तुम?
तपती दोपहरी में 
घने पेड़ की छाँव हो तुम 
सर्दी की रातों में 
गर्म आग हो तुम 
पर मेरे कौन हो तुम?
रोज़ रात को 
मेरी नींदों में चले आते हो 
रोज़ एक कच्चा घरौंदा बनाते हो 
आँख खुलते ही
छोड़ देते हो साथ मेरा,
फिर कहाँ चले जाते हो तुम? 
दिल की सूखी धरती पर 
सावन की पहली फुहार तुम 
मेरी आँखों का इंतज़ार तुम 
मेरी दुआ, मेरा काश तुम 
मेरी अधूरी कहानी का 
सबसे अहम् किरदार तुम 
पर ये तो कहो 
कि मेरे कौन हो तुम?

"thousand questions 
I want to ask you
Will you be able to answer
who you are to me?
You are like a tree
in sweltering afternoons
You are like a fire 
In cold winter nights,
But, who are you to me?
You visit me each night
In my sleep
you built a mud house each night
When I wake up
you leave me alone
Where do you go then?
You are like a first drizzle 
In my dried heart
These eyes awaits for you
You are my wish, my hope
You are the soul
Of my incomplete love story
But do tell me
Who are you to me?

  2. जिसके बिना न सांझ ढले
    जिसके बिना न दिन निकले
    जिसके बिना न जी सकूँ
    जिसके बिना न दम निकले
    तुम वो हो मेरे

    पर फिर भी ये कुलबुलाहट हो ही जाती है अक्सर
    की एक बार तुम खुद बात दो
    की तुम कौन हो मेरे
