Hasi Mazak mein



Aankhein khuli jab meri, ek aisa rang dikha
Saason mein satrangi gubbare phul gaye
Hasi Mazak mein roya tha pehli baar
Hasi Mazak mein sabne has diya!

Kadam badhne jab lage mere, ek aisi manzil dikhi
Raaston mein sange-marmar ka jaal ban gaya
Hasi Mazak mein gir gaya tha pehli baar
Hasi Mazak mein sabne mere koshish ki tareef ki!

Taleem se mujhe jab ishq hua, ek aisi roshni dikhi
Lafzon mein mera carvan chal pada
Hasi Mazak mein shayar ban gaya pehli baar
Hasi Mazak mein sabne ‘irshaad’ bol diya!

Mehboob ne jab mujhe gale lagaya, ek aisa ehsaas hua
Jannat mein zinda jaise pahunch gaya
Hasi Mazak mein usne jab chhod diya khaak mein
Zindagi ka maqsad zinda hua…  Hasi Mazak mein!

Waiting for a miracle

The mirage isn’t real, the moon isn’t near, the hope, probably feeble, and life, certainly terse. A verse, has to be written to tell a story. Because this fairy tale, is getting gory. You wished for a smile, and walked through the isle, you wished for the reveries to come true. A fine friend, you expected. A flawed foe, and a marred knot, you got.

Giving up may not be your forte, and winning may not be mine. Deprived and devoid of love, we live together, waiting for tides to change, waiting for a sign from Above, waiting for the impossible, waiting for a miracle.

Where’s the Middle Ground?

If you are a middle-class man and married recently, there must be an incessant turmoil going on in your mind. You must be thinking, “why me?” There were times when nobody cared what you did, or said. But now, after you are married, everyone questions your decisions and actions (even inactions). You are blamed for posing a “changed” (read,  spoilt ) behaviour and it is basically not you – it's because of YOUR WIFE, who has drastically changed you as per her convenience and necessities, just because you are like clay in your thirties. Anybody can manipulate you and make you their slave, right? That’s the intention of every marriage – to enslave all of “Man” kind. The mother-sister combo tries that for a particular period with all their love. To some extent they succeed without any resistance from you. Because, you too love them back equally for everything they did to you, right from your birth till your marriage. Now that you have become their most prized possession, it is nearl...

What are you?
