Aimless Restless Evenings

Aimless restless evenings 
lead to peaceless calmless nights
shapeless hopeless mornings follow
that baseless endless afternoons build upon
and this ceaseless cycle of ennui repeats.
Today somewhere a song plays
'Live is life'
Later they'll say I had smiled.

Bhantai Ghazal

BHANTAI GHAZAL

Ek shaq hai ek jo apne ko roj kha raila hai

Time pass hai ki time apun ko kha raila hai

auto ne band bajaa diyeli hai traffic ki 

Aur shareauto full, bus khali jaa raila hai

Malum nahin is sheher ko agla kaun choosega

Jo choosta nahin wo siddhaa khaa raila hai.

Omlet pau ko raste pe laane ke baad punter

hotel mein ja ke vada sambhar kha raila hai

Ye phoolon ki sej bhi solid hoingi nahin?

Apun to jaanu ko fattar per le ke ja raila hai

Beta din bhar gaadi mein babes firaa raila

Aur baap roj local se Marine Lines jaa raila hai

Waise mere dost sab type ke hain lekin

Jo building nahin banaa raila wo film bana raila hai

Waise ye shehar kisi saanp se kam nahin "Quateel"

Apne ko paida kiya abhi roz kha raila hai

Chuim Village

Chuim Village

Taras jaata hoon pedon ki chaaon ko
shahar kha gaya mere chote se gaon ko

phool kaanton waali jhaadiyan hui ghayab
ab to keel hi chhubhti hai paon ko

pardes jaa kar bas gaye yahan ke poot
chhod girte gharon mein maaon ko

khaane ko machli bhi kahin aur se aati hai
koli ne chhod diya pani mein le jana naao ko

Shor ab is qadar badh jaata hai aksar
mann dhoondhtaa hai gair panaahon ko

tera jeevan to yahin guzra hai quateel
kaise chhodega in namkeen hawaaon ko

This is about my village in mumbai, where i lived all my life. and also the problems of all villages within cities.
