TOGETHER NOW

Looking in to your deep eyes,
My mind sinks in the ocean of your beauty,
In search of the pearl of love,
That you have hidden from me so far,
In the stomach of your heart.
My fingers comb gently through,
Your soft silky dense hair of your head,
That is carefully placed on my thigh.
My heart reached to ecstasy,
While you silently smile,
Enjoying every bit of my touch of love,
As after a lot of struggle we have reached this heaven.
My eyes after probing  for the first time from so close,
The high and lows of your body,
Forced my lips to reach,
My long cherished place its counterpart,
To feed her a sweet kiss that you have always demanded.
Why should we care,what the world outside this room thinks about us ?
Does it care either of our emotions or of our love?
Its our lives and we are the ultimate deciders,
As of now I am your man and you are my girl.

THE ENEMY

The dawn remains away from me these days and so does the Sun,
I wake up many times in the night,
To see whether the dawn approached or not,
Whether the Sun knocked the door of my world or not,
But both of them are intent to to be in enmity with me.
And they deliberately come very late in the morning,
Because they know I would see you then,
And they do not want us to be together,
To make our love deeper day by day, in broad day light
I think they intentionally wish to cause late in it.
Will they remain like that,come late to end the darkness,
Of that night in which we would begin the sail of our life together,
Being man and wife we would be making love together,
You sleeping in my lap and me intimately holding your body,
To share between us the ecstasy of love ?
Will the night remain this much long,
The dawn and the Sun remain so far late ?
Or they would like to still stay our enemy,
And start rushing early to their place,
 To make the night shorter than this,
To ensure an early end to our romance,
That is remained to be seen.

MY LOVE

Night grow deeper by  time,
You sleep  on  the bed half awaken,
I sit beside the pillow that is under your head,
Rolling my finger over the dense hair,
Of your head, combing and giving,
A sweet touch of love through that,
We whisper and exchange love talk,
Over the pain that we got to reach this destination,
Of our  final union, and over the resolution of never to be separated.
You shift your head on to my thigh,
I continue to comb your hair,
And bend to whisper in your ear,
At times without getting a reply,
Giving a soft kiss on your ear I say,
"Hey you sleep peacefully Kilya, mi amor,
I am awaken, your comfort is my look out now."
I glance outside the window, to the road,
At times vehicles pass  through it making noise,
I put finger over my lips and murmur,
"Silence please,   silence please,
Do not you see that my sweet heart is at rest,
She must be in sweet dreams of our future,
How can you be so rude to cause hindrance in it,
For God's sake please do not disturb us before the morning."
Those vehicles never pay attention towards my words,
And they were  in an  inaudible distance as well.
But I feel disturbed a lot in carrying out my job,
Of ensuring her rest on my thigh,in this night.
Twittering of birds outside announce the approach of dawn,
The beginning of   journey of the Sun,
And its winning the battle with the darkness.
Kilya opened her eyes as the sun rays reached her face,
Filtered mercilessly through the window.
"You are still here sitting and  making me sleep comfortably,
On your thigh and spent a sleepless night for me."
"Do not be worried, its my love of you, its my job for you,
And I am habituated of this while waiting for you those days ,my love,
And passing sleepless nights with paper and pen.
When you were not with me and I was living in your dreams."
She went away , "Just bringing  a coffee for you, my sweet love"
After giving a warm kiss on my forehead.

"I LOVE YOU" You say this.

You  said  "I love you" and  I did not believe it,
I do not know, whether you really mean it or just casually said that.

