Bachee hui yaadein
Kaise guzrega kal
Jab aaj hi
Khatam hone ka naam nahin leta
~ ~
Kehne ke liye baaqi kuchch nahin
Phir bhi
Zubaan ladkhadati hai
~ ~
Jugnu tau din mein bhi chamakte honge
Hum hi sirf andhere mein
Unko pehchan sakte hai
~ ~
Kisi ke liye dua maang lo
Isi bahane
Apne haath nazar aa jaaye
~ ~
Inkaar ka izhaar karna
Bhi badee baat hai
Kuchch log tau na kehne se ghabrate hai
~ ~
Zindagi ka matlab samajhne ke liye
Bohat waqt lagta hai
Isi liye aaj ko hi kinaare pohuncha diya humne
~ ~
Apne aansoon kaheen aur le jaaiye
Mere aankhon mein
Barf pighal raha hai
~ ~
Kaaghaz ke tukdon ko pheink diya
Ab kalam mein bachee siyahi
Ghar dhoondh rahi hai
~ ~
Raaste mein agar aapko
Meri yaad aaye
Waheen par ruk kar usko dafna dena
~ ~
Aap ke liye itna tau mashwara de sakte hai
Ke maqbara bana lena
Aate-jaate logon ko aap yaad reh jaayege

You are in superb form with this one. A hindi transliteration would have added to the sumptuous poetry.

Amazing, simply amazing!

Memories are Non Biodegradeable, wherever and however you bury them, they will remain intact .....you just need to find them ....they may be dusty but will be as edgy .....they just go beneath the surface ...
कैसे कह दूँ के मुझे छोड़ दिया है उसने
बात तो सच है मगर बात है रुस्वाई की
तेरा पहलू तेरे दिल की तरह आबाद रहे
तुझपे गुज़रें न क़यामत शब-ए-तन्हाई की
वो कहीं भी गया लौटा तो मेरे पास आया
बस यही बात है अच्छी मेरे हरजाई की
उसने जलती हुई पेशानी पे जब हाथ रखा
रूह तक आ गई तासीर मसीहाई की
Aap ke liye itna tau mashwara de sakte hai
Ke maqbara bana lena
Aate-jaate logon ko aap yaad reh jaayege
Tombs always fascinate me , they are a 24/7 biography in stone ...buy why do people have them ...wont you just like to "die" as in disappear when you die ....that is why some get burnt to ashes and ensured even their dust merges with flowing water and some stay back to say a story ......Manish
PS:
Shukria...Hindi transliteration as it is available does not satisfy me...dil becomes dali, not even Dali:)

Memories can live as long as they want, but they should just stay away when not wanted.
Liked your description of tombs. They are usually built for the begums and nawabs...and of course the pirs. In fact, Islam does not permit building anything over the grave.
Going by your attitude towards memories, whether dust or marble, the story lives on...

Most fireflies are nocturnal :)
By the way, would you ever live in a space settlement behind the dark side of the moon? Just wonderin'.

16 minutes of musical bliss by the maestro .....

Who is talking about 'most'. We are very picky here...and even if all were nocturnal, it does not mean they do not shine.
Poori potry-shotry ka kabada bana diya...now you will tell me that the light emits form the stomach, which is true!
"By the way, would you ever live in a space settlement behind the dark side of the moon? Just wonderin'"
Are you renting it out? And looking for some noor? Just wonderin'...

Manish:
Thanks for sharing...16 minutes tau 'aa..' ka buffering ho raha tha :)
Why would they shine when they're sleeping? Can't be that hard to find a mate.
When they're sleeping they wouldn't want a mate.
Btw, are you listening to Pink Floyd to empathise with the oldie:)
Pink Floyd? Oldie? What?
'Dark side of the moon' is a Pink Floyd song...of old times...
Ohhhh...right! Will liten to the song later.
The space thingy...was doing some desgining for a cousin, some competition or other(sorry, not renting just yet). Was wondering what type of nutter would want to live up there...so, would you? Not that you're a nutter, of course.
I would...it would take off several kilos in weight...
Hmmm...sorry to pop your bubble, but you wouldn't lose weight at all. There'll be artificial gravity up there, leaving you floatng would give you osteoporosis. In fact, you can even end up feeling heavier!
