Ek chhota sa kaam kr dena! ! ! (Urdu)
Janay walay musafiro mera!
ek chhota sa kaam kr dena
dur basti me rehne walon ko
jaa k mera salam keh dena
or kehna k yeh jo rishte hen
dil k mazboot bandhanon me aseer
gardishen maah o saal ki in ko
ab kbhi bhi na tor paen gi
chahay jitni bhi durian aen
chahaton ko ghata na paen gi
ay musafir tu meri janib se
uss nagar k tamaam logon ko
mere dil ka payam de dena
dur basti me rehne walon ko
jaa k mera salam keh dena...

Enigma! ! !
When sun rays meet
with falling rain
they create
a lovely band
of finest hues;
when dew drops greet
an infant bud,
then at once,
it smiles
and blooms;
but
nothing happens
when drops of tears
fall on heart,
no display
of Nature's laws
we find there,
no fruitful show
like a smiling flower,
gleaming rainbow,

Playmate!
Fortune thinks
We are kids
So She always plays with us
Dodging, blind and guessing games;
See-saw, hurdles, hide-n-seek;
Her swings of different, different nature,
Makes the life as a roller-coaster
All Her games are really strange
Never aught of our own choice;
That is why
She dodges us;
But She is right
'cause we are really foolish kids
Ignorant of her cunning tricks.
In this state
When we yield,
She conquers us and wins...

Fruit of Soil! ! !
Luck is the same
for Man and flower
I think they have
The same birth star.
Flower and man
Man and flower
Start their lives
From lap of soil
Pass through the stages
Of their lives,
Get their nourishment
From the kind soil;
So soil is the mother
Of man and flower
Their start and end
Both are same
Their only difference is

Do not say Goodbye again!
Don't increase
my suffering, pain;
do not say goodbye again!
'I love to see you all the time, '
this says to you
my eyes' rain.
do not say goodbye again!
my eyes have seen the shocking scene
of going away
of many friends...
but calling them, requesting them
was all in vain.
my only Friend!
you ought to know this fact
that on my heart's realm
but you still reign
'i love to see you all the time'
this says to you my eyes' rain...
do not say goodbye again...

Time
Time,
like a step mother-
often hard and often kind-
sometimes fellow, sometimes foe;
it really moves
in a continual flow...
often hits surprising blow;
causes wound and then heals it
when it pleases.
Time,
like a step-mother,
shows indifference to our matters
and scatters
wishful hopes and aspirations,
changes things in different fashions...
Time -the fellow
Time -the foe:
gives despairs
then repairs
we are targets of the Time

My heart is slave of morning scene
serene is the dawn and calm mind...
soft is the grass with drops of dew
clouds are grey on the sky blue
flowers fresh and trees look kind
breeze is never so soft as now
unmindful of all it's jollity and fun
heedless of all, it constantly runs
innocent buds will face it-but how?
birds are singing without any fear
using jargon take God's name
the sun is peeping through its frame
in such moments HE looks near
my heart is slave of morning scene
finer, fragrant, cool and clean...

Anarchy
I want to make it quite clear.....
my heart is not a thoroughfare.
i long for never-never land
for honest people, nice and fair.
no joys i find in shallow world
im fed up of this love-sick air.
wipe out these tears and hold the grief
i don't have too much time to share.
but darkness can't be a horrid thing
sun shines through this mist of despair.
friends oft misinterpret my love
they judge me but by surface layer.
so time is up, so words are spent,
so i intend to go, ....but where?

Life Is What You Make It!
What you feel
What you think
i know that i don't know...
What you like
What you dislike...
i confess that i can't guess...
Yet i find
your stony heart
is rocky hard
To fairies' hymns
And mermaids' songs;
chirping birds;
To gardens' charms and smiling buds;
but i know
this life is tough
And full of pains n spiky thorns...
so close your eyes
And do realize
To make this life:
soft and rosy,

God's Laws Are Free Of Flaws
(ALLAH CREATED THE SEVEN HEAVENS
IN HARMONY.YOU DO NOT SEE
ANY INCONGRUITY
IN THE CREATION OF THE REHMAN.
THEN LOOK AGAIN,
CAN YOU SEE ANY FLAW..? ? ? HOLY VERSE)
The moon belongs to none
it shines but for all-
spring relates to persons
of stations great n small.
Breeze passes all the ways
it never goes on strike.
the sun casts its rays
on kings n clowns alike.
Buds smile to none
not even to bees