I wished to introduce me and my definition of love,
May be some wrong conception for both of them in your mind you have.
Its not just about getting someone physically and set,
The sail of life together and divorce on being in tussle.
Its about seeing, believing ,understanding and accepting each other,
Mentally to initiate a journey till the end of life,
 Balancing on all odds and evens, life has to offer.
Love is an ocean of fire that requires a great valour to sail through  it,
And you might hesitate to pay the price it demands.
Do you have the courage to hold high the values and ethics of love,
That ensures giving to not taking  from, the one you claim to have loved ?
What do you think you will get out of it that you  love me,
An insignificant, not praiseworthy, low earning,simple living,  high thinking man ?
My sufferings, miserableness, struggles to earn a living ,
Would break your heart and shatter your dreams of a colourful future.
Days of love making and doing fun together,
Would be passed in each day struggles for survival.
It is very easy to say I love you to  anyone,
But remaining strictly on the line is equally tough task.
You are still on the door step,  may get in or abstain from doing  so,
The key is in your hand and the choice is yours.  

THE DIAMOND

I call you the moon as you blessed me 
With  sweet, soothing  and  pleasant light of love,
But  the moon has spot in it  and
You are a spotless beauty queen.
Should I call you a beautiful flower ?
But flower would faint in a day or two,
And you are an ever green Angel.

Are you a charming portrait ,
But a portrait is lifeless and thus stagnant,
And you are full of life as the earth.
May I name you the Sun ?
Who cause life in the planet called I,
But the Sun has no water in it,
And you are a ocean of  love.
Are you a dew drop in the morning of my life ?
But a dew drop is too small,
And you are too vast and beyond my imagination.
You are a precious diamond  that anyone,
Would like to possess and decorate in his crown,
And demonstrate to the world with pride.

COME WITH ME

My heart is contended neither with your portrait,
Nor with the exchange of the few words of sweet nothing.
Your lifeless portrait and those soundless  words,
Are of-course not so descriptive of you.
Now its high time for you to come open with me,
And put life in to this live-corpse,
That you made me these days.
Or else let me to end  this worthless life,
And burn the heart that has limitless love in it for you.  

THE TATTOO

APURBA   ANANYA

I saw that in the back,                                                                                   
Of one of my friend,
A tattoo.
I took my glass and watched it from close,
 I was stunned to see that,
The sense of which I did not understand.
Two prints of foot of a child,
Covered by two names on each side,
Were there as I saw.
Of curiosity I asked him of that,
"Whose  names are they ?
And what symbolise these feet ?"
"They are the names of my kids,
 "But why they are there ?                                                                                 
You must bear them over your chest,
As they are undoubtedly most close to your heart."
"Besides living each day for them,
Doing all right things and wrong doings for them,
Surrendering to all their whims and fulfilling all their  demands,
One day when they would have their wings,
Become self dependant and able enough,
To live without my support,
And I would grow old and be dependant on them,
I know  they would walk away and desert me,
To fight my own struggle for survival,
Relying on God's grace and mercy of  the society,
Till I meet the inevitable end of my life."
He continued "Now  I am preparing mentally for that,
Hence this tattoo is justified and properly placed."
"True that you are sincere in your efforts,
In caring out the responsibilities towards them,
Who arrived on earth because of and depending on you.
It is your duty and you are doing cent per cent  perfect in it,
Thus going great as per the arrangements of God.
But you should never eye on the outcome and return,
And do not be so pessimistic as you are now,
For He is having his calculations,
Rely on Him, He will never do injustice with  you.

SAFE LOVE 3

You said this,
We should  have, "Safe love",
I was stunned that day, as
We only have a fair friendship,
A relation of mutual regards,
Sharing and caring of emotions.
But I feel now that your words,
Are not non-existent,
In the pretext of the world,
We are living in today.

People here are though seen to be,
Bi-footed, brainy human beings,
But sorry to say this,
That most of them are no more human beings,
As God wished them to be.
I searched from that day,
With the torch of my wisdom and knowledge,
For  men among the crowd,
But failed to spot except a few,
Of  having a broad mind and a great heart,
To believe and accept things as they are,
And be truthful and honest,
In each of their approach and analysis.
They would smell a rat,
On each of our meetings and talks,
Of  friendship and pious exchange,
Of emotion and of heart,
As we are of opposite sex.
That leads me to think,
Things on the light of your words,
On the depth of your doubt and concern,
And reached to the conclusion that,
I should do it as you wish,
Hide the relationship behind a cover,
Of  hypocrisy and pretension,
To make our love "safe",
From being tarnished by,
The remarks of those dirty minds.

