Just Like You

I dreamt yesterday night
That the world has come to know..
About the secret of my life.. 
That I left myself long ago..
In the hands of a girl so cute
But she still has no clue..
A girl who lives down the lane..
A girl who looks..just like you..

The thought gave me a fright..
What If she chose to go..
Now that she knew the secret ..
That i always wanted her to know..
But I decided to let go..
Cos i didn't want to lose..
She's a friend too dear to me..
A girl who looks ..just like you..

My heart throbbed hard as she walked towards me..
And a thousand questions in her eyes i could see..
I chose to answer them all with a smile..
And I realized i was just a smile away..
All these years i was afraid of losing..
Someone whom i had always kept waiting..

I woke up and ran down the lane..
To tell you about this dream insane
The secret of my life i can hold no more..
A secret that now you should know..
A secret of which you have no clue..
"That there is no girl..no girl like you"

I'll wait for you

In my sleep when i cry n scream
When am woken up by a scary dream
When I sit right up and try to think
And the dream flashes back in a blink
I realize the gap is so narrow..
between the horrid dreams n the real sorrow..
"In my life..a life without you.."

With you when I walk along..
I feel so proud.. I feel so strong..
But suddenly when i realize..
you've walked ahead..am left behind..
I scream for you..but you can't hear..
Lost in the lonely streets..i shout in fear..
"Can't live a life..a life without you.."

So i'll wait for you
when my life seems so blue..
And when i don't have a clue..
Should I rest or stay awake..
Or how do I move ahead..
Or how should I lead a life without you..

It rained again

Packing belongings and memories in her bag ..
She wiped away tears from her eyes ..
And as she walked towards the door ..
He stood there to bid her a goodbye ..

But goodbyes don't make things easier..
Nor did it matter to her any longer ..
She decided to skip a hug with her dear ..
As she parted from him after five long years..

But the Heavens had other plans in store ..
The next moment the skies burst into tears with a roar..
As she looked up, getting drenched in rain..
Her heart pushed her for a walk down the memory lane..

She had never held him so close before that day..
They had together danced the night away ..
Then they parted with thousand words in their hearts..
Both tried to express.. but neither could say ..

But as she cursed the skies for the unplanned rain..
Soon she realised that her neck missed her chain..
With a worried heart she went back again..
And inside he waited with a smile and her chain..
"Your heart for the chain" He had traded back then..

Years later things had changed and now it rained again..
She cried harder..her tears masked by the thick drops of rain..
And then as she looked towards her neck she realised..
She needed to go back for something precious left behind..

With a hope in her heart she went back again ..
And inside he waited in tears with her chain..
"Your heart for the chain", his voice choked..
"Traded years back .. and forever", she hugged him and broke..

Watch Out

Sticking to her through sun and shower
Not for a moment did he leave her hand..

He pushed her forward when she lagged behind..
But his love n care..she failed to understand..

When night fell..she parted with him..
For her he was just another thing..
But true love persists.. he waited for a new day..
And for her..his heart kept on throbbing..

For a while

We laughed we talked we loved for a while..
In the road of life we walked many miles..
Together we sang the songs of spring..
She proudly flaunted her finger that adored my ring..

But then came a day when we lost our way..
Thousand words remained in heart..none could I say..

I still sing those songs and I wait for the spring..
I look for her as I play with the ring..
I still stand where she had left with a smile..
For she had said "Wait for me..I will be back in a while" ..

Wrong Cannot Be Right

That night he had to skip his meal, he didn't have a choice ..
In the world designed by fellow humans, he had no voice ..

But as he slept under the open night sky ..
He wondered what separated him from a rich guy ..
Who lived in the same planet, underneath the same sky ..

His doubts were soon answered in a cruel way ..
When in the next moment, death hit him and ran away ..

But his doubts were truly well answered ..
By the countless people who had gathered ..
Not to mourn over his misfortune ..
But to support their 'rich and favorite' actor ..

A blind act of their icon, had made them all go blind ..
None wept for the homeless victim .. but God wept for the disgraced mankind ..

Tu Kahan

Is khushi ke lamhe mein

Jhoom raha sara jahaan
Par is pal me sath mere
Tu kahan .. Tu kahan ..

Ansu bhare ankhon se hum ..
Is din ki rah dekhe the ..
Apni duniya sajane ke ..
Sapne palko pe sajaye the ..

Ab ayi hai wo ghari ..
Jeet liye hai hum ye jahaan ..
Par is pal me sath mere .
Tu kahan .. Tu kahan ..

Har mor pe the tum sath ..
Har kadam pe thame mera hath ..
Pyar karna sikhaya tumne ..
Subah shaam .. din raat ..

Gunj rahi teri awaz ..
Dil me bhi bas tere alfaz ..
ankhein dhunde teri muskan ..
Tu kahan .. Tu kahan ..

Is pal se hai hum khafa ..
Ye jahaan lage suna suna ..
Lauta do wo kal mujhe ..
Tu jaha .. Tu jaha ..

Le chal mujhe apne sath ..
Us pal me jab tum the pas ..
Meri khushi hai bas wahan ..
Tu jaha .. Tu jaha ..
