a passionate kiss

following other

Where are those immortal lovers, Laila-Majnu and Pyramus-ThisbeNow they are found in books of past lovers.Night, was the best time to bring me the silence and lonelinessEven now it has bright stars and moon to disturb meDon’t you expect, oh dear poet that you will findThe address of your goals in this life boat.

In words and in deeds

In the bistre of the night sky,Come and meet me once again to revive our lost love.

When did you come andWhat do you want, Who are you?My heart says reveal what you feelI fear after knowing this if you leave meI am in a dilemmaWhat should I do, Who are you?Once I have been betrayedAnd have comforted my heart somehowI’m afraid of bloodshed,Why do I show you my heartbreak, Who are…

How much they try to show what they are not,They are confused all the time as to what to perform where.They never allow realities to surface out,It appears as if they have mastered this art since birth,To them this world is mere a stage,where they are performing fine art to earn.For them this Life is…

वह जीवन ऐसा बीता जिसने भगवान न देखा होजैसे मृत्य पड़ा था वो या फिर निद्रा से उठा न होवह पानी जो प्रदूषित हुआ वह जहर समान हुआऔर वो ज़हर जिसने शुद्ध किया वह पानी समान हुआThis is a translation of the poemAny LifetimebyMewlana Jalaluddin Rumi

A ship without anchorIs a body without soul.

life though not began.

When the game is played by G-5!They planned for chopping potatoes elsewhereNow they see their own backyard burning.If you tease the honeybee, it will biteLet them do whatever they want to at their siteDon’t provoke the fools nor try to teach them anythingThey are self-sufficient for self-destructionWait and watch their game, which they tryOne day…

You were never mine, nor to be or will beYou are part of me like a soul in my bodyYou are always playing with my sentimentsLike throwing a pigeon in the airAnd you performed those rituals as ifYou are trying to extinguish the burning grazersYou stayed with me during our intimacy.Like the arrival and departure…
