Chanda teri Chandani

Mehsus kar rahi hu jitna, likh na paungi utna, par fir bhi koshish zarur karungi ki dewaana kiya hai aaj, Chanda Teri Chandani ne.

Ehsaas Hai wo Pehle pyar sa, Khuda teri Kudarat se Mohabat ke izhaar ka, Garam Sanso ko chuti thandi fizao ki takrar ka,

Kuch bol na rahi hai kudarat par sunn pa rahi hu ye khamoshi, Rom rom ko jugaa jati ye sheet ki sarghoshi.

Akela pann kabhi itna khushnaseeb na tha, ki pyar tu kabhi mere itne kareeb na tha,

Jhali main dhundh rahi thi tujhe kisi ek roop main, aaj to nazar aa raha hai tu har ek roop main.

Chanda Teri ye kesi hai maaya, Chandani ne teri aaj kehar hai dhaya.

Rait par bikhri hai jo, use apne tan se sparsh kar lu, lekar hathon main apne muthi main band kar lu,
Sheetal Jal par bikhri hai jo, usey pee apne andar samaa lu,
Asmaan main bikhri hai jo, uss chadar tale khud ko chupa lu.
Phulon par padhi oss main, hirey ki tarah ho chamak rahi, to kabhi gori k mang tike par ho Damak rahi.

Komal to tha he mann, par aaj kitna Komal bana diya hai tann,

Band ankhon se tujhe mehsus kar khud se he hoon Sharma rahi, aey ratiya teri aghosh main hu sama rahi.

Thandi hawaon ka kuch aesa hai sparsh, apne pyar ko gale lugane ka jesa hota hai harsh.

Ab likhu or kya? Bas in lamho ko jee lu, Aey chand tere mehkhane se iss chandani ko pee lu.

What Does Happiness Mean ??

Sitting idle on the floor, I wonder what is it? Every one is looking for.

There is an open world around, it’s only that our mind has closed eye's door.
Heart says you have so much, mind says just some more.

We are in a country with season’s great, but still when one comes, for another we wait.
We let pass present thinking of past and for future we wait, by the time we realize this there is nothing left in our hand it’s already too late.

Foreseeing years to come, we forget todays date.
Looking for what others have, we have ignored our on plate.
Rather than thanking God for what we have, cribbing for what we don’t becomes our trait.

World runs behind that single word ‘Happiness ’

How do we define happiness is our fate, for it can be as simple as we want or as difficult as our own minds state.

Ask the hungry, food is his happiness. Ask the thirsty, water is his. To the homeless shelter is bliss.
To the lonely child, parents kiss, job to an unemployed, hope to a destroyed, dream to a sleepless, new chance to a hopeless.

Partner too alone, there is nothing to morn. For ‘one’ is in everyone.
Few are your friends; they help you set new trends.
Rest is your family, with whom you live happily.

In office your colleagues, keep spirits high for the competition that retreats.
Just live that positive attitude, every difficulty it beats.

Have we ever satisfied our mind with our own deeds? Then why blame others for the expectations they couldn’t meet.

We are happy today as we have always been, for at one point or other we have lived most of we have wanted, our only mistake is, all we have is always taken for granted.

If we keep looking higher without ever looking straight, we would keep wandering behind closed doors, and miss the open gate.

Tujh Bin

Pichley pal to Yahi tha, Ab naa Jaane Kaha hai? Tujh Bin Soonaa Soonaa Sa Lugta Ye Jaha Hain.
Tann To mera hai Yaha, Par mann to mera tere waha hai, Sabrr ka mere Ye Zindagi le rahi imtihan Hain.

Waqt Guzarta ja raha hai, Kuch bhi to ruka nahi, Sab kuch waesa he Dikhta hain, par nazariya badal raha hain

Ki Tere bin Phul Khilte hai abb Bhi, par mujhe dekh muskurate Nahin,
Panchi gungunate hai magar geet mujhe koi sunate Nahin,
Nadiya behti hai abb bhi, par kal kal mujhe sunayi deti Nahin.
Shama Jalti to hai, par Roshni Mujhe Deti Nahin.

Yaad Main teri Guzarte hai Din, Sansein Chalti to hai par Jeeti Kaha hu Tujh Bin.
Ab to ye ankhen Lugti hai badi badi, or Sapna Chota, Kash har pal tu Bas mere kareeb hota.

Yaad main teri Sajna Sawarna Bhul gayi, Sunehri un galiyo main chadti Dhul gayi,

Laut aa Ki tujhe Dekhne ko ankhein tarasti Hain, Sapney dekhe hai jo sath unhe jeene ko Machalti Hain.
Waqt Kay sath Rishtey ki neev ko Mazbut Banayenge, Zindagi Ki har seedhi Sath Chadhte Jayenge.
Ek Dusrey ka hath thamey, Pyar Ki shauhrat Kamayenge
