All through eternity..

All through eternity
Beauty unveils His exquisite form
in the solitude of nothingness;
He holds a mirror to His Face
and beholds His own beauty.
he is the knower and the known,
the seer and the seen;
No eye but His own
has ever looked upon this Universe.

His every quality finds an expression:
Eternity becomes the verdant field of Time and Space;
Love, the life-giving garden of this world.
Every branch and leaf and fruit
Reveals an aspect of His perfection-
They cypress give hint of His majesty,
The rose gives tidings of His beauty.

Whenever Beauty looks,
Love is also there;
Whenever beauty shows a rosy cheek
Love lights Her fire from that flame.
When beauty dwells in the dark folds of night
Love comes and finds a heart
entangled in tresses.
Beauty and Love are as body and soul.
Beauty is the mine, Love is the diamond.

They have together
since the beginning of time-
Side by side, step by step.

This is love:

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,
to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.
First, to let go of live.
In the end, to take a step without feet;
to regard this world as invisible,
and to disregard what appears to be the self.

Heart, I said, what a gift it has been
to enter this circle of lovers,
to see beyond seeing itself,
to reach and feel within the breast.

who is at my door?

Who is at my door?
He said, "Who is at my door?"
I said, "Your humble servant."
He said, "What business do you have?"
I said, "To greet you, 0 Lord."

He said, "How long will you journey on?"
I said, "Until you stop me."
He said, "How long will you boil in the fire?"
I said, "Until I am pure.

"This is my oath of love.
For the sake of love
I gave up wealth and position."

He said, "You have pleaded your case but you have no witness."
I said, "My tears are my witness;
the pallor of my face is my proof.'

He said, "Your witness has no credibility;
your eyes are too wet to see."
I said, "By the splendor of your justice my eyes are clear and faultless."
He said, "What do you seek?"
I said, "To have you as my constant friend."

He said, "What do you want from me?"
I said, "Your abundant grace."
He said, "Who was your companion on the 'ourney?
I said, "The thought of you,0 King."

He said, "What called you here?"
I said, "The fragrance of your wine."
He said, "What brings you the most fulfillment?"
I said, "The company of the Emperor."

He said, "What do you find there?"
I said, "A hundred miracles."
He said, "Why is the palace deserted?"
I said, "They all fear the thief."

He said, "Who is the thief?"
I said, "The one who keeps me from -you.
He said, "Where is there safety?"
I said, "In service and renunciation."

He said, "What is there to renounce?"
I said, "The hope of salvation."
He said, "Where is there calamity?"
I said, "In the presence of your love."

He said, "How do you benefit from this life?"
I said, "By keeping true to myself

Now it is time for silence.
If I told you about His true essence
You would fly from your self and be gone,
and neither door nor roof could hold you back!

Rumi - In the Arms of the Beloved,

when sitting here....

When sitting here looking at
the stars, talking to them,
how I wished you were here.
When sailing through the valley,
listening to the music of the stream flowing,
how I wished you were here.
when walking on the carpet of autumn leaves,
through the jungle of pines,
how I wished you were here.
When watching the golden rays
coming through trees,
how I wished you were here.

In my heart....

In my heart I have a special place
Where I've put my memories of you
And when we're apart I open it up.
They're still as fresh as the morning dew.
When I get lonely, I close my eyes and imagine
The touch of your skin while holding you near.
If I'm sad and need cheering,
I just need to recall
The smile on your face when I say,
I Love You Dear.
These memories I cherish,
to me they are priceless.
Who could ask for greater glory or fame?
To hold in my heart the memories of you,
A greater treasure no man can lay claim

Every day i look....

Every day I look forward to seeing you
Just to pretend that I don't care.
You are my inspiration and obsession
My life with you I want to share.
I want to look into your beautiful eyes
And tell you what I feel for you.
I want to see your lovely smile
And hope that you will want me too.
I dream of one day holding you in my arms.
That you'll feel my passion,
And I hold the key to your heart.
Your gorgeous face I want to touch.
To hold you close,My dear love.
Yet... there is something I must realize
A trick that life has played on me
Today I must accept
That you don't belong to me.
Days will come and go
And you will never know
My love for youI will always hold.
A day will come
When our different ways we'll go
But life must go on.
One thing I shall promise you
I swear up
on earth and heaven
You'll be with me
In my memories forever.

Ohh!! my love...

Those who don't feel the love
pulling them like a river
Those who don't drink dawn
like a cup of spring water
or take sunset like supper
Those who don't want to change
Let them sleep.
This Love
is beyond the study of theology
that old and trickery and hypocrisy
If you want to improve your mind that way
Sleep on.
I've given up on my brain
I've torn the cloth to shreds
and thrown it away.
If you're not completely naked
wrap your beautiful robe of words around you
and sleep.
---Oh, my love
If you were at the level of my madness,
You would cast away your jewelry,
Sell all your bracelets,
And sleep in my eyes
forever..............

