क्यों हम शर्माये?

Posted on by Arun Saini

शाम थी एक हसीं, जब मिले वो दो साये।

सिरहन थी साँसों में, नज़रें न तुम मिला पाए। 

घुमा-फिरा कर बातें, तुम टटोलते रहे जज़्बात मेरे,

पूछ ही लेते हमसे, “क्यों हम शर्माये ?”

When you are seeing someone but it seems to be a long distance relationship.

This is for the times when they catch up after months. Distance keeps them apart but they still want to see each other as soon as they can. The feelings stay ignited with flames going higher than before every time they meet.

And when they do meet finally, these feelings scream within but stay dodged!

रफ़्ता-रफ़्ता

बस तू मेरे साथ,

मेरा एक बस्ता और वो रस्ता।

दूर गांव की टिमटिमाती लालटेन,

सज्दा-ए-इश्क़ हुआ, रफ़्ता-रफ़्ता।

This is for the time when you take a break to kill the monotony and be yourself..When you realise that you meet real you when you disconnect. When you realise that this may be what they call love. Being happy is love. Being yourself is love.. Bow to love..

ख़ाक

ग़ुनाह हुआ, गुस्ताख़ हूँ.

पर कद्र है तेरी, ना तेरे ख़िलाफ़ हूँ.

माना दिल दुखाया है तेरा, पर तू रुस्वा न हो.

शोला हुआ करता था यारी में तेरी, तेरी रुस्वाई से ख़ाक हूँ.

When you make someone, close to you, shed out tears, only to realise your mistake later.

Saying sorry and meaning it can heal the wound. But scars… take their own sweet time.

गुस्ताखियाँ मेरी

गुस्ताख़ होने से मेरे, रुस्वा तो हुआ ज़माना.

पर तन्हाइयों में सिसकियों का सबब, सूझता भी ना था.

कब तक शिरक़त करते लहू-लुहान दिल के जनाज़े में?

जनाज़े तक में, तकब्बुर से कोई चूकता भी ना था.

When you rebel against the world. for the world doesn’t deserve softer and nicer you. It didn’t lend a hand when you were in need. It just didn’t care. Now you shouldn’t too.

Glossary:

सबब = कारण , Cause

शिरक़त = शामिल होना, join

तकब्बुर = अहंकार, arrogance
