'Chaubees Ghante' or 'Love Story of a Hooker'

Chaubees Ghante

Jhoothi Raat
Khaali Baatein
Ghair Ki Baahein
Nakli Aahein

Sacchi Subah
Alsaayi Aankhein
Bikhri Zulfein
Kal Ki Khabrein

Garam Dopeher
Thandi Beer-Cans
Puraane Naghme
Nayi Baatein

Simat-ti Shaam
Sehmi Baahein
Pyaar Bhari Nazrein
Khaamosh Baatein

Sulagti Raat
Pighalti Baahein
Dheemi Aaahein
Garm Saasein

Love Story of a Hooker (a rough translation in English)

Untrue Night
Empty Talks
Unknown Arms
Fake Sighs

True Morning
Lazy eyes
Tousled Tresses
Newspaper Headlines

Warm Afternoon
Cold Beer Cans
Old Songs
New Talks

Together evening
Shy Embraces
Love-filled Eyes
Quiet Conversations

Fiery Night
Melting Arms
Quiet Sighs
Warm breaths

Kuchh Acche Palon Ki Ungli Thaame - Happy 2011!

A fresh year is yet another occasion to contemplate and look forward. While doing so. I came up with this. Have a great year ahead!

Kuchh Acche Palon Ki Ungli Thaame

Kucch Acche Palon Ki Ungli Thaame
Hum Mushkil Galiyon Se Nikal Jaate Hain
Zindaki Ke Kai Ghumaavdaar Raaste
Hum Yunhi Tay Kiye Jaate Hain

Kitne Dost Aaye Aur Gaye
Kucch Paas Bhi Reh Gaye
Unke Saath Thoda Hans Bol Kar
Hum Apni Shaamein Saja Lete Hain

Kuch Ghaltiyan Bhi Ki Hain Humne
Aage Bhi Hoti Rahengee, Shaayad
Par Kucch Acche Karmon Ke Sahaare
Unhein Sudhaar Bhi Lenge, Shaayad

Kucch Acche Palon Ki Ungli Thaame
Hum Mushkil Galiyon Se Nikal Jaate Hain
Zindaki Ke Kai Ghumaavdaar Raaste
Hum Yunhi Tay Kiye Jaate Hain

Holding The Finger Of Some Good Moments (a rough translation in English)

Holding the finger of some good moments
I pass through the difficult lanes
That’s how I keep traversing
The long & winding journey of Life

Many friends came and went
Some stayed with me as well
We often talk & laugh together
And our evenings are decorated

I’ve made some mistakes too
Perhaps will make some more
But thanks to some good deeds
I might just rectify ‘em errors

Holding the fingers of good moments
I pass through the difficult lanes
That’s how I keep traversing
The long & winding journey of Life
