A beautiful poem by Dr. Kumar Viswas

कोई दीवाना कहता है, कोई पागल समझता है !
मगर धरती की बेचैनी को बस बादल समझता है !!
मैं तुझसे दूर कैसा हूँ , तू मुझसे दूर कैसी है !
ये तेरा दिल समझता है या मेरा दिल समझता है !!

मोहब्बत एक एहसासों की पावन सी कहानी है !
कभी कबीरा दीवाना था कभी मीरा दीवानी है !!
यहाँ सब लोग कहते हैं, मेरी आंखों में आँसू हैं !
जो तू समझे तो मोती है, जो ना समझे तो पानी है !!

समंदर पीर का है अन्दर, लेकिन रो नही सकता !
यह आँसू प्यार का मोती है, इसको खो नही सकता !!
मेरी चाहत को दुल्हन बना लेना, मगर सुन ले !
जो मेरा हो नही पाया, वो तेरा हो नही सकता !!

भ्रमर कोई कुमुदनी पर मचल बैठा तो हँगामा
हमारे दिल में कोई ख्वाब पला बैठा तो हँगामा,
अभी तक डूब कर सुनते थे हम किस्सा मुहब्बत का
मैं किस्से को हक़ीक़त में बदल बैठा तो हँगामा !!!

Life Consumed by Slow Decay


This life is consumed by slow decay
All I can do is lie down and pray

Pray to find me a voice
Pray to give me a choice

How long will I chase this path of time
When will I be able to read between the lines

Whose are these voices in my head
Sometimes I feel,I'd rather be better if dead

What is it that's missing in my life
Why is it that I'm punished to survive

These wounds will never heal
This dream is oh! so real !

A Lonely Birthday !


So people wished me, ah most of them! Phone kept buzzing the whole day with SMS's from all my friends. They called me, asked me so what's your wish on your birthday dude! What do you want?..What I want, I want to be with those who are important me and love me, make me feel special, my friends, my family. Everyone called up and said “enjoy with your friend's...have a blast!"...Hello??? “enjoy with your friends"??... Aren't you supposed to be my friend with whom I'm supposed to enjoy...Did I ask a lot from my life? I didn't want a grand party, a huge celebration, just some relaxing time with my friends. Is that too much to ask for? May be it is...I still remember my birthday parties during my school days...Life isn’t unfair...It's actually fair...It gave me happiness so it has every right to snatch them from me and leave me all alone to celebrate a lonely birthday! But still I thank you god for all I have and all I don't!

Time won't let me go


Where did I messed up the things?Did I misstep so that my life's like this now?Why is loneliness and tears only stay with me every night?Why can't I beat this sadness?Does anyone care to think why it's like this?I have things money can buy,at least lots of them which I always wanted to have,but does that make me happy?Does that make me complete?Is this the life I wanted?There were days in my life when people used to feel sad if I wasn't around.I used be the source of laughter for my friends.There were days when we used to take our bicycles and roam around the city,not knowing where exactly to go,not knowing what to do.But they are lost somewhere in time.But I can't escape my fate,I can't go as time won't let me go.I wish I could sit somewhere with my legs crossed,imprison myself in a dark room,seizing my thoughts,stopping myself from thinking what went wrong,who did it,but life won't set me free.I think sleep is my only savior.I feel disgusted about my life,but I have to sleep to see a new tomorrow through this hazel eyes,hoping the sun will shine tomorrow and brighten my life.

It's Hard


It’s hard to satisfy

When you have so many reasons to cry


It’s hard to be afraid

When your emotions are raped


It’s hard to feel the pain

When you lose all what you gain


It’s hard to see the light

When you have lost all your pride


It’s hard to put a smile

When your happiness is so fragile


It’s hard to sleep at night

When there’s nothing in your life that’s right


It’s hard to be alive

When you hardly have a life

Someday


Why is life like this? Yesterday when I came out of my office, instead of taking a cycle rickshaw to my room where I stay alone, I started walking. It was 7 PM of a cold Delhi evening, so was filling the cool breeze on my face, hitting me hard, trying to change my expression. But it failed and I remained sad. Sad for the very existence of myself. Sad for the kind of life I was living. Sad for so many things. I tried to throw away these feelings in air and lit up a cigarette. While the smoke filled the air around me, so many thoughts, some of them weird enough to make me laugh, started filling me from inside. I was still walking, along the side of the road with so many cars, walking by a beautiful park where so many people relaxing in the park. I was afraid to keep my head straight, afraid to see people happy and joyful. I was mostly walking with my head down. Am I the only one left alone in this city? Why’s life like this? People I want close to me are so far away from me.I always wanted to be surrounded by my friends, but they are not there for me. There are so many friends whom I have not even see for may be 8-9 years. There are friends with whom I always want to be with. Is this the life I always wanted? Is this the life for which I have sacrificed so many things? Is this the kind of life for which I am so far away from my family? Why is it that what you want you hardly get and what you get is not exactly what you want. I always try to find things to do to keep myself away from these thoughts but I could never succeed. I love to shop so I shop a lot. I’m a gadget freak and I almost spend my entire salary and keep buying things. All this just to keep myself happy, but still I'm not. This is my life and this is my story. Now things are always like this.Will they ever change?Sudddenly one thing said by one of my colleague started resounding in my head “Kabhi to aisa ho ki yeh darwaza khule aur andar kuch alag ho”...Kash kabhi aisa ho.So I kept walking with this hope...Someday…

In the Valley of Dreams !



In the Valley of Dreams !

A Little Sweet,A Little Sour

The world from a child's eyes
( Wish we could see the world in the same way )


Mera Jahan


A Little Sweet,
A Little Sour
A Little Close Not Too Far
All I Need, All I Need
All I Need Is To Be Free

Chhoo Loon Main
Itna Kareeb
Chal Padun
To Kitne Door
A Little Sweet, A Little Sour…

Chhoo Loon Main Itna Kareeb
Chal Padun To Kitne Door
Sapna Ka Buna Sweater Sa Warm
Safed Baadalon Ke Paar
Mera Jahan

Let Me In Without A Shout
Let Me In I Have A Doubt
Let Me In Without A Shout
Let Me In I Have A Doubt
There Are More,Many More
Many Many Many More Like Me

Akela Nahin Main
Khuli Aankhon Se Neend Mein Chalta
Girta Zyada Kam Sambhalta
Akela Nahin Main
Khuli Aankhon Se Neend Mein Chalta
Girta Zyada Kam Sambhalta

Phir Bhi Na Koi Shaq Na Subha
Nikalega Phir Se Sooraj Jo Dooba
Hairat Ho Sabko Aisa
Ajooba Hai Mera Jahan

Open Eyed How I Run
How I Run To The Other Side
Open Eyed How I Run
How I Run To The Other Side
Then I Glide Like A Bird
I Just Want To Be

Udne Ko Sau Pankh Diye Hai
Chadne Ko Khula Aasmaan
Udne Ko Sau Pankh Diye Hai
Chadne Ko Khula Aasmaan
Mudne Ko Hai Karwat Karwat
Aur Badhne Ko Mera Jahan

Bachpan Ke Din Chaar
Na Aayenge Baar Baar
Jee Le Jee Le Mere Yaar
Jeib Khaali To Udhaar
Jee Zindagi


(From the movie ' Tare Zameen Par' )