SAFE LOVE 2

You told  me,
We should have,
"Safe love" and I said,
"Love is always safe,
You love God, your relatives,
Many of them,  is it unsafe."
Why should we be hiding things, 
Like sinister ? That which is pious,
Not harming any one in the society,
Not disturbing anyone's interest, peace and happiness,
Not interfering with anyone's life."

"I love you, to care your emotions,
Share your heart and stand behind you,
In times of trouble and augment your pleasure.
I love you because of your personality,
Approach,humbleness and sweetness.
I am not here to see,
The hills and valleys of your physic.
I will never wish any day ,
To measure them with that of mine.
I wish  just to love you and be yours,
As we should be one person in two bodies."
You proclaimed, "Still people will whisper,
About the closeness of me and you,
Many of them you know,
Might  have evil  tongues,
And will defame us of having an illicit relation,
An affairs."
"Let them the devils define wrong,
The ethics and values of love,
But we being so civilized persons,
Will definitely be intimately involved,
But will never tarnish the image of love.
Let you and me with loud voice,
And our clear and honest act,
Glorify the greatness of love.
Let us openly love each other,
And proudly pronounce our love."

SAFE LOVE 1

You whispered me, we must have ,
"Safe love" I stared at you,
Trying to digest what you said.
I have not heard the term "safe"
From any where with regards to "love."
But I have indeed heard,
The term many times connected to "sex."
Did you mean this ? I feared,
Have I knocked the wrong door,
And missed out my only chance
Of loving and being loved in this life.
As I will never again anywhere else,
And love anybody else,
As to me it is not love,
Which is done once, twice, and thrice.
I pondered over, how to convince you ,
And how could I cope,
Your definition of  love,
With that of mine.

I could not go back and quit the game,
Nor can I change the player,
But will have to play it ,
As per my norms.
I wished to impose my thoughts,
Without exposing my fear,
Of  loosing you by blaming or arguing.
So I said "we would not do anything,
That goes beyond the territory of friendship,
And break the social norms,
People see it as taboo,
And call us evildoer." you asked
"Then how should our love  be?" 
"It should be mutual trust,
Sharing and caring of emotions,
Belief, regard and worship,
Between the us two,
And this will always be safe,
Your safe love."

UNITED WE STAND

Gone are those days to the dread memory of past,
The story of my misery, he should be ashamed of that.
When he made me just a caged bird, 
To speak only of those that were taught.
Used me and bartered  my fate for himself
Served me for a purpose with wine as sex slave.
Decorated  me as a piece on his showcase,
Kept me away from wisdom, knowledge the way  he wished.
Made me a puppet and he hold the string,
To dance and act to the script he had written.

Though poets from ages hold me high and praised my beauty and youth.
Glorified my entity as a woman and valued my worth.
On being educated I reached my place.
A respected life that I deserved always.
Now at will I can fly and run like him,
Even better than that to fulfil my dream.
I can have a life that I had ever cherished,
So bold I am today that I deserve to flourish.

Come, let us join hands and smash him to dust,
He that tries to oppress, dominate, disrespect and impose on us our past.
Let us hold hands tight, taste the freedom and rejoice,
Prove to the world that we are the prettier and superior of the spice.
No more we are the people of their domain,
No more to tolerate the tyranny of men.
Let us be the masters of our fate and decide our destiny,
Let us all be together in the course of our journey.
United we will stand and divided we will fall,
Let us be in a bond and challenge them all.

