रूबरू हुए जो हम उनसे ...
लफ़्ज़ों से दिल सोज़ अफ़साने लिखते गए
आप-बीती में पैगाम-ए-उल्फत पढ़ते गए
ख़्वाबों से नए कलाम अर्ज़ करते गए
इरादों से नए अरमान सजाते गए
रूबरू हुए जो हम उनसे ...
लबों पर खामोशियों के तराने छिड़ गए
महक उनकी ज़हन में हम समाते गए
पलकों पर लम्हों के अक्स बनते गए
रुखसार सुर्ख-ए-गुलिस्तान होते गए
रूबरू हुए जो हम उनसे ...
बज़्म-ए-मोहब्बत हम सजाते गए
नगमा-ए-इश्क़ गुनगुनाते गए
कदम ख़ुद-ब-ख़ुद थिरकते चले गए
हम उन में, वो हम में, समाते चले गए
रूबरू हुए जो हम उनसे ...
... हम उन में, वो हम में, समाते चले गए !!
राह-ए-दहर पर चल रहे हैं
ख्यालों का एक हुजूम लिए
कौन हूँ मैं, क्या हूँ, क्यों हूँ
सवालों की एक तूफ़ान लिए
दोराहों पर आ कदम थम जाते हैं
सही-गलत की जद्दोजहद लिए
सच है क्या, क्या नहीं, बेख़बर हैं
चल रहे हैं माया का एक भ्रम लिए
हकीकत-ख़्वाबों की कशमकश है
उमड़ता सैलाब-ए-जज़्बा लिए
राह है कौनसी, मंजिल है कहाँ
वजूद क्या है, ये सोज़ सवाल लिए
निगाहें तलाशती हैं आज भी वो दामन
आगोश-ख़ुशा है जो नफ़स-ए-सुकून लिए
काश के थमे होते कदम उस पड़ाव पर
ठहरा है जो उसी मोड़ पर दास्ताँ-ए-हसरत लिए
हुजूम = Crowd
जद्दोजहद = Dilemma
सैलाब-ए-जज़्बा = Storm of Emotions
सोज़ = Burning
आगोश-ख़ुशा = Waiting to Embrace
नफ़स-ए-सुकून = Peaceful Breath
दास्ताँ-ए-हसरत = Story of Desires
In our lives, we search 'n search
to reach out 'n hold 'n touch
runnin' around in circles lifelong
for the right person to come along
tryin' to find that special someone
who'll make us feel complete 'n one
gettin' into relationships too fast
that somehow were never meant to last
lovin' 'n livin' for people who sway
'n who actually never meant to stay
holdin' painful memories dear
cherishin' mirages with each lonely tear...
In this fruitless quest for the ultimate
we make mistakes to the penultimate
we ignore 'n resist genuine charm
of the one holdin' on 'n meanin' no harm
That special someone's arms
hold you close without qualms
to comfort you in loss 'n fears
to rejoice in your happy tears
patiently listenin' to you prattle
of everything under the sun's kettle
laughin' at your silly jokes
makin' you smile with naughty pokes
givin' you space, yet watching over you
encouragin' you 'n letting you grow
never judgin' you on world's stories
holdin' you close 'n carin' thru' distances...
That special one's the ONE for you
who's simply always believed in YOU
one who's longed to make you feel secure
always regrettin' a decision that was immature
not knowing how to go with the flow
'cos they were the ones who'd let you go
one's who've shared a life time walkin'
sharing happiness 'n pain without talkin'
companionship, passion 'n everythin' in-between
was always theirs to take without a screen
they loved, cherished 'n held you high
concealin' their emotions, hidin' every pained sigh
thinkin', wonderin', 'n finally lettin' go
any chances of happiness, lest, you forego...
Unknowingly, they've never been apart
unacknowledged, yet close to your heart
you've trusted them with closed eyes
reciprocated emotions thru' all times
'n just like they concealed from you
you created a mirage of a happy ado
holding back truth 'n feelings behind a veil
walking directionless on a dark 'n lonely trail
too scared to hold on or to let go
wantin' to cling but bidding a longing adieu
thinkin', wonderin', 'n finally lettin' go
lest, you subvert, their chances of happiness too...
Sittin' across the table
Lookin' into his smiling eyes
I felt an instant connection
'n my soul walked back to me...
Walkin' in a familiar world
Holdin' his hands once again
I felt his love flow through
'n my soul walked back to me...
Sharin' emotions forever known
Etchin' my heart with his love
I felt his lasting devotion
'n my soul walked back to me...
Stealin' moments from life n time
Givin' me cherished memories
I felt his desires' warmth
'n my soul walked back to me...
Holdin' me in his loving embrace
Drenchin' my parched heart
I felt myself breathe again
'n my soul walked back to me...
Turnin' back life's clock
Renewin' our forlorn ties
I felt us surrender to destiny
'n my soul walked back to me...
'n my soul walked back to me!!
The perfect picture of a summery delight
saw us both entranced our love's charms
Our suppressed emotions took a flight
enraptured world lay in circle of your arms
Looking into each other's eyes
world like always ceased to exist
We danced in rhythm like lost times
tunes of desire playing in our midst
The twinkle 'n smile that I saw reflected
was something I'd missed all along
Brightening my emptiness as we lay connected
our hearts tuned in like an everlasting love song
I'd never thought we'd hear intimacy's chime
walking different paths through life's misty frost
It was an Birthday etched in life 'n time
with rebirth of love we'd thought long lost
Electrifying connect 'tween created beauty to endow
making me regret all moments we'd lost in flight
Every speck in time we've shared is worth a bow
a dancing tribute from loving hearts of incandescent light
Living in this world of lies
Forgot love lived in your smile 'n eyes
Running from pillar to post
I realized I'd missed you the most
Seems life's a circle of kinds
Just a glance reflected our minds
Craving for hugs from faked charms
Finally found warmth in each others arms
For all the years we have lost
Wonder who won at whose cost
Sparks have forever simmered
with love that's always shimmered
Its tearing me apart to lose you now
Life's always differed in its plans somehow
Wonder till when we'll run in circles
Facing heat of time or breathing icicles
Wish life 'n time realize our desires
I've realized none can quench our fires
Struggling for love 'n life year on year
We've finally found what was always near
All I can feel 'n say, now 'n time 'n again
It'll now break me to lose you once again
I know we will always remain each others
None's been like us 'n there can be no others
Pleading to you every moment again 'n again
Don't vanish with life 'n time once again,
"Don't go, don't go my sweetheart"
Don't go away, searing my bleeding heart!!
