आगाह करता गर कोई

आगाह करता गर कोई
के ऐसी जर्जर भूमि है,
नहीं बोता मैं बीज कभी...

नहीं बोता मैं बीज कभी
कह देता मुझसे गर कोई
के नियति याहां पर रोई है

व्यथा की है दुर्गन्ध यहाँ पर,
समृद्धि अब तक सोयी है

आगाह करता गर कोई
करता मैं कुछ और व्यापार,
मन में कोई मंशा होती...
ललक से ख़ुशी से रहता
नाता, कोई और विकार

ना रोता मैं वीरान राहों पर
चुभती विषमता की धार,
रहता मैं कुंठित इक बुत सा
अचरज करता ये संसार


आगाह करता गर कोई...

विपदा मुझ पर ना आती
याद ना करता जग मेरा शूर,
घायल मैं यूँ पडा ना रहता
राह तकती, ममता कहीं दूर
आचल -के - प्रेम पर, लहू ना होता
ना कांपते होंठ थर थर
मेरी चिता तो तब भी जलती
राख में ना रहते मेरे आखर

Love - The Theory Subject

The most complicated topic to be talked on. What it is no body knows. How to figure it out, no idea. Everybody has his/her own theory about it but which one to follow, again no idea. We all have grown up watching many romantic movies all these years. Each of them brought their own fundas about Love. All this planted a "love ka kida" inside us. Everybody wants to be in love, running here and there in search of the one. When we find somebody, the dilemma begins, 'Is this love?' Our friends are always there to make us fall in love and making a decision on this might not be a tough one, but the path ahead makes it more difficult to decide.

I heard once someone saying "India ek aisa desh hai jaha pyar ki sirf theory ki class hoti hai". You are allowed to know about all the theories of love said till date, but not expected to follow them. If you decide to walk on that path, then boy, watch out... its not going to be easy. But at times the inevitable happes. When we find someone and want to take a step forward, we end up in a situation where so many thing comes into our mind.

Will this work out?
What if something bad happens later?
Will my family agree to this?
Will my family accept her/him?
Will her/his family accept me?

Its like solving a jigsaw puzzle. Each piece have to fit in properly to solve it. All day we think the possible ways forward.

What others think may not be of our concern but what our family thinks that matters. These many years, day and night, they took cares of us, full filled all our needs. Recently I was at home with mom, dad and other relatives and the hot topic of discussion was my marriage. Hearing all their comments I was wondering what would be their reaction if someday I come up and say that I love someone who is not from our the caste/religion. The smile on their faces at that time made me realise that its too much to loose for a girl whom I might have known for say few weeks/months.

So its better to have it their way. May be thats better for everybody. I know things are changing around us. But for time being its better to go the old way. Till Love becomes more than just a theory subject.

Good Night

Raindrops

I tasted them
the Raindrops..
Eyes closed in ecstasy
Tickled my soul
the smell of joy
Looking up at the sky
I saw eternity
and I felt you..

Touched me again..
the raindrops
drenched my soul
I felt naked..
I felt pure..
Blinded I was
and I saw you..