   

THE NAIVE BRAIN

Deceived by the superficial appearance,
Combined with  the  beauty of words
Eloquently spoken ,driven by the  immature youth,
She gulped poison,assuming him to be  nectar.
Wise people like her often do dumb things,
In choosing the course of journey,
The partner of life,the soul mate,
Extra cautiousness or overconfidence victimized her.
Till the day she understand, the blunder committed,
The poison paralyzed the whole system,
Of a beautifully nurtured innocent life, 
Leaving no room for looking back,
For a new beginning ,
Except stopping to travel or
Compromise everyday with not agreeable terms,
Or quitting the road amidst huge social storms.

गम में हम

गम-ए -जिंदगी  से कोसों दूर ,
          गम  को  जिंदगी   में  पाला   है  हमनें। 
वर्ना हम क्या थे ,कहाँ थे ये कलाम 
           न  वह  भाब  रहता , न  ये   पैग़ाम। 

वक़्त ठहर जा(please pause oh! Time)

ऐ  वक़्त  ठहर  जा पल  भर, 
                  पल  में  तेरा    क्या  जाएगा  । 
नजर भर देख लेने दे हमें 
       वर्ना  हमारा  नूर-ए -नजर  चला  जाएगा।  





Oh ! Time please pause for a while,
                      You would  loose  nothing in  a   moment.
Let me to see her to my satisfaction,
                      Before my sweetheart go out of my sight.

ARE YOU UNSOCIAL ?

You are,  as they say,
Unsocial for them,
As you do not come
Up to their expectations,
Fulfil their desires,
Neither spend time in chating with
Nor money for them.

But I do not think that way,
For I know you love and believe all,
Care for and share with your family,
Stands boldly behind him,
In these days of his  misery
And sufferings of your husband.
Those,  all of your kids
Have never complained you ,
Of negligence in any regard,
Not that you love or serve less,
Than they deserve and you are capable of.
Work hard to earn a living,
And comfort not only for yourself,
But for all of them, those depend on you,
Besides serving the old and incapable as volunteer.
Very particular and punctual about paying the bills
 And taxes the State imposes from time to time,
Or regarding renewals of the licences,
Issued to you by the authorities.
Loans taken though by you at times,
But paid in proper instalments ,
And you casted   your votes and participated ,
Well to the norms of the democracy of your state.
You are but they may or may not be social,
Hence shun them as they only come to you ,
To serve their interests and purposes,
To look and care about their bearings only,
And never care the physical and mental ,
State of condition you are going through.

WELCOME HOME

You had never gone
Out of the city for so long,
Away from me uninformed,
Like this time you did
Forced by circumstances,
Inevitable and beyond your control.
I can understand the torment under which
Your heart might have passed,
When the train, carrying you ,
Had left the station without seeing me
Or without saying sweet nothing in my ear.
Your eyes might have searched
Among the crowd on the platform,
Hoping to have a glance ,
At  your loved and desired face.
Physically you were there,
Carrying out your duties, 
Mentally with me talking to me,
All those days all those nights,
At least I think so, as I do this to you,
And my friends call me mad ,"mad lover".
Your job there , are over now
And you are coming back tonight,
To our city, mine and yours
You must be excited ,so am I,
Hence waiting here at the station,
Late night 
To watch you stepping down 
From that enemy train
That had taken you away from me.

फूल और भँवरा (The flower and the bee)

घुँघट में  न छुपाओ इस फूल को 
                             खुशबू  न रोक सकोगे ,
भँवरे  को  पता  हे  पराग  का 
                             पीने  से न रोक सकोगे। 

Do not hide your beautiful face behind the screen,
                   You will be unable to hide the charm-ness from me. 
The bee has already traced the pollen  in side the flower,
                     He  will  surely  take  away  and  make  honey  of  it.