Oh!! beloved..

Oh Beloved,
take me.
Liberate my soul.
Fill me with your love and
release me from the two worlds.
If I set my heart on anything but you
let fire burn me from inside.
Oh Beloved,take away what I want.
Take away what I do.
Take away what I need.
Take away everything
that takes me from you
.~J.Rumi~

~J.Rumi~

Longing is the core of mystery.
Longing itself brings the cure.
The only rule is,
Suffer the pain.
Your desire must be disciplined,
and what you want to happen
in time, sacrificed. ..
~J.Rumi~

Come. come whoever you are;
wanderer. worshipper,
lover of learning....
it does not matter.
ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come even if you have broken your vow
A thousand times.
Come, come yet again come.
~Rumi~

Every time..i close..my eyes....

Every Time I Close My Eyes,
I see Some one Smiling,
Looking at Me With A Little Shy,
Making Me Feel Something
For Her..My Heart Beats went High,
Whenever She Looks at Me,
with That Sweet Innocent Smile
on Her Cute Face....
Every Time I close My Eyes
And see That Lovely Gal,
I want To Write,
Something For Her,
Something Through which I
Can Explain what I Feel For Her...
With This Thought,
One Day I Started To Write
Something For My SweetHeart,
Closed My Eyes,Saw That Lovely Face
And Again Lost..In Her Sweet Smile,
And This Time She was Looking,
More Pretty Than Ever,
More Beautiful, More Sweeter
Than Any Day Before..
She was Just Like An Angel,
Came Down To Meet Me,
I was not in Myself That Time
But Still was Writing Something
And when I opened My Eyes,
I saw That Angel,
And This was The First Time,
I Saw Her with Open Eyes,
And Then Realised That,
I was unable To Put
Her Divine Beauty In My Words,
And Draw Her Face
Instead Of Writing Few Words....

phir chand khila..

Phir chand khila phir rat thami
Phir dil ne kaha hai koi kami

Phir yad k jhonke mehek gaye
Phir pagal arman behek gaye

Phir janat si lagti hai zameen
Phir dil ne kaha hai koi kami

Phir guzre lamhon ki baten
Phir jagi jagi si hain ratain

Phir thehr gayi palkon pe nami
Phir dil ne kaha hai koi kami...

when will you come

I sit here quietly and watch the sun set
Thinking of someone that I've never met
I wonder does she/He think of me too
Needless to say I am thinking of you
Wanting to hold you, to see your face
To take you away to a better place
You feel so right, too good to be true
I just can't stop thinking of you
My friends say that I might regret
Losing my heart to a girl/boy I've not met
I say there is nothing I can do
I cannot help thinking of you
I believe you were made special for me
But wonder if that could possibly be
I'm tired of being so alone and blue
But I always smile when thinking of you......

सब बढ़िया हे

हाँ बड़ा आसानसा लगता है
यूँ जीना कहते रहते हैं
हम अकसर"बढ़िया है
"सच जान करझूठ बोल देते है
औरों सेया ख़ुद से? बढ़िया है
!!"एक बात बोलूं ?
जितनी muhabbat मेने तुमसे की
कोई क्या कर पाएगा...!!?
हाँ तुमअपने हमसफ़र को
अपनी मोहब्बत की
चादर ओढ़ा कररखोगे॥
वो भीतुम्हेमोहब्बत केबिस्तर पर रखेगा॥
शायद फूलों सासज़ा कर रखेगा...
सीने से लगाकररखेगा॥"बढ़िया है॥!!
"हाँ यार"बढ़िया है "
बस कोईये बता दे
अपनी मोहब्बत के
चादर काक्या करूमैं ?
न मैं ओढ़ सकता हूँ॥
न मैं फेंक सकता हूँ॥
मैं उस चादर को
बक्से मे बंदरखता हूँ
उसस बक्से कोदिल की कोठरी में
बंद रखता हूँ ॥यही "बढ़िया है॥
"मुझे अपनेख़ूबसूरत चादरकी
नुमाइशभद्दी लगती है॥
लोग कहते हैं
अगर चादर है

aadte bhi ajeeb hoti he

आदतें भी अज़ीब होती hai
tumhari आदतकाजल लगाना..
.बिन बात के रोना...
मेरी आदत ये कहना"काजल क्यों लगाते हो"
"और अगर लगाते हो..तो क्यो रोते हो ...

"आदतें भी अजीब होती हैं ....
किसी भी काम सेघर से निकलता हूँ
और रास्ते ना जाने कैसे
तुम्हारे घर के सामने पहुँचा देते
आदतें भी अज़ीब होती है ..

