Following is the list of the 20 of my favourites I could think of now.I am sure after having posted them I will think of many more.In the collection blow I have tried to capture a variety of emotions.*
Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khyaal aata hai.*
’Doesn’t matter what I am.doesn’t matter what you are.doesn’t matter if I dont deserve you.doesnt matter if you don’t belong to me.doesn’t matter anything.just at times I feel - if only.’
main jaantaa hoon ki tu gair hai magar yunhi.kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khyaal aata hai.
Tere mere sapane ab ek rang hain.*
’Now that I hold your hand in my hands, I have a purpose to live for.every tear in your eyes would be my failure, every smile on your face my achievement’
Tere dukh ab mere, mere sukh ab tere
Tere ye do nainaa, chaa.nd aur suuraj mere.
Hothon se choo lo tum mera geet amar kar do.
Ban jao meet mere, meri preet amar kar do.
’I haven’t won any battles. I haven’t invented any rockets. I have probably done nothing to deserve you more than anyone else, except that I desire you more than anyone else’
jag ne chheenaa mujhse mujhe jo bhee lagaa pyaraa.
sab jeetaa kiye mujhse main har dam hee haraa.
tum haar ke dil apna meri jeet amar kar do.
Ik Roz main Tadap kar is dil ko tham loonga,
mere hasin katil main tera naam loonga*
’You shall not have it this easy. Just a flutter of eyes shall not earn it for you. For all the sleepless nigts you have given me, it’s time I give you a few’
Haasil naa hogi tujhko, aise meri mohabbat
Chahat ki yaar tujhko, deni padegi keemat
Sauda na muft hoga, Main dil ke daam loonga
Thehre hue paani mein kankar na maar sanvari.
Man mein hulchul si mach jayegi baavri.*
’Dont’t stir the stillness in my heart.you will gain nothing from me.nor is there anything that I can gain from you, for, I am not capable of any desire any longer.’
Sab phoolon ke hain deewane, kaanton se dil kaun lagaye.
Bholi sajani main hoon kaanta, kyon apna aanchal uljhaye.
Rab tujhko kaanton se bachaaye.
Yunhi tum mujhse baat karti ho.ya koi pyaar ka irada hai.*
’I enjoy all this. But just.just.is there more to it? No I am not complaining. All this is fine, but just at times I want to hold your hand. I mean its not that.what? why are you laughing? what’s so funny? all right, I know I am dumb!’
ban gayi ho merii sadaa ke liye.yaa mujhe yuu.N hii tum banaatii ho
kahin baahon mein na bhar loon tumko.kyon mere hausale badhaati ho
Intezar Intezar.
Meri Subahon Ko Teri Shaamon Ka.Meri Shaamon Ko Tere Vaadon Ka.
Meri Raaton Ko Tere Khaabon Ka.Meri Neendon Ko Teri Baahon Ka.*
*Intezar.
*’I
have waited for an eternity.the wait seems endles.but the wait will
end and it will end in his arms.Every minute then spent in his arms
will be a reward for every minute I have had to spend waiting for
him.’
Koi Badali Kabhi Is Tarah Aayegi.Pyaas Sadiyon Ki Pal Men Bujh Jaayegi
Tujhako Lauta Ke Meri Aagosh Men.Dekhana Vaqt Ki Nabz Tham Jaaegi
jab bhi koi kangna bole, payal khanak jaye.
Soyi soyi dil ki dhadkan, machal machal jaye.
’women, women, women. So lovely a creation of GOD they are that even desiring them, without ever getting them, is enough to to live for"
kali kali jhoome re bhanwra, agan pe jal jaye patanga.agan pe jal jaye
chanda ko chakor nihare, isi mein sikh paye re paye.isi mein sukh paye
Ae kaash ke hum hosh mein ab aane na payen
bas nagme tere pyaar ke gaate hee jayen*
’This, what is happening today is probably the last time.it will end.end before it can sink.it seems like a dream.may it not end.or may I never wake up.even if that means death.beyond this I desire no life’
Ho bas agar tum humare sanam.
hum to sitaron pe rakh de kadam.
Saara jahan bhool jaaye
Jhonka Hawa Ka Aaj Bhi, Julfein Udaata Hoga Na,
Tera Dupatta Aaj Bhi Tere, Sar Se Sarakta Hoga Na,
Baalon Mein Tere Aaj Bhi, Phool Koi Sajta Hoga Na. *
’I am far from you, thats all that has changed between yesterday and today. I can imagine every little thing you must be doing far away . So can you, isn’t it?’
Kagaz Pe Meri, Tasveer Jaisi Kuch Toh Banati Hogi Na,
Ulat Palat Ke, Dekh Ke Usko Jee Bhar Ke Hansti Hogi Na.
Haste haste aankehin tumhari bhar bhar aati hongi na,
Mujhko dhaka tha dhoop mein jisse, woh aanchal bhigoti hogi na.
Jeevan se bhari teri aankhein majboor karen jeene ke liye.
’Your beuty is devine.you could keep a dying man alive.as you have kept me alive.’
aanchal ka tere hai taar bahut koi chaak jigar seene ke liye
Chehra hai ya chaand khila hai.zulf ghaneri shaam hai kya.
Sagar jaisee ankhon waali yeh to bata tera naam hai*
’love at first sight? Oh come on, I am too grown up for that. But maybe, that is how its meant to be.may be not. But thats what I want.toady, now, at this moment.why judge it?’
yeh armaan hai shor nahin ho khamoshi ke mele hon.
is duniya mein koi nahin ho hum donon hee akele hon.
tere sapne dekh raha hoon aur mere ab kaam hai kya
Zindagi bhar nahin bhoolegi woh barsaat ki raat
ek anjaan hasina se mulakat ki raat.
’Rain made her so much more prettier.or she made that night so memorable? I would not know. I do know that I envied those drops of water that rolled down her cheeks.’
haye woh reshami zulfon se barasta paani.,
phool se gaalon pe rukane ko tarastaa paani.
Pyaar deewana hota hai mastana hota hai
*’People say love hurts, it pains.but who wants to run away from that pain? those who love cherish this pain.’
shama kahe parwaane se pare chala ja.
meri taraha jal jayega yahan nahin aa.
woh nahin sunta usko jal jaana hota hai.
O rabba koi to bataye pyaar hota hai kya.jaisa mujhe ho gaya sabko hota hai kya?*
’I imagined a lot but could never guess that THIS is how love could feel.When it didn’t happen, I thought only I was left out.now that it has happened I wonder if only I have felt this.’
o rabba koi to bataye roop hota hai kya.
jaisa mera khil gaya sabka khilta hai kya?