फ़िदा

फ़िदा  है   आप  हमारे  कलाम  से,
ये  दिल आपका गुलाम  हो गया । 
हुस्न  आप  भी क्या  खूब  है,
मेरा कलाम अब आपके नाम हो गया।

बेवफा

आपको  हमसे  दुश्मनी  है 
              वर्ना  क्या  बात  थी 
                            जब  हम  इश्क  के  दरिया  में 
डुबकी  खाते 
            आप  किनारे  खड़े 
                               तमाशा  देखते । 

आपकी मुस्कान

काटने  को दौड़े  वो दरो -दीवार 
                        जो  तर  थे  आपकी  मुस्कान  के  गुंजन  से  कल ,
वैसे  तो  आप  शरमाते  ज्यादा  थे  बोलते  कम ,
                         जब  हुस्न  को  नजरों  से  पिए  जा  रहे  थे 
घडी  भर  बेआवाज़  जिए  जा  रहे   थे  हम। 

तेरी मुश्कान

बला  की  खूबसूरती ओ  हुस्न   तेरी   मुश्कान   में ,
पीने  दो मुझको  अपनी नज़रों से , बहुत प्यास है इस दिबाने   में । 

मेहबूबा

तेरे दीदार की तमन्ना लिए तेरी  गली की  खाक छानते हैँ 
तू मान या न मान सनम हमे हम तुझे अपने मेहबूबा मानते  हैँ 

THE BEGINNING IS NEAR

How vast and great is,
His creation the Universe !
From micro beings,tiny ants to those big stars,
Galaxies, milky-ways all of them
Bear the loving signature,
Of  the great magician God.(1)
Most important and indeed the best
Of His creation of life is we
The human beings, His sweetest magical touch.
How beautifully He arranges in us,
Numerous machines,beauty and youth,
A brain sharp enough to understand His grace.(2)
Unfortunately most of us do not come
Up to His expectations and find
Ourselves among the arrogant evildoers.
Falling prey at the wicked hands of the devil,
Commit envy, jealousy, violence,murder,
Corruption, deceiving,pretension,hypocrisy,
Sexually immorality,greediness and falsehood.(3)
We have made a mess of His garden,
The Eden and its ethics,
Either we hear or do not wish to believe,
But this is the truth that He is coming,
To punish the vile and the wrong,
And to reward the right and the  holy,
Because the beginning  is near.(4)
Should we go up to see this,
The much awaited future of the earth ?
With the help of the ladder,
Of conscience,wisdom and knowledge of the Holy Bible
And the awareness of His precious words
Spoken for the day of the Lord.(5)
Will we change our ways and be virtuous,
And baffle the furnace of  fire ?
To stand and survive among the righteous few
Praying His glory and greatness,
And see a new earth with Him,
Whom we believe and worship in our heart.

She is not behind He

I can go hand in hand,
Matching step by step,
And shoulder to shoulder,
Not behind any one .
In this He dominated earth,
I can also be equal,
Or even better than them,
 The ever ruling males.
Just a matter of wish,
Determination,devotion and dedication
To do any thing and prove to the earth,
That God has done no injustice,
With any of his created species.
Not in terms conquering,
With the charm of beauty and youth only,
But in terms of winning
With might and mind also,
If and when such time ,
Would ever arrive ,
Or situation ever demands.

ITS YOUR TURN

Its raining heavily outside,
Lightning continuously ,
Followed by thunder roaring
 And tearing apart ear screen.
Total darkness here,
Forcing them to cut the power connection,
Thus by cutting apart the connection of friendship,
Between you and me,
Temporarily though,
I know how it feels,
Waiting for someone own,
You made me many times,
Now its your turn.

दोस्त

हम  दोस्ती भी  निभाना  जानते हैं  और  दुश्मनी  भी ,

ये  बात और है की आपने  हमारी दुश्मनी  को  चुना  !
I know to regard and care a relationship well,
It is a different matter that you prefer to be my foe.