आदतें भी अज़ीब होती है ..
अम्मा का फ़ोने आता हैवो कहती है
"Bauaa तुम्हारे लिए रिश्ता देखा है.."
मैं इस बात से खीज़ जाता
उनको कैसे समझाउ
मेरे वाज़ूद का आगाज़ भीतुम थी
और अंत भी तुम हो.
अम्मा समझ नही
मैं समझा नही सकता

आदते भी अज़ीब होती हैं
तुम्हारी छोटी छोटी ग़लतियाँ
जिन पर मुझे ग़ुस्सा आता था
और मेरे नाराज़ होने से पहले
तुम sorry बोल देते थे
मैं तुम्हारी sorryतुम्हारी मुस्कुराहट में
सब कुछ भूल जाता था....

अब भी जब ग़ुस्सा आता है
तुम्हारा वो चेहरा याद करता हूँ
और सब कुछ भूल जाता हूँ
आदतें भी अज़ीब होती हैं

आदतें भी अज़ीब होती हैं
कलम ले करकुछ लिखने बैठता हू
तुम्हारा चेहरा काग़ज़ पेउभर आता
मैं "ख़ूबसूरत" लिख कर
चेहरे में खो जाता हूँ

आदतें भी अज़ीब होती है
जब जीने की वज़हेंकम पड़ती..
तुम्हारी आवाज़ सुन लेता..
फिर- दिल से चिल्ला कर कहता
"सुनो !!वो ख़ुश है , तुम भी ख़ुश हो जाओ.
"मैं कुछ दिन और जी लेता
थोड़ी साँसे और ले लेता..
आदतें भी अज़ीब होती है...

कल रात एक कविता लिखी
आदतें भी अज़ीब होती हैं
दिल किया तुमको सुनाउ
फिर होश आया....
तुम आगे...बहुत आगेनिकल गये हो...
मुझसेतुम्हे फ़ुरसत कहाँ...
आदतें भी अज़ीब होती हैं

saaf mukar jate he

vada karte he he aur saaf mukar jate he,
ek ham jo baat pe mar jate he,

le chala dil hame phir kuchaye-jana ki taraf
lakh chaha tha ki na jaenge,magar jate he

koi itna bhi kisi se na khafa ho ya rab
pas ate he to katra ke nikal jate he

hamko tufano se takrana ata he shafak
aur hote he jo anjam se dar jate he.

vada kar lete he aur saf mukar jate he
ek ham jo fakat bat pe mar jate he.

तेरे प्यार मे

हर रात के बाद आती हे,सुबह
अँधेरा मेरे इंतजार का खत्म होता नही
हर समुन्दर को मिलता हे कोई किनारा
साहिल मेरी कश्ती को मिलता नही

लम्हे कम पड़ जाते हे तुझे सोचते हुए
पर जिस लम्हा तू आये, वो मेरी ज़िंदगी मे नही

गर वो मिला देता हमे, तो क्या मे जी पाता
उन लम्हों के बिना जिनमे चाँद बनकर तू चमकती हे
प्यार के उस भंवर के बिना जिसमे पल डूबती हे मेरी कश्ती
हर एक उस लम्हे के बिना , जिसे जिया हे,
मेने एक एक जिंदगी की तरह ........
तेरे प्यार मे....................

i m only me

I am only me,
that is all that I can be
No more, no less, don't second guess
I love, I laugh, I live and cry,
I've wished at times, that I could die
Some days I'm funny, others I'm not,
sometimes I'm in overdrive and can't stop
I am a loyal and honest friend,
You know that I'll be there until the end
I am a son/brother,
my parents my greatest gift,
The smiles on their faces always give me a lift
I am a romantic, sensual, and passionate too,
to the love of my life,
I'll share this with you
I can be sweet and shy or sassy and bold,
I'm quite a handful,or so I've been told
I am not perfect, I do have my faults,
like when I get scared I put up high walls
Or I'm not as forgiving,
as I'd sometimes like to be,
because when I hurt,
I hurt deeplyMy logic is all my own,
at times misunderstood,
because I don't always do things for my own good
I have many facets,
like a diamond you see...
I am only me.

if you could see inside my soul

If you could see inside my soul
see inside my heart
you would know how I long for you
whenever we're apart
If you could see inside my head
if thoughts were things to see
you would know how I cherish you
how much you mean to me
In all the ways you comfort me
the way you hold me near
the way you know just what to do
to chase away my fear
The sparkle in your beautiful eyes
your smile, laugh, your touch
are just a few of many reasons
I love you so much
Knowing I can talk to you
about any and everything
and knowing together we will get
through whatever life may bring
I could search the whole world over
and this I know is true
I would never find another love
like the love I found with you
Though with each new day, each sunrise
we can't know what's in store
there is one thing I know for sure
each day I love you more
So if you could see inside my head
if thoughts were things to see
you would know I blessed I feel
to have you here with me.. !
