कैद में ज़ीस्त

कैद में ज़ीस्त कैद हयात मेरी
गुलाम मेरी कलम कैद है बात मेरी

Dear Chaos

Dear Chaos,
I missed you this year after five consecutive years of togetherness...
but future is open...
There are hopes still...
We will meet...
somewhere beyond time...
if not in this life...
for life is short, the longing isn't!!

Somewhere in Aizawl

I met her in Mizoram University, Aizawl. She was there to sell her vegetables. She kept on saying something in Mizo language. When I asked if I could click her picture, half-understanding, she was confused but smiled profusely at camera. Seeing herself in the camera screen, she was so happy, she wanted to give some of her vegetables to me. She was one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met.

God, Men, and Birds

God loved the birds and invented trees.
Man loved the birds and invented cages.

Heaven!

While we try to teach our children all about life,
Our children teach us what life is all about.

May this year too leave you wanting!!

खोल दे कुफ़्ल उम्र के ये बरस
भुला दे बंदिशें ज़माने की
और फिर भी ना कर सके पूरी
तेरी तमाम हसरतें ऐ दोस्त!
कि अगर पूरा कर लिया तूने
तमाम उम्र का हिसाब
इक बरस में ही
तो तू भी मेरी तरह
खोखला रह जायेगा