DREAMS SHATTERED

Bleeding while pleading for life,
For existence,
Those un-blossomed petals
Dreams of their loving parents
Future of this growing earth.
Were they not yours ?
Were they different from yours ?
Those blank,innocent hearts,
Never dreamed of such exit,
So terrible and violent forced upon them.
Were they a part of your tussle ?
Anywhere in your philosophical or religious duals.
Did they knew them at all ?
Bullets can off-course silence  men,
But had they ever succeed,
To stop a philosophy or belief ?
Can you bear the burden of those corpse,
Over your shoulder
And the the curse of those souls,
On your life till you be on earth ?
Pause and think over it ,
Oh best creation of God,
Name Him as you like,
Cause smile,peace,mutual regard
Universal brotherhood and tolerance on earth,
Love all hate none and
Let Him be proud of you

KICKS

Witnessing the kick
From inside the womb
A few month after germination
An experience so exciting,
If do not believe,
Ask her, an expectant mother.
Smiles,whisperings and joy spreads all over,
The household when  indiscriminate kicks
 Of  the new guest flow out with
 Irrelevant laugh and understandable words.
After all the hardships being taken
All possible measures of care and training
Done to establish as a new and successful man on earth
When the able off spring kicks the old dependant parents

 They do not fall on their bodies
Rather hit the ever loving hearts
Leaving  scars incurable till death.

INTEGRITY

Do not know
What happen to you,
Either you lost your way
Or knowingly left me out
Half way on this road,
The road of love,
And forgotten your commitments;
That you made 
The day we met first
Without fully knowing each other.
On each of my proposal
Of friendship, love and trust
You nodded your head and gave smile.
Recognising our conversation,
You rested your head 
On my shoulder
And looked at my face,
With complete belief and satisfaction
"It get its final asylum,
Till my existence on earth"
"I am at peace,
I rely on your integrity."
We begin to dream 
Of building our world.
But you are no where now, 
Whose integrity is exposed ?
I am still here, 
Standing like statue
Where you left me
Believing that you will
Come back to me one day.

PLEASURE PERSUIT

If our life be winged
As our mind is
We will fly at will
Happily all over the earth
Sky would be the limit.
We will dance and sing
The glory of youth
The glamour of beauty
Bestowed to us by God.
Enjoy each minute
Setting aside all huddles
Of sorrow. pain and grief
And never pause or stop
Our pleasure pursuit.

GOD;S GRACE

Grace me God with your blessings
Once more as ever to your slave
And pardon me for my silliness
As my trust and belief on you
Shaken a bit and worried me temporarily.
A tiny negligible battle was lost 
Regarding success and failure in efforts,
Though it was not a decisive war of life
But shattered my peace and stability.
You know me a highly ambitious man,
Loving  success and fearing to fail
Visualising only present with my small mind,
But not the future you have kept for me.
Forgive me for that unwise,undesirable sin
With your greatness and mercy divine
I know you will dispose the things in time
And you tasted believe and trust of mine.

DREAM GIRL

So valuable are you,
For me be it only for me
As none else on earth
Have a great heart as you
A heart as truthful as mirror
Brighter than gold
Purest as the sun light
Transparent as water.
Though I know
You hesitate of your colour
Still my love for you is such
Deeper than water on bay
As much as stars on sky
Infinite as stretch of universe
Then what dilemma you are in
My sweet glowing black diamond ?
Had you been,
An adorable  beauty queen,
An aspire able expert sex pot,
Of nice structure and colour,
Face like blossomed rose,
Smile resembling sparkling of lightening
Figure thirty-six-twenty six-thirty-six,
But heart as black as coal,
Activities as mysterious as night,
Behaviour rude and blasting like thunder.
Could I have wished,
To have a glance of you ?
Or think a minute of you ?
Could I have loved you ?
Then why do you hesitate
To come open with me,
When my heart admits you to be
My dream queen and me your king,
I your much awaited lover boy.
And you my desired dream girl.

MY QUEEN 1

We both are equals
In one regard
Me habituated to wait for you
You accustomed to make me wait.
You as usual

 Come late and say,
"Sorry I have not seen you."
And me habituated of
Taking it to be true
And  just another unforced error.

You have two familiar excuses,
Of work and of pain
And I can not say
"Do not work" or
"Ignore pain" love first.
But what can I do
I am the king of your heart
And you are the queen of mine
As a king I have to
Listen, believe,honour and care
Of my queen before myself.
