फ़ाग के दस्तूर.... (Way of love...!!!)

Colors....colors of innocence, colors of happiness, colors of spring, colors of fall, colors of love or colors of pain, all such things make our lives so colorful. Life is so colorful always, sometimes bright and sometimes dark but love always colors it like a rainbow.

"Love paints our canvass like mosaic..."

Love can never be defines by any single distinct color. It only takes the colors of the heart. The pure and honest the love is, the more bright and colorful is relationship.

" You brought colors into my life...!!!"

"लाल पीली चूड़ी चढ़ी
खनक रहा बाजूबंद
अधरों से जो अधर मिलें तो
कपोल चढ़े पलाशी रंग
बिखर रहा है पीला टेसू
जैसे हल्दी चढ़ी हर अंग,
गेंदे से कभी गुलाब से
छेड़े तू मोहे आज
धड़कनों में बज रहा
जैसे कोई साज
मैं कसक रही तेरी बाहों में
जैसे आधी बीती रात
इधर कश्मक़श प्रेम की
उधर तू मगरूर
जो भीगे इस प्यार में
वो जाने फ़ाग के दस्तूर...."

एक चुम्बन .... (A kiss...!!!)

Kisses are sweeter than wine....no two doubts about this. The best kiss is the one which has been exchanged umpteen times between the eyes, before it reaches to the lips. We all have enjoyed kisses right from the moment we are born, a mothers kiss is different from the grandmother's kiss, a kiss from an elder sibling is different from the kisses of the best friends, come adulthood, we all search for that one special kiss, which makes its place in our hearts forever.

There is nothing in this world that makes me felt the way I did, when you kissed me the first time.

The sunlight claps the earth and the moonbeams kiss the sea, what these moments are worth of, you won't come to know, unless you miss me.

I wish I was kissing you instead of missing you...!!!

क्यों मौन धारण कर लिया है तुमने
क्या है जो खो गया है
तुम ही तो हो जा साथ रहते थे
तो फिर अब क्यों
ये शून्यता साथ है
ये अनुभूति, अनुबोध, अनुभव, अंतर्मन
ये कैसा स्वयं से संवाद है ?
हरा देती थीं जब कठिनाईयाँ मुझे
तुम्हारा एक आलिंगन
देता था आगे बढ़ने का सम्बल मुझे
तो फिर अब क्यों
ये अलगाव है
ये मिथ्या, मृषा ,अनृत , असत्य
ये कैसा स्वयं से संवाद है?
न हर्ष है , न कोई शोक
न रिश्ता है न कोई नाता
न जीवन की चाह है
न मृत्यु का भय
वो तुम्हारा मेरे होठों पर एक चुम्बन
वो अकेला चुम्बन
आज भी मेरे साथ है... 
 
translation: 
 "Why are you silent
What is it which is lost
You were the one
who was with me always
then why is this
nothingness with us now 
This feeling, cognition, experience, inner
why is this dialogue with oneself...?
When tough times use to beat me
 You embracing me in your arms
was always more than anything
to give me strength to move ahead
Then why this isolation now
This is untrue, false, erroneous, incorrect
why is this dialogue with oneself...?
There is no joy, no mourning
Not any relationship
 Neither wish life
Nor fear of death
That one kiss of yours
On my lips
That kiss is with me
even today..."

तुम कल भी मुझको प्यार करो......(Ever thine, ever mine, ever ours...!!!)

 What is the greatest adventure in life? Well, one can say life itself is an adventure but I feel "What lies ahead is the greatest adventure". It is often unknown, what lies ahead, but one should keep walking, keep hoping, keep alive to seek, to find, to know more.

Its pretty simple, all you need to do is to keep putting your one foot in front of the other...See it's so simple. What we have today, we may not have tomorrow but the hope to get it again someday is the key to keep moving ahead in life.

There is no sponsor, no guarantee for anything in life, someone who is your friend today, may not be your friend tomorrow; someone who love you today; may not love you tomorrow, someone you love most; may not mean anything tomorrow.....in a nutshell, time changes everything.

"To experience my good ol' days, I will keep moving ahead...!!!"

"बोलो ये ही क्या निश्चित है , तुम कल भी मुझको प्यार करो
मेरी दुर्दिनमय दुनिया में मत वैभव से संसार भरो
यह भी संभव है जीवन की लघुता लिखकर तुम इतराओ
यह भी संभव है जीवन की कटुता चखकर तुम घबराओ
अज्ञात अँधेरे जीवन में, मत आशा का दीपक लेकर
तुम और अँधेरा करने को पल भर को ज्योति बिम्ब जलाओ
मुझ निराधार को मत अपनी आशाओं का आधार करो
बोलो ये ही क्या निश्चित है , तुम कल भी मुझको प्यार करो... 

तुम तो वैभव के राजा हो , मैं कंगलों की एक दासी 
तुम तो आशाओं की उड़न , मेरे सपनों में भी उदासी
तुम तो कलियों की चटखन हो , तुम तो उषा का मधुरंग
जल रहा ह्रदय की ज्वाला से मेरे अंतर  का खालीपन
फिर जान बूझ कर क्यों तुम अंगारे अंगीकार करो
बोलो ये ही क्या निश्चित है , तुम कल भी मुझको प्यार करो...

मेरे अंतर में रखी है निष्ठुरता की आधारशिला
फिर मुझको याद न करने का है व्यर्थ तुम्हारा प्यार गिला
कितने लोचन मुझ तक अपने मधुघर छलकाते आते हैं
होठों को छूने से पहले सब ही खाली हो जाते हैं
ये श्राप न मेरा छीनो तुम, इतनी विनती मेरी स्वीकार करो
बोलो ये ही क्या निश्चित है , तुम कल भी मुझको प्यार करो..."
 
Translation:
 
"Can you promise me, that you will love me tomorrow
Don't fill the world with glory , I am in my unfortunate world
It is also possible to write the shortness of my life
It is also possible that you may get scared
Tasting the harsh realities of life
Don't lit the lamp of hope, in my dark unknown life
 My life get more dark, do not lit the lamp for moments
Don't base your hopes on me  
Can you promise me, that you will love me tomorrow...
 
You, are the king of splendor, I, the maid of the poor
You, a ray of hope, I am sad even in my dreams 
You, the sparkling bud, You, the color of daybreak
The emptiness inside, is burning my heart
Why do you wish to embrace my burning heart?
Can you promise me, that you will love me tomorrow...
 
I am empty and ruthless from inside,  
You do not wish to remember me,
My love is lost in vain
Many eyes me, wish to spill the tavern 
to Reach me
But they all are empty to me and can't enter my heart
Do not take my curse off you, accept this as my behest
Can you promise me, that you will love me tomorrow...
