Honeymoon

Driving under the deep blue cool starry night
Love's holding us together with all its might
Shine in our eyes reflecting the moon's excite
Love's magic bathing just everything in sight

Embraced by the warmth of the twinkling light

Relishing the blessed coziness in flickering twilight

Gaze beholds 'n the world seems to take a flight

Walking silently hand in hand our passions ignite

Gazing eyes, waves matching sea's gushing delight

Blush in our heart mirroring sunset's amber light

Dancing to the tunes of heart's unbridled delight

Love takes over stolen moments 'n all's just right

Hearts relishing every minuscule moment's incite

Sharing, musing over every lonely years' plight

Basking in the shadowed sunshine of our inner light

Honeymoon lay suspended in oblivion of twelfth night

Satiating cognizant longings of a Capri's Eagle knight

Dancing to the tunes of our heart's chiming recite

Mesmeric Incandescence of Aurora's rhythmic flight

Orchestrated culmination of the spell of Novena's light

Amour

Always reigning the core my heart
Reminiscent of a dreamy romantic past
Never the one to leave my side
O' love its like eternally being your bride
Loving 'n caring, an incomparable soul apart
Defining virtues of an eagle's relentless part
Magnetic attraction of a dove's heart
Alluring my desires with a fluttering start
Speeding as a white streak in my world eons ago
Capturing my heart's desire 'n being my beau
Apparition of the ideal love in my mind's eye
Returning to me finally with destiny's sigh
Eagle's strength of character is what you hold
Naivete 'n sweetness of a snowy dove to behold 
Holding your ground like a bull overruling every misgiving
Amour, my love, my bestie...
Sharing our lives has made life certainly worth living

सुरूर

राह-ए-दहर पर पैगाम-ए-उल्फत
महराब-ए-जाँ तक आहटों में आते रहे
लफ़्ज़ों में वो जो न फरमा सके
सुरूर-ए-तबस्सुम से महकाते रहे

ज़िन्दगी के दायरों का अफसाना
सुनते सुनाते संग चलते रहे
किस्मत का लिखा न मिटा सके  
सुरूर-ए-इश्क रोज़ छलकाते रहे

गुज़ारिश की थी खुदा से कभी
ताउम्र संग हम कदम मिलाते रहे

मिला है आज वो मुज्तनिब साहिल
सुरूर-ए-तपिश में जिसकी पिघलते रहे 

समय से पहले, क़िस्मत से ज्यादा

हमें कुछ मिले, कभी ये नसीब ही न रहे 

बरस गुज़रे सोज़ साए महसूस करते

सुरूर-ए-अपिश में जिसकी तपते रहे


राह-ए-दहर = Path of Life
पैगाम-ए-उल्फ़त = Messages of Love
सुरूर-ए-तबस्सुम = Intoxicating Smiles
सुरूर-ए-इश्क = Love's Joy
मुज्तनिब साहिल = Evasive Shores
सुरूर-ए-तपिश = Pleasure of Warmth
सोज़ साए = Passionate Apparition
सुरूर-ए-अपिश = Rapture of Passion

The Dice

Life's an intricate maze  
'n destiny rolls the dice
at times coated with sugar
or totally  laced with spice 

Board is set for a number game
winning is by luck or by chance
as life thinks of spinning a cotton yarn 
destiny steps in to take its silken stance 

Life rolls the number one

while destiny scores the elusive six

time 'n again rolls the dice

but destiny plays its own tricks

With no choices but to play along

life rolls the dice for luck to flow

wishing for showers of warm delight

life 'n destiny battle in twilight's glow

We live in a gamble nonetheless

stakes are high 'n life's the price

rare times hope floats 'n love beckons

trick is to close eyes 'n just roll the dice
