तेरे दोस्त हैं यहीं

In Response to Karmasura's Poem


अपनी ज़हेन में झांक के देख
तेरे दोस्त हैं यहीं

अपने आप में ढून्द्के देख
तेरे दोस्त हैं यहीं

हवायों में देख
फिजाओं में देख
हर वो आइना, जो टूट चूका है
हर वो पल, जो बीत चूका है
उन लम्हों में देख
तेरे दोस्त हैं यहीं

अपने उम्मीदों से पूछ
अपने दिल की गहराईयों से पूछ
हर वो धड़कन, जो धड़क चूका है
हर वो जाम, जो छलक चूका है
उन खाली पय्मानो से पूछ
तेरे दोस्त हैं यहीं

और अगर फिरभी ना मिले कोई
तो ए यार मेरे
मेरे पास आ, तेरा भुला हुआ वो दोस्त
यहाँ है... यहीं पर है


(The above in English Script)

Apni zahen me jhank ke dekh
Tere dost hain yehin

Apni aap me dhoondke dekh
Tere dost hain yehin

Hawayon me dekh
Phizaon me dekh
Har wo aina, jo tut chuka hai
Har wo pal, jo beet chuka hai
Un lamho me dekh
Tere dost hain yehin

Apne ummedon se pooch
Apne dil ki gehraiyon se pooch
Har wo dharkan, jo dharak chuka hai
Har wo jaam, jo chhalak chuka hai
Un khaali paymaano se pooch
Tere dost hain yehin

Aur agar phirbhi na mile koi
To aye yaar mere
Mere paas aa. Tera bhula hua wo dost
Yahan hai... yehin pe hai!

  2. How about a round of applause... Standing Ovation!

    These lines from Rihanna's song flooded my mind as soon as I read this poem of yours. Even better, I read it just after Karmasura's poem.

    It's beautiful! Touchy! Emotional.. Everything! I could read it over and over again!
