Sky is High
I walk alone on a road that's dusty,
there's no tree tht casts a shadow,
the sun's high and it has mercy nigh,
burning me with all his bravado,
one shoe is torn and on the other feet,
there is none,
the smallest shards are trying to daunt me,
up ahead in the distance i see a tavern
i hear the noise and
I smell the joy
the noise of cups
and the smell of wine
it sends a shiver down my parched throat
and the waitress invites me in to join,
but i say i can't and decline,
because i've got an aim
and the aim is sky,
and the sky's still pretty much high!!.

Tera naam

Raat ghir aayi hai,
Dil me tanhai hai
Mere khwabon ke ujale hain,
Teri yaadon ki parchhai hai,

Tujhse milne ki aarzoo me
guzri hain kai shaamein,
Tujhe paane ki aarzoo me
zindagi bitai hai,

Tere intezar ne sikhaya
hai sabra karna,
Aur tere labon ne meri pyaas
bhi badhai hai,

Kitne bhi toofan aayein,
Ab na bujh payegi,
Dil me jo lau,
Tere naam ki jalai hai.

Rone ka asar dil pe hota hai tarah tarah
kabhi seenchta hai dil ke bageeche
kabhi kaatata hai paudhon ki jad

Kabhi kabhi jee kartaa hai ki
dariya kinaare ja kar baithoon
kabhi kabhi jee karta hai ki
dariya kinaare ja kar baithoon
paani me chaand ki ujli parchhain ko dekhoon
thoda sa sar jhuka ke
uske tanik nazdeek aake
us se aahista se poochhoon
ki ae chaand kya tu bhi akela hai
in tim timaate sitaron ki mehfil me
kya tu bhi tanha hai
agar tujhko hai ek adad saathi ki talaash
tu chhor aasmaan aur aa mere paas
mera saath behtar hai un laakhon sitaaron se
gar yakeen na ho to poochh mere yaaron se.

Nasha
Ghar se nikla ibaadatgaah ko,
par suu-e-maikadaa chala jata hoon mai,
fareb-e-baqaa se to behtar hai do pal ka nasha.

Kafir
Teri gul-fishaan zubaan mere
dil-o-dimaag pe chha gayi,
mere dil-e-gulzaar me,
ek gul-shudaa chingari fir se badhka gayi

Tere gulu band me,
mehak thi gulistaan ki,
teri gul-ruu surat dekhi to mujh kafir ko,
khuda ki yaad aa gayi.

But I Don't Know How

There are many things that
I'll like to say to you
But I don't know how
I always tried to tell you
And I even doing it now
But I don't know how

Perhaps you don't realize it
Or perhaps you do
That no words of tongue or pen
Can express my love for you
And neither can it be
Contained in any solemn vow
But still I'll try to confess it
But I don't know how

I'm figuring out a way
How to let you know
May be you'll say yes
May be it'll be a no
Because I'm afraid of
One tragic scene
Where
A few years down the line
I'm all alone and thinking
It could have been......
